GPX4, ferroptosis, and diseases
GPX4 (Glutathione peroxidase 4) serves as a crucial intracellular regulatory factor, participating in various physiological processes and playing a significant role in maintaining the redox homeostasis within the body. Ferroptosis, a form of iron-dependent non-apoptotic cell death, has gained considerable attention in recent years due to its ...

Structure–activity relationships of GPX4 inhibitor warheads
Direct inhibition of GPX4 requires covalent modification of the active-site selenocysteine. While phenotypic screening has revealed that activated alkyl chlorides and masked nitrile oxides can inhibit GPX4 covalently, a systematic assessment of potential electrophilic warheads with the capacity to inhibit cellular GPX4 has been lacking. Here, we survey

Oxidative stress is implicated in the pathologies of vascular endothelial cells. However, the importance of specific antioxidant enzymes in vascular endothelial cells is not fully understood. The purpose of this study was to elucidate the importance of Glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPx4), and the involvement of ferroptosis on cell death induced by GPx4 ...

Effects of nano-selenium and sodium selenite on SelP, GPx4 and SelW genes expression in testes of broiler breeder roosters [PDF]
Fertility is the main element affecting hatchability as an important indicator in breeder flocks’ per-formance. Roosters’ aging reduces their fertility.

GPX4 in cell death, autophagy, and disease
Selenoprotein GPX4 (glutathione peroxidase 4), originally known as PHGPX (phospholipid hydroperoxide glutathione peroxidase), is the main oxidoreductase in the use of glutathione as a reducing agent in scavenging lipid peroxidation products. There are three GPX4 isoforms: cytosolic (cGPX4), mitochondrial (mGPX4), and nuclear (nGPX4), with distinct ...
