Nrf2 suppresses macrophage inflammatory response by blocking proinflammatory cytokine transcription

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that Nrf2 interferes with lipopolysaccharide-induced transcriptional upregulation of proinflammatory cytokines, including IL-6 and IL-1β, and establishes a molecular basis for an NRF2-mediated anti-inflammation approach.
Journal ArticleDOI

MafA Is a Key Regulator of Glucose-Stimulated Insulin Secretion

TL;DR: It is reported that MafA mutant mice display intolerance to glucose and develop diabetes mellitus, and analysis revealed that insulin 1, insulin 2, Pdx1, Beta2, and Glut-2 transcripts are diminished in MfA-deficient mice, showing that MAFA is a key regulator of glucose-stimulated insulin secretion in vivo.
Journal ArticleDOI

Nrf2 Prevents Initiation but Accelerates Progression through the Kras Signaling Pathway during Lung Carcinogenesis

TL;DR: Nrf2 has two roles during carcinogenesis, one of which is preventive during tumor initiation and the second that promotes malignant progression, whereas Nrf2 activators are more suited for lung cancer prevention.
Journal ArticleDOI

Nrf2-deficiency creates a responsive microenvironment for metastasis to the lung

TL;DR: A novel function for Nrf2 is revealed in the prevention of cancer metastasis, presumably by its ability to preserve the redox balance in the hematopoietic and immune systems.
