Lee DS, Kim JE (2022) P2X7 receptor augments LPS-induced nitrosative stress by regulating Nrf2 and GSH levels in the mouse hippocampus. Antioxidants (Basel) 11(4):778. doi: 10.3390/antiox11040778 PMID: 35453462
Objective: To elucidate whether P2X7R affects nuclear factor-erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) activity/expression and glutathione (GSH) synthesis under nitrosative stress in response to lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced neuroinflammation.
Summary: The findings indicate that P2X7R may augment LPS-induced neuroinflammation by leading to Nrf2 degradation, aberrant glutamate-glutamine cycle, and impaired cystine/cysteine uptake, which would inhibit GSH biosynthesis.
