The effect of Nrf2 knockout on the survival rates of mice after exposure to abdominal irradiation or total body irradiation. (A) Kaplan–Meier survival curve of Nrf2+/+ mice and Nrf2−/− mice after 13 Gy abdominal irradiation. Mice (n = 21 mice/group) were treated with 13 Gy abdominal irradiation and monitored continuously for 30 days to determine survival rates. The data were expressed as a percentage of surviving mice; (B) mice (n = 21 mice/group) were treated with 13 Gy abdominal irradiation and monitored continuously for 30 days to record the body weight of survival mice. The data were expressed as body weight/initial weight; and (C) the Kaplan–Meier survival curve of Nrf2+/+ mice and Nrf2−/− mice after 7.2 Gy total body irradiation. Mice (n = 21 mice/group) were treated with 7.2 Gy total body irradiation and monitored continuously for 30 day to determine survival rates. The data were expressed as the percentage of surviving mice. * p < 0.05, Nrf2−/− group versus Nrf2+/+ group.
