Non-canonical Keap1-independent activation of Nrf2 in astrocytes by mild oxidative stress
The transcription factor Nrf2 is a stress-responsive master regulator of antioxidant, detoxification and proteostasis genes. In astrocytes, Nrf2-dependent gene expression drives cell-autonomous cytoprotection and also non-cell-autonomous protection of ...

Nrf2 is a transcription factor facilitating cells’ resilience against redox and various other forms of stress. In the absence of stressors, KEAP1 and/or βTrCP mediate the ubiquitination of Nrf2 and prevent Nrf2-dependent gene expression and ...

Opposing effects of Nrf2 and Nrf2‐activating compounds on the NLRP3 inflammasome independent of Nrf2‐mediated gene expression [PDF]
The transcription factor Nrf2 regulates the expression of genes required for protection from xenobiotic and oxidative stress. Under normal conditions Nrf2 is constantly degraded upon ubiquitination, mediated by the Nrf2 inhibitor Keap1. Inflammasomes represent stress‐induced protein complexes.

Notch-Nrf2 Axis: Regulation of Nrf2 Gene Expression and Cytoprotection by Notch Signaling [PDF]
The Notch signaling pathway enables regulation and control of development, differentiation, and homeostasis through cell-cell communication. Our investigation shows that Notch signaling directly activates the Nrf2 stress adaptive response pathway through recruitment of the Notch intracellular domain (NICD) transcriptosome to a conserved Rbpjκ site in ...

Functional Role of NRF2 in Cervical Carcinogenesis. [PDF]
Nuclear factor erythroid-2-related factor 2 (NFE2L2) is a transcription factor associated with resistance to chemotherapy and increased tumor growth. NRF2 is repressed by the inhibitor Keap1.

NRF2-dependent gene expression promotes ciliogenesis and Hedgehog signaling [PDF]
AbstractThe transcription factor NRF2 is a master regulator of cellular antioxidant and detoxification responses, but it also regulates other processes such as autophagy and pluripotency. In human embryonic stem cells (hESCs), NRF2 antagonizes neuroectoderm differentiation, which only occurs after NRF2 is repressed via a Primary Cilia-Autophagy-NRF2 ...

Differential expression of the Nrf2-linked genes in pediatric septic shock [PDF]
Abstract Introduction Experimental data from animal models of sepsis support a role for a transcription factor, nuclear erythroid-related factor 2 p45-related factor 2 (Nrf2), as a master regulator of antioxidant and detoxifying genes and intermediary metabolism during stress.

Nrf2-DEPENDENT GENE EXPRESSIONS: A MOLECULAR TOXICOLOGICAL ASPECT
Although NF-E2 related factor 2 (Nrf2) was found to be a transcriptional regulator that controls an expression of the beta-globin gene, the notion is now widely accepted that this transfactor serves as a master regulator for the gene expression of a battery of proteins acting on anti-oxidative stress and detoxification of electrophiles. The function of
