A protective role of nuclear factor-erythroid 2-related factor-2 (Nrf2) in inflammatory disorders.
Nuclear factor-erythroid 2-related factor-2 (Nrf2) is a key transcription factor that plays a central role in cellular defense against oxidative and electrophilic insults by timely induction of antioxidative and phase-2 detoxifying enzymes and related stress-response proteins. The 5'-flanking regions of genes encoding these cytoprotective proteins contain a specific consensus sequence termed an...
متن کاملProtective role of nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 in the hemorrhagic shock-induced inflammatory response.
Hemorrhagic shock (HS) following trauma or major surgery significantly contributes to mortality. However, the mechanisms through which HS activates the inflammatory response are not yet fully understood. Nuclear factor-erythroid 2 (NF-E2) p45-related factor-2 (Nrf2), a bZIP transcription factor, is a master regulator of robust cytoprotective defenses. The present study investigated the role of ...
متن کاملMyeloid deletion of nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 increases atherosclerosis and liver injury.
OBJECTIVE To determine the impact of hematopoietic deletion of nuclear factor- (erythroid-derived 2) like 2 factor (Nrf2) on the development of atherosclerosis and liver injury in an obese, hypercholesterolemic mouse model. METHODS AND RESULTS Two-month-old male low-density lipoprotein receptor-deficient mice were lethally irradiated and transplanted with either wild type or Nrf2-deficient (N...
متن کاملResveratrol Preconditioning Protects Against Cerebral Ischemic Injury via Nuclear Erythroid 2-Related Factor 2.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Nuclear erythroid 2 related factor 2 (Nrf2) is an astrocyte-enriched transcription factor that has previously been shown to upregulate cellular antioxidant systems in response to ischemia. Although resveratrol preconditioning (RPC) has emerged as a potential neuroprotective therapy, the involvement of Nrf2 in RPC-induced neuroprotection and mitochondrial reactive oxygen s...
متن کاملRole of Nuclear Factor Erythroid 2-Related Factor 2 in Diabetic Nephropathy
Diabetic nephropathy (DN) is manifested as increased urinary protein level, decreased glomerular filtration rate, and final renal dysfunction. DN is the leading cause of end-stage renal disease worldwide and causes a huge societal healthcare burden. Since satisfied treatments are still limited, exploring new strategies for the treatment of this disease is urgently needed. Oxidative stress takes...
