NO-based mechanisms for preconditioning in ischemia/reperfusion injury. Accumulating evidence suggests a role for NO/SNO in estrogen and adrenergic receptor–mediated and statin-induced preconditioning in ischemia/reperfusion injury. Protein S-nitrosylation, resulting from increased NOS expression and activity and altered subcellular localization, appears to be a principal mediator of these effects.
