Meanings of intracellular nitrite in inglés

Nitrate reductase facilitates the conversion of nitrate to nitrite; thus when extracellular nitrate is present, intracellular nitrite will be increased.

These findings show that intracellular nitrite can increase accumulation of nitrotyrosine and that nitration is linked to cell cycle perturbation.

Intracellular nitrite was increased by transfection of murine macrophage-like RAW 264.7 cells with the nitrate reductase gene obtained from barley.
