English term or phrase: mediates
In technical or biochemical terms, in many instances, Nitric Oxide ***mediates*** its biological efects by activating guanylyl cyclase and increasing cyclic GMP synthesis from GTP.

"mediates" = mitiga

I would like to confirm if the meaning here is "mitiga" sus efectos biológicos... Agradezco la ayuda de ustedes, químicos expertos en la materia. Mil gracias.
