Abstract:Nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (NRF2) is an essential transcription factor that is involved in cellular defense against oxidative stress and is assumed to be an important molecule in the transcription and regulation of cytoprotective genes. NRF2 is not only responsible for protecting healthy cells but plays a role in neoplastic cells once high expression of NRF2 has been observed in cancer cells. However, the increase in NRF2 levels may be correlated with resistance to therapy, making it interesti… Show more
