Basal activation of astrocytic Nrf2 in neuronal culture media: challenges and implications for neuron-astrocyte modelling

Mohamed Moftah Omer Elsharkasi, Beatrice Villani, Geoffrey Wells, Fiona Kerr

The paper shows that astrocytic Nrf2 activity is maximally induced by Advanced DMEM/F12 media in co-cultures, limiting pharmacological activation, and suggests caution in media selection for disease modeling.
