Previous studies in beta(s) sickle cell mice demonstrated renal immunostaining for nitrotyrosine, which is putative evidence of peroxynitrite (ONOO(-)) formation. ONOO(-) is known to nitrate tyrosine residues of various enzymes, thereby interfering with phosphorylation and inactivating them. The present study

Patients with severe burn and/or smoke inhalation injury suffer both systemic and pulmonary vascular hyperpermeability. We hypothesized that nitric oxide (NO) produced by inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) plays a role in the changes in microvascular permeability seen with this

Recent studies on smoke inhalation injury have been focused on nitric oxide (NO) as an essential factor of progressive lung injury. We studied the effects of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) inhibition on inhalation injury in sheep. Sheep (n =

Reactive oxygen and nitrogen species participate in the inflammatory process during meningitis. Among them, superoxide, nitric oxide (NO), and their reaction product peroxynitrite exert cytotoxic effects. Mercaptoethylguanidine (MEG) exerts beneficial effects in in vivo inflammatory conditions by scavenging peroxynitrite and

We investigated the early events involved in loss of mitochondrial membrane potential (DeltaPsi(mt)) leading to apoptosis in cells derived from patients with acute lymphocytic leukemia after exposure to phenolic antioxidants. Using the nitric oxide binding dye diaminofluorescein-FM diacetate, we found
