Adults above 40 : Overpower age-related decline in glutathione, combating oxidative stress for energy
With the metabolic reprogramming of NADPH, cancer cells increase the demand of NADPH for antioxidative effects and anabolic reactions
Although we did not observe significant changes in NF-B levels in our study, other transcription factors or regulatory mechanisms may compensate for reduced NRF2 activity by maintaining or even increasing antioxidant enzyme expression as a protective mechanism against oxidative damage

Plexin expression was knocked down using two different siRNA oligos against PlexinB1: siPlexin B1-1 ( GAGAGGAGCCGACUACGUA ), siPlexin B1-2 ( GCAGAGACCUCACCUUUGA ), against PlexinB2: siPlexin B2-1 ( GCAACAAGCUGCUGUACGC ) siPlexin B2-2 ( UGAACACCCUCGUGGCACU ), and against PlexinB3: Plexin B3-1 ( CAAAGUGACUGACCUGUGA ), Plexin B3-2 ( AAACGGACCCUGAAUGAUA ) (siGenome Dharmacon, Lafayette, CO, USA), together with siGENOME non-targeting siRNA pool (Dharmacon) as control
