Correlation of ferritin and glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4) level as a marker of ferroptosis process in endometrioma [PDF]
Endometriosis is a chronic inflammatory disease characterized by the presence of endometrial-like tissues (glands and stroma) located outside the uterine cavity. The pathophysiology of this condition remains incompletely understood.

Platycodin D regulates high glucose-induced ferroptosis of HK-2 cells through glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4). [PDF]
Diabetic nephropathy (DN) is associated with inflammation. Platycodin D (PD) demonstrates anti-inflammatory activity. However, whether PD affects DN remains to be explored. Here, we aimed to discuss the role of PD in DN and its underlying mechanisms. High glucose (HG)-induced HK-2 cells were treated with PD, and cell viability was assessed using the ...

Identification of AP-1 as a Critical Regulator of Glutathione Peroxidase 4 (GPX4) Transcriptional Suppression and Acinar Cell Ferroptosis in Acute Pancreatitis. [PDF]
Glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4)-dependent ferroptosis in pancreatic acinar cells plays a critical role in acute pancreatitis (AP). However, potential upstream regulators of GPX4 are not well defined. Here, we observed a marked reduction in acinar GPX4 expression and ferroptotic cell death in mice with cerulein-induced AP.

The Role of rs713041 Glutathione Peroxidase 4 (<i>GPX4</i>) Single Nucleotide Polymorphism on Disease Susceptibility in Humans: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis. [PDF]
Aim: The single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) rs713041, located in the regulatory region, is required to incorporate selenium into the selenoprotein glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4) and has been found to have functional consequences. This systematic review aimed to conduct a meta-analysis to determine whether there is an association between GPX4 ...

Glutathione peroxidase 4 (Gpx4) and ferroptosis: what's so special about it? [PDF]
The system XC (-)/glutathione/glutathione peroxidase 4 (Gpx4) axis pivotally controls ferroptosis, a recently described form of regulated non-apoptotic cell death. Compelling evidence has established that this route of cell death is not only of high relevance for triggering cancer cell death, but also proves to be amenable for therapeutic intervention ...

Naringenin alleviates myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury by regulating the nuclear factor-erythroid factor 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) /System xc-/ glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4) axis to inhibit ferroptosis. [PDF]
Ferroptosis is an important form of myocardial cell death in myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury (MIRI). Naringenin (NAR), as a flavonoid, has a significant advantage in improving MIRI. But the regulatory effect and mechanism of NAR on ferroptosis in MIRI have not been reported.

Deficiency in glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4) results in abnormal lens development and newborn cataract. [PDF]
The human lens is composed of a monolayer of lens epithelial cells (LECs) and elongated fibers that align tightly but are separated by the plasma membrane. The integrity of the lens plasma membrane is crucial for maintaining lens cellular structure, homeostasis, and transparency. Glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4), a selenoenzyme, plays a critical role in

Expression of a catalytically inactive mutant form of glutathione peroxidase 4 (Gpx4) confers a dominant-negative effect in male fertility. [PDF]
The selenoenzyme Gpx4 is essential for early embryogenesis and cell viability for its unique function to prevent phospholipid oxidation. Recently, the cytosolic form of Gpx4 was identified as an upstream regulator of a novel form of non-apoptotic cell ...

Glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4) and obesity interact to impact tumor progression and treatment response in triple negative breast cancer. [PDF]
Abstract Introduction Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC), which tends to be more advanced when diagnosed and more aggressive than other breast cancer subtypes, is accelerated by obesity. Hypertrophic adipocytes and cancer cells exhibit increased oxidative stress and altered redox homeostasis, influencing therapeutic

Piezo1 Knockout Improves Post-Stroke Cognitive Dysfunction by Inhibiting the Interleukin-6 (IL-6)/Glutathione Peroxidase 4 (GPX4) Pathway. [PDF]
Cerebral infarction often results in post-stroke cognitive impairment, which impairs the quality of life and causes long-term disability. Astrocytes, the most abundant glial cells in the central nervous system, have a crucial role in cerebral ischemia and neuroinflammation.
