NADPH oxidase in human lung fibroblasts

open access: yesJournal of Biomedical Science, 2004
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 ...

The free fatty acid 2 receptor regulates C5a induced neutrophil superoxide production and its sensitivity to inhibition by the antagonist avacopan

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology
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.

Production of reactive oxygen species in the diabetic heart. Roles of mitochondria and NADPH oxidase.

open access: yesCirculation Journal, 2014
Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are the main facilitators of cardiovascular complications in diabetes mellitus (DM), and the ROS level is increased in cultured cells exposed to high glucose concentrations or in diabetic animal models.

Regulation of NADPH Oxidases [PDF]

open access: yesCirculation Research, 2006
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 ...

A Role for Reactive Oxygen Species Produced by NADPH Oxidases in the Embryo and Aleurone Cells in Barley Seed Germination.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
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.

Influenza infection suppresses NADPH oxidase-dependent phagocytic bacterial clearance and enhances susceptibility to secondary MRSA infection

open access: yesJournal of Immunology, 2014
Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) has emerged as a leading contributor to mortality during recent influenza pandemics. The mechanism for this influenza-induced susceptibility to secondary S. aureus infection is poorly understood. In this

NADPH oxidase 4 (NOX4) as a biomarker and therapeutic target in neurodegenerative diseases

open access: yesNeural Regeneration Research
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

open access: yesNature Medicine, 2009
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.

Bidirectional interactions between NOX2-type NADPH oxidase and the F-actin cytoskeleton in neuronal growth cones

open access: yesJournal of Neurochemistry, 2014
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 ...
