Activation of the Nuclear Erythroid 2-Related Factor 2 Antioxidant Responsive Element (Nrf2-ARE) Signaling Pathway Alleviates Acute Graft-Versus-Host Disease by Reducing Oxidative Stress and Inhibiting Infiltration of Inflammatory Cells in an Allogeneic Stem Cell Transplantation Mouse Model.

CONCLUSIONS The Nrf2-ARE signaling pathway plays a vital role in preventing aGVHD in an HSCT mouse model by regulating the expression of the downstream antioxidant genes NQO1 and HO-1 and by inhibiting the local inflammatory reaction. PMID: 30148822 [PubMed - in process]
