The transcription factor nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (NRF2) is well recognized as a critical regulator of redox, metabolic, and protein homeostasis, as well as the regulation of inflammation. An age-associated decline in NRF2 activity may allow oxidative stress to remain unmitigated and affect key features associated with the aging ...

Oxidative stress-induced melanocyte apoptosis is linked to the immune system and plays a critical role in the pathogenesis of vitiligo. Aquaporin-3 (AQP3), which is downregulated in vitiligo keratinocytes, regulates intracellular H2O2 accumulation. However, the role of AQP3 in oxidative stress is uncertain in vitiligo. This study investigated the e...

Inflammation and oxidative stress can contribute to the etiology of metabolic and chronic illnesses. The ability to prevent oxidative stress induced diseases such as cancer, cardiovascular disease, Alzheimer's disease, and others has been the subject of global research. Drug-induced liver injury (DILI) pathogenesis can be either due to oxidative st...

The growing incidence of myopia worldwide justifies the search for efficient methods of myopia prevention. Numerous pharmacological, optical, and lifestyle measures have already been utilized, but there remains a need to explore more practical and predictable methods for myopia control. This paper presents a review of the most recent studies on the...

The current study tries to discuss the functional role of microRNA-497 (miR-497) in diabetic neuropathic pain (DNP) and the related downstream mechanism. Bioinformatics analysis was implemented for the identification of differentially expressed miRNAs and genes. DNP was simulated in rats through intraperitoneal injection of streptozotocin. The expr...

The nuclear factor E2-related factor 2-Kelch-like Ech-associated protein (NRF2-KEAP1) pathway is a major cellular defense mechanism against oxidative stress. However, the role of NRF2-KEAP1 signaling in the development of chronic liver disease remains unclear. Clinical liver specimens from 50 hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) developed from non-alcoho...

Objectives Nuclear factor erythroid-2-related factor 2 (NRF2), a transcriptional gene factor related to nuclear factor erythroid 2, plays a role in the development of gliomas with isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH) mutation. Its impact on tumour recurrence has seldom been investigated. Methods A group of 34 patients diagnosed with Grade 4 astrocytoma w...

Red color conversion materials have often been used in conventional white LEDs (light-emitting diodes) to enhance the insufficient deep-red component and thus improve the color-rendering property. Quantum dots (QDs) are one of the candidates for this due to their flexibility in controlling the emission wavelength, which is attributed to the quantum...

Ferroptosis, a type of programmed cell death triggered by oxidative stress, was suspected to play a role in ulcerative colitis. Indigo naturalis is highly effective against ulcerative colitis, but its mechanism is unclear. This study found that indigo naturalis treatment suppressed ferroptosis. We analyzed 770 mRNA expressions of patients with ulce...
