NF-E2-Related Factor 2 (Nrf2) Ameliorates Radiation-Induced Skin Injury [PDF]
Radiation-induced skin injury (RISI) commonly occur in cancer patients who received radiotherapy and is one of the first clinical symptoms after suffering from nuclear exposure. Oxidative damage is the major causes of RISI.

Expression of NF-E2-related factor 2 in a rat dural arteriovenous fistula model. [PDF]
Intracranial dural arteriovenous fistulas (DAVFs) are complex intracranial vascular malformations that may lead to hemorrhage. Although the precise mechanisms by which DAVFs occur remain unknown, dural angiogenesis may be a vital factor in its pathogenesis.

Triphlorethol‐A induces heme oxygenase‐1 via activation of ERK and NF‐E2 related factor 2 transcription factor [PDF]
Triphlorethol‐A, phlorotannin found inEcklonia cava, induced heme oxygenase‐1 (HO‐1) expression at mRNA and protein levels, leading to increased HO‐1 activity. Transcription factor NF‐E2 related factor 2 (Nrf2) regulates antioxidant response element (ARE) of phase 2 detoxifying and antioxidant enzymes.

NF-E2-Related Factor 2 Regulates Interferon Receptor Expression and Alters Macrophage Polarization in Lupus. [PDF]
ObjectivePristane‐induced lupus is associated with nonresolving inflammation and deficiency of proresolving macrophages. Proresolving nonclassic macrophages (NCMs) are less responsive to type I interferon (IFN) than classic macrophages (CMs; which are proinflammatory), reflecting their relative expression levels of the type I IFN receptor (IFNAR).

The transcription factor NF-E2-related factor 2 (Nrf2): a protooncogene?
The transcription factor Nrf2 is responsible for regulating a battery of antioxidant and cellular protective genes, primarily in response to oxidative stress. A member of the cap ‘n’ collar family of transcription factors, Nrf2 activation is tightly controlled by a series of signaling events.

Nrf2b, Novel Zebrafish Paralog of Oxidant-responsive Transcription Factor NF-E2-related Factor 2 (NRF2) [PDF]
NF-E2-related factor 2 (NRF2; also called NFE2L2) and related NRF family members regulate antioxidant defenses by activating gene expression via antioxidant response elements (AREs), but their roles in embryonic development are not well understood. We report here that zebrafish (Danio rerio), an important developmental model species, possesses six nrf ...

Association of NF-E2 Related Factor 2 (Nrf2) and inflammatory cytokines in recent onset Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus. [PDF]
AbstractWe investigated the association of redox regulator Nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) and inflammatory cytokines as well as clinical remission in patients with recent onset type 2 diabetes (DM). Blood was collected from 180 DM patients (105 males/75 females) and 150 control subjects (86 males/64 females).
