Peroxiredoxins are a widely conserved family of enzymes that function in antioxidant defense and act in redox signaling pathways. Increased expression of human peroxiredoxin is associated with cancer, cardiovascular dysfunction, and neurodegeneration. Conoidin A inactivates peroxiredoxins by covalently binding to the catalytic cysteine on the enzyme.{25622,25624} It has been shown to inhibit peroxiredoxin II (IC50 = 23 µM) in the parasite T. gondii and peroxiredoxin I in the hookworm A. ceylanicum.{25622,25623,25624} At 5 µM, conoidin A can also inhibit the glucose oxidase-mediated hyperoxidation of mammalian peroxiredoxin I and II, but not peroxiredoxin III.{25622}
