The effect of exogenous peroxiredoxin 6 on morphofunctional state of isolated rat kidney
Objective: to investigate the role of peroxiredoxin 6 (PRX6) in preserving the morphofunctional state of ischemic isolated kidney during perfusion.Materials and methods. The model of an isolated perfused rat kidney was used.

Peroxiredoxins in Neurodegenerative Diseases [PDF]
Substantial evidence indicates that oxidative/nitrosative stress contributes to the neurodegenerative diseases. Peroxiredoxins (PRDXs) are one of the enzymatic antioxidant mechanisms neutralizing reactive oxygen/nitrogen species. Since mammalian PRDXs were identified 30 years ago, their significance was long overshadowed by the other well-studied ROS ...

The Peroxiredoxin Repair Proteins [PDF]
Sulfiredoxin and sestrin are cysteine sulfinic acid reductases that selectively reduce or repair the hyperoxidized forms of typical 2-Cys peroxiredoxins within eukaryotes. As such these enzymes play key roles in the modulation of peroxide-mediated cell signaling and cellular defense mechanisms. The unique structure of sulfiredoxin facilitates access to

Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), the most common type of lung cancer, etiologically associates with tobacco smoking which mechanistically contributes to oxidative stress to facilitate the occurrence of mutations, oncogenic transformation and ...

Measurement of Peroxiredoxin Activity [PDF]
AbstractPeroxiredoxins are cysteine‐dependent peroxidases that react with hydrogen peroxide, larger hydroperoxide substrates, and peroxynitrite. Protocols are provided to measure Prx activity with peroxide by (1) a coupled reaction with NADPH, thioredoxin reductase, and thioredoxin, (2) the direct monitoring of thioredoxin oxidation, (3) competition ...

Photosynthesis, the primary source of biomass and oxygen into the biosphere, involves the transport of electrons in the presence of oxygen and, therefore, chloroplasts constitute an important source of reactive oxygen species (ROS), including hydrogen ...

The Role of Thioredoxin/Peroxiredoxin in the β-Cell Defense Against Oxidative Damage
Oxidative stress is hypothesized to play a role in pancreatic β-cell damage, potentially contributing to β-cell dysfunction and death in both type 1 and type 2 diabetes.

Urate hydroperoxide oxidizes human peroxiredoxin 1 and peroxiredoxin 2 [PDF]
Urate hydroperoxide is a product of the oxidation of uric acid by inflammatory heme peroxidases. The formation of urate hydroperoxide might be a key event in vascular inflammation, where there is large amount of uric acid and inflammatory peroxidases.

Piecing Together How Peroxiredoxins Maintain Genomic Stability
Peroxiredoxins, a highly conserved family of thiol oxidoreductases, play a key role in oxidant detoxification by partnering with the thioredoxin system to protect against oxidative stress.
