Metabolite Identification
Common NamePeroxynitrite
DescriptionPeroxynitrite is a potent oxidant synthesized by the cell during its normal metabolism. The peroxynitrite anion (ONOO-) is a reactive species produced in the reaction between the superoxide anion (O2*-) and nitric oxide (*NO). Peroxynitrite (ONOO-) is a strong oxidation and nitration agent, which damages DNA, proteins and other cellular structures. ONOO- is involved in several pathological conditions such as inflammation, arteriosclerosis, and neurodegenerative and cardiovascular disorders. ONOO- inhibits different steps of blood platelet activation and causes the depletion of platelet thiols. (PMID 15647782 ).
