Abstract

Nitrogen in the form of NO is a critical biomolecule (Halliwell & Gutteridge, 2007). However, when excessive amounts of agriculturally derived, soluble nitrogen contaminate drinking water supplies and reach high concentrations in human body fluids, reactive nitrogen can create both acute and chronic health concerns. This study examined lymphocytes in-vitro, examining varying exposures of nitrite (in the form of sodium nitrite at 1, 5, 10, 15 ppm) and lymphocyte reactions to these exposures from the perspective of inflammatory cytokine expression and indicators of DNA stress and damage such as evidence of induction pathway dephosphorylation and histone indicators of DNA strand breakage. This study illustrated that IL-1, IL-6, IL-17, TNF-
