Nitric oxide (NO):
•1987 discovered that NO was the previously described endothelial- derived relaxing factor (EDRF)
•Colorless, odorless gas, slightly soluble in water
•Half-life is a few seconds
•NO promotes both vascular and bronchial dilation in the respiratory system
•Facilitates coordinated ciliary beating
•Serves as a neurotransmitter for NANC neurons in the bronchial wall
Drs. Robert F. Furchgott,Louis Ignarro & Ferid Murad1998 Nobel Prize inPhysiology or Medicine
Biology of NO:
Formed by action of nitric oxide synthase (NOS) on L-arginine
3 isoforms-
•type I or neuronal NOS, NOS-1, nNOS•type II or inducible NOS, NOS-2, iNOS•type III or constitutive NOS, NOS-3, cNOS, eNOS
nNOS and eNOS produce low amounts of NO
iNOS can generate large amounts of NO
Stronger affinity for hemoglobin than CO•up to 1,000 times more
Biosynthesis of NO:Under basal conditions:
NO continually being produced by eNOS (calcium dependent)Activity of iNOS is very low (calcium independent)
Stimulation of eNOS:Shear forces (increase in blood flow) flow-dependent NO formationEndothelial receptor ligands (vasoactive substances)
receptor-stimulated NO formation
Stimulation of iNOS:Inflammation by bacterial endotoxins, and cytokines and interleukinsAmount of NO produced may be 1,000-fold greater than that produced by eNOS

Mechanism of action:Mediated via cGMP
Produced by: •Vascular endothelial cells•Airway neurons •Airway inflammatory cells•Airway epithelial cells
Vascular Effects of NO:
•Direct vasodilation•Anti-thrombotic activity•Anti-inflammatory
Nitric oxide, nitrogen monoxide
N=O
Clinical use of FENO:
• Adjuvant diagnostic tool
• Non-invasive inflammatory biomarker
• Observe response to anti-inflammatory therapy
• Monitor treatment compliance
• Detect “occult” airway inflammation
• Predict potential asthma exacerbations
• Guide step-down treatment of asthma
Online measurement:
“…exhalations where the expirate is continuously sampled by the NO analyzer, and the resultant NO profile versus time or exhaled volume…is captured and displayed in real time…” (ATS)
FENO
= fractional concentration of exhaled NO
Expressed as ppb (equivalent to nl/L)
NIOX® Flex, Aerocrine, New Providence, NJ
Offline measurement:
“…fractional NO concentration in exhalate from a vital capacity collection…” (ATS)
FENO
= fractional concentration of NO
Expressed as ppb (equivalent to nl/L)
ATS/ERS Recommendations for standardized procedures for the online and offlinemeasurement of exhaled lower respiratory nitric oxide and nasal nitric oxide, 2005.Am J Respir Crit Care Med 171:912-930, 2005.
•Ambient NO at the time of test should be <5 ppb
•Inhale to TLC, over 2-3 seconds, through mouth avoiding nasal inspiration
•Exclude nasal NO by exhaling against a resistance: 5 cmH2O
•Recommended expiratory flow rate: 50 mL/sec or 0.05 L/sec (+10%)
•The duration of exhalation must be sufficient (>6 sec) to obtain plateau
•3 second NO plateau: <10% or 1 ppb change
•Single-breath NO profile: exhaled NO vs time plot
•Suboptimal exhalations: identified and discarded
•3 repeated with 2 reproducible (+10%) plateau values
•30 sec relaxed tidal breathing between exhalations
•Mean of 2 NO concentration expressed in ppb

•Ambient NO at the time of test should be <20 ppb
•Nose clips are not required
•Inhale orally to TLC and than immediately perform a slow VC
•Exclude nasal NO by exhaling against a resistance: 5 cmH2O
•Recommended expiratory flow rate: 350 mL/sec or 0.35 L/sec (+10%)
•Reservoir for collection must be nonreactive and relatively impermeable
•Reservoir bag should be stable for at least 48 hours
•NO concentration expressed FENO,0.35
ATS recommendations for offline measurement of FENO
Technical factors that affect FENO values:
Method of collection•online vs. offline•nasal nitric oxide•expiratory flow rate
Time of day•circadian rhythm
Age/sex •no consistent relationship
Food and beverages•nitrate-containing food•Avoid for 1 hour
Medications•Oral corticosteroids
Respiratory tract infections•Wait until recovery
Exercise•Avoid for 1 hour

Conclusions
• Marker of airway inflammation
• Multiple factors contribute to variation in FENO values
• Should be used in conjunction with other pulmonary function tests
• Monitor treatment compliance
• Research tool useful tool clinical practice
