Taurine Chloramine Activates Nrf2, Increases HO-1 Expression and Protects Cells from Death Caused by Hydrogen Peroxide

Hypochlorous acid (HOCl) is toxic and causes cell death. However, this effect is inhibited by reaction with taurine, which generates taurine chloramine (TauCl), thereby protecting the cells from HOCl-generated toxicity. TauCl has been shown to inhibit the production of inflammatory mediators like O(...
