Abstract

Cancer is one of the common diseases that affects people in the society, the prevalence of which has decreased somewhat in recent years. Various genetic and environmental factors play a role in the development and progression of cancer. NRF2 is a transcriptional regulator that controls the expression of antioxidant response element-related genes. It plays an important role in regulating the physiological and pathophysiological consequences of oxidant exposure. NRF2 is also responsible for regulating the expression of various cellular protective genes. NRF2 activity is regulated at multiple levels including protein stability, transcription, and post-transcription. The Keap1-Cul3-Rbx1 axis is the most prominent regulator of NRF2 activity. Apoptosis is a type of programmed cell death that is initiated by two intrinsic and extrinsic pathways. Caspases play a major role in this cell death pathway. Apoptosis pathway is related to many cells signaling pathways that are interconnected. Disruption in one pathway affects the other pathway. One of these signaling pathways is the NRF2 pathway, which is associated with apoptosis, which are interconnected and play an important role in disease prevention or progression. Therefore, in this study, we decided to investigate the relationship between NRF2 and apoptosis in cancer.

期刊介绍： Medical Molecular Morphology is an international forum for researchers in both basic and clinical medicine to present and discuss new research on the structural mechanisms and the processes of health and disease at the molecular level. The structures of molecules, organelles, cells, tissues, and organs determine their normal function. Disease is thus best understood in terms of structural changes in these different levels of biological organization, especially in molecules and molecular interactions as well as the cellular localization of chemical components. Medical Molecular Morphology welcomes articles on basic or clinical research in the fields of cell biology, molecular biology, and medical, veterinary, and dental sciences using techniques for structural research such as electron microscopy, confocal laser scanning microscopy, enzyme histochemistry, immunohistochemistry, radioautography, X-ray microanalysis, and in situ hybridization. Manuscripts submitted for publication must contain a statement to the effect that all human studies have been reviewed by the appropriate ethics committee and have therefore been performed in accordance with the ethical standards laid down in an appropriate version of the 1964 Declaration of Helsinki. It should also be stated clearly in the text that all persons gave their informed consent prior to their inclusion in the study. Details that might disclose the identity of the subjects under study should be omitted.
