Background:
NADPH oxidase 4 (NOX4) is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the NOX4 gene, and is a member of the NOX family.[1] Oxygen sensing is essential for homeostasis in all aerobic organisms. A phagocyte-type oxidase, similar to that responsible for the production of large amounts of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in neutrophil granulocytes, with resultant antimicrobial activity, has been postulated to function in the kidney as an oxygen sensor that regulates the synthesis of erythropoietin in the renal cortex. Nox4 protects the vasculature against inflammatory stress.[2] Nox-dependent reactive oxygen species modulation by amino endoperoxides can induce apoptosis in high Nox4-expressing cancer cells.[3] cytoplasmic NOX2 and nuclear NOX4 expression is upregulated during hepatocellular carcinoma development. In particular, NOX4 translocation into the nucleus may affect the development and progression of hepatocellular carcinoma.[4] Tubular NOX4 expression decreases in chronic kidney disease but does not modify fibrosis evolution.[5] hypoxia induces HK-2 cell apoptosis through a signaling pathway involving TGF-beta1 via Smad pathway induction of Nox4-dependent reactive oxygen species generation.[6] NOX4 showed an anti-inflammatory role for Nox4 in macrophages and Nox4 deficiency results in less M(IL4+IL13) polarization and suppression of NFkappaB activity in monocytes.[7] The activated p38 pathway is at least partially mediated by NOX-4 in diabetic nephropathy in humans and in a rat model.[8]
