Lipid membranes and lipid-rich organelles are targets of peroxynitrite (ONOO), a highly reactive species generated under nitrative stress. We report a membrane-localized phospholipid () that allows the detection of ONOO in diverse lipid environments: biomimetic vesicles, mammalian cell compartments, and within the lung lining. and POPC self-assemble to membrane vesicles that fluorogenically and selectively respond to ONOO. , delivered through lipid nanoparticles, allowed for ONOO detection in the endoplasmic reticulum upon cytokine-induced nitrative stress in live mammalian cells. It also responded to ONOO within lung tissue murine models upon acute lung injury. We observed nitrative stress around bronchioles in precision cut lung slices exposed to nitrogen mustard and in pulmonary macrophages following intratracheal bleomycin challenge. Results showed that functions specifically toward iNOS, a key enzyme modulating nitrative stress, and offers significant advantages over its hydrophilic analog in terms of localization and signal generation.

Diethyl nitrosamine-induces neurobehavioral deficit, oxido-nitrosative stress in rats' brain: a neuroprotective role of diphenyl diselenide.

Diethylnitrosamine (DEN), a common dietary carcinogen, is associated with neurotoxicity in humans and animals. This study investigated the neuroprotective effects of diphenyl diselenide (DPDS) against DEN-induced neurotoxicity in male Albino Wistar rats (n = 40). Rats were randomly distributed into cohorts and treated as follows: vehicle control (corn oil 2 mL/kg; gavage), DPDS-only (5 mg/kg; gavage) and DEN-only (200 mg/kg; single dose i.

Aconitase activities in the different subcellular compartments can be selectively inactivated by different genetic defects, iron depletion, and oxidative or nitrative stress. Aconitase contains a [4Fe-4S] cluster that is essential for substrate coordination and catalysis.

These neurons were also shown to become more vulnerable to oxidative and nitrative stress after L444P expression. The latter paralleled neuronal formation of reactive oxygen species and led to a pronounced accumulation of nitrated α-synuclein.

The amyloid aggregation of hIAPP and the increased level of oxidative stress are closely related to the occurrence and development of type 2 diabetes (T2D). Protein tyrosine nitration is a common post-translational modification under oxidative stress conditions. We previously found that tyrosine nitrated hIAPP (3-NT-hIAPP) has higher cytotoxicity than wild type hIAPP.

Fetal growth restriction (FGR) impacts approximately 10 % of all pregnancies worldwide and is associated with major adverse effects on fetal health in both the short- and long-term [1]. FGR most commonly arises as a result of impaired placentation, occurring in up to 60 % of cases in developed countries [2]. This narrative review outlines the impact of defective placentation on the placenta, focusing on redox imbalance, how this leads to placental oxidative and nitrative stress, and the implications of these stressors on placental nutrient transfer, premature replicative senescence, and trophoblast cell death.
