3-Nitro-L-tyrosine
Based on 1 Customer Validation
3-Nitro-L-tyrosine serves as a biomarker of oxidative stress. 3-Nitro-L-tyrosine attenuates the pressor and vasoconstrictive effects of angiotensin II by inhibiting the α1-adrenergic receptor-mediated signaling pathway, and participates in hemodynamic regulation under pathological conditions such as inflammation and ischemia. 3-Nitro-L-tyrosine can be used in studies related to atherosclerosis, ischemia-reperfusion and sepsis.

Biological Activity
|
Human Endogenous Metabolite |
3-Nitro-L-tyrosine can be found in the brain as a product of superoxide and nitric oxide, and serves as a marker for oxidative stress induced by reactive oxygen species and nitric oxide[1].

Result:Produced a significant 36% increase in baseline hindquarter vascular resistance at 120-180 min post-treatment.
Diminished the dose-dependent pressor responses to angiotensin II at 120-180 min post-treatment.
Significantly reduced the dose-dependent vasoconstrictor effects of angiotensin II in renal and mesenteric beds at 30-60 min post-treatment, with further attenuation evident at 120-180 min post-treatment.
Did not alter the minor effects of angiotensin II on hindquarter vascular resistance.
