ANIMAL & CELL MODELS
  • In a rat model of diabetes, mitochondrial Nox4 expression is increased in kidney cortex (Block 2009)
  • in c-Nox4(-/-) mice, reduced levels of O(2)(-) in the heart, indicating that Nox4 is a significant source of O(2)(-) in cardiac myocytes
  • Nox4-null mice developed exaggerated contractile dysfunction, hypertrophy, and cardiac dilatation during exposure to chronic overload whereas Nox4-transgenic mice were protected
