Abstract
We studied ROS production by HaCaT keratinocytes, the state of transmembrane mitochondrial potential, and activation of transcription factor Nrf2 in response to brine exposure. It was demonstrated that this exposure induces rapid but moderate decrease in mitochondrial potential, stimulates ROS production, and leads to activation of transcription factor Nrf2.
