Other Information

**Key Characteristics:** GPX7 belongs to the glutathione peroxidase family, which consists of enzymes that catalyze the reduction of hydrogen peroxide and other ROS using glutathione as a cofactor. GPX7 exhibits catalase activity, which is essential for maintaining cellular redox balance. The enzyme is also involved in cellular responses to stimuli, stress, and chemical stress, highlighting its role in regulating cellular homeostasis. GPX7 is widely expressed in various tissues, including enterocytes, interstitial cells of the ovary, and epithelial cells of the nephron, suggesting its involvement in maintaining tissue homeostasis. **Pathways and Functions:** GPX7 is involved in several key pathways, including: 1. **Catalase activity:** GPX7 catalyzes the reduction of hydrogen peroxide and other ROS, thereby protecting cells from oxidative damage. 2. **Cellular oxidant detoxification:** GPX7 plays a crucial role in detoxifying ROS, which are reactive molecules that can cause cellular damage. 3. **Cellular responses to stimuli:** GPX7 is involved in regulating cellular responses to stress, including heat shock, oxidative stress, and chemical stress. 4. **Cellular response to chemical stress:** GPX7 helps to protect cells from chemical stress, such as exposure to toxic substances. 5. **Cellular response to oxidative stress:** GPX7 is essential for maintaining cellular homeostasis in the face of oxidative stress, which can cause cellular damage and death. **Clinical Significance:** GPX7 has been implicated in several diseases and disorders, including: 1. **Oxidative stress-related disorders:** GPX7 has been shown to play a role in the pathogenesis of oxidative stress-related disorders, such as atherosclerosis, cancer, and neurodegenerative diseases. 2. **Inflammatory disorders:** GPX7 has been implicated in inflammatory disorders, such as arthritis and asthma, where oxidative stress plays a key role. 3. **Cancer:** GPX7 has been shown to have anti-cancer properties, and its expression is often downregulated in cancer tissues. 4. **Neurodegenerative diseases:** GPX7 has been implicated in neurodegenerative diseases, such as Alzheimer's disease and Parkinson's disease, where oxidative stress plays a key role. In conclusion, GPX7 is an essential enzyme that plays a crucial role in maintaining cellular homeostasis by regulating cellular responses to stress, detoxification, and catalase activity. Its clinical significance is evident in its involvement in various diseases and disorders, including oxidative stress-related disorders, inflammatory disorders, cancer, and neurodegenerative diseases. Further research is needed to fully elucidate the role of GPX7 in human health and disease.
