N-tert-butyl-α-phenylnitrone (PBN) is a commonly used free-radical spin trap.
N-tert-butyl-α-phenylnitrone (PBN) is a commonly used free-radical spin trap. It has been shown to reduce the number of emboli-induced cerebral microinfarctions in the rabbit cortex and prevent neoplasia by its radical scavenging activity and its ability to inhibit cyclooxygenase-2 activity. Reported to inhibit the induction of nitric oxide synthase (iNOS), thereby preventing the overproduction of nitric oxide (NO). PBN in a dose of 100 mg/kg i.p. reduced necrosis of the substantia nigra, pars reticulate in flurothyl-induced status epilepticus in rats. It protects against some types of post-trauma epileptogenic events in an animal model of epilepsy. The lethal dose of PBN in rats was found to be approximately 100 mg/100 g body weight (0.564 mmol/100Å g).

Progression of genotype-specific oral cancer leads to senescence of cancer-associated fibroblasts and is mediated by oxidative stress and TGF-beta

The purpose of this study was to determine the pathological importance of oxidative stress-induced injurious processes in chagasic heart dysfunction. Trypanosoma cruzi-induced inflammatory pathology and a feedback cycle of mitochondrial dysfunction and oxidative stress may contribute to Chagas disease. Sprague-Dawley

The free radical theory of aging proposes that reactive oxygen species (ROS) cause oxidative damage over the lifetime of the subject. It is the cumulative and potentially increasing amount of accumulated damage that accounts for the dysfunctions and pathologies seen
