Pterin-6-aldehyde, Xanthine Oxidase Inhibitor and Superoxide Scavenger, Directly React with Peroxynitrite
The effect of pterin-6-aldehyde (P6A), xanthine oxidase inhibitor and superoxide scavenger, on the production of nitrotyrosine as a footprint of tyrosine nitration by peroxynitrite, was compared with that of uric acid, a peroxynitrite scavenger. The amounts of tyrosine, P6A and nitrotyrosine were qu...
