This seems suspicious. Never have I heard of a particle called a prolino, much less an elementary particle, none of which have yet been found. The first sentence goes "A prolino is a conjectured elementary particle, being the theorized atomic constituents of electrons". Richard Feynman did not think up an elementary particle. It is self-contradictory, too. It cannot be antimatter and a constituent of an electron at the same time, since an electron is matter. JakeGHz 18:03, 30 Mar 2005 (UTC)

Prolino Deletion[edit]

I've done some research and a prolino actually exists in chem as an abbreviation for proline nitrous oxide. In that case, it would be proliNO. My suggestion is to reform this article to make it conform to the chemical meaning. JakeGHz 15:37, 31 Mar 2005 (UTC)

PROLINO refers to the anionic complex of Proline and Nitric Oxide, it is not a Nitrous oxide complex.

Disputed[edit]

This article seems highly dubious to me.

Per source 2 (Saavedra), proline + NO + sodium methoxide are used in the reaction giving ProliNO, not ProliNO itself. Given that sodium methoxide is highly caustic, it seems unlikely that it is part of a mixture being investigated for clinical use.
The same source says ProliNO has two units of NO per proline, as opposed to one as given in the info box of this article. I can't figure out where the second NO is supposed to be.

All in all, I think ProliNO is a compound different from nitrosoproline, but I don't know what its structure is. --ἀνυπόδητος (talk) 14:04, 5 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Pure confusion[edit]

PROLI/NO is different compound, than nitrosoproline. Nitrosoproline does NOT have any medical use. https://pubchem.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/compound/Proli_no https://pubchem.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/compound/n-Nitrosoproline 88.115.35.1 (talk) 03:40, 18 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
