NADPH oxidase in human lung fibroblasts
Reactive oxygen species produced by NADPH oxidase appear to play a role in the response of human lung fibroblast cells to rhinovirus infection. The purpose of the following studies was to characterize the NADPH oxidase components in these cells, to examine the effect of rhinovirus challenge on the expression of these proteins, and to confirm previous ...

IntroductionReceptor transactivation is a novel signaling mechanism used by several different neutrophil G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) to activate an allosterically modulated receptor that recognizes short chain free fatty acids.

Regulation of NADPH Oxidases [PDF]
The role for reactive oxygen species (ROS) in cellular (patho)physiology, in particular in signal transduction, is increasingly recognized. The family of NADPH oxidases (NOXes) plays an important role in the production of ROS in response to receptor agonists such as growth factors or inflammatory cytokines that signal through the Rho-like ...

Reactive oxygen species (ROS) promote the germination of several seeds, and antioxidants suppress it. However, questions remain regarding the role and production mechanism of ROS in seed germination. Here, we focused on NADPH oxidases, which produce ROS.

NADPH oxidase 4 (NOX4) as a biomarker and therapeutic target in neurodegenerative diseases
Diseases like Alzheimer's and Parkinson's diseases are defined by inflammation and the damage neurons undergo due to oxidative stress. A primary reactive oxygen species contributor in the central nervous system, NADPH oxidase 4, is viewed as a potential ...

NADPH Oxidase-4 Mediates Myofibroblast Activation and Fibrogenic Responses to Lung Injury
Members of the NADPH oxidase (NOX) family of enzymes, which catalyze the reduction of O2 to reactive oxygen species, have increased in number during eukaryotic evolution.

NADPH oxidases are important for neuronal function but detailed subcellular localization studies have not been performed. Here, we provide the first evidence for the presence of functional NADPH oxidase 2 (NOX2)‐type complex in neuronal growth cones and ...
