Nrf2 activation promotes lung cancer metastasis by blocking degradation of Bach1

Purpose: The goal of this study is to analyze the transcriptional pathways regulated by Fbxo22 and Keap1 in mouse lung adeno carcinoma cells. Methods: mouse lung adeno carcinoma cells either Keap1 wild type (KP) or mutant (KPK), have been transfected for 3 days with siRNA targeting Fbxo22. Knock down efficiency has been evaluated by western blot (using specific antibody for Fbxo22) and qPCR (using specific oligos for Fbxo22) . Results: The transcriptomic analysis helps us to support our finding that loss of either Keap1 or Fbxo22 induces metastases Overall design: All 12 samples generated by deep sequencing in triplicate
