Overview

Nitrotyrosine is the nitrated form of the amino acid tyrosine. The accumulation of protein bound nitrotyrosine is associated with cardiovascular diseases that are based on inflammatory processes (e.g., atherosclerosis, myocardial infarction, diabetic vasculopathy, hypertension, or coronary heart diseases). A growing number of studies have also associated the accumulation of nitrotyrosine with neurological diseases (Alzheimer´s disease, Parkinson´s disease, multiple sclerosis, stroke). With treatment of some of the associated diseases the levels of nitrated tyrosines have been shown to decrease, so nitrotyrosine has been stated to be a marker of nitrosative stress. The Nitrotyrosine ELISA is intended for the quantitative determination of Nitrotyrosine.
