Oxidative stress in Duchenne muscular dystrophy: focus on the NRF2 redox pathway [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Oxidative stress is involved in the pathogenesis of Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD), an X-linked genetic disorder caused by mutations in the dystrophin gene and characterized by progressive, lethal muscle degeneration and chronic inflammation.

Ezetimibe Prevents Ischemia/Reperfusion-Induced Oxidative Stress and Up-Regulates Nrf2/ARE and UPR Signaling Pathways

open access: yesAntioxidants, 2020
Background: While reperfusion is crucial for survival after an episode of ischemia, it also causes oxidative stress. Nuclear factor-E2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) and unfolded protein response (UPR) are protective against oxidative stress and endoplasmic ...

Interleukin-17D and Nrf2 mediate initial innate immune cell recruitment and restrict MCMV infection. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Innate immune cells quickly infiltrate the site of pathogen entry and not only stave off infection but also initiate antigen presentation and promote adaptive immunity.

The Mediator Subunit MED16 Transduces NRF2-Activating Signals into Antioxidant Gene Expression [PDF]

open access: yesMolecular and Cellular Biology, 2016
The KEAP1-NRF2 system plays a central role in cytoprotection. NRF2 is stabilized in response to electrophiles and activates transcription of antioxidant genes. Although robust induction of NRF2 target genes confers resistance to oxidative insults, how NRF2 triggers transcriptional activation after binding to DNA has not been elucidated. To decipher the

Nrf2 gene mutation and single nucleotide polymorphism rs6721961 of the Nrf2 promoter region in renal cell cancer

open access: yesBMC Cancer, 2019
Background Nuclear factor erythroid 2–related factor 2 (Nrf2) is involved in cell proliferation by promotion of metabolic activity. It is also the major regulator of antioxidants and has a pivotal role in tumor cell proliferation and resistance to ...

Expression of NRF2 and NRF2-modulated genes in peripheral blood leukocytes of bladder cancer males

open access: yesNeoplasma, 2012
Nuclear factor (erythroid-derived 2)-like 2 (NRF2) is an oxidant-responsive transcription factor involved in induction of antioxidant genes. We assessed NRF2 and selected NRF2-modulated gene expression: glutathione S-transferase A1 and P1 (GSTA1 and GSTP1), mitochondrial superoxide dismutase (SOD2) in blood leukocytes of 51 bladder cancer patients and ...

HDAC5 catalytic activity suppresses cardiomyocyte oxidative stress and NRF2 target gene expression [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 2019
Histone deacetylase 5 (HDAC5) and HDAC9 are class IIa HDACs that function as signal-responsive repressors of the epigenetic program for pathological cardiomyocyte hypertrophy. The conserved deacetylase domains of HDAC5 and HDAC9 are not required for inhibition of cardiac hypertrophy. Thus, the biological function of class IIa HDAC catalytic activity in

Increased expression of Nrf2 and elevated glucose uptake in pheochromocytoma and paraganglioma with SDHB gene mutation

open access: yesBMC Cancer, 2022
Background Pheochromocytomas (PCC) and paragangliomas (PGL) are catecholamine-producing neuroendocrine tumors. According to the World Health Organization Classification 2017, all PCC/PGL are considered to have malignant potential.
