Regulation of Plant NADPH Oxidase [PDF]
The production of Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) is one of the key events occurring during the response of plants to environmental changes, and contributing to establish adaptive signaling pathways. A plasma membrane bound NADPH oxidase enzyme has been evidenced as the ROS producing system in various plant-microorganisms interactions.

NADPH Oxidases in Vascular Pathology [PDF]
Reactive oxygen species (ROS) play a critical role in vascular disease. While there are many possible sources of ROS, nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH) oxidases play a central role. They are a source of "kindling radicals," which affect other enzymes, such as nitric oxide synthase endothelial nitric oxide synthase or xanthine oxidase.

Background: Inflammation and reactive oxygen species (ROS) are important in the development of perinatal brain injury. The ROS-generating enzyme NADPH oxidase (Nox2) is present in inflammatory cells and contributes to brain injury in adult animal models.

Skeletal muscle NADPH oxidase is increased and triggers stretch-induced damage in the mdx mouse. [PDF]
Recent studies have shown that oxidative stress contributes to the pathogenesis of muscle damage in dystrophic (mdx) mice. In this study we have investigated the role of NADPH oxidase as a source of the oxidative stress in these mice.

NADPH oxidase as a therapeutic target in Alzheimer\u27s disease [PDF]
At present, available treatments for Alzheimer\u27s disease (AD) are largely unable to halt disease progression. Microglia, the resident macrophages in the brain, are strongly implicated in the pathology and progressively degenerative nature of AD ...

Redox modulation of FAK controls melanoma survival--role of NOX4. [PDF]
Studies have demonstrated that reactive oxygen species (ROS) generated by NADPH oxidase are essential for melanoma proliferation and survival. However, the mechanisms by which NADPH oxidase regulates these effects are still unclear.

Molecular insights of p47phox phosphorylation dynamics in the regulation of NADPH oxidase activation and superoxide production [PDF]
Phagocyte superoxide production by a multicomponent NADPH oxidase is important in host defense against microbial invasion. However inappropriate NADPH oxidase activation causes inflammation.

Effects of Iodonium Analogs on Nadph Oxidase 1 in Human Colon Cancer Cells
Recent studies suggest that of the molecules postulated to function as inhibitors of the NADPH oxidase family of enzymes iodonium analogs known to broadly interfere with flavin dehydrogenase function demonstrate mechanistic validity as NADPH oxidase ...

Expression and modulation of an NADPH oxidase in mammalian astrocytes [PDF]
Amyloid β peptides generate oxidative stress in hippocampal astrocytes through a mechanism sensitive to inhibitors of the NADPH oxidase [diphenylene iodonium (DPI) and apocynin].
