The activation of NADPH oxidase contributes to dopaminergic neurodegeneration and motor deficits in Parkinson's disease (PD). However, whether NADPH oxidase is involved in non-motor symptoms, especially cognitive dysfunction in PD remains unknown.

The NADPH Oxidase of Endothelial Cells [PDF]
AbstractThe best known NADPH oxidase is that of phagocytes‐ neutrophils and monocytes. In these cells, the enzyme manufactures large quantities of O2 ‐ and other reactive oxidants that are used for the purpose of killing invading microorganisms. Recent studies, however, have suggested that a number of other tissues contain NADPH oxidases.

NADPH Oxidase and Cardiac Failure [PDF]
Increases in oxidative stress in the heart play an important role in mediating hypertrophy, apoptosis, fibrosis, mitochondrial dysfunction, and the consequent development of heart failure. Although it has been widely believed that electron leakage from the mitochondrial electron transport chain is the primary source of oxidative stress in the failing ...

The Arabidopsis NADPH oxidases RbohD and RbohF display differential expression patterns and contributions during plant immunity [PDF]
Plant NADPH oxidases, also known as respiratory burst oxidase homologues (RBOHs), produce reactive oxygen species (ROS) that perform a wide range of functions.

Exercise Training Ameliorates Renal Oxidative Stress in Rats with Chronic Renal Failure
In patients with chronic kidney disease, exercise training with moderate intensity protects renal function and improves mortality. However, the mechanisms of the renal protective effects of exercise training in chronic kidney disease have not been ...

Losartan metabolite EXP3179 blocks NADPH oxidase-mediated superoxide production by inhibiting protein kinase C: potential clinical implications in hypertension [PDF]
Oxidative stress plays a critical role in the pathogenesis of hypertension. The NADPH oxidase constitutes a major source of superoxide anion in phagocytic cells, and its activation is associated with matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-9 secretion by these ...

Parkinson’s disease is primarily caused by the loss of dopaminergic neurons in the substantia nigra compacta. Ferroptosis, a novel form of regulated cell death characterized by iron accumulation and lipid peroxidation, plays a vital role in the death of ...

Phenolic metabolites of anthocyanins modulate mechanisms of endothelial function [PDF]
Anthocyanins are reported to have vascular bioactivity, however their mechanisms of action are largely unknown. Evidence suggests that anthocyanins modulate endothelial function, potentially by increasing nitric oxide (NO) synthesis, or enhancing NO ...

NADPH Oxidases: Progress and Opportunities [PDF]
From the initial discovery in 1999 that NADPH oxidases comprise a family of enzymes to our current focus on drug development to treat multiple pathologies related to this enzyme family, progress has been swift and impressive. We have expanded our understanding of the extent of the family, the basic enzymatic biochemistry, the multiple cellular ...
