[reaction: see text] The reduction of benzo-1,2,3,4-tetrazine 1,3-dioxides (BTDOs) 1 with Na(2)S(2)O(4) or SnCl(2) is suggested to proceed via intermediate N-nitrosobenzotriazoles 3 to afford benzotriazoles 2. The (15)N-labeling experiments exhibit that the N-3 atom of the tetrazine ring is incorporated into the nitroso group of 3 that is ultimately released into solution. It is possible that the biological activity of BTDOs is due to their ability to release nitrosating species, i.e., N-nitrosotriazol 3 or HNO(2), in the course of reduction.

Lipid-lowering drugs such as gemfibrozil (GFB) are widely used and highly biologically active, contributing to their persistence in wastewater and subsequent release into aquatic ecosystems. However, the potential impacts and toxic mechanisms of these emerging pollutants on non-target marine organisms, particularly keystone bivalves like Mytilus edulis, remain poorly understood. To address this knowledge gap, we investigated the effects of environmentally relevant concentrations of GFB (25 µg l) on oxidative, nitrosative, and dicarbonyl stress in M.

Sulfate radical (SO) advanced oxidation processes (SR-AOPs) are efficient for degrading a broad spectrum of contaminants. This study demonstrates that the existence of environmentally relevant concentrations of nitrite (NO) can lead to the formation of N-nitrosodimethylamine (NDMA), a probable human carcinogen, when heat activated peroxydisulfate (heat/PDS) is applied to address contaminants with dimethylamine moieties, such as tetracyclines. NO effectively competes with tetracyclines for SO at a high second-order reaction rate constant of 8.

Nitric oxide (NO) holds promise for wound healing due to its antimicrobial properties and role in promoting vasodilation and tissue regeneration. The local delivery of NO to target cells or organs offers significant potential in numerous biomedical applications, especially when NO donors are integrated into nontoxic viscous matrices. This study presents the development of robust cellulose nanofibril (CNF) hydrogels designed to control the release of nitric oxide (NO) generated from a NO-donor molecule (-nitrosoglutathione, GSNO) obtained from the nitrosation of its precursor molecule glutathione (GSH).

The incorporation of nitric oxide (NO) into polymeric matrices minimizes degradation and facilitates controlled release. This optimization increases the field of application of NO, in dressings, food protective films, and implant devices, among others. This work presents an economical and easy way to manufacture bioactive nitric oxide-releasing polymer (BioNOR-P) and evaluates its bactericidal and antioxidant activity (AA), mechanical behavior, cytotoxicity, and genotoxicity, seeking future use in different applications.

Vascular aging is associated with the development of cardiovascular complications, in which endothelial cell senescence (ES) may play a critical role. Nitric oxide (NO) prevents human ES through inhibition of oxidative stress, and inflammatory signaling by mechanisms yet to be elucidated. Endothelial cells undergo an irreversible growth arrest and alter their functional state after a finite number of divisions, a phenomenon called replicative senescence.
