DNA damage and reactive nitrogen species are barriers to Vibrio cholerae colonization of the infant mouse intestine. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Pathogens, 2011
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

Adventitious Root Formation in Plants: The Implication of Hydrogen Peroxide and Nitric Oxide

open access: yesAntioxidants, 2023
Adventitious root formation is defined as the formation of new roots on above-ground plant parts and is considered crucial for the survival of a plant under harsh environmental conditions (i.e., flooding, salt stress, and other abiotic stresses) as well ...

DNA Checkpoint and Repair Factors Are Nuclear Sensors for Intracellular Organelle Stresses-Inflammations and Cancers Can Have High Genomic Risks. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Under inflammatory conditions, inflammatory cells release reactive oxygen species (ROS) and reactive nitrogen species (RNS) which cause DNA damage. If not appropriately repaired, DNA damage leads to gene mutations and genomic instability.

Functional indicators of response mechanisms to nitrogen deposition, ozone, and their interaction in two Mediterranean tree species [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The effects of nitrogen (N) deposition, tropospheric ozone (O3) and their interaction were investigated in two Mediterranean tree species, Fraxinus ornus L. (deciduous) and Quercus ilex L.

Evidence for detrimental cross interactions between reactive oxygen and nitrogen species in Leber's hereditary optic neuropathy cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Here we have collected evidence suggesting that chronic changes in the NO homeostasis and the rise of reactive oxygen species bioavailability can contribute to cell dysfunction in Leber’s hereditary optic neuropathy (LHON) patients.We report that ...

Reaction Cycles of Halogen Species in the Immune Defense: Implications for Human Health and Diseases and the Pathology and Treatment of COVID-19

open access: yesCells, 2020
There is no vaccine or specific antiviral treatment for COVID-19, which is causing a global pandemic. One current focus is drug repurposing research, but those drugs have limited therapeutic efficacies and known adverse effects. The pathology of COVID-19

Decadal changes in summertime reactive oxidized nitrogen and surface ozone over the Southeast United States [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Widespread efforts to abate ozone (O3) smog have significantly reduced emissions of nitrogen oxides (NOx) over the past 2 decades in the Southeast US, a place heavily influenced by both anthropogenic and biogenic emissions.

Biologically Relevant Small Radicals

open access: yesCHIMIA, 2008
Biologically relevant small radicals are at the focus of the working group 4 (WG4) of the COST Action CM0603 (Free Radicals in Chemical Biology, CHEMBIORADICAL). This article surveys the areas of research being undertaken by the partners in WG4.

Juggling with reactive oxygen species and antioxidant defense system – A coping mechanism under salt stress

open access: yesPlant Stress, 2022
Even under optimal conditions many metabolic processes produce ROS like superoxide anion (O2.-), hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) and hydroxyl radicals (OH⋅), particularly in chloroplast and mitochondria.

Ozone and alkyl nitrate formation from the Deepwater Horizon oil spill atmospheric emissions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Ozone (O3), alkyl nitrates (RONO2), and other photochemical products were formed in the atmosphere downwind from the Deepwater Horizon (DWH) oil spill by photochemical reactions of evaporating hydrocarbons with NOx (=NO+NO2) emissions from spill response
