Abstract excerpt
BRCA1 is closely related to the pathogenesis of breast cancer. The activity of BRCA1 promoter is regulated by transcriptional factors. The transcription factor Nrf2 (Nuclear factor-erythroid-2p45-related factor 2) is a potent transcriptional activator and plays a central role in inducible expression of many cytoprotective genes. In this report, we found that over-expression of Nrf2 stimulated BRCA1 expression,...
