Lutein Has a Protective Effect on Hepatotoxicity Induced by Arsenic via Nrf2 Signaling

Arsenic produces liver disease through the oxidative stress. While lutein can alleviate cytotoxic and oxidative injury, nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) pathway plays a critical role in defending oxidative species. However, the mechanisms by which lutein protects the liver against...
