Glutathione peroxidase (GPx) is a selenoprotein with biological properties that allow the detoxification of endogenous or exogenous reactive oxygen species as well as the elimination of xenobiotic compounds in the cells. Due to its isoform activities and pathophysiological functions, GPx holds the status of a redox system (GSH / GSSG) in the Glutathione (GSH) system to prevent oxidative damage of cellular constituents. As such, the GPx is the first line of defense against free radicals. Its deficiency causes oxidative stress that not only promotes the oxidation of proteins and Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) but also leads to insulin resistance, dyslipidemia, inflammation and metabolic alterations, which expose to high risk for cardiometabolic disorders due to cardiovascular and degenerative diseases (especially when associated with ageing). This work presents a review of different studies done on the localization of GPx in subcellular organelles, activities changes during cellular ageing, their effects on cardiometabolic risks and associated diseases.
