11568445 Lei XG: Glutathione peroxidase-1 gene knockout on body antioxidant defense in mice. Biofactors. 2001;14(1-4):93-9.

After these mice were injected with pro-oxidants paraquat or diquat at 12 to 125 mg/kg of body weight, their survival rate and time were a function of their GPX1 activity levels.

In conclusion, normal GPX1 expression is necessary to protect mice against the lethality, hepatic protein oxidation, and elevation of plasma ALT activity induced by 12-48 mg diquat/kg.

Macrophages isolated from both wild-type (WT) and GPX1 knockout (KO) mice were activated by lipopolysaccharide (LPS, 1 microg/ml) and interferon-gamma (IFN, 10 U/ml for 24 or 48 h in the presence or absence of 1 microM diquat (DQ), 250 microM aminoguanidine (AG, an inhibitor of inducible nitric oxide synthase), and (or) 100 microM diethyldithiocarbamate (DETC, an inhibitor of Cu,Zn-SOD).

Our objective was to determine whether high levels of dietary vitamin E replaced the protection of the Se-dependent cellular glutathione peroxidase (GPX1) against paraquat- or diquat-induced acute oxidative stress in mice.

Therefore, we measured oxidative stress parameters and gene expression alterations (Affymetrix arrays) in the liver caused by elevated reactive oxygen species induced in vivo by diquat or by genetic ablation of the major antioxidant enzymes CuZn-superoxide dismutase (Sod1) and glutathione peroxidase-1 (Gpx1).

Our objective was to compare the protection of GPX1 against cytotoxicity of superoxide generator diquat (DQ), NO donor S-nitroso-N-acetyl-penicillamine (SNAP) and peroxynitrite generator 3-morpholinosydnonimine (SIN-1).

Cell death induced by t-butylhydroperoxide and diquat was significantly less in murine embryonic fibroblasts from Tg (GPX4) mice compared with wild type mice.
