NADPH-dependent production and elimination of ROS is shown. The abbreviation stands for as follows: GP, glutathione peroxidase; GR, glutathione reductase; GSH, reduced glutathione; GSSG, oxidized glutathione; SOD, superoxide dismutase; G6PD, glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase; 6PGD, 6-phosphogluconate dehyderogenase; HMP, hexose monophosphate pathway.Back to article page
