Vacuolation in cellular organelles within the central nervous system is a common manifestation of oxidative injury. We found that the spongiform vacuolation observed in PVC-211 murine leukemia virus (PVC-MuLV) neurodegeneration was associated with oxidative damage as detected by immunoreactivity for
Sepsis or peritonitis impairs diaphragmatic contractility and endurance capacity. Peroxynitrite, a powerful oxidant formed by superoxide and nitric oxide, has been implicated in the pathogenesis. Propofol scavenges this reactive molecule. The authors conducted the current study to evaluate whether propofol

Peroxynitrite (ONOO(-)), a toxic product of the free radicals nitric oxide and superoxide, has been implicated in the pathogenesis of CNS inflammatory diseases, including multiple sclerosis and its animal correlate experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE). In this study we have assessed
Luminal nitric oxide (NO) is greatly increased in the colon of patients with collagenous and ulcerative colitis. To define the source and consequence of enhanced NO production we have studied expression of NO synthase (NOS) isoforms and nitrotyrosine in mucosal
