Liver plays essential roles in the metabolism of many endogenous chemicals and exogenous toxicants. Mechanistic studies in liver have been at the forefront of efforts to probe the roles of bioactivation and detoxication of environmental toxins and toxicants in hepatotoxicity.

The KEAP1-NRF2 System: a Thiol-Based Sensor-Effector Apparatus for Maintaining Redox Homeostasis.
The Kelch-like ECH-associated protein 1-NF-E2-related factor 2 (KEAP1-NRF2) system forms the major node of cellular and organismal defense against oxidative and electrophilic stresses of both exogenous and endogenous origins.

NRF2 molecule of the month [PDF]
NRF2 – nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 is also known as GA binding protein transcription factor, alpha subunit 60kDa- GABPA [1, 2]. A recent literature review suggests that NRF2 has complex regulatory roles in cancer. NRF2 is a transcription factor and is upregulated by oncogenes.

The Molecular Mechanisms Regulating the KEAP1-NRF2 Pathway
The KEAP1-NRF2 pathway is the principal protective response to oxidative and electrophilic stresses. Under homeostatic conditions, KEAP1 forms part of an E3 ubiquitin ligase, which tightly regulates the activity of the transcription factor NRF2 by ...

The Keap1-Nrf2 System: A Mediator between Oxidative Stress and Aging
Oxidative stress, a term that describes the imbalance between oxidants and antioxidants, leads to the disruption of redox signals and causes molecular damage.
