“…In neurodegenerative disorders, this imbalance in metal ion homeostasis can induce OS. If the levels of superoxide radicals are high and if there is an increased availability of nitric oxide, radical-radical recombination results in the formation of peroxynitrite, a highly reactive product with a half life of < 1 s that can lead to nitration of biomolecules, proteins, and lipids (38). Hence, markers of OS, levels of antioxidant enzymes, and elevation of cellular stress response proteins reflect the level of oxidative damage in, and fate of, the cell.…”

“…The first hypothesis states that mSOD1 proteins are or become misfolded and consequently oligomerize to form intracellular aggregates (106,387), which also include other essential proteins that are, therefore, no longer available to perform their correct function. The second-the oxidative damage hypothesis-proposes that toxicity is caused by aberrant chemistry of the active Cu/Zn sites of the misfolded enzyme (38), which contributes to further exacerbate OS conditions by increasing the levels of ROS within the cell (38,251). This latter mechanism can lead to misfolding of Cu, Zn SOD (315).…”

“…At high levels, however, its cytotoxicity is much increased by its reaction with superoxide anion to form peroxynitrite. 26,27 This causes oxidation of cell membrane lipids and DNA bases, thereby contributing to cell damage and injury, 26 and it has been implicated in a variety of clinical conditions, including rheumatoid arthritis, 21 atherosclerosis, 28 and adult respiratory distress syndrome. 29 NO can inactivate superoxide dismutase leading to an increased accumulation of superoxide anion, which itself can stimulate bone resorption, and also interfere with the glutathione-glutathione peroxidase system resulting in an increased production of hydrogen peroxide, a reactive oxygen species able to activate bone resorption.…”

“…6 One such ROS, namely NO, has major cytotoxic effects within the secondary lesion. 7 For example, peroxynitrite is a superoxide derivative of NO that has been shown to destroy proteins, lipids, and DNA. 8,9 The neurotoxic effects of NO vary according to the concentration of NO, redox conditions, cell type, and the tissue milieu.…”
