The evolutionary origins of peroxynitrite signalling [PDF]
Peroxynitrite is a reactive intermediate formed in vivo through uncatalysed reaction of superoxide and nitric oxide radicals. Despite significant interest in detecting peroxynitrite in vivo and understanding its production, little attention has been given to the evolutionary origins of peroxynitrite signalling.

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-).

Reaction of Astaxanthin with Peroxynitrite [PDF]
The in vitro reactivities of astaxanthin toward peroxynitrite were investigated and the reaction products after scavenging with peroxynitrite were analyzed in order to determine the complete mechanism of this reaction. A series of carotenoids, 13-apo-astaxanthinone (1), 12'-apo-15'-nitroastaxanthinal (2), 12'-apo-astaxanthinal (3), 10'-apo ...

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 ...

Potential Benefits of Peroxynitrite [PDF]
Peroxynitrite (PN) is generated by the reaction of nitric oxide (NO) and superoxide in one of the most rapid reactions in biology. Studies have reported that PN is a cytotoxic molecule that contributes to vascular injury in a number of disease states. However, it has become apparent that PN has beneficial effects including vasodilation, inhibition of ...

The effect of pterin-6-aldehyde (P6A), xanthine oxidase inhibitor and superoxide scavenger, on the production of nitrotyrosine as a footprint of tyrosine nitration by peroxynitrite, was compared with that of uric acid, a peroxynitrite scavenger.

Reaction of Retinol with Peroxynitrite
The reactivity of retinol with peroxynitrite, which is a strong oxidant and has been reported to induce several biological damages, was investigated. 13-cis-14-nitroretinol (1), 13-trans-14-nitroretinol (2), 13-apo-beta-carotenone (3), retinal (4), 11,14-epoxyretinol (5), and 11,15-epoxyretinol (6) were identified as reaction products of retinol with ...

Cyclic Hydroxylamines as Monitors of Peroxynitrite and Superoxide-Revisited
There is a considerable need for methods that allow quantitative determination in vitro and in vivo of transient oxidative species such as peroxynitrite (ONOOH/ONOO−) and superoxide (HO2•/O2•−).

Degradation of Hyaluronan by Peroxynitrite
Treatment of high-molecular-weight hyaluronan (HA) with peroxynitrite at neutral pH (ONOO-/ONOOH) results in altered mobility on agarose gel electrophoresis, as well as reduced limiting viscosity number. Both effects are consistent with a reduction in HA molecular weight.
