  • These reactions lead to generation of electrophilic nitro-fatty acid signaling mediators, including NO2-CLA and S-nitrosothiol derivatives, detected at increased concentrations in systemic circulation following oral consumption of nitrate.

    “These reactions also lead to the generation of electrophilic nitro-fatty acid (NO2-FA) signaling mediators, including NO2-conjugated linoleic acid (NO2-CLA) and S-nitrosothiol derivatives, all of which can be detected at increased concentrations in the systemic circulation following oral consumption of nitrate[72,92–96].”
  • Under low pH, non-enzymatic reduction of nitrite to NO produces an intermediate nitrogen dioxide radical that can react with dietary, unsaturated, electrophilic fatty acids such as oleic and linoleic acid, to form nitro-conjugated fatty acids and S-nitrosothiol derivatives.

    “Under low pH, non-enzymatic reduction of nitrite to NO produces an intermediate nitrogen dioxide radical that can react with dietary, unsaturated, electrophilic fatty acids such as the essential FAs, oleic and linoleic acid, to form nitro-conjugated fatty acids and S-nitrosothiol derivatives[93,384].”
  • Nitroalkenes transduce signaling reactions by covalently modifying nucleophilic protein targets and altering their structure and function.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
