Abstract excerpt
Nrf2 (nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2) is an antioxidant transcription factor. AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) functions as a central regulator of cell survival in response to stressful stimuli. Nrf2 should be coordinated with the cell survival pathway controlled by AMPK, but so far the mechanistic connections remain undefined. This study investigated the role of AMPK in Nrf2 trafficking and its...
