The gp91phox homologue Nox1 produces H2O2, which induces cell growth, transformation, and tumorigenicity. However, it has not been clear whether H2O2 effects are mediated indirectly via a generally oxidizing cellular environment or whether H2O2 more directly targets specific signaling pathways. Here, we investigated signaling by H2O2 induced by Nox1 overexpression using a luciferase reporter regulated by the antioxidant response element ARE4. Surprisingly, Nox1-derived H2O2 activated the reporter gene 15-fold with no effect on the redox state of the major thiol antioxidant substances, glutathione and thioredoxin. H2O2 signaling to ARE4 was mediated by activation of both the c-Jun N-terminal kinase and ERK1/2 pathways modulated by Ras. Thus, "redox signaling" resulting in kinase signaling pathways is distinct from "oxidative stress," and is mediated by discrete, localized redox circuitry.
