Peroxynitrite (ONOO⁻) is a reactive nitrogen species formed by the reaction of nitric oxide (NO) with superoxide (O₂⁻). It is highly reactive and can cause significant cellular damage, including lipid peroxidation, DNA damage, and protein nitration. Peroxynitrite is associated with oxidative stress and has been implicated in the pathophysiology of various diseases, including cardiovascular diseases, neurodegenerative disorders (like Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s), and inflammation. Due to its potent reactivity, peroxynitrite is extensively studied in biochemical and medical research to understand its role in cell signaling, oxidative damage, and its potential as a target for therapeutic interventions.
