“…6, it provides therapeutic benefit to the NRF2 subcluster of pathophenotypes related to glucose metabolism. In fact, SFN reduces hepatic glucose production and improves glucose control in patients with T2DM (Axelsson et al, 2017). Interestingly, some evidence suggests that metformin may be effective in preventing other nonglycemic pathophenotypes of the NRF2 diseasome, including cardiovascular (Nesti and Natali, 2017), respiratory (Sato et al, 2016), digestive (Bauer and Duca, 2016), neurodegenerative (Markowicz-Piasecka et al, 2017), autoimmune (Schuiveling et al, 2017), and neoplastic (Heckman-Stoddard et al, 2017) disorders.…”
