Kirenol Inhibits B[a]P-Induced Oxidative Stress and Apoptosis in Endothelial Cells via Modulation of the Nrf2 Signaling Pathway

Figure 7

Role of Nrf2 in KRL-induced HO-1 and NQO-1 expression in endothelial cells. (a) HUVECs cells were transfected transiently with siRNA-Nrf2 and treated with 25 μmol KRL. Protein was isolated and analyzed for the measurement of Nrf2 protein by western blot analysis. (b) Western blot analysis to determine the levels of NQO-1 and HO-1.
