Decreased glutathione biosynthesis contributes to EGFR T790M-driven erlotinib resistance in non-small cell lung cancer [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) inhibitors such as erlotinib are novel effective agents in the treatment of EGFR-driven lung cancer, but their clinical impact is often impaired by acquired drug resistance through the secondary T790M EGFR mutation.

A novel mechanism of action of HER2 targeted immunotherapy is explained by inhibition of NRF2 function in ovarian cancer cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Nuclear erythroid related factor-2 (NRF2) is known to promote cancer therapeutic detoxification and crosstalk with growth promoting pathways. HER2 receptor tyrosine kinase is frequently overexpressed in cancers leading to uncontrolled receptor activation

Structural Characterization of KEAP1 R415K to Guide the Design of KEAP1‐Nrf2 Peptide Inhibitors

open access: yesThe FASEB Journal, 2021
Oxidative stress can cause extensive damage to DNA, proteins, and lipids. Thus, long‐term oxidative stress has been linked to many diseases including cancer and Alzheimer's disease. The highly‐charged binding interface between regulatory protein Kelch‐like ECH‐associated protein 1 (KEAP1) and transcription factor nuclear erythroid factor 2‐like 2 (Nrf2)

Loss of KEAP1 Causes an Accumulation of Nondegradative Organelles

open access: yesAntioxidants, 2022
KEAP1 is a cytoplasmic protein that functions as an adaptor for the Cullin-3-based ubiquitin E3 ligase system, which regulates the degradation of many proteins, including NFE2L2/NRF2 and p62/SQSTM1.

Characterizing genomic alterations in cancer by complementary functional associations. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Systematic efforts to sequence the cancer genome have identified large numbers of mutations and copy number alterations in human cancers. However, elucidating the functional consequences of these variants, and their interactions to drive or maintain ...

Glutathione Metabolism in Renal Cell Carcinoma Progression and Implications for Therapies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
A significantly increased level of the reactive oxygen species (ROS) scavenger glutathione (GSH) has been identified as a hallmark of renal cell carcinoma (RCC). The proposed mechanism for increased GSH levels is to counteract damaging ROS to sustain the

Epigenetic Regulation of NRF2/KEAP1 by Phytochemicals [PDF]

open access: yesAntioxidants, 2020
Epigenetics has provided a new dimension to our understanding of nuclear factor erythroid 2–related factor 2/Kelch-like ECH-associated protein 1 (human NRF2/KEAP1 and murine Nrf2/Keap1) signaling. Unlike the genetic changes affecting DNA sequence, the reversible nature of epigenetic alterations provides an attractive avenue for cancer interception ...

Antioxidant and renal protective effects of Nano-selenium on adenine-induced acute renal failure in canines

open access: yesEcotoxicology and Environmental Safety
Acute renal failure is a common clinical disease in canines, affecting antioxidant levels and decreasing the body's resistance. This study aims to explore the therapeutic mechanism of Nano-selenium in acute renal failure.
