The oxidoreductase found in the endoplasmic reticulum, protein disulfide isomerase (PDI), has recently gained notoriety in cell signaling. Studies from our group have shown that PDI is involved in the regulation of NADPH oxidase enzymatic complex, which is the main source of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in the cardiovascular system. Our group has recently demonstrated that PDI overexpres…
Under physiological conditions, formation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) is counterbalanced by endogenous antioxidant defenses systems. When ROS production exceeds cellular antioxidant capacity, oxidative stress can cause damage to the cell. In normal physiologic conditions, Nox-derived ROS act as second messengers in cell signaling and modulate processes such as gene expression, cell …
