Abstract
One of the most important factors involved in the response to oxidative stress (OS) is the nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2), which regulates the expression of components such as antioxidative stress proteins and enzymes. Under normal conditions, Kelch-like ECH-associated protein 1 (Keap1) keeps Nrf2 in the cytoplasm, thus preventing its translocation to the nucleus and inhibiting its role. It has been established that Nrf2 has a dual function; on the one hand, it promotes angiogenesis and cancer cell metastasis while causing resistance to drugs and chemotherapy. On the other hand, Nrf2 increases expression and proliferation of glutathione to protect cells against OS. p53 is a tumour suppressor that activates the apoptosis pathway in aging and cancer cells in addition to stimulating the glutaminolysis and antioxidant pathways. Cancer cells use the antioxidant ability of p53 against OS. Therefore, in the present study, we discussed function of Nrf2 and p53 in breast cancer (BC) cells to elucidate their role in protection or destruction of cancer cells as well as their drug resistance or antioxidant properties.

Abstract
Similar to many other diseases, the etiology of Parkinson's disease (PD) is multifactorial and includes both genetic and environmental factors. Exposure to pesticides and the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in the body, mainly in electron transporter complexes 1 and 2 in the inner mitochondrial membrane, are two primary environmental risk factors for this disease. Increased accumulation of ROS and oxidative stress (OS) trigger a series of reactions that can lead to the aggregation of misfolded proteins, DNA damage, autophagy, and apoptosis, which may adversely affect cell function. These processes cause diseases such as coronary artery disease (CAD), Alzheimer's disease (AD), and PD. As indicated in previous studies, ROS is considered a critical regulator in the progression of PD. The human body contains several antioxidant molecules, such as vitamin A, vitamin C, bilirubin, and uric acid, as well as antioxidant enzymes including paraoxonase (PON), glutathione reductase (GR), glutathione peroxidase (GPx), catalase (CAT), and superoxide dismutase (SOD). Therefore, based on the canonical function of the antioxidant enzymes in PD, In the present review, we attempted to examine the function of antioxidant enzymes in PD.

Abstract
In the last 15 years, among the many reasons given for the development of idiopathic forms of Parkinson's disease (PD), copper imbalance has been identified as a factor, and PD is often referred to as a copper-mediated disorder. More than 640 papers have been devoted to the relationship between PD and copper status in the blood, which include the following markers: total copper concentration, enzymatic ceruloplasmin (Cp) concentration, Cp protein level, and non-ceruloplasmin copper level. Most studies measure only one of these markers. Therefore, the existence of a correlation between copper status and the development of PD is still debated. Based on data from the published literature, meta-analysis, and our own research, it is clear that there is a connection between the development of PD symptoms and the number of copper atoms, which are weakly associated with the ceruloplasmin molecule. In this work, the link between the risk of developing PD and various inborn errors related to copper metabolism, leading to decreased levels of oxidase ceruloplasmin in the circulation and cerebrospinal fluid, is discussed.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Parkinson' s disease (PD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disease featured neuropathologically by the loss of dopaminergic neurons of the substantia nigra (SN). Iron overload in the SN is mainly relative to the pathology and pathogenesis of PD. Postmortem samples of PD has indicated the increased levels of brain iron. However, there is no consensus on iron content through iron-sensitive magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) techniques and the alteration of iron and iron related metabolism markers levels in blood and cerebrospinal fluids (CSF) are still unclear based on the current studies. In this study, we performed a meta-analysis to explore the iron concentration and iron metabolism markers levels through iron-sensitive MRI quantification and body fluid. METHODS A comprehensive literature search was performed in PubMed, EMBASE and Cochrane Library databases for relevant published studies that analyzed iron load in the SN of PD patients using quantitative susceptibility mapping (QSM) or susceptibility weighting imaging (SWI), and iron metabolism markers, iron, ferritin, transferrin, total iron-binding capacity(TIBC)in CSF sample or serum/plasma sample (from Jan 2010 to Sep 2022 to filter these inaccurate researches attributed to unadvanced equipment, inaccurate analytical methods). Standardized mean differences (SMD) or mean differences (MD) and 95% confidence intervals (CI) with random or fixed effect model was used to estimate the results. RESULTS Forty-two articles fulfilled the inclusion criteria including 19 for QSM, 6 for SWI, and 17 for serum/plasma/CSF sample including 2874 PD patients and 2821 healthy controls (HCs). Our meta-analysis results founded a notable difference for QSM values increase (19.67, 95% CI=18.69-20.64) and for SWI measurements (-1.99, 95% CI= -3.52 to -0.46) in the SN in PD patients. However, the serum/plasma/CSF iron levels and serum/plasma ferritin, transferrin, total iron-binding capacity (TIBC) did not differ significantly between PD patients and HCs. CONCLUSIONS Our meta-analysis showed the consistent increase in the SN in PD patients using QSM and SWI techniques of iron-sensitive MRI measures while no significant differences were observed in other iron metabolism markers levels.

Abstract
Parkinson's disease (PD) is one of the most common neurological diseases, next only to Alzheimer's disease (AD) in terms of prevalence. It afflicts about 2-3% of individuals over 65 years old. The etiology of PD is unknown and several environmental and genetic factors are involved. From a pathological point of view, PD is characterized by the loss of dopaminergic neurons in the substantia nigra, which causes the abnormal accumulation of α-synuclein (α-syn) (a component of Lewy bodies), which subsequently interact with heat shock proteins (HSPs), leading to apoptosis. Apoptosis is a vital pathway for establishing homeostasis in body tissues, which is regulated by pro-apoptotic and anti-apoptotic factors. Recent findings have shown that HSPs, especially HSP27 and HSP70, play a pivotal role in regulating apoptosis by influencing the factors involved in the apoptosis pathway. Moreover, it has been reported that the expression of these HSPs in the nervous system is high. Apart from this finding, investigations have suggested that HSP27 and HSP70 (related to parkin) show a potent protective and anti-apoptotic impact against the damaging outcomes of mutant α-syn toxicity to nerve cells. Therefore, in this study, we aimed to investigate the relationship between these HSPs and apoptosis in patients with PD.

Abstract
Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder that arises due to a complex and variable interplay between elements including age, genetic, and environmental risk factors that manifest as the loss of dopaminergic neurons. Contemporary treatments for PD do not prevent or reverse the extent of neurodegeneration that is characteristic of this disorder and accordingly, there is a strong need to develop new approaches which address the underlying disease process and provide benefit to patients with this debilitating disorder. Mitochondrial dysfunction, oxidative damage, and inflammation have been implicated as pathophysiological mechanisms underlying the selective loss of dopaminergic neurons seen in PD. However, results of studies aiming to inhibit these pathways have shown variable success, and outcomes from large-scale clinical trials are not available or report varying success for the interventions studied. Overall, the available data suggest that further development and testing of novel therapies are required to identify new potential therapies for combating PD. Herein, this review reports on the most recent development of antioxidant and anti-inflammatory approaches that have shown positive benefit in cell and animal models of disease with a focus on supplementation with natural product therapies and selected synthetic drugs.

Abstract
Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are signalling molecules used to regulate cellular metabolism and homeostasis. However, excessive ROS production causes oxidative stress, one of the main mechanisms associated with the origin and progression of neurodegenerative disorders such as Parkinson's disease. NRF2 (Nuclear Factor-Erythroid 2 Like 2) is a transcription factor that orchestrates the cellular response to oxidative stress. The regulation of NRF2 signalling has been shown to be a promising strategy to modulate the progression of the neurodegeneration associated to Parkinson's disease. The NRF2 pathway has been shown to be affected in patients with this disease, and activation of NRF2 has neuroprotective effects in preclinical models, demonstrating the therapeutic potential of this pathway. In this review, we highlight recent advances regarding the regulation of NRF2, including the effect of Angiotensin II as an endogenous signalling molecule able to regulate ROS production and oxidative stress in dopaminergic neurons. The genes regulated and the downstream effects of activation, with special focus on Kruppel Like Factor 9 (KLF9) transcription factor, provide clues about the mechanisms involved in the neurodegenerative process as well as future therapeutic approaches.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Several studies suggested a role or iron in the pathogenesis or Parkinson's disease (PD), and substantia nigra iron concentrarions have been found increased in PD. However, the results on cerebrospinal (CSF) and serum/plasma iron levels in PD patients have been controversial. The aim of this systematic review and meta-analysis was to establish the CSF and serum/plasma levels of iron and iron-related proteins (ferritin, transferrin, lactoferrin, haptoglobin, and hepcidine) levels, and the urine levels of iron, in patients with PD. METHODS Four databases (PubMed, EMBASE, MedLine, and Web of Science - Core Collection) were reviewed for studies published from 1966 to October 5, 2020. References of interest were identified. A meta-analysis of eligible studies was performed according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-analyses (PRISMA) and Meta-analysis of Observational Studies in Epidemiology (MOOSE) guidelines, using the R software package meta. RESULTS A non-significant trend towards higher CSF iron levels and marginally significantly lower serum/plasma iron levels was observed in patients with PD compared with age- and sex-matched controls. CSF and serum/plasma ferritin and transferrin concentrations, and serum/plasma lactoferrin and haptoglobin concentrations did not differ significantly between PD patients and controls. CONCLUSION The findings of this study suggest an association between decreased serum/plasma iron levels and, possibly, higher CSF iron levels with risk of PD.
