Source sentences
The mitochondrial electron transport chain inhibitors, myxothiazol, rotenone, or antimycin A, and the mitochondria-targeted antioxidant peptide, Szeto-Schiller (SS)-31, which scavenges O(2)(*-), hydrogen peroxide (H(2)O(2)), peroxynitrite, and hydroxyl radicals, markedly inhibited the increase in HO-1 expression.
1 context sentence(design, population, supporting numbers)
EC exposure to steady laminar shear stress causes a sustained increase in NO, a transient increase in reactive oxygen species (ROS), and activation of the HO-1 gene.
