Figure 6From: Antioxidant components of naturally-occurring oils exhibit marked anti-inflammatory activity in epithelial cells of the human upper respiratory systemRapid translocation of Nrf2 to the nucleus. Increase in levels of Nrf2 in the nuclear protein fraction of cells observed at 2 hr following treatment with orange oil compared to buffer and soy oil-treated controls. Representative blots from one of three separate experiments are shown above. Mean Nrf2 blot densities normalized to those of their corresponding nuclear lamin B for all three experiments presented below. Bars represent mean ± SEM.Back to article page
