Moreover, suppression of the NRF2 activity with the inhibitor Brusatol significantly reduced the cell survival of A549 cells, without further sensitizing them to EGFR TKI-induced cell death, suggesting that suppression of NRF2 can be used to induce autophagy-independent cell death in NSCLC tumors [330]. Here, EGFR is linked to non-small cell lung carcinoma.
