Carbon dioxide protects cells in many ways. By bonding to amino groups, it can inhibit the glycation of proteins during oxidative stress, and it can limit the function of free radicals in the blood; inhibition of xanthin oxidase is one mechanism. It can reduce inflammation caused by endotoxin/LPS, by lowering the formation of tumor necrosis factor, IL-8 and other promoters of inflammation. It protects mitochondria maintaining(or even increasing) their ability to respire during stress.
