The phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K)/Akt pathway elicits a survival signal against
multiple apoptotic insults. In addition, phase II enzymes such as heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1)
protect cells against diverse toxins and oxidative stress. In this work, we describe a link
between these defense systems at the level of transcriptional regulation of the antioxidant
enzyme HO-1. The herb-derived phenol carnosol induced HO-1 expression at both mRNA
and protein levels. Luciferase reporter assays indicated that carnosol targeted the mouse …
