1 Among these derivatives, bis[2-hydroxybenzylidene]acetone (BHBA) was one of the most potent Nrf2 inducers with minimal toxicity and improved pharmacological properties and was thus selected for further investigation. bis(2-hydroxybenzylidene)acetone NFE2 like bZIP transcription factor 2 Homo sapiens
2 Among these derivatives, bis[2-hydroxybenzylidene]acetone (BHBA) was one of the most potent Nrf2 inducers with minimal toxicity and improved pharmacological properties and was thus selected for further investigation. bis(2-hydroxybenzylidene)acetone NFE2 like bZIP transcription factor 2 Homo sapiens
3 BHBA activated the Nrf2 pathway in the canonical Keap1-Cys151-dependent manner. bis(2-hydroxybenzylidene)acetone NFE2 like bZIP transcription factor 2 Homo sapiens
4 INNOVATION: The curcumin derivative, BHBA, is a potent inducer of Nrf2. bis(2-hydroxybenzylidene)acetone NFE2 like bZIP transcription factor 2 Homo sapiens
5 CONCLUSION: Taken together, our results demonstrate that BHBA, a curcumin analog with improved Nrf2-activating and chemopreventive activities both in vitro and in vivo, could be developed into a chemoprotective pharmacological agent. bis(2-hydroxybenzylidene)acetone NFE2 like bZIP transcription factor 2 Homo sapiens
