Mechanisms of Keap1/Nrf2 modulation in bacterial infections: implications in persistence and clearance.

Front Immunol

Pathogenic bacteria trigger complex molecular interactions in hosts that are characterized mainly by an increase in reactive oxygen species (ROS) as well as an inflammation-associated response. To counteract oxidative damage, cells respond through protective mechanisms to promote resistance and avoid tissue damage and infection; among these cellular mechanisms the activation or inhibition of the nuclear factor E2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) is frequently observed. The transcription factor Nrf2 is considered the regulator of several hundred cytoprotective and antioxidant genes.

Article Synopsis
  • A significant number of patients experience chronic pain after surgery, highlighting the urgent need for predictive models that consider bio-psycho-social and physiological factors.
  • A study involving male volunteers assessed pain characteristics, psychological factors, and blood proteomics before and after an experimental incision to predict outcomes related to pain intensity and hyperalgesia.
  • The results revealed that a combination of diverse parameters could predict pain responses more accurately than single features, identified specific protein signatures associated with inflammation, and suggested repurposing existing medications for better pain management.

Cytokines are small proteins that are critical for controlling the growth and activity of hematopoietic cells by binding to cell surface receptors and transmitting signals across membranes. The β common (βc) cytokine receptor family, consisting of the granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF), interleukin (IL)-3, and IL-5 cytokine receptors, is an architype of the heterodimeric cytokine receptor systems. We now know that signaling by cytokine receptors is not always an "all or none" phenomenon.
