1 Lycopene attenuates colistin-induced nephrotoxicity in mice via activation of the Nrf2/HO-1 pathway. Lycopene heme oxygenase 1 Mus musculus
2 Lycopene treatment, especially in the colistin plus lycopene (20 mg/kg) group, significantly downregulated the expression of NF-kappaB mRNA (P < 0.01) but upregulated the expression of nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) and HO-1 mRNA (both P < 0.01) in the kidney compared with the results seen with the colistin group. Lycopene heme oxygenase 1 Mus musculus
3 This effect may be attributed to the antioxidative property of lycopene and its ability to activate the Nrf2/HO-1 pathway. Lycopene heme oxygenase 1 Mus musculus
