The aim of this study was to evaluate the expression Nrf2 (Nuclear factor-erythroid 2-p45 derived factor 2) and Keap1 (Kelch-like ECH-associated protein 1) genes and Bcl-2 (B-cell lymphoma 2), Bcl-XL (B-cell lymphoma-extra large), Bax (Bcl2-associated X protein) apoptotic pathway genes in acute myeloid leukemia patients. Here, BAX is linked to acute myeloid leukemia.
