Type:
Glutathione peroxidases (GPXs) are crucial antioxidant enzymes, counteracting reactive oxygen species (ROS).
Glutathione peroxidase (GPx) refers to a family of antioxidant enzymes that play a crucial role in protecting cells from oxidative stress by catalyzing the reduction of hydrogen peroxide and organic peroxides. There are several isoforms of GPx, including GPx1, GPx2, GPx3, and GPx4, each with distinct tissue distributions and functions.
GPX overexpression promotes proliferation and invasion in cancer cells. Glutathione peroxidase-1 (GPX1), the most abundant isoform, contributes to invasion, migration, cisplatin resistance, and proliferation in various cancers.

GPx expression is often elevated in various cancers and is generally associated with poorer prognosis due to its role in protecting cancer cells from oxidative stress and contributing to treatment resistance.

Types of Cardiovascular Diseases
Coronary Artery Disease (CAD):
This is the most common type of CVD and occurs when the coronary arteries (which supply the heart with blood) are narrowed or blocked, typically due to atherosclerosis (the buildup of plaque). CAD can lead to chest pain (angina) or heart attacks.

Cerebrovascular Disease:
Diseases such as stroke fall under this category. A stroke occurs when blood flow to an area of the brain is interrupted, either by a clot (ischemic stroke) or by bleeding (hemorrhagic stroke).

Peripheral Artery Disease (PAD):
PAD involves the narrowing of peripheral arteries, often in the legs, which can cause pain and mobility issues.

Heart Failure:
Heart failure happens when the heart is unable to pump blood efficiently, leading to symptoms like shortness of breath, fatigue, and fluid retention.

Cardiac Arrhythmias:
These are problems related to the electrical system of the heart, which can cause irregular heartbeats. They range in severity from benign extra beats to life-threatening ventricular fibrillation.

Valvular Heart Diseases:
These diseases affect the heart valves, potentially causing conditions like stenosis (narrowing) or regurgitation (leakage), which can compromise the heart’s efficiency.
