abstract：:Although nitric oxide (NO) is produced by discrete groups of neurons in the brain, participation of NO in premotor structures directly involved in reflexively evoked, sensory-motor functions has not been demonstrated so far. We now show that NO is a physiological mediator in the generation of a specific motor response...
