The Protective Effect of Indole-3-Acetic Acid (IAA) on H2O2-Damaged Human Dental Pulp Stem Cells Is Mediated by the AKT Pathway and Involves Increased Expression of the Transcription Factor Nuclear Factor-Erythroid 2-Related Factor 2 (Nrf2) and Its Downstream Target Heme Oxygenase 1 (HO-1)

Proposed mechanisms of action of IAA in H2O2-exposed human dental pulp stem cells. IAA treatment may have an antiapoptotic effect and protect against H2O2-induced oxidative stress by increasing the expression of Nrf2 and HO-1, mediated by the AKT pathway.
