Journal ArticleDOI

Analysis of nitrate, nitrite, and [15N]nitrate in biological fluids

TL;DR: A new automated system for the analysis of nitrate via reduction with a high-pressure cadmium column that automatically eliminates interference from other compounds normally present in urine and other biological fluids is described.
Journal ArticleDOI

DNA damage and mutation in human cells exposed to nitric oxide in vitro.

TL;DR: Experiments in which NO was added to intact human cells and to aerobic solutions of DNA, RNA, guanine, or adenine produced a 40- to 50-fold increase in hypoxanthine and xanthine in cellular DNA, which are believed to account for the mutagenicity of nitric oxide toward bacteria and mammalian cells.
Journal ArticleDOI

A model for gastric cancer epidemiology.

TL;DR: It is postulated that one major subtype of gastric carcinoma ("intestinal type") is the end- result of a series of mutations and cell transformation begun in the first decade of life, which allows the cell to become autonomous and invade other tissues.
Journal ArticleDOI

Nitrate biosynthesis in man.

TL;DR: Nitrate metabolism was investigated in long-term metabolic studies in healthy young men under conditions of constant low ingestion, and showed that the source of the excess nitrate in urine was the endogenous biosynthesis of nitrate, rather than the emptying of a body pool.
Journal ArticleDOI

Reactive nitrogen species in the chemical biology of inflammation.

TL;DR: This review will focus on recent advances in understanding of the protein and DNA damage caused by reactive nitrogen species produced by macrophages and neutrophils, with emphasis on nitric oxide, nitrous anhydride, peroxynitrite, and nitrogen dioxide radical.
