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

Natural Products as Modulators of Nrf2 Signaling Pathway in Neuroprotection
International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2023 Neurodegenerative diseases (NDs) affect the West due to the increase in life expectancy. Nervous cells accumulate oxidative damage, which is one of the factors that triggers and accelerates neurodegeneration. However, cells have mechanisms that scavenge reactive oxygen species (ROS) and alleviate oxidative stress (OS).

Glutathione Metabolism in Renal Cell Carcinoma Progression and Implications for Therapies [PDF]
, 2019 A significantly increased level of the reactive oxygen species (ROS) scavenger glutathione (GSH) has been identified as a hallmark of renal cell carcinoma (RCC). The proposed mechanism for increased GSH levels is to counteract damaging ROS to sustain the

Metabolic reprogramming identifies the most aggressive lesions at early phases of hepatic carcinogenesis [PDF]
, 2016 Metabolic changes are associated with cancer, but whether they are just bystander effects of deregulated oncogenic signaling pathways or characterize early phases of tumorigenesis remains unclear.
