Peroxidase

If I see the word peroxidase again I will scream! helenj_93 off to red n then to bed ... biology isa test tomorrow D: ❋ Unknown (2010)

In addition, selenium is incorporated at the active site of many proteins, including glutathione peroxidase, which is particularly important for cancer protection. ❋ Unknown (2010)

"peroxidase" activity in an enzyme called cyclooxygenase. ❋ Unknown (2010)

Isoflavones also inhibit thyroid peroxidase, which produces the thyroid hormones T3 and T4. ❋ Craig Cooper (2010)

Effect of alpha-lipoic acid on blood glucose, insulin resistance and glutathione peroxidase of type 2 diabetic patients. ❋ Dr. Nalini Chilkov (2011)

The presence of estrogen, however, stimulates the osteoclasts to increase production of the antioxidant glutathione peroxidase, which degrades the free-radical hydrogen peroxide into water and oxygen, rendering it harmless. ❋ M.D. Nicholas Perricone (2010)

The latter is an endogenous enzyme that, like glutathione peroxidase, breaks down hydrogen peroxide into water and oxygen. ❋ M.D. Nicholas Perricone (2010)

High amounts of malic, citric, tartaric, oxalic and other organic acids combined with the enzymes catalase and peroxidase give honey its renowned antibacterial properties. ❋ Dr. Reese Halter (2010)

Ethylenethiourea also inhibits thyroid peroxidase, an enzyme necessary for synthesis of T3 and T4. ❋ Unknown (2009)

This problem is further complicated because the critical antioxidant enzymes we make called superoxide dismutase, catalase, and glutathione peroxidase, which helps the body use glutathione to protect you are dependent on essential dietary nutrients to help them work well. ❋ M.D. Mark Hyman (2009)

For example, zinc, copper, and manganese are needed for the function of one of our own most powerful antioxidant enzymes called SOD, or superoxide dismutase, and selenium is needed for the function of glutathione peroxidase, which helps your glutathione do its job as an antioxidant and detoxifier. ❋ M.D. Mark Hyman (2009)

Flavonoid-peroxidase reaction as a detoxification mechanism of plants against H2O2. ❋ Unknown (2009)

A peroxidase/phenolics/ascorbate system can scavenge hydrogen peroxide in plants. ❋ Unknown (2009)

Selenium is a co-factor for the enzyme glutathione peroxidase. ❋ Unknown (2008)

Garlic increases the production of an enzyme known as glutathione peroxidase, which helps detoxify carcinogens. ❋ Unknown (2008)
