Superoxides 133-143 glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase Canis lupus familiaris 69-102 16828794-0 2006 Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase-derived NADPH fuels superoxide production in the failing heart. Superoxides 54-64 glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase Canis lupus familiaris 0-33 16828794-3 2006 Therefore, we hypothesized that cardiac G6PD activation drives part of the excessive superoxide production implicated in the pathogenesis of heart failure. Superoxides 85-95 glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase Canis lupus familiaris 40-44 16828794-10 2006 G6PD was upregulated and its activity higher in heart failure compared to control (0.61 +/- 0.10 vs. 0.24 +/- 0.03 nmol/min/mg protein, P < 0.05), while superoxide production decreased to normal levels in the presence of the G6PD inhibitor 6-aminonicotinamide.
