IT is generally accepted that red cells possess enzymatic reducing mechanisms that maintain hemoglobin in its active state.1,2It is also well established that the reduction is dependent on the regeneration of reduced pyridine nucleotides.345Treating red cells with nitrite and incubating them with glucose, lactate, or other substrates that allow the production of reduced pyridine nucleotides promotes methemoglobin reduction.1,2,6,7Under normal conditions, NADH (reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide) accounts for most of the methemoglobin-reducing capacity of the erythrocyte.2,891011An NADH dehydrogenase — variously named methemoglobin reductase or cytochrome b5 reductase — has been proved to be a component of the . . .
