Abstract excerpt
In the previous study, we reported increased NOS expression in the astrocytes in the spinal cord of the transgenic mice that are used as ALS animal model. In the present study, we performed immunocytochemical studies to investigate the changes of nitrotyrosine-immunoreactivity in the brains of the transgenic mice, and demonstrated in vivo evidence of peroxynitrite-mediated oxidative damage in the pathogenesis of...
