Nitrosative stress induced cytotoxicity in Giardia intestinalis [PDF]
To investigate the antigiardial properties of the nitrosating agents: sodium nitrite, sodium nitroprusside and Roussin's black salt.Use of confocal laser scanning microscopy and flow cytometry indicated permeabilization of the plasma membrane to the anionic fluorophore, DiBAC4(3) [bis(1,3-dibutylbarbituric acid) trimethine oxonol].

Doxorubicin-induced oxidative and nitrosative stress: Mitochondrial connexin 43 is at the crossroads
Oxidative stress is widely accepted as a key factor of doxorubicin (Doxo)-induced cardiotoxicity. There is evidence to indicate that nitrosative stress is involved in this process, and that Doxo interacts by amplifying cell damage. Mitochondrial connexin

Oxidative and Nitrosative Stress and Fibrogenic Response [PDF]
Uncontrolled production of collagen I is the main feature of liver fibrosis. Following a fibrogenic stimulus such as alcohol, hepatic stellate cells (HSC) transform into an activated collagen-producing cell. In alcoholic liver disease, numerous changes in gene expression are associated with HSC activation, including the induction of several ...

Mycobacterium tuberculosis has the ability to survive inside macrophages under acid-nitrosative stress. M. tuberculosis Rv1685c and its ortholog in M. smegmatis, MSMEG_3765, are induced on exposure to acid-nitrosative stress.

Manganese import protects Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium against nitrosative stress.
Nitric oxide (NO˙) is a radical molecule produced by mammalian phagocytic cells as part of the innate immune response to bacterial pathogens. It exerts its antimicrobial activity in part by impairing the function of metalloproteins, particularly those ...

S-Glutathionylation of metallothioneins by nitrosative/oxidative stress
Cystein residues within metallothionein (MT) structure have been shown to be particularly prone to S-nitrosylation. The objective of this study was to examine the possibility that MTs undergo S-glutathionylation under nitrosative/oxidative stress. MT from rabbit liver was treated with different concentrations of GSNO, diamide plus GSH or H(2)O(2) plus ...
