Prognostic significance of glutathione peroxidase 1 (GPX1) down-regulation and correlation with aberrant promoter methylation in human gastric cancer.
BACKGROUND This study aimed at examining the association of gene silencing and promoter methylation of glutathione peroxidase 1 (GPX1) and glutathione peroxidase 3 (GPX3) in gastric cancer cells and determined the clinical significance of GPX1 and GPX3 expression loss in gastric cancer tissue. MATERIALS AND METHODS Analysis of mRNA expression was carried out by reverse transcription-polymeras...
متن کاملInduction of cellular necrosis by the glutathione peroxidase mimetic ebselen.
The selenium-based compound ebselen is a powerful antioxidant, a potent anti-inflammatory agent and a potential neuroprotective compound. Several studies have demonstrated that part of the biological effect of ebselen is the result of the inhibition of apoptosis. We show in this report that ebselen induced the necrotic cell death of Sp2/0-Ag14 hybridoma cells. This process was rapid, with over ...
متن کاملLow glutathione peroxidase activity in Gpx1 knockout mice protects jejunum crypts from g-irradiation damage
Esworthy, R. Steven, Jeffrey R. Mann, Mindy Sam, and Fong-Fong Chu. Low glutathione peroxidase activity in Gpx1 knockout mice protects jejunum crypts from g-irradiation damage. Am J Physiol Gastrointest Liver Physiol 279: G426–G436, 2000.—Gpx1 knockout (KO) mice had a higher number of regenerating crypts in the jejunum than did Gpx2-KO or wild-type mice analyzed 4 days after $10 Gy g-irradiatio...
متن کاملGenetic association analysis of the glutathione peroxidase (GPX1) gene polymorphism (Pro197Leu) with tardive dyskinesia.
A possible involvement of oxidative stress in the pathophysiology of tardive dyskinesia (TD) has previously been proposed (reviewed in [Andreassen, O.A., Jorgensen, H.A., 2000. Neurotoxicity associated with neuroleptic-induced oral dyskinesias in rats. Implications for tardive dyskinesia? Progress in Neurobiology 61, 525-541.]). Long-term administration of neuroleptics alters dopaminergic turno...
متن کاملLack of the antioxidant glutathione peroxidase-1 (GPx1) exacerbates retinopathy of prematurity in mice.
PURPOSE Glutathione peroxidase-1 (GPx1) is highly expressed during normal retinal maturation; however, its role in retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) is not fully understood. We postulated that GPx1 plays an important role in protecting the premature retina from oxidative injury in a mouse model of ROP. METHODS ROP was induced in wild-type (WT) and GPx1 knockout (KO) mice by exposing neonatal m...
