Resveratrol inhibits paraquat-induced oxidative stress and fibrogenic response by activating the nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 pathway.
Nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) is an antioxidant-activated transcription factor that recently emerged as a critical regulator of cellular defense against oxidative and inflammatory lesions. Resveratrol (Res) is a natural phytoalexin that exhibits multiple therapeutic potentials, including antioxidative and anti-inflammatory effects in animals. Paraquat (PQ) is the second mos...
متن کاملHuman CYP2A6 is regulated by nuclear factor-erythroid 2 related factor 2.
Human CYP2A6 is responsible for the metabolism of nicotine and coumarin as well as the metabolic activation of tobacco-related nitrosamines. Earlier studies revealed that CYP2A6 activity was increased by dietary cadmium or cruciferous vegetables, but the underlying mechanisms remain to be clarified. In the present study, we investigated the possibility that Nrf2 might be involved in the regulat...
متن کاملNuclear factor erythroid-2 related factor 2 (Nrf2)-mediated protein quality control in cardiomyocytes.
Protein quality control (PQC) acts to minimize the level and toxicity of malfolded proteins in the cell. It is performed by an elaborate network of molecular chaperones and targeted protein degradation pathways. PQC monitors and maintains protein homeostasis or proteostasis in the cells. Whilst chaperones may actively promote refolding of malfolded proteins, the malfolded proteins which cannot ...
متن کاملHuman age‑related cataracts: epigenetic suppression of the nuclear factor erythroid 2‑related factor 2‑mediated antioxidant system.
Human aging is a multifactorial process. The most prominent effects of aging include visual impairments, particularly age‑related cataracts (ARC). Several studies have reported that oxidative stress and failure of the antioxidant system are the major factors contributing to lens oxidation. The present study focused on the nuclear factor erythroid 2‑related factor 2 (Nrf2)/kelch‑like ECH‑associa...
متن کاملRifampicin Attenuated Global Cerebral Ischemia Injury via Activating the Nuclear Factor Erythroid 2-Related Factor Pathway
Background: Recent studies have found that rifampicin has neuroprotective properties in neurodegenerative diseases. However, the exact mechanisms of action remain unclear. The nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) has been considered a potential target for neuroprotection. In this study, we examined whether rifampicin exhibits beneficial effects mediated by the Nrf2 pathway after g...
