Scientific Background | Carboxy-PTIO Potassium salt is a nitric oxide (NO) scavenger widely used in biochemical and physiological studies to modulate NO signaling. It serves as a monitor of NO levels, a stoichiometric source of nitrogen dioxide (NO2), and a tool for eliminating NO in experimental systems. In neuroscience, Carboxy-PTIO is employed to investigate the role of NO in synaptic plasticity, neuroinflammation, and oxidative stress. Its ability to modulate NO pathways makes it valuable in neurodegenerative disease research, particularly in models of stroke, Parkinson’s disease, and Alzheimer’s disease. |
