Introduction
PRDX3, a member of the peroxiredoxin family of antioxidant enzymes, plays a crucial role in reducing hydrogen peroxide and alkyl hydroperoxides. Its primary location within mitochondria highlights its involvement in regulating cellular redox balance by acting as a first line of defense against respiration-generated H2O2. PRDX3 significantly regulates mitochondrial H(2)O(2) levels, which contribute to apoptosis in conjunction with other apoptotic signaling mediators. Notably, PRDX3 mitochondrial protein expression is considerably reduced in Alzheimer's Disease and Down Syndrome.
