Association of the Tyrosine/Nitrotyrosine pathway with death or ICU admission within 30 days for patients with community acquired pneumonia
Abstract Background Oxidative stress is a modifiable risk-factor in infection causing damage to human cells. As an adaptive response, cells catabolize Tyrosine to 3-Nitrotyrosine (Tyr-NO2) by nitrosylation. We investigated whether a more efficient reduction in oxidative stress, mirrored by a lowerin...
