Antioxidant enzymes
Glutathione peroxidase (GPx)
Also searched as Glutathione peroxidase (GPx).
Glutathione is the stock; this is what actually spends it. Raising the enzyme means the same stock does more work.
In depth
Glutathione peroxidase — the enzyme family that spends glutathione to neutralize peroxides before they damage a cell.
What it drives
It increases Kidney.
Overexpressing glutathione peroxidase 3 in rat renal ischemia-reperfusion injury and in a hypoxia-reoxygenation cell model lowered NADPH oxidase expression and inflammatory cytokines, raised IL-10 and reduced renal tissue injury, and a MAPK agonist reversed the protection. doi 10.1016/j.gendis.2025.101640 · PMID 41492475
