PURPOSE: Thioredoxin is a multifunctional endogenous redox regulator that protects against various<br />

types of cellular or tissue stresses. In a mouse model of retinal light damage, researchers determined<br />

intraperitoneal and oral sulforaphane induced thioreduxin protein in the neural retina and retinal<br />

pigment epithelium and effectively reduced retinal light damage. Evidence suggests that antioxidant<br />

response element is involved in the mechanism of thioreduxin induction by sulforaphane in retinal<br />

pigment epithelial cells.
