Application

Application Comment Organism
medicine water-soluble components of cigarette smoke activate the vascular NAD(P)H oxidase. NAD(P)H oxidase-derived H2O2 activates NF-kappaB, leading to proinflammatory alterations in vascular phenotype, which likely promotes development of atherosclerosis Rattus norvegicus

Inhibitors

Inhibitors Comment Organism Structure
apocynin smoking impaires acetylcholine-induced relaxations of carotid arteries, which can be improved by the NAD(P)H oxidase inhibitor apocynin. Vascular mRNA expression of the proinflammatory cytokines IL-1, IL-6, and TNF-alpha and that of inducible nitric oxide synthase is significantly increased by both smoking and cigarette smoke extract exposure, which can be prevented by apocynin, diphenyleneiodinium, or scavenging of H2O2 Rattus norvegicus
