Aerobic Cytotoxicity of Aromatic <i>N-</i>Oxides: The Role of NAD(P)H:Quinone Oxidoreductase (NQO1)
Derivatives of tirapazamine and other heteroaromatic <i>N-</i>oxides (ArN→O) exhibit tumoricidal, antibacterial, and antiprotozoal activities, which are typically attributed to bioreductive activation and free radical generation. In this work, we aimed to clarify the role of NAD(P)H:quin...
