malfunction Trxrd2-/- cells are more susceptible to glutathione depletion. Loss of Trxrd2 results in enhanced peroxynitrite steady-state levels in both vascular endothelial cells and vessels Mus musculus
physiological function the mitochondrial thioredoxin/peroxiredoxin system encompasses NADPH, thioredoxin reductase 2 (TrxR2), thioredoxin 2, and peroxiredoxins 3 and 5 (Prx3 and Prx5) and is crucial to regulate cell redox homeostasis via the efficient catabolism of peroxides. Endothelial TrxR2 controls both the steady-state concentration of peroxynitrite, the product of the reaction of superoxide radical and nitric oxide, and the integrity of the vascular system Mus musculus
