It has a mass of approximately 20 kDa. GPX4 is widely expressed in various tissues including the brain testis kidney and liver underlining its significance in different physiological processes. GPX4 is essential in cellular anti-oxidant defense making it a potential marker in studies using GPX4 western blot techniques.\u003cbr\u003e\nBiological function summary\u003cbr\u003e\nGPX4 plays an important role in protecting cellular membranes from lipid peroxidation by acting alone which differentiates it from other glutathione peroxidases that work in a complex. It is necessary for the production of glutathione products and helps maintain redox homeostasis by converting glutathione peroxides. This action prevents cell death pathways linked to oxidative stress and ensures cellular integrity particularly in sensitive tissues like the brain and reproductive organs.\u003cbr\u003e\nPathways\u003cbr\u003e\nGPX4 integrates into important cellular antioxidant pathways. Specifically it functions within the glutathione metabolic pathway collaborating with related proteins like glutathione synthetase and glutathione reductase. GPX4 is also involved in ferroptosis regulation a cell death pathway critically linked to glutathione levels. It helps balance redox-sensitive signaling and metabolic activities demonstrating synergy with other antioxidant enzymes in the cellular response to oxidative stress.\u003cbr\u003e\nResearch connects GPX4 deficiency to neurological disorders and cancer. Its important antioxidative activity makes it significant in preventing neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's where it interacts with proteins like PINK1. GPX4 also shows relevance in cancer as its altered expression may increase vulnerability to cell death suggesting its potential role in chemotherapy resistance and therapy development.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Abcam","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46845074473129,"sku":"ab263935","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/es\/products\/abcam-ab263935","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
