摘要: Under basal conditions, the antioxidant transcription factor nuclear (erythroid-derived 2)-like 2 (NRF2) is bound to Kelch-like ECH-associated protein 1 (KEAP1) and targeted for proteasomal degradation in cytoplasm. In response cellular injury or chemical treatment, NRF2 dissociates from KEAP1 activates of protective genes defends against injury. LH601A a first-in-class direct inhibitor KEAP1-NRF2 protein-protein interaction. The purpose this study was determine whether signaling human kidney cells. Human embryonic 293 (HEK293) cells were treated with indirect activator, sulforaphane (SFN) 6 16 h. SFN upregulated target heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) (two- sevenfold), thioredoxin (TRX1) (twofold) NAD(P)H quinone oxidoreductase (NQO1) mRNAs (twofold). Both compounds also elevated HO-1 TRX1 expression. Since activation can protect tissues injury, LH601A, interaction may be used defend and/or diseases.
