Recently, a hybrid model (cuprizone autoimmune encephalitis or CAE) combining the myelin-toxic effects of cuprizone (Zirngibl et al., 2022) together with an immune stimulation identical to EAE but without extrinsic myelin peptides, provided proof-of-principle for the notion that a primary biochemical dysmyelination can result in a very typical inflammatory demyelinating white matter lesion in an immune-stimulated host (Caprariello et al., 2018)
This progression is similar to what researchers observe with the GLP-1 onset timeline across all medications in this class
Lesser-known members like GPx5, GPx6, GPx7, and GPx8 often rely on cysteine and play niche roles, such as in sperm protection (GPx5) or endoplasmic reticulum stress management (GPx7 and GPx8)
For instance, in the active site of NADP-dependent enzymes, an ionic bond is formed between a basic amino acid side-chain and the acidic phosphate group of NADP +
