Figure 1 Redox signaling in T3 liver preconditioning is mediated by activation of transcription factors nuclear factor-κB, activating protein 1, signal transducer and activator of transcription 3, and nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 triggering antioxidant, anti-apoptotic, acute-phase and proliferative responses.

Figure 2 n-3 long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acid -induced liver preconditioning is associated with antioxidant and anti-inflammatory responses triggered by oxidative products and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor -α activation.

Figure 3 Redox signaling in iron (Fe)-induced liver preconditioning is elicited by the cellular labile Fe pool triggering nuclear factor-erythroid 2, signal transducer and activator of transcription 3, and nuclear factor-κB activation and iron-regulatory protein / iron-responsive element post-transcriptional up-regulation with antioxidant and acute-phase responses.
