Journal ArticleDOI

Combating oxidative stress in vascular disease: NADPH oxidases as therapeutic targets

TL;DR: The concept that compared to the use of conventional antioxidants, inhibiting NOX1 and NOX2 oxidases is a superior approach for combating oxidative stress is advanced.
Journal ArticleDOI

Direct evidence of a role for Nox2 in superoxide production, reduced nitric oxide bioavailability, and early atherosclerotic plaque formation in ApoE-/- mice.

TL;DR: This is the first demonstration of a role for Nox2-NADPH oxidase in vascular ROS production, reduced NO bioavailability, and early lesion development in ApoE(-/-) mice, highlighting this Nox isoform as a potential target for future therapies for atherosclerosis.
Journal ArticleDOI

NADPH oxidases in the vasculature: molecular features, roles in disease and pharmacological inhibition.

TL;DR: The structural and biochemical characteristics of the NADPH oxidase family are highlighted and the literature on the currently available pharmacological inhibitors of these enzymes are reviewed with a particular emphasis on their mechanisms of action, isoform selectivity and therapeutic potential in cardiovascular disease.
Journal ArticleDOI

Inhibition of Nox2 Oxidase Activity Ameliorates Influenza A Virus-Induced Lung Inflammation

TL;DR: In vivo administration of the Nox2 inhibitor apocynin significantly suppressed viral titer, airways inflammation and inflammatory cell superoxide production following infection with X-31 or PR8 in an influenza strain-independent manner.
Journal ArticleDOI

Analysis of dihydroethidium fluorescence for the detection of intracellular and extracellular superoxide produced by NADPH oxidase

TL;DR: DHE-derived fluorescence at 570 nm is a convenient method for detection of intracellular and extracellular superoxide produced by phagocytic and vascular NADPH oxidase.
