NADPH Oxidase - Inhibition

Inhibition

NADPH oxidase can be inhibited by apocynin and DPI (diphenylene iodonium). Apocynin prevents the assembly of the NADPH oxidase subunits. Using apocynin to inhibit NADPH oxidase may have clinical benefits in the treatment of influenza as it lessens influenza-induced lung inflammation in mice in vivo.
