Antioxidant Enzyme Induction
- Molecular classification
- Other (Biological Process)
01
Overview
Antioxidant enzyme induction refers to the process by which cells increase the production of antioxidant enzymes to counteract oxidative stress. This process is crucial for protecting cells from damage caused by reactive oxygen species (ROS) and is mediated by transcription factors like Nrf2. The induction of antioxidant enzymes plays a significant role in various diseases, including cancer and neurodegenerative disorders, by mitigating oxidative damage and promoting cellular health.
