Regulation of Complement Activation by Heme Oxygenase-1 (HO-1) in Kidney Injury [PDF]

open access: goldAntioxidants, 2021
Heme oxygenase is a cytoprotective enzyme with strong antioxidant and anti-apoptotic properties. Its cytoprotective role is mainly attributed to its enzymatic activity, which involves the degradation of heme to biliverdin with simultaneous release of ...

How Heme Oxygenase-1 Prevents Heme-Induced Cell Death. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
Earlier observations indicate that free heme is selectively toxic to cells lacking heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) but how this enzyme prevents heme toxicity remains unexplained.

Heme oxygenase-1, oxidation, inflammation and atherosclerosis [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2012
Atherosclerosis is an inflammatory process of the vascular wall characterized by the infiltration of lipids and inflammatory cells. Oxidative modifications of infiltrating low density lipoproteins and induction of oxidative stress play a major role in ...

Heme oxygenase-1 deletion affects stress erythropoiesis. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2011
BACKGROUND:Homeostatic erythropoiesis leads to the formation of mature red blood cells under non-stress conditions, and the production of new erythrocytes occurs as the need arises.

Immune-Related Functions of Heme Oxygenase-1

open access: yesAntioxidants, 2023
Heme oxygenase (HO)-1 is a well-known cytoprotective enzyme due to its enzymatic action, which involves the catalysis of heme into anti-apoptotic and antioxidant molecules such as bilirubin, biliverdin and CO [...]

Heme catabolism and heme oxygenase-1-expressing myeloid cells in pathophysiology [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology
Although the pathological significance of myeloid cell heterogeneity is still poorly understood, new evidence indicates that distinct macrophage subsets are characterized by specific metabolic programs that influence disease onset and progression. Within

Heme oxygenase-1 protects cells from replication stress [PDF]

open access: yesRedox Biology
Heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1, HMOX1) degrades heme protecting cells from heme-induced oxidative damage. Beyond its well-established cellular functions, heme has emerged as a stabilizer of G-quadruplexes.
