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 ...

Supersulfide biology and translational medicine for disease control
Abstract For decades, the major focus of redox biology has been oxygen, the most abundant element on Earth. Molecular oxygen functions as the final electron acceptor in the mitochondrial respiratory chain, contributing to energy production in aerobic organisms. In addition, oxygen‐derived reactive oxygen species including hydrogen peroxide and nitrogen

Red Blood Cell Peroxynitrite Causes Endothelial Dysfunction in Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus via Arginase
We recently showed that red blood cells (RBCs) from patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM-RBCs) induce endothelial dysfunction through a mechanism involving arginase I and reactive oxygen species.

Superoxide and peroxynitrite inatherosclerosis. [PDF]
The role of reactive oxygen species in the vascular pathology associated with atherosclerosis was examined by testing the hypothesis that impaired vascular reactivity results from the reaction of nitric oxide (.NO) with superoxide (O2-), yielding the oxidant peroxynitrite (ONOO-).

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.

Elderberries as a potential supplement to improve vascular function in a SARS‐CoV‐2 environment
Elderberry extract (EE) can target both viral infection and vascular dysfunction which could be a useful strategy to reduce morbidity and mortality relating to COVID‐19. Literature looks promising and builds a suggestion for investigating EE against COVID‐19. However, further in vitro and in vivo research is required to fully evaluate elderberries as a

Bioactive food components and their inhibitory actions in multiple platelet pathways
A comprehensive overview of platelet multifunctional roles in CVD and other diseases and the effects of food components' modulatory effects are described. Abstract In addition to hemostasis and thrombosis, blood platelets are involved in various processes such as inflammation, infection, immunobiology, cancer metastasis, wound repair and angiogenesis ...

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.

The role of the host—Neutrophil biology
Abstract Neutrophilic polymorphonuclear leukocytes (neutrophils) are myeloid cells packed with lysosomal granules (hence also called granulocytes) that contain a formidable antimicrobial arsenal. They are terminally differentiated cells that play a critical role in acute and chronic inflammation, as well as in the resolution of inflammation and wound ...
