N.O. post. something to comment on.
Quoted from Karl-Franzens-University Graz:
"Nitric oxide (NO) is a key modulator of cellular Ca(2+) signalling and a determinant of mitochondrial function. Here, we demonstrate that NO governs capacitative Ca(2+) entry (CCE) into HEK293 cells by impairment of mitochondrial Ca(2+) handling....
"Moreover, buffering of intracellular Ca(2+) by use of N,N'-[1,2-ethanediylbis(oxy-2,1-phenylene)] bis [N-[25-[(acetyloxy) methoxy]-2-oxoethyl]]-, bis[(acetyloxy)methyl] ester (BAPTA/AM) eliminated inhibition of CCE by NO, indicating that the observed inhibitory effects are based on an intracellular, Ca(2+) dependent-regulatory process. 6. Our data demonstrate that NO effectively inhibits CCE cells by cGMP-independent suppression of mitochondrial function. We suggest disruption of local Ca(2+) handling by mitochondria as a key mechanism of NO induced suppression of CCE."
This means that by taking NO, the movement of calcium into the mitochondria (an absolutely necessary mineral) is impaired, and can decrease the performance of mitochondria. Mitochondria are essentially the powerhouse of energy, providing almost all energy required for humans to function. For the lifter, this can lead to decreased performance in the gym, and decreased recovery.
