摘要:
NF-E2-related factor 2 (NRF2) regulates transcription of phase II cytoprotective enzymes to protect normal cells against oxidative stress. However, a high level of NRF2 offers a growth advantage, chemoresistance, and radioresistance in cancer. In the present study, we have identified convallatoxin as a novel inhibitor of NRF2/ARE. Suppression of NRF2 by convallatoxin was not transcriptionally mediated, but regulated at the level of proteolysis. Convallatoxin activated GSK-3 beta and suppression of NRF2 by convallatoxin required the Neh6 domain. Convallatoxin sensitised A549 cells to 5-fluorouracil-mediated cell death by promoting apoptosis. Together, our results provide evidence that convallatoxin might be useful as a chemotherapeutic adjuvant due to its ability to suppress NRF2/ARE.
