Reduction of biliverdin and placental transfer of bilirubin and biliverdin in the pregnant guinea pig [PDF]
Biochemical Journal, 1981 Biliverdin was reduced to bilirubin in pregnant and foetal guinea pigs, and the 100000 g supernatant from homogenates of foetal liver, placenta and maternal liver showed high biliverdin reductase activity. The placental transport of unconjugated bilirubin and biliverdin was compared by injecting unlabelled and radiolabelled pigments into the foetal or ...

Biliverdin protects against liver ischemia reperfusion injury in swine. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Ischemia reperfusion injury (IRI) in organ transplantation remains a serious and unsolved problem. Organs that undergo significant damage during IRI, function less well immediately after reperfusion and tend to have more problems at later times when ...

Cycling the Wagons for Biliverdin Reductase [PDF]
Journal of Biological Chemistry, 2009 This letter was prompted by our reading of the article by Maghzal et al. (1). Bilirubin (BR) is a major physiologic antioxidant cytoprotectant. Tissue levels are only in nanomolar concentrations, because high levels are neurotoxic, yet BR protects against micromolar levels of oxidants because of a cycle wherein biliverdin (BV) generated by BR ...

Long-Distance Protonation-Conformation Coupling in Phytochrome Species
Molecules, 2022 Phytochromes are biological red/far-red light sensors found in many organisms. The connection between photoconversion and the cellular output signal involves light-mediated global structural changes in the interaction between the photosensory module (PAS-

HIGH EXPRESSION OF HMOX1 IN BLUE-SHELLED CHICKENS IS ASSOCIATED WITH A TG HAPLOTYPE
Brazilian Journal of Poultry Science, 2015 HMOX1 is an important gene in biosynthesis of the eggshell pigment of blue eggs. Previous studies found that HMOX1 is highly expressed in the shell gland of hens laying blue eggs (BlueH) compared with hens laying brown eggs (BrownH); however, the reasons
