文摘

Role of the Keap1–Nrf2 system in cellular response to cadmium was examined.

We used bovine aortic endothelial cells as a model of the vascular endothelium.

Exposure of cells to cadmium resulted in modification of Keap1 and Nrf2 activation.

Keap1–Nrf2 system participated in the modulation of metallothionein-1/2 expression.

Nrf2 was recruited to the antioxidant response element of MT2 promoter region.
