Journal ArticleDOI
Peroxynitrite, a cloaked oxidant formed by nitric oxide and superoxide.
TL;DR: In theory, activation could involve (1) heterolysis to OH- and NO2+ (delta rxn Gzero' = 13 kcal/mol at pH 7) or (2) homolysis
Journal ArticleDOI
Inactivation of alpha 1-proteinase inhibitor by peroxynitrite.
Juan J. Moreno,William A. Pryor +1 more
TL;DR: The results suggest that peroxynitrite is capable of oxidizing methionine residues in proteins without the involvement of the hydroxyl radical or nitrogen dioxide.
Journal ArticleDOI
Release of iron from ferritin by aqueous extracts of cigarette smoke.
TL;DR: Observations suggest that cigarette smoke components react directly with these amino acid residues in ferritin, which could alter iron metabolism in the lungs of chronic smokers and contribute to the increase in the total oxidative burden on the lung of smokers.
