Age-related decline of cardiac performance is often associated with oxidative stress and increased levels of free radicals, encompassing both reactive oxygen (ROS) and nitrogen species (RNS). Formation of RNS species is reported in acute myocardiac disorders such as heart failure. These species are metabolites and/or oxidation products of nitrogen monoxide (NO), such as nitrogen dioxide (NO2) and peroxynitrite (ONOO). A hallmark of these species is the conversion of tyrosine to 3-nitrotyrosine (3-NY).
