Disease relevance of GPX3

 

High impact information on GPX3

  • The high levels of expression for GPx-3 in the isthmus were in contrast to expression of GPx-1 and GPx-2, which occurred mostly in the ampulla and infundibulum of the oviduct [2].
  • Therefore, we have analyzed the mechanism of production of pGPx in adipocytes [3].
  • The expression of pGPx and C/EBPdelta increases during adipogenesis, with dexamethasone being the main effector of these genes [3].
  • The expression of pGPx gene has been clearly detected in BIP cells and human adipocytes, but hardly in 3T3-L1 cells [3].
  • Plasma glutathione peroxidase was correlated positively to Se intake but negatively to SCC [4].
