NRF1 expression

The mitochondrial pathway-mediated apoptosis and ferroptosis may represent key mechanisms in regulating tumor cell death. Targeting the Nrf-2/GPX-4/xCT axis offers a novel therapeutic approach for maintaining mitochondrial homeostasis within the cellular microenvironment.

Treatment with a combination of a mixture of three probiotic strains, B. lactis Lafti B94, L. plantarum HA-119, and L. helveticus Lafti L10 for 7 weeks, ameliorates the effects of HFD induced obesity in mice.

NRF1 driven SPIDR transcription by occupying its SE, protecting HCC cells from oxidative stress-induced damage. NRF1 and SPIDR are promising biomarkers for targeting oxidative stress in the treatment of HCC.

However, distinct upstream signaling to Nrf1 dislocation by p97 and its processing by DDI1/2, along with downstream proteasomal expression, may be monitored by mTOR signaling, to various certain extents, depending on distinct experimental settings in different types of cells. Our further evidence has been obtained from DDI1-∕-(DDI2insC) cells, demonstrating that putative effects of mTOR on the rapamycin-responsive signaling to Nrf1 and proteasomes may also be executed partially through a DDI1/2-independent mechanism, albeit the detailed regulatory events remain to be determined.

The ChIP assay confirmed the binding of NRF1 to NOR1. Over-expression of NRF1 attenuated the inhibitory effect of oxidative stress on the proliferation, migration and invasion of U251 cells, which was reversed by knockdown of NOR1.

NRF1 is overexpressed in HCC and promotes HCC progression by activating LPCAT1-ERK1/2-CREB axis. NRF1 is a promising therapeutic target for HCC patients.

Pyrroloquinoline quinone and CoQ10 administration down-regulated the expression levels of miR16-1, miR15a and miR181c. The use of Pyrroloquinoline quinone and CoQ10 is effective on epigenetic factors, miR-15a, miR-16-1 and miR181c are important candidate biomarkers in hepatocellular carcinoma and diseases accompanied by mitochondrial dysfunction.

We also found that exogenous ROS was maintained at a low level by NRF1 in breast cancer cells. our study provides mechanistic insight into the function of NRF1 in breast cancer, indicating that NRF1 may serve as a therapeutic target for breast cancer treatment.

Therapeutic avenues that increase NRF1 expression may serve as an adjunct to conventional treatments for bladder cancer.

Our data indicated the role of NRF1 in EBVaGC progression and the maintenance of EBV latent infection. This provided a new theoretical basis for further NRF1-based anti-cancer therapy.

Our findings demonstrated that Agr regulates the expression of PGC-1α, thereby inducing mitochondrial dysfunction and promoting tumor cell apoptosis. This work highlights the potential of Agr as a promising therapeutic candidate in CRC.

We further show that combination treatments with chemotherapy are conceivable. Collectively, this study indicates that the inhibition of mitochondrial redox signaling is a possible therapeutic option to inhibit the metastatic progression of pancreatic cancer.

Subsequently, NRF1 activates mitochondrial metabolism and biogenesis, thereby promoting CRC progression. In summary, our study reports on a mechanism by which LINC00839 positively regulates NRF1, thus promoting mitochondrial metabolism and biogenesis, as well as CRC progression.

This study demonstrated that upregulation of NRF1 holds the potential to inhibit the metastasis of prostate cancer, possibly through an elevation of mitochondrial biogenesis and the subsequent repression of TGF-β-associated EMT. Therapeutic avenues that increase NRF1 expression may serve as an adjunct to conventional treatments of prostate cancer.

Therefore, this study revealed that NRF1 promotes cancer cell growth via the indirect transcriptional activation of E2F1 and is a potential biomarker in LIHC.

NRF1 and ACOX1 genes and their protein expressions could affect the development of chronic liver disease.

Following overexpression of TFE3, the levels of mTOR-associated markers were restored in NRF-1 knockdown cells. These findings suggest that NRF-1 may regulate the mTOR pathway through TFE3 and regulate the energy metabolism, proliferation and growth of cancer cells by directly regulating the expression of TFE3.

In ChIP experiments, we showed that NRF-1 directly binds to human ACTB and mouse Actb coding regions. Its seems that the transcription of β-actin encoding gene is NRF-1 dependent.

IL-17A increases PD-L1 expression through the p65/NRF1/miR-15b-5p axis and promotes resistance to anti-PD-1 therapy. Blocking IL-17A improved the efficacy of anti-PD-1 therapy in MSS CRC murine models. IL-17A might serve as a therapeutic target to sensitize patients with MSS CRC to ICI therapy.

Metapristone inhibited the endometrial cancer cell growth through regulating the cell apoptosis-related signaling pathway and decreasing the expression of miR-492 and its downstream target genes (Klf5 and Nrf1), which provided the theoretical basis in clinical treatment of endometrial cancer.

Our data suggested new roles for CXCR4 in autophagy and EBV replication in EBVaGC, which further promoted cell survival and persistent latent infection. These new findings can lead to further CXCR4-based anticancer therapy.

Our findings showed how sensitivity to high NRF1 transcriptional activity coupled with its target gene signatures contribute to racial differences in luminal A and TN breast cancer subtypes. This knowledge may be useful in personalized intervention to prevent and treat this clinically challenging problem.

Together, these findings suggest that a combination of subunit displacement and reduced Nrf1 expression may be responsible for c-20S impairment in EAE. The present work provides insights into the dynamics of proteasome expression in the CNS of EAE mice and is the first to explore Nrf1 signaling in an inflammatory demyelinating disorder.

Poor survival outcomes and resistance to Temozolomide therapy were associated with higher NRF1 expression including its targets - LDHA, ZMAT3, NSUN2, ARMC5, NDEL1, CLPTM1L, ALKBH5, YIPF5, PPP2CA, and TFG. These findings suggest that aberrant NRF1 activity may contribute to the pathogenesis of GBM and severity of astrocytoma. Further analyses of NRF1 gene signatures will pave the way for next generation targeted therapies and drug combination strategies for GBM patients.
