Involvement of ERK-Nrf-2 signaling in ionizing radiation induced cell death in normal and tumor cells.
Prolonged oxidative stress favors tumorigenic environment and inflammation. Oxidative stress may trigger redox adaptation mechanism(s) in tumor cells but not normal cells. This may increase levels of intracellular antioxidants and establish a new redox homeostasis. Nrf-2, a master regulator of batte...
