Abstract
The morbidity and mortality of lung cancer ranks among the top cancers in the world. Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is the main pathological type of lung cancer, with limited treatment options and poor prognosis. The nuclear factor E2-related factor 2 (NRF2) signaling pathway is highly mutated and activated in NSCLC, and promotes the malignant progression of lung cancer through various mechanisms. NRF2-targeted therapy will provide new treatment strategies for patients with NSCLC. This article will review the basic structure and response pathways of the NRF2 pathway, the mechanism of NRF2 regulating lung cancer cell proliferation, and the research and development progress of NRF2 inhibitors.
