Dr. Sarah Myhill has a nice page on
Inflammation with a reference to B12 and Mg:

Nitric oxide combines with superoxide (a major free radical which is very damaging and mopped up by superoxide dismutase) to form peroxynitirite. This may explain why B12 is so helpful because it scavaneges peroxynitrite directly. These effects result in an up-regulation of the NMDA receptor - this is down regulated by magnesium.
