Porous Aromatic Framework with Tailored Binding Sites and Pore Sizes as a High‐Performance Hemoperfusion Adsorbent for Bilirubin Removal

Advancement of science, 2020
Highly efficient removal of bilirubin from blood by hemoperfusion for liver failure therapy remains a challenge in the clinical field due to the low adsorption capacity and slow adsorption kinetics of currently used bilirubin adsorbents (e.g., activated ...

Targeting Heme Oxygenase-1 in the Arterial Response to Injury and Disease

Antioxidants, 2020
Heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) catalyzes the degradation of heme into carbon monoxide (CO), iron, and biliverdin, which is rapidly metabolized to bilirubin. The activation of vascular smooth muscle cells (SMCs) plays a critical role in mediating the aberrant ...

Bilirubin–Albumin Binding and Free Bilirubin [PDF]

Journal of Perinatology, 2001
The relevance of plasma bilirubin-albumin binding and, in particular, the nonalbumin-bound or "free" bilirubin concentration to neonatal bilirubin toxicity is controversial. The pivotal role that "free" bilirubin played in the bilirubin toxicity that occurred following administration of sulfisoxazole or benzyl alcohol to jaundiced newborns, and the ...

Circulating bilirubin levels and risk of colorectal cancer: serological and Mendelian randomization analyses

BMC Medicine, 2020
Bilirubin, a byproduct of hemoglobin breakdown and purported anti-oxidant, is thought to be cancer preventive. We conducted complementary serological and Mendelian randomization (MR) analyses to investigate whether alterations in circulating levels of ...

BilR is a gut microbial enzyme that reduces bilirubin to urobilinogen

Nature Microbiology
Metabolism of haem by-products such as bilirubin by humans and their gut microbiota is essential to human health, as excess serum bilirubin can cause jaundice and even neurological damage.
