Glutathione peroxidase-1 (Gpx1) or catalase gene overexpression to enhance H2O2 removal remarkably reduced hypoxic increases in [ROS] i and [Ca2+] i, whereas Gpx1 gene deletion had the opposite effect.
Moreover, H2O2 (5.1 microM) reversed the inhibition of the hypoxia-induced increase in [Ca2+] i by rotenone.

Inhibition of mitochondrial ROS generation with rotenone or myxothiazol prevented hypoxic activation of Nox.
Glutathione peroxidase-1 (Gpx1) gene overexpression to enhance H (2) O (2) removal significantly inhibited the hypoxic activation of Nox, whereas Gpx1 gene deletion had the opposite effect.

Inhibition of ROS production with the superoxide scavenger Tiron or inhibitors of flavoproteins (diphenylene iodonium) and NADPH oxidase (apocynin), but not eNOS (l-NAME) or mitochondria complex I (rotenone) abrogated HO-1 induction by AGE-BSA.
