TrxR, Thioredoxin Reductase: Click to Expand ⟱
Source:
Type:
TrxR is an enzyme that reduces Trx, allowing it to perform its reducing functions. It has been shown to have a role in cancer cell metabolism and survival.
TrxR is overexpressed in various types of cancer, including breast, lung, colon, and prostate cancer.

- Part of the thioredoxin system, which regulates reactive oxygen species (ROS).
- TrxR is a major antioxidant systems that maintains the intracellular redox homeostasis.
- Inhibition causes an increase in ROS.
- TrxR is often upregulated in cancer cells to help manage increased oxidative stress, it is seen as a potential therapeutic target. Inhibiting TrxR may result in increased ROS in cancer cells, pushing them toward apoptosis.
- TrxR is a selenoprotein—meaning it incorporates the trace element selenium in the form of the amino acid selenocysteine.

TrxR inhibitors:
-Piperlongumine
-Withania somnifera (Ashwagandha)
-Parthenolide
-EGCG
-Curcumin
-Myricetin
-Gambogic Acid
