The Xanthine Oxidase Inhibitor Febuxostat Suppresses Adipogenesis and Activates Nrf2

open access: yesAntioxidants, 2023
Xanthine oxidoreductase (XOR) is a rate-limiting enzyme in purine catabolism that acts as a novel regulator of adipogenesis. In pathological states, xanthine oxidoreductase activity increases to produce excess reactive oxygen species (ROS).
