1 Recent research has outlined that Dimethyl Fumarate (DMF) functions as a gene regulator via multiple pathways, critical among which is the NRF2 cytoprotective cascade. Dimethyl Fumarate NFE2 like bZIP transcription factor 2 Homo sapiens

3 It is our hypothesis that while the NRF2-KEAP1 inhibitory complex is reported the main pharmacological target for DMF"s NRF dependent functions, no study to date has explored the effects of DMF on DJ-1"s expression, and vice-versa, the possibility of a regulatory inadequacy in the upstream, oxidant-responsive DJ-1 activator of the NRF2 cascade. Dimethyl Fumarate NFE2 like bZIP transcription factor 2 Homo sapiens
