Researchers from Tulane University identified NOX4, a ROS-generating enzyme, in epithelium near fibrotic foci in tissue biopsies of patients with IPF and linked its expression to epithelial cells senescence and persistence of aberrant transitional state leading to pulmonary fibrosis.
Psoriatic arthritis mutilans (PAM) is a rare variant and the most severe form of psoriatic arthritis where patients present erosions of the small joints and osteolysis leading to joint disruption and shortening of one or more digits. To date, no susceptibility genes have been determined.
Researchers from Shanxi Medical University and affiliated organizations presented data from a study that aimed to analyze the expression and prognostic value of mitochondrial-related genes in patients with stomach adenocarcinoma (STAD).
In a recent study, investigators led by Tony Tiganis at Monash University, Australia have identified that upregulation of the enzyme NOX4 (NADPH oxidase 4) boosted levels of reactive oxygen species and protected development of insulin resistance in both aged as well as obese mice.
