INTENSITY OF NITRIC OXIDE SYNTHESIS IN THE BLOOD OF RATS UNDER THE INFLUENCE OF SODIUM FLUORIDE by I.L. Kolisnyk

“…It is known that when the rate of free radical reactions in the body increases, NO can react with a superoxide anion radical to form peroxynitrite, a highly reactive compound with destructive properties against proteins and lipids. Oral administration of FN to rats in doses of 1/10 and 1/100 DL50 leads to an increase in the content of nitrite and nitrate anions in the blood plasma during the first 30 days, which indirectly indicates excess production of nitric oxide, which in the initial stages of intoxication may play a compensatory role, but subsequently cause pathological reactions associated with the activation of oxidative stress. …”
