basic FUNCTION
| basic thyroid H202 generating system with DUOX2 |
|
involved in mucin induction |
|
involved in innate airway host defense through enhanced production of H2O2 (Boots 2009) |
|
both DUOX1 and DUOX2 play a critical role in the production of H2O2 in the thyroid gland, which is the limiting factor in thyroglobulin iodination and thyroxine synthesis |
|
activation results in the activation of ERK1/2 and NF-KappaB pathways, ADAM17 activation, EGFR ligand shedding leading to amplified epithelial EGFR activation and IL-8 production (Boots 2009) |
|
either has a unique function or must interact with other protein factors to express its catalytic activity (Meitzler 2009) |
|
also involved in thyroid hormonogenesis (Rigutto 20009) |
|
despite the high sequence similarity shared between DUOX1 and DUOX2, the two isoforms present distinct regulations, tissue expression and catalytic functions |
|
plays an important role in innate airway epithelial responses to infection or injury |
|
importance of DUOX1 in epithelial redox signaling through reversible S-glutathionylation of a range of proteins, including proteins involved in cytoskeletal regulation and MAPK signaling pathways involved in cell migration |
|
DUOX1-dependent H2O2 production, which induces DNA double-strand breaks, can cause genomic instability and promote the generation of neoplastic cells through its mutagenic effect |
|
changes of intracellular calcium concentration are transformed into redox signals through the calcium-dependent activation of DUOX1 |
|
DUOX1 and CYBB play Distinct roles in Redox regulation of epidermal growth factor receptor signaling |
|
both DUOX enzymes (DUOX1, DUOX2) and their respective maturation factors DUOXA1 and DUOXA2 form a stable complex at the cell surface, which is fundamental for their enzymatic activity |
|
is an H2O2-generating enzyme related to a wide range of biological features, such as hormone synthesis, host defense, cellular proliferation, and fertilization |
|
thyroid hormone synthesis requires H2O2, produced by two NADPH oxidases, DUOX1 and DUOX2 |
