The influence of extracellular superoxide on iron redox chemistry and bioavailability to aquatic microorganisms

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2012
Superoxide, the one-electron reduced form of dioxygen, is produced in the extracellular milieu of aquatic microbes through a range of abiotic chemical processes and also by microbes themselves.

The chemistry of peroxynitrite, a biological toxin

open access: yesQuímica Nova, 1998
Oxyradicals play a tole in several diseases. While for several decades the hydroxyl radical - produced via the Fenton reaction - has been considered the species that initiates oxyradical damage, new findings suggest that much of this damage can be ...

RvD2 mitigates TNFɑ-Induced mitochondrial reactive oxygen species through NRF2 signaling in placental trophoblasts

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology
IntroductionHypertensive disorders of pregnancy (HDP) are marked by elevated levels of TNFα, which increases reactive oxygen species (ROS) and disrupts metabolism of trophoblasts. Resolvin D2 (RvD2), an omega‐3 fatty acid-derived lipid mediator, is known

Superoxide and superoxide dismutase in pulmonary hypoxic vasoconstriction [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
Superoxide is known to cause vascular damage and can consume protective NO that maintains a low pulmonary pressure. There is evidence suggesting that hypoxia upregulates NADH/NADPH oxidase and xanthine oxidase in the smooth muscle and endothelial cells of the pulmonary artery, increasing superoxide production.

Metabolismo oxidativo de heterófilos de avestruzes jovens Oxidative metabolism by heterophils from young ostriches

open access: yesCiência Rural, 2009
Foi avaliada a hipótese que, à semelhança dos neutrófilos de mamíferos, a produção de superóxido pelos heterófilos de avestruzes está associada com a maturidade funcional dessas células. Foram utilizados 20 avestruzes de ambos os sexos, divididos em dois
