Journal ArticleDOI

A comprehensive evaluation of catalase-like activity of different classes of redox-active therapeutics.

TL;DR: The authors' studies provide substantial evidence that Mn(III) N-alkylpyridylporphyrins couple with H2O2 in actions other than catalase-related, and demonstrate the importance of knowing the type and magnitude of reactions that may occur with this intriguing and key species of redoxome.
Journal ArticleDOI

Reaction between Peroxynitrite and Hydrogen Peroxide: Formation of Oxygen and Slowing of Peroxynitrite Decomposition

TL;DR: It is proposed that an activated intermediate of peroxynitrous acid is responsible for hydrogen peroxide oxidation at acidic pH, while at more alkaline pH the formation of a stabilizing complex between hydrogenperoxide and transperoxyn itrite anion is involved.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mitochondrial calcium overload triggers complement-dependent superoxide-mediated programmed cell death in Trypanosoma cruzi

TL;DR: In this article, the authors established mitochondrial Ca 2+ overload as the link between complement deposition and the observed changes in mitochondrial physiology and the triggering of the epimastigote stage of Trypanosoma cruzi.
