The double-edged sword of Nrf2: subversion of redox homeostasis during the evolution of cancer
Abstract
Low levels of Nrf2 activity predispose cells to chemical carcinogenesis. Surprisingly, Padmanabhan et al. (2006) provide evidence in a recent issue of Molecular Cell to support the notion that elevated Nrf2 activity may also play a role in the evolution of cancer.
