Glutathione peroxidase (GPx) is an enzyme that has 8 isoenzyme forms, of which GPx-1 is an obligatory intracellular enzyme, while GPx-3 is active in extracellular fluids, especially in blood plasma. The main role of GPx is the protection of cells from oxidative stress induced by free oxygen radicals.

The GI-GPx gene is a target for Nrf2 [PDF]
The gastrointestinal glutathione peroxidase (GI-GPx, GPx2) is a selenoprotein that was suggested to act as barrier against hydroperoxide absorption but has also been implicated in the control of inflammation and malignant growth. In CaCo-2 cells, GI-GPx was induced by t-butyl hydroquinone (tBHQ) and sulforaphane (SFN), i.e., "antioxidants" known to ...

GPX: A Tool for the Exploration and Visualization of Genome Evolution [PDF]
Ever since Darwin the Tree of Life has provided a framework to study the evolution of organisms. However, comparative genome analyses of microorganisms have shown that genomes are mosaics where different parts have different histories. This is due to horizontal gene transfer that transforms the Tree of Life into a Web of Life where different parts of a

Effect of sub acute exposure of nano Zinc particles on oxidative stress parameters in rats [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Zinc (Zn) is one of the most important essential elements in the body of animals and plants. Zinc plays a significant role in the structure of more than 300 different proteins and in many life supporting biochemical and metabolic processes ...

Research progress of glutathione peroxidase family (GPX) in redoxidation
Maintaining the balance of a cell’s redox function is key to determining cell fate. In the critical redox system of mammalian cells, glutathione peroxidase (GPX) is the most prominent family of proteins with a multifaceted function that affects almost all cellular processes.

Oxidative and apoptotic effects of fluoxetine and its metabolite norfluoxetine in Daphnia magna
The aim of this study was to investigate the oxidative and apoptotic potential of fluoxetine, a widely used antidepressant in Turkey and the world, and of its metabolite norfluoxetine on a model non-target organism, Daphnia magna to see how exposure to ...
