Nrf2 Suppresses Oxidative Stress and Inflammation in App Knock-In Alzheimer’s Disease Model Mice

Nrf2 (NF-E2-related-factor 2) is a stress-responsive transcription factor that protects cells against oxidative stresses. To clarify whether Nrf2 prevents Alzheimer’s disease (AD), AD model AppNL-G-F/NL-G-F knock-in (AppNLGF) mice were studied in combination with genetic Nrf2 induction model Keap1FA/FA mice. While AppNLGF mice displayed shorter latency to escape than wild-type mice in the passive-avoidance task, the impairment was improved in...
