## Abstract **Scope:** Cytoprotective gene products, __e.g.__ phase II β and antioxidant enzymes, are important in cellular redox homeostasis. A common feature of these genes is binding sites for transcription factor nuclear factor erythroidβ2βrelated factor 2 (Nrf2), named electrophile response el

NAD(P)H:quinone oxidoreductase (QR) and glutathione-S-transferases (GSTs) are among the enzymes believed to protect an organism against oxidative stress. To test if redox-cycling compounds regulate the expression of these enzymes in cells of neural origin, primary cultures of rat cerebellar neurons
## Abstract Here we report that human nonsmall cell lung carcinomas overexpress macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF) and thioredoxin (Trx), 2 oxidoreductases with cytokine function, and contain more abundant nonprotein thiols (glutathione and cysteine) than nonneoplastic lung tissues. Cell
