Determinants of Human Plasma Glutathione Peroxidase (GPx-3) Expression [PDF]
Plasma glutathione peroxidase (GPx-3) is a selenocysteine-containing protein with antioxidant properties. GPx-3 deficiency has been associated with cardiovascular disease and stroke. The regulation of GPx-3 expression remains largely uncharacterized, however, and we studied its transcriptional and translational determinants in a cultured cell system ...

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 ...

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.

АКТИВНОСТ СЕЛЕНОЕНЗИМА GPx-1 И GPx-3 У КРВИ РАДНИХ КОЊА НА ТЕРИТОРИЈИ ЦЕНТРАЛНЕ СРБИЈЕ
Глутатион пероксидаза (GPx) је ензим који постоји у 8 изоензимских облика, од којих GPx-1 је облигаторни интрацелуларни ензим, док је GPx-3 активна у екстрацелуларним течностима, посебно у крвној плазми. Основна улога GPx се огледа у заштити ћелија од оксидативног стреса којег индукују слободни кисеонични радикали.
