Cyclic guanosine monophosphate
====================================

Landing page for cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP).

cGMP is an integral messenger, for pathways involved with vascular smooth muscle relaxation.

This model is derived from `Yang et. al <https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/15833804/>`_
