The oxidative stress could have a dual action on glutathione S-transferase (GST) P1-1 metabolism: transcriptional induction and/or polymerization. The former should represent a form of adaptation to oxidative stress and contribute to protect the cell, the latter one should activate apoptosis via c-J
## Abstract Neuroblastomas are pediatric tumors originating from immature neuroblasts in the developing peripheral nervous system. Differentiation therapies could help lowering the high mortality due to rapid tumor progression to advanced stages. Oleic acid has been demonstrated to promote neuronal
