Duox1/2) have been proposed as potential By using multiple probes (hydroethidine, therapeutic targets in the treatment of a variety of hydropropidine, Amplex Red, and coumarin inflammatory and fibrotic diseases including boronate) with well-defined redox chemistry cancer (1-3).

DMSO concentration (<1%) high-throughput global profiling assays (Table 1) was kept the same in both control and treatment (7), we can now screen a small library of bioactive conditions. In confirmatory studies, stock compounds. One of the objectives of this study is solutions were prepared at higher concentrations to identify small molecule inhibitors of Nox2 (typically 10 mM or higher), such that the final isoform using the high-throughput screening concentration of the solvent vehicle was kept (HTS)/ROS based assay(s) that largely eliminate minimal (<0.3% v/v) upon dilution. false positives.
