The emerging role of Nrf2 in heart failure: From cardioprotection to therapeutic approaches

ESC Heart Failure, EarlyView.
Nrf2 signalling is impaired in heart failure, contributing to oxidative stress, mitochondrial dysfunction, and ferroptosis, which drive neurohormonal activation, inflammation, and ischaemia‐reperfusion injury. This loss of Nrf2 activity exacerbates hypertension, diabetic cardiomyopathy, and cardiotoxicity, accelerating progression to overt heart ...

The role of the host—Neutrophil biology

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView., 2023
Abstract Neutrophilic polymorphonuclear leukocytes (neutrophils) are myeloid cells packed with lysosomal granules (hence also called granulocytes) that contain a formidable antimicrobial arsenal. They are terminally differentiated cells that play a critical role in acute and chronic inflammation, as well as in the resolution of inflammation and wound ...
