Hydrogen peroxide formation by Nox4 limits malignant transformation
2017-08-16
Abstract excerpt
Reactive oxygen species (ROS) can cause cellular damage and are thought to promote cancer-development. Nevertheless, under physiological conditions, all cells constantly produce ROS, either as chemical by-products or for signaling purpose. During differentiation cells induce the NADPH oxidase Nox4, which constitutively produces low amounts of H 2 O 2 . We infer that this constitutive H 2 O 2 is unlikely to be...
