Data in support of sustained upregulation of adaptive redox homeostasis mechanisms caused by KRIT1 loss-of-function.

ABSTRACT: This article contains additional data related to the original research article entitled "KRIT1 loss-of-function induces a chronic Nrf2-mediated adaptive homeostasis that sensitizes cells to oxidative stress: implication for Cerebral Cavernous Malformation disease" (Antognelli et al., 2017) [1]. Data were obtained by si-RNA-mediated gene silencing, qRT-PCR, immunoblotting, and immunohistochemistry studies, and enzymatic activity and apoptosis assays. Overall, they support, complement and extend original findings demonstrating that KRIT1 loss-of-function induces a redox-sensitive and JNK-dependent sustained upregulation of the master Nrf2 antioxidant defense pathway and its downstream target Glyoxalase 1 (Glo1), and a drop in intracellular levels of AP-modified Hsp70 and Hsp27 proteins, lead
