Diphenyleneiodonium, an inhibitor of NOXes and DUOXes, is also an iodide-specific transporter
FEBS Open Bio, 2014 NADPH oxidases (NOXes) and dual oxidases (DUOXes) generate O2.− and H2O2. Diphenyleneiodonium (DPI) inhibits the activity of these enzymes and is often used as a specific inhibitor.

Monitoring of the Membrane Potential in Proteoliposomes with Incorporated Cytochrome-c Oxidase Using the Fluorescent Dye Indocyanine [PDF]
Ivashchuk-Kienbaum Yu. A. J. Membrane Biol. 151, 247-259, 1996, 2002 A method has been developed to monitor changes of the membrane potential across vesicle membranes in real time. Using the potential-sensitive fluorescent dye indocyanine and on the basis of water/lipid redistribution model, a calculation procedure has been introduced to estimate the membrane potential in vesicles with incorporated cytochrome-c oxidase.

Electron and proton transport by NADPH oxidases [PDF]
Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences, 2005 The NADPH oxidase is the main weapon of phagocytic white blood cells that are the first line of defence of our body against invading pathogens, and patients lacking a functional oxidase suffer from severe and recurrent infections. The oxidase is a multisubunit enzyme complex that transports electrons from cytoplasmic NADPH to molecular oxygen in order ...

Imaging cytochrome C oxidase and FoF1-ATP synthase in mitochondrial cristae of living human cells by FLIM and superresolution microscopy [PDF]
arXiv, 2017 Cytochrome C oxidase and FoF1-ATP synthase constitute complex IV and V, respectively, of the five membrane-bound enzymes in mitochondria comprising the respiratory chain. These enzymes are located in the inner mitochondrial membrane (IMM), which exhibits large invaginations called cristae.

NADPH Oxidases in Cardiovascular Health and Disease [PDF]
Antioxidants & Redox Signaling, 2006 Increased oxidative stress plays an important role in the pathophysiology of cardiovascular diseases such as hypertension, atherosclerosis, diabetes, cardiac hypertrophy, heart failure, and ischemia-reperfusion. Although several sources of reactive oxygen species (ROS) may be involved, a family of NADPH oxidases appears to be especially important for ...

Surface modified sulfur nanoparticles can escape the glutathione reductase mediated detoxification system in fungi [PDF]
arXiv, 2015 The antifungal effects of orthorhombic (~10 nm; spherical) and monoclinic (~50 nm; tetrapod) sulfur nanoparticles (SNPs) were studied against the NADPH-dependent glutathione reductase (GR) mediated xenobiotic detoxification system (GSH-GSSG) in filamentous fungi (Aspergillus niger as a model organism).

Using Label-Free Raman Spectroscopy Integrated with Microfluidic Chips to Probe Ferroptosis Networks in Cells [PDF]
Ferroptosis, a regulated form of cell death driven by oxidative stress and lipid peroxidation, has emerged as a pivotal research focus with implications across various cellular contexts. In this study, we employed a multifaceted approach, integrating label-free Raman spectroscopy and microfluidics to study the mechanisms underpinning ferroptosis.
