Proteostasis Decline and Redox Imbalance in Age-Related Diseases: The Therapeutic Potential of NRF2 by Brigitta Buttari, Antonella Tramutola, Ana I. Rojo, Niki Chondrogianni, Sarmistha Saha, Alessandra Berry, Letizia Giona, Joana P. Miranda, Elisabetta Profumo, Sergio Davinelli, Andreas Daiber, Antonio Cuadrado, Fabio Di Domenico

“…Nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (NRF2) is a master regulator of cellular homeostasis, overseeing the expression of a wide array of genes involved in cytoprotective processes such as antioxidant and proteostasis control, mitochondrial function, inflammation, and the metabolism of lipids and glucose. The accumulation of misfolded proteins triggers the release, stabilization, and nuclear translocation of NRF2, which in turn enhances the expression of critical components of both the proteasomal and lysosomal degradation pathways. …”

Autophagic flux-lipid droplet biogenesis cascade sustains mitochondrial fitness in colorectal cancer cells adapted to acidosis by Xiaojie Liu, Xue Sun, Wenqing Mu, Yanan Li, Wenqing Bu, Tingting Yang, Jia Zhang, Rui Liu, Jiayu Ren, Jin Zhou, Peishan Li, Yufang Shi, Changshun Shao
