Fibroblasts derived from long-lived insulin receptor substrate 1 null mice are not resistant to multiple forms of stress [PDF]
Reduced signalling through the insulin/insulin-like growth factor-1 signalling (IIS) pathway is a highly conserved lifespan determinant in model organisms.

Keap1 mutations in lung cancer patients
Kelch-like ECH-associated protein 1 (Keap1) inhibits nuclear factor erythroid 2-related 2 (NEF2L2; also named NRF2)-induced cytoprotection and has been hypothesized to represent a candidate tumor suppressor. We have previously reported the somatic mutations of the NRF2 gene (NFE2L2), however, the correlation between the Keap1 mutation and the ...

In the current experimental study, we scrutinized the chemoprotective effect of astraxanthin against the 7,12-dimethylbenz(a)anthracene (DMBA)-induced breast cancer via Nrf-2-Keap1 and NF-kB and mTOR/Maf-1/PTEN pathway.

NQO1 Enzyme and its Role in Cellular Protection; an Insight
NAD(P)H:quinone oxidoreductase 1 (NQO1) is considered as one of the most significant enzyme in cellular defense due to its ability to detoxify reactive quinones and quinone imines to their less toxic hydroquinones forms. NQO1 is a xenobiotic metabolizing

Regulation of Nrf2 by Mitochondrial Reactive Oxygen Species in Physiology and Pathology
Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are byproducts of aerobic respiration and signaling molecules that control various cellular functions. Nrf2 governs the gene expression of endogenous antioxidant synthesis and ROS-eliminating enzymes in response to various ...

Mutant p53–Nrf2 axis regulates the proteasome machinery in cancer
The proteasome machinery is a common target of gain-of-function p53 missense mutants. Upregulation of the proteasome fosters chemoresistance to proteasome inhibitors.

WDR23 regulates NRF2 independently of KEAP1
Cellular adaptation to stress is essential to ensure organismal survival. NRF2/NFE2L2 is a key determinant of xenobiotic stress responses, and loss of negative regulation by the KEAP1-CUL3 proteasome system is implicated in several chemo- and radiation-resistant cancers. Advantageously using C.

The KEAP1-NRF2 System and Esophageal Cancer
NRF2 (nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2) is a transcription factor that regulates the expression of many cytoprotective genes. NRF2 activation is mainly regulated by KEAP1 (kelch-like ECH-associated protein 1) through ubiquitination and proteasome degradation.
