Sonochemical formation of peroxynitrite in water: Impact of ultrasonic frequency and power
There is a lack of literature on peroxynitrite formation due to sonolysis of aerated water. In this work, the impact of sonication parameters, frequency and power, on ultrasonic peroxynitrite production in aerated alkaline water was investigated ...

Glutathione peroxidase 1 (GPX1) is a crucial antioxidant enzyme that prevented the harmful accumulation of intra-cellular hydrogen peroxide. GPX1 might contribute in limiting cochlear damages associated with aging or acoustic overexposure, but the ...

The diffusion-limited reaction of nitric oxide (NO) and superoxide (O2−) produces peroxynitrite (ONOO−), a biological oxidant that has been implicated in a number of pathological conditions, including neurodegenerative disorders.

The protective role of Wnt3a in peroxynitrite-induced damage of cochlear hair cells in vitro
Objective: To investigate the effect of peroxynitrite on the cultured cochlear hair cells of C57BL/6 P3 mice in vitro as well as the role of Wnt3a, as an activator of the canonical Wnt signaling pathway, underlying the action of such an oxidative stress.

Protection against peroxynitrite [PDF]
Peroxynitrite formed in vivo from superoxide and nitric oxide can mediate oxidation, nitration, or nitrosation reactions, leading to impaired function, toxicity, and alterations in signaling pathways. Protection against peroxynitrite is important for defense of normal tissue, especially during inflammation.

Peroxynitrite decomposition catalysts: Therapeutics for peroxynitrite-mediated pathology [PDF]
Inflamed tissue is often characterized by the production of NO and superoxide. These radicals react at diffusion-limited rates to form the powerful oxidant peroxynitrite (PN). When protonated, PN decomposes into either nitrate or reactive intermediates capable of mediating tissue damage by oxidation of protein, lipid, and nucleic acid.

FeTPPS, a Peroxynitrite Decomposition Catalyst, Ameliorates Nitrosative Stress in Human Spermatozoa
Excessive levels of reactive nitrogen species (RNS), such as peroxynitrite, promote nitrosative stress, which is an important cause of impaired sperm function.

Nitric oxide alleviates cadmium- but not arsenic-induced damages in rice roots [PDF]
Nitric oxide (NO) has signalling roles in plant stress responses. Cadmium (Cd) and arsenic (As) soil pollutants alter plant development, mainly the root-system, by increasing NO-content, triggering reactive oxygen species (ROS), and forming peroxynitrite

The Labile Iron Pool Reacts Rapidly and Catalytically with Peroxynitrite
While investigating peroxynitrite-dependent oxidation in murine RAW 264.7 macrophage cells, we observed that removal of the Labile Iron Pool (LIP) by chelation increases the intracellular oxidation of the fluorescent indicator H2DCF, so we concluded that
