Heme oxygenase 1 overexpression increases iron fluxes in Caco-2 cells
(Sociedad de Biología de Chile, 2006)
Adaptive Potential of the Heme Oxygenase/Carbon Monoxide Pathway During Hypoxia
(Frontiers Media, 2020)
Heme oxygenase (HO) enzymes catalyze heme into biliverdin, releasing carbon monoxide (CO) and iron into circulation. These byproducts of heme degradation can have potent cytoprotective effects in the face of stressors such ...
Heme oxygenase 1 overexpression increases iron fluxes in Caco-2 cells
(2006)
Heme oxygenase-1 is a microsomal enzyme that, when induced by stress, protects the cells from oxidative
injury. Heme oxygenase-1 participates in the cleavage of the heme ring producing biliverdin, CO and ferrous
Fe. The ...
Heme oxygenase activity and oxidative stress signalling in soybean leaves
(Elsevier Ireland, 2006-02)
We have previously demonstrated that the induction of heme oxygenase-1 (EC 1.14.99.3) plays a protective role for soybean plants against oxidative stress. Here, we have investigated for the first time the possible signal ...
Heme-iron utilization by Leptospira interrogans requires a heme oxygenase and a plastidic-type ferredoxin-NADP+ reductase
(Elsevier Science, 2014-07)
Background: Heme oxygenase catalyzes the conversion of heme to iron, carbon monoxide and biliverdin employing oxygen and reducing equivalents. This enzyme is essential for heme-iron utilization and contributes to virulence ...
Gaseous neurotransmitters and their role in anapyrexia
(2010-06-01)
Mammals keep their body temperature (Tb) relatively constant even under a wide range of ambient temperature variation. However, in some particular situations it may be beneficial to increase or to decrease Tb. For instance, ...
A heme-degradation pathway in a blood-sucking insect
(National Academy of Sciences, 2020)
Behavior of antioxidant defense system and heme oxygenase-1protein expression in fructose-hypertensive rats
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2006-12)
1. Addition of fructose to a rat diet for various time periods leads to hypertension, hyperinsulinemia and dyslipidemia and provides a model for testing oxidative stress parameters in the animals. 2. The oxidative stress ...
Structural and mutational analyses of the Leptospira interrogans virulence-related heme oxygenase provide insights into its catalytic mechanism
(Public Library of Science, 2017-08)
Heme oxygenase from Leptospira interrogans is an important virulence factor. During catalysis, redox equivalents are provided to this enzyme by the plastidic-type ferredoxin-NADP+ reductase also found in L. interrogans. ...
