    To investigate gasocrine signaling, there is a critical need to identify gasoreceptors for the essential gasotransmitters like O2. Based on existing scientific literature, I propose that heme-based O2 sensors, featuring diverse signaling domains across genera, should be explicitly designated as O2 gasoreceptors. Acknowledging that O2 gasoreceptors are likely to belong to multiple protein classes with diverse signaling domains and pathways will facilitate a comprehensive search for O2 gasoreceptors in all organisms and across every cell type. This approach will broaden the investigation beyond specialized tissues or cells, encompassing a systemic exploration.
