Switching Reactive Oxygen Species into Reactive Nitrogen Species by Photocleaved O2‐Released Nanoplatforms Favors Hypoxic Tumor Repression [PDF]
In various reactive oxygen species (ROS)‐based antitumor approaches (e.g., photodynamic therapy), increasing attentions are made to improve ROS level, but the short lifetime that is another decisive hurdle of ROS‐based antitumor outcomes is not even ...

Physiological and pathophysiological role of reactive oxygen species and reactive nitrogen species in the kidney [PDF]
SummaryEnd‐stage renal disease is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. The prevalence of the disease and the number of patients who receive renal replacement therapy are expected to increase in the next decade. Accumulating evidence suggests that chronic hypoxia in the tubulointerstitium represents the final common pathway to end‐stage

Demyelination: The Role of Reactive Oxygen and Nitrogen Species [PDF]
This review summarises the role that reactive oxygen and nitrogen species play in demyelination, such as that occurring in the inflammatory demyelinating disorders multiple sclerosis and Guillain‐Barré syndrome. The concentrations of reactive oxygen and nitrogen species (e.g.

Modification of DNA structure by reactive nitrogen species as a result of 2-methoxyestradiol–induced neuronal nitric oxide synthase uncoupling in metastatic osteosarcoma cells [PDF]
2-methoxyestradiol (2-ME) is a physiological anticancer compound, metabolite of 17β-estradiol. Previously, our group evidenced that from mechanistic point of view one of anticancer mechanisms of action of 2-ME is specific induction and nuclear hijacking ...

Effects of aluminum on metabolism of reactive oxygen species and reactive nitrogen species in root tips of different Eucalyptus species [PDF]
On acidified soil, the growth of Eucalyptus is seriously restricted by aluminum (Al) stress. Therefore, breeding Eucalyptus species with excellent Al tolerance, developing the genetic potential of species, and improving tolerance to Al stress are ...

Reactive nitrogen species in host–bacterial interactions [PDF]
Reactive nitrogen species play diverse and essential roles in host-pathogen interactions. Here, we review selected recent discoveries regarding nitric oxide (NO) in host defense and the pathogenesis of infection, mechanisms of bacterial NO resistance, production of NO by human macrophages, NO-based antimicrobial therapeutics and NO interactions with ...

Reactive Nitrogen in the Tropical Troposphere [PDF]
The aim of this project was to calibrate a thermal-decomposition chemiluminescence (TD-Chem) instrument, capable of measuring the composition of the reactive nitrogen pool at the Cape Verde Atmospheric Observatory (CVAO) in the remote tropical ...

DNA damage and reactive nitrogen species are barriers to Vibrio cholerae colonization of the infant mouse intestine. [PDF]
Ingested Vibrio cholerae pass through the stomach and colonize the small intestines of its host. Here, we show that V. cholerae requires at least two types of DNA repair systems to efficiently compete for colonization of the infant mouse intestine. These
