Abstract

1-Nitropyrene In article number 2000123, Zongwei Cai and co-workers show that 1-nitropyrene inhibits superoxide dismutase 1 (SOD1) activity to increase intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) by forming cysteine sulfinylation on Cys111 of SOD1. Therefore, a novel mechanism of 1-nitropyrene-induced acute cytotoxicity and ROS production is proposed.
