Peroxiredoxin 6 in skin carcinogenesis
Non-melanoma skin cancer represents a serious and globally increasing health problem. Therefore, a detailed knowledge on the mechanisms of skin cancer formation is required to develop innovative, efficient and cost-effective strategies for skin cancer prevention and treatment. A major risk factor for cancer formation is oxidative stress, which results from excessive levels of reactive oxygen sp...
متن کاملTumor and Stem Cell Biology Dual Role of the Antioxidant Enzyme Peroxiredoxin 6 in Skin Carcinogenesis
The antioxidant enzyme peroxiredoxin 6 (Prdx6) is a key regulator of the cellular redox balance, particularly under stress conditions. We identified Prdx6 as an important player in different phases of skin carcinogenesis. Loss of Prdx6 in mice enhanced the susceptibility to skin tumorigenesis, whereas overexpression of Prdx6 in keratinocytes of transgenic mice had the opposite effect. The tumor...

متن کاملExpression of human peroxiredoxin isoforms in response to cervical carcinogenesis.
Despite considerable progress in understanding the function of peroxiredoxin (Prx) in cancer, its expression patterns have not been extensively studied in response to cervical carcinogenesis. We evaluated the expression of Prx isoforms in normal tissue, cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN1, CIN2, and CIN3), and cervical cancer. We found strong pattern of increased Prx II and III immunostain...
متن کاملPeroxiredoxin 6 is required for blood vessel integrity in wounded skin
Peroxiredoxin 6 (Prdx6) is a cytoprotective enzyme with largely unknown in vivo functions. Here, we use Prdx6 knockout mice to determine its role in UV protection and wound healing. UV-mediated keratinocyte apoptosis is enhanced in Prdx6-deficient mice. Upon skin injury, we observe a severe hemorrhage in the granulation tissue of knockout animals, which correlates with the extent of oxidative s...
