Type:
Kelch-like ECH-associated protein 1 (Keap1) is a key regulator of the transcription factor Nrf2.

-In several tumor types, loss of Keap1 function (either due to gene mutations or low protein expression) results in unrestrained Nrf2 activity.
• Persistent Nrf2 activation is thought to:
 - Provide tumor cells with enhanced protection against oxidative stress.
 - Contribute to chemoresistance and radioresistance.
 - Promote metabolic reprogramming that fuels tumor growth.

• Thus, in many cancers, altered Keap1 status can serve as an indicator of poor prognosis and has been investigated as a potential target for therapeutic intervention.

Colon cancer can start anywhere in the colon, (5 feet long) and absorbs water from stool. Rectal cancer starts in the rectum, which is the last 12 centimeters.
