Article Title: Nrf2 pathway mediates copper oxide nanoparticle-induced exacerbation of allergic asthma

doi: 10.1016/j.redox.2026.104180

Figure Lengend Snippet: Effects of CuONPs on allergic inflammation and oxidative stress in OVA-induced asthmatic mice. (A) Airway hyperresponsiveness assessed as total respiratory system resistance in response to methacholine challenge (10, 20, and 40 mg/mL). (B–F) Total and differential inflammatory cell counts in BALF. (G–L) IL-1β, IL-6, TNF-α, IL-4, IL-5, and IL-13 levels in BALF, measured by ELISA. (M and N) Total IgE and OVA specific IgE levels in serum. (O and P) MDA levels and SOD activity in lung tissue. Data are presented as means ± SD (n = 6 mice/group). ∗∗ p < 0.01 and ∗∗∗ p < 0.001 versus NC group. # p < 0.05, ## p < 0.01, and ### p < 0.001 versus OVA group.

Article Snippet: BALF was centrifuged at 300× g for 10 min at 4 °C, and the supernatant was stored for cytokine analysis using commercially available enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) kits to quantify IL-1β, IL-6, tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α, IL-4, IL-5, and IL-13 (R&D Systems, Minneapolis, MN, USA; Cat. No. MLB00C, M6000B, MTA00B, M4000B, M5000, and M1300CB, respectively).

Figure Lengend Snippet: Effects of Nrf2 overexpression on allergic inflammation and oxidative stress in CuONP-exposed asthmatic mice. (A) Immunofluorescence analysis of lung tissue from mice administered PBS or AAV2/8-GFP via intratracheal instillation. (B) Airway hyperresponsiveness assessed as total respiratory system resistance in response to methacholine challenge (10, 20, and 40 mg/mL). (C–G) Total and differential inflammatory cell counts in BALF. (H–M) IL-1β, IL-6, TNF-α, IL-4, IL-5, and IL-13 levels in BALF, measured by ELISA. (N and O) Total IgE and OVA specific IgE levels in serum. (P and Q) MDA levels and SOD activity in lung tissue. Data are presented as means ± SD (n = 3 mice/group for panels A; n = 6 mice/group for panels B–Q). In panel B, ## p < 0.01 indicates significant differences between GFP-NC and GFP-OVA, and ∗∗ p < 0.01 indicates significant differences between GFP-OVA + CuONPs and Nrf2-OVA + CuONPs. For panels C–Q, ∗ p < 0.05, ∗∗ p < 0.01, and ∗∗∗ p < 0.001 indicate significant differences between AAV-GFP and AAV-Nrf2 within each condition.
