We have identified a novel function for a member of the transient receptor potential (TRP) protein super-family, TRPM2, in prostate cancer cell proliferation. TRPM2 encodes a non-selective cation-permeable ion channel. We found that selectively knock

Nitric oxide (NO) is a product of nitric oxide synthase (NOS) activity and is recognized as the main mediator of penile erection by induction of cavernosal smooth muscle relaxation. Although excessive NO can be generated via inducible NOS activation
