Prominent role of exopeptidase DPP III in estrogen-mediated protection against hyperoxia in vivo

Prominent role of exopeptidase DPP III in estrogen-mediated protection against hyperoxia in vivo

A number of age-related diseases have a low incidence in females, which is attributed to a protective effect of sex hormones. For instance, the female sex hormone estrogen (E2) has a well established cytoprotective effect against oxidative stress, which strongly contributes to ageing. However, the m...
