Selective, Oxygen-Tunable, and Metal-Free Functionalization of Polyethylene Through Dual-Mode Nitrosation and Carbonylation. [PDF]
A metal‐free nitrosation process enables direct C–H functionalization of polyethylene (PE) with high selectivity, producing either oxime‐ or carbonyl‐functionalized polymers. Using t‐BuONO under visible light or thermal conditions, the process operates in both lab‐scale and industrial settings.

Quercetin Enhances Gastric Nitric Oxide Formation and Potentiates the Antihypertensive Effects of Oral Nitrite Administration. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Oral nitrite supplementation enhances nitric oxide (NO) bioavailability and lowers blood pressure. Quercetin may facilitate the reduction of nitrite to NO. However, the combined effects of nitrite and Quercetin on gastric NO formation and blood pressure have not been explored.

Multifaceted Effects of a Multiple Nitric Oxide Photoreleaser and its Photoproducts on Amyloid-β Aggregation. [PDF]
A blue light‐activatable NO photodonor sequentially releases two NO molecules accompanied by two stable photoproducts, showing differentiated effects on the β‐amyloid aggregation. Aberrant aggregation of β‐amyloid (Aβ) peptides into insoluble fibrils is recognized as one of the hallmarks of Alzheimer's disease (AD).

The key role of nitric oxide in hypoxia: hypoxic vasodilation and energy supply-demand matching [PDF]
Significance: a mismatch between energy supply and demand induces tissue hypoxia with the potential to cause cell death and organ failure. Whenever arterial oxygen concentration is reduced, increases in blood flow - 'hypoxic vasodilation' - occur in an ...

Urinary levels of N-nitroso compounds in relation to risk of gastric cancer: Findings from the Shanghai cohort study [PDF]
Background: N-Nitroso compounds are thought to play a significant role in the development of gastric cancer. Epidemiological data, however, are sparse in examining the associations between biomarkers of exposure to N-nitroso compounds and the risk of ...

Nitrosylation of Myoglobin and Nitrosation of Cysteine by Nitrite in a Model System Simulating Meat Curing [PDF]
Demand is growing for meat products cured without the addition of sodium nitrite. Instead of the direct addition of nitrite to meat in formulation, nitrite is supplied by bacterial reduction of natural nitrate often added as vegetable juice/powder ...

Detection of reactive oxygen and nitrogen species by electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) technique [PDF]
During the last decade there has been growing interest in physical-chemical oxidation processes and the behavior of free radicals in living systems. Radicals are known as intermediate species in a variety of biochemical reactions.

S-nitrosation of proteins relevant to Alzheimer's disease during early stages of neurodegeneration [PDF]
Protein S-nitrosation (SNO-protein), the nitric oxide-mediated posttranslational modification of cysteine thiols, is an important regulatory mechanism of protein function in both physiological and pathological pathways.
