Evidence of Notch-Hesr-Nrf2 Axis in Muscle Stem Cells, but Absence of Nrf2 Has No Effect on Their Quiescent and Undifferentiated State.

PLoS ONE, 2015
Nrf2 is a master regulator of oxidative stresses through the induction of anti-oxidative genes. Nrf2 plays roles in maintaining murine hematopoietic stem cells and fly intestinal stem cells.

Adipocyte Myoglobin Is a Determinant of Energy Expenditure and a Potential Target to Limit Obesity

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Myoglobin, known as a muscle oxygen‐carrying protein, is shown to play a key role in fat cells that burn energy. Loss of myoglobin reduces the body's ability to generate heat and increases obesity risk, while restoring it improves metabolism. The study identifies myoglobin as a regulator of fat burning and a potential target to enhance energy ...

Functional Suppression of SCAP Triggers Endoplasmic Reticulum Stress‐Dependent Ferroptosis by Impairing Cholesterol Metabolism in Gastric Cancer

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study reveals a novel GC therapy targeting cholesterol homeostasis. Inhibiting the SCAP sterol‐sensing domain causes lethal ER stress via cholesterol accumulation, paradoxically forcing continuous synthesis that triggers ferroptosis. The findings link sterol sensing, metabolic dysregulation, and ferroptosis, establishing an anti‐cancer paradigm ...

REGγ Suppresses Ferroptosis and Induces Drug Resistance by Degrading WDR6 in Chondrosarcoma

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Here, we identified REGγ as a susceptibility factor in chondrosarcoma. Our study demonstrates that abnormally activated REGγ‐20S proteasome promotes chondrosarcoma development and progression. Further validation in animal models revealed that blocking REGγ function induced ferroptosis, suppressed malignant progression of chondrosarcoma, and uncovered a

Transcription factor Nrf2 regulating the interaction of p16 facilitates hydroquinone-induced malignant transformation of TK6 cells by accelerating cell proliferation

Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety
The nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) is overexpressed in multiple tumor cells. Nevertheless, the role of Nrf2 in malignant transformation induced by hydroquinone (HQ) is unknown.

Evaluation of polyethylene microplastics toxicity using Nrf2/ARE and MAPK/Nrf2 signaling pathways

Toxicology Mechanisms and Methods
Microplastics (MPs) have emerged as a serious global environmental threat due to their resistance to degradation and persistence in ecosystems. Given their potential risks to human health, it is essential to thoroughly investigate the mechanisms of toxicity and associated health consequences.

ROS‐Targeted Nanomotor Therapy in OA: Cartilage Protection and Pain Relief

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
ROS‐responsive NM@MET nanomotors utilize elevated ROS in osteoarthritic joints to promote deep penetration into cartilage and synovium and enable sustained metformin release. By scavenging ROS, regulating NRF2/KEAP1 signaling, protecting chondrocytes, suppressing synovial inflammation, and attenuating nociceptive signaling, NM@MET alleviates pain and ...

Mechanism of Keap1-Nrf2-HO-1/GPX4 signal in blocking epileptic hippocampal neuron ferroptosis and intervention effect of Caogouzhimu decoction

Pakistan Journal of Pharmaceutical Sciences
Background: The pathogenesis of epilepsy is closely associated with ferroptosis in hippocampal neurons. The Keap1-Nrf2-HO-1/GPX4 signaling pathway serves as a crucial endogenous antioxidant system and plays a significant role in regulating cellular ...
