Neuroprotective effects of an Nrf2 agonist on high glucose-induced damage in HT22 cells
Background Oxidative stress is the hallmark of diabetic encephalopathy, which may be caused by hyperglycaemic toxicity. We aimed to discover pharmacologic targets to restore redox homeostasis. We identified the transcription factor Nrf2 as such a target.

Oxidized phospholipids (OxPLs) are increasingly recognized as pleiotropic lipid mediators demonstrating a variety of biological activities. In particular, OxPLs induce electrophilic stress response and stimulate expression of NF-E2-related factor 2 (NRF2)

Hypoxia activates IKK-NF-κB and the immune response in Drosophila melanogaster [PDF]
Hypoxia, or low oxygen availability, is an important physiological and pathological stimulus for multicellular organisms. Molecularly, hypoxia activates a transcriptional programme directed at restoration of oxygen homoeostasis and cellular survival ...

Triphlorethol-A induces heme oxygenase-1 via activation of ERK and NF-E2 related factor 2 transcription factor [PDF]
Triphlorethol-A, phlorotannin found in Ecklonia cava, induced heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) expression at mRNA and protein levels, leading to increased HO-1 activity.

The Relationship between Nrf2 and HO-1 with the Severity of COVID-19 Disease
Nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) and heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) have significant roles in the development of a hyperinflammatory state in infectious diseases.

Human papillomavirus 16 L2 inhibits the transcriptional activation function, but not the DNA replication function, of HPV-16 E2 [PDF]
In this study we analysed the outcome of the interaction between HPV-16 L2 and E2 on the transactivation and DNA replication functions of E2. When E2 was expressed on its own, it transactivated a number of E2-responsive promoters but co-expression of L2 ...
