Studies indicate that endotoxin (LPS) causes intestinal injury, increases inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) activity, leads to increased NO production, and promotes bacterial translocation (BT). To investigate the mechanism by which LPS causes gut injury and to test the hypothesis

Peroxynitrite formation has been demonstrated during experimental allergic encephalomyelitis (EAE). Furthermore, peroxynitrite has been identified as an activator of poly(ADP-ribose) synthetase (PARS), an enzyme implicated in neurotoxicity. In the current study, we examined the role of PARS activation in the

Peroxynitrite, a cytotoxic oxidant formed from nitric oxide (NO) and superoxide, induces DNA strand breakage, which activates the nuclear enzyme poly(ADP-ribose) synthase (PARS; EC 2.4.2.30). The cellular function of PARS was determined in fibroblast lines from PARS knockout animals (PARS-/-)

Poly(ADP-ribosylation), primarily via poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase-1 (PARP-1), is a pluripotent cellular process important for maintenance of genomic integrity and RNA transcription in cells. However, during conditions of oxidative stress and energy depletion, poly(ADP-ribosylation) paradoxically contributes to mitochondrial failure and cell death.

4-Hydroxynonenal (HNE) is one of the most abundant and reactive aldehydes of lipid peroxidation products and exerts various effects on intracellular and extracellular signalling cascades. We have previously shown that HNE at low concentrations could be considered as an important
