“…Free radicals may originate from: (1) gases or tar in cigarette smoke, (2) circulating or in situ-activated macrophages and neutrophils, (3) endogenous sources of reactive oxygen species such as uncoupled eNOS and the mitochondrial electron transport chain. The free radicals, such as superoxide, reacted with NO, this not only reduced the utilization of NO, but also produced peroxide nitrite, which further enhanced oxidative stress in cells [14,15].…”
