Abstract
Products and methods for redirecting the pathological biochemical process of accumulation of reduced pyridine nucleotides under deleterious hypoxia conditions toward the reduction of the precursor salt and the biosynthesis of biologically compatible, antioxidant noble metal nanoparticles and the simultaneous restoring of the tissue redox state are provided. The products and methods have application in the treatment of hypoxia and hypoxia-related diseases and disorders. Such products and methods are also useful in organ transplantation and recovery, in screening of anti-hypoxia agents, and in detecting elevated levels of the reducing equivalents of the redox state, for example, NADH, NADPH, GSH, and TrxSH, in cells, tissues, or organs.
