Abstract

The ability to counteract oxidative stress (OS) plays a pivotal role in neuronal survival. Thedifferentiation of neuroblastoma (NB) cells with retinoic acid (RA) generates a small amount of ROSinvolved in neurite elongation (Nitti, 2010). However, differentiated cells are more sensitive to the exposureto OS than undifferentiated ones (Piras, 2017). In the present study, we analyzed the behavior of two RAdifferentiatedNB cell lines, SH-SY5Y and SK-N-BE(2C) in response to OS. Furthermore, the regulation ofHO-1 expression has been analyzed evaluating Nrf2 as the main activator and Bach1 as negative regulator.
