Abstrakt: We studied the expression of Nrf2 transcription factor and antioxidant system proteins in drug-resistant murine leukemia strains P388 in vivo, as well as the redox status of cells under conditions of induced oxidative stress. Immunoblotting and real-time PCR showed that the cyclophosphamide-resistant strain P388 (P388/CP) exhibits Nrf2-mediated drug resistance. Cells of the P388/CP strain are characterized by high expression of Nrf2, which leads to a significant increase in the expression of ARE genes and antioxidant system proteins, as well as to the effective maintenance of redox homeostasis under conditions of induced oxidative stress. Taking into account the important role of Nrf2 overexpression in reducing the effectiveness of chemotherapy in patients with different leukemias, the P388/CP strain can be of great interest as a model in the development of new drugs for the treatment of malignant neoplasms.
