We have studied the interaction of 3-nitrotyrosine with peroxynitrite using three different methods; chemiluminescence, spectrophotometry and HPLC. Peroxynitrite-induced luminol or lucigenin chemiluminescence were significantly decreased by 3-nitrotyrosine, in concentration-dependent manners. The intensity of the peroxynitrite spectrum was also markedly reduced in the presence of 3-nitrotyrosine in the spectrophometric assay. However, there was no attenuation of the 3-nitrotyrosine signal in the HPLC assay after mixing with peroxynitrite. The interaction of 3-nitrotyrosine and hypochlorous acid (HOCl) was also studied via the chemiluminescence assay, where the HOCl-induced responses were markedly inhibited by 3-nitrotyrosine. These results suggest that caution should be taken when studying the levels or interactions of 3-nitrotyrosine.

Background: Nitric oxide (NO) is involved in synaptic transmission and cerebral plasticity, playing a role in the memory process. However, in states of brain inflammation, hypoxia, or ischemia, there is induction of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) expression by astrocytes and pyramidal cells in the brain. Under conditions of chronic activation, there is a decoupling of iNOS dimers, leading to a massive generation of superoxide anion and peroxynitrite, O2.

Owing to the excellent stability, anticancer activity and immunogenicity, peroxynitrite (ONOO) has been gained enormous interests in cancer therapy. Nevertheless, precise delivery and control release of ONOO in tumors remains a big challenge. Herein, B16F10 cancer cell membrane/liposome hybrid membrane (CM-Lip) based biomimetic nanodrug with high-efficient tumor-homing and NIR-II laser controlled ONOO boost properties was designed for melanoma treatment.

Monitoring biomarker levels in body fluids is of great importance in clinical diagnosis. Herein, a robust 3D ZnMOF, {[Zn(BTPB)(bib)(μ-OH)]·2HO}, was fabricated based on the ligands of 1,4-bis(2,4,6-tricarboxylpyrid-5-yl)benzene (HBTPB) and 1,4-bis(imidazol-1-yl)benzene (bib). On the basis of its stable architecture and intrinsic luminescence, ZnMOF demonstrated remarkable potential as a bifunctional luminescent sensor for selective and sensitive detecting the biomarkers of 3-nitrotyrosine (3-NT) and 5-hydroxyindoleacetic acid (5-HIAA) in water and body fluids by employing distinct "turn-off" and "turn-on" responses.

There is growing evidence that NADPH oxidase 4 (Nox4) in hepatocytes contributes to liver inflammation and fibrosis during the development of metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH). However, how Nox4 is regulated and leads to liver pathogenesis is unclear. Our previous studies showed that the cytosolic protein SH3 domain-containing Ysc84-like 1 (SH3YL1) regulates Nox4 activity.

Background/aims: Crohn's disease (CD) is a major subtype of chronic relapsing inflammatory gastrointestinal disorders. In this study, we assessed the possible contributions of serum oxidative/nitrosative stress and dynamic thiol/disulfide homeostasis to CD pathogenesis.

Materials And Methods: Patients with active CD (A-CD) at onset (n = 38), CD patients in the remission (R-CD) (n = 38), and healthy controls (n = 38) were prospectively included in this study.
