a(MESH:"Salivary Glands") increases rxn(reactants(a(CHEBI:nitrate)), products(a(CHEBI:nitrite))) View Subject | View Object

Studies have shown that nitrate concentrates in saliva and is reduced to nitrite by mouth commensal bacterial nitrate reductase and then nitrite is reduced to NO under acidic conditions of the stomach. 28,51,52 PubMed:27308950

a(MESH:Hemeproteins) increases rxn(reactants(a(CHEBI:nitrite)), products(a(CHEBI:"nitric oxide"))) View Subject | View Object

Several studies have shown that nitrite is reduced to NO by several heme proteins under hypoxic conditions, providing an eNOS-independent source of NO in the vasculature.28,47,48. PubMed:27308950
