Abstract
Nitric oxide is a molecule recently found to have many unexpected roles in the nervous system. One of these is in neurodegeneration and enzymes that make nitric oxide have been found to be required for certain types of nerve fibre degeneration. We are studying whether a gene that reduces nerve fibre degeneration acts through reducing levels of nitric oxide.
