Many antioxidant genes transcriptionally controlled by synaptic activity in neurons are known NFE2L2 target genes, but are induced via NFE2L2-independent routes (e.g. AP-1 and ATF4), suggesting that activity-dependent signaling may act as a substitute for an absent NFE2L2 pathway.
“Interestingly, many of the antioxidant genes transcriptionally controlled by synaptic activity in neurons are known NFE2L2 target genes, but are induced via NFE2L2independent routes (e.g. via activator protein 1 (AP-1) family and activating transcription factor 4 (ATF4)), suggesting that activity-dependent signaling may act as a substitute for an absent NFE2L2 pathway 73,86,87 .”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
