Pharmacological Activation of Nrf2 Enhances Functional Liver Regeneration.

TLDR
In this paper, bardoxolone methyl (CDDO-Me), a potent activator of Nrf2 that has entered clinical development, was administered to wild-type and non-Nrf2 null mice and then subjected to two-thirds partial hepatectomy.

Novel NRF2‐activated cancer treatments utilizing synthetic lethality

TL;DR: The mechanisms through which acquired NRF2 hyperactivation can result in resistance of tumours to immune checkpoint inhibitor therapies in addition to classical chemotherapeutics are discussed, and it is proposed that using a synthetic lethal strategy mediated byNRF2-target gene-dependent bioactivation of prodrugs represents a promising strategy to specifically enhance toxicity to heretofore untreatable NRF 2-hyperactivated human tumours.

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.
