Biliverdin Reductase-A Deficiency Brighten and Sensitize Biliverdin-binding Chromoproteins

open access: yesCell Structure and Function, 2020
Tissue absorbance, light scattering, and autofluorescence are significantly lower in the near-infrared (NIR) range than in the visible range. Because of these advantages, NIR fluorescent proteins (FPs) are in high demand for in vivo imaging. Nevertheless, application of NIR FPs such as iRFP is still limited due to their dimness in mammalian cells.

Reduction of biliverdin and placental transfer of bilirubin and biliverdin in the pregnant guinea pig [PDF]

open access: yesBiochemical 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 ...

Study of fluorescent labelled bilirubine preparation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
Heme is a prosthetic group containing iron atom at the center of the tetrapyrrole cycle, which is the part of hemoglobin. Heme is metabolized by heme oxygenase to linear tetrapyrrolic pigment - biliverdine.

Cycling the Wagons for Biliverdin Reductase [PDF]

open access: yesJournal 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 ...

Biliverdine-Based Metalloradicals:  Sterically Enhanced Noninnocence

open access: yes, 2016
This is a first density functional theory survey of transition-metal biliverdines (Blv), where we have chosen to focus on key Mn, Fe, Co, and Cu complexes.

Fluorescence de biliverdines ix diméthylesters complexées par le zinc

open access: yes, 2017
La fluorescence de quatre isomères de la biliverdine IX diméthylester a été étudiée dans différentes conditions. Le rôle de la complexation par le zinc, l’influence du pH, de la température et de l'oxygène dissous ont été mis en évidence.

Heme oxygenase substrates acutely lower blood pressure in hypertensive rats

open access: yes, 1996
Heme oxygenase catalyzes the metabolism of heme to biliverdine, free iron, and carbon monoxide. The current study was designed to determine if treatment with the heme oxygenase substrates heme-L-arginate or heme-L-lysinate, to stimulate formation of ...

Biliverdin reductase isozymes in metabolism [PDF]

open access: yesTrends in Endocrinology & Metabolism, 2015
The biliverdin reductase (BVR) isozymes BVRA and BVRB are cell surface membrane receptors with pleiotropic functions. This review compares, for the first time, the structural and functional differences between the isozymes. They reduce biliverdin, a byproduct of heme catabolism, to bilirubin, display kinase activity, and BVRA, but not BVRB, can act as ...
