Product Description: 4-Hydroxyphenyl acetate (4-HPA) is a natural antioxidant and protects cells from oxidative stress-induced necrosis. 4-Hydroxyphenyl acetate blocks the increase of cellular ROS induced by oxidative stress, and up-regulates NQO1 and HO-1 genes by stabilizing and inducing the nuclear translocation of NRF2 transcription factor[1].
