A commonly occurring mutant form of p53, p53-R273H, contributes to the impaired detoxification of reactive oxygen species (ROS) by decreasing the nuclear factor erythroid 2 (NF-E2)-related factor 2 (NRF2)-mediated expression of phase 2 ROS-detoxifying enzymes, quinone oxidoreductase 1 (NQO1) and heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1), which resulted in a reduced antioxidant response and imbalance of redox homeostasis in lung or colon cancer cells [70, 86, 87] (Fig. 3). Here, NFE2L2 is linked to colonic neoplasm.
