Abstract Background The metabolism of xenobiotics plays an essential role in smoking related lung function loss and development of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease. Nuclear Factor Erythroid 2-Like 2 NFE2L2 or NRF2 and its cytosolic repressor Kelch-like ECH-associated protein-1 KEAP1 regulate transcription of enzymes involved in cellular detoxification processes and Nfe2 2-deficient mice develop tobacco-induced emphysema.
