New Insights into Aspirin’s Anticancer Activity: The Predominant Role of Its Iron-Chelating Antioxidant Metabolites by George J. Kontoghiorghes

“…The ACMs from non-absorbed aspirin (about 30%) may also mitigate the toxicity of heme and nitroso-heme and other iron toxins from food, which are responsible for the cause of colorectal cancer. The mode of action of aspirin as a chelating antioxidant pro-drug of the ACMs, with continuous presence in LTLDA users, increases the prospect for prophylaxis in cancer and other diseases. …”

INTENSITY OF NITRIC OXIDE SYNTHESIS IN THE BLOOD OF RATS UNDER THE INFLUENCE OF SODIUM FLUORIDE by I.L. Kolisnyk

“…The decrease in nitrite and nitrate anions at the end of long-term action of FN indirectly indicates a decrease in nitric oxide generation, which may be associated, in particular, with an increase in peroxynitrite concentration due to the use of nitric oxide in reaction with superoxide anion radical and antioxidant deficiency.…”

Control Strategy of Islanded AC/DC Hybrid Microgrid Power System Based on Adaptive Segmented Double-Droop by MI Yang, GU Fuyike, LI Chunxu, BAO Wei, YAN Yuehao, LIU Xiaohui, YANG Yanan

“…Second，to plan the operating mode of the bidirectional AC/DC converter reasonably，the load states of the AC and DC subnets are divided. By setting the action threshold to avoid frequent starts and stops，an adaptive function is selected to add the stage II droop expression when the power difference exceeds the starting threshold by maintaining the conventional double-droop control in segment I. …”
