Overproduction of reactive nitrogen and oxygen species (RNS and ROS) has been linked to the pathogenesis of diabetes, hypertension, hyperlipidemia, stroke, angina, and other cardiovascular diseases. These species are produced in part by the mitochondrial respiratory chain, NADPH oxidase, and xanthine oxidase. RNS and ROS both contribute to oxidative stress, which is necessary for the development of cardiovascular disorders. In addition to ROS species like hydroxyl ion, hydrogen peroxide, and superoxide anion, RNS species like nitric oxide, peroxynitrous acid, peroxynitrite, and nitrogen dioxide radicals have also been linked to a number of cardiovascular conditions...
