As you may know, oxidative or nitrosative stress is now thought to underlie chronic fatigue syndrome, as set out by Martin Pall.

One can thus reasonably speculate that these latter conditions generated a nitrative rather than or parallel to a nitrosative stress.

This is further supported by our observation of cytoplasmic accumulation of α-synuclein and ubiquitin in the nigral dopamine-producing neurons, as extensive nitrosative / oxidative stress might cause impairment of the ubiquitin proteasome system resulting in accumulation of misfolded proteins
