1 RESULTS: Ethanol and TGF-beta rapidly increase ROI and reduce GSH in hHeps, causing apoptosis with a release of approximately 40% total LDH after 72 h. Similar to incubation with hemin preincubation and co-incubation of cells with nifedipine, verapamil and quercetin significantly reduce oxidative stress and resulting cellular damage, in a dose-dependent manner, by initiating nuclear translocation of Nrf2 which in turn induces HO-1 under the control of p38 and ERK.
