An nrf2/small maf heterodimer mediates the induction of phase ii detoxifying enzyme genes through antioxidant response elements

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that Nrf2 is essential for the transcriptional induction of phase II enzymes and the presence of a coordinate transcriptional regulatory mechanism for phase II enzyme genes and the nrf2-deficient mice may prove to be a very useful model for the in vivo analysis of chemical carcinogenesis and resistance to anti-cancer drugs.
Journal ArticleDOI

Transcription Factor Nrf2 Coordinately Regulates a Group of Oxidative Stress-inducible Genes in Macrophages

TL;DR: It is shown that Nrf2 controls the expression of a group of electrophile- and oxidative stress-inducible proteins and activities, which includes heme oxygenase-1, A170, peroxiredoxin MSP23, and cystine membrane transport (system xc −) activity.
Journal ArticleDOI

Keap1-null mutation leads to postnatal lethality due to constitutive Nrf2 activation

TL;DR: These experiments show that Keap1 acts upstream of Nrf2 in the cellular response to oxidative and xenobiotic stress, and breeding to NRF2-deficient mice reversed the phenotypic Keap 1 deficiencies.
Journal ArticleDOI

Hemoprotein Bach1 regulates enhancer availability of heme oxygenase‐1 gene

TL;DR: regulation of ho‐1 involves a direct sensing of heme levels by Bach1 (by analogy to lac repressor sensitivity to lactose), generating a simple feedback loop whereby the substrate effects repressor–activator antagonism.
