Overview

nrf2 sirna is a synthetic or bioengineered small interfering RNA (siRNA) designed to specifically target and silence the expression of the transcription factor Nuclear factor (erythroid-derived 2)-like 2 (NRF2)[1]. NRF2 is a master regulator of cellular antioxidant responses, and its overexpression is implicated in resistance to chemotherapy and poor prognosis in certain cancers, such as osteosarcoma[1]. The mechanism of action of nrf2 sirna involves entering the cell, being processed by the RNA-induced silencing complex (RISC), and directing the degradation of NRF2 mRNA, leading to reduced NRF2 protein expression. This results in downregulation of NRF2-regulated antioxidant enzymes (e.g., heme oxygenase-1, NAD(P)H:quinone oxidoreductase 1), increased intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS), and enhanced sensitivity to chemotherapeutic agents like doxorubicin, cisplatin, and sorafenib in cancer cells[1]. Currently, nrf2 sirna is primarily used as a research tool in preclinical studies and is not an approved therapeutic agent[1].
