Beyond Gut Modulation: A Critical Review of the Therapeutic Potential, Safety, and Clinical Prospects of Natural Polysaccharides for IBD

open access: yesFood Safety and Health, EarlyView.
In this review, we critically summarized the application of natural polysaccharides (NPs) for the treatment of IBD. This approach combines, in a unique way (right), the basic structure–activity relationships of NPs from different origins (left) with their multipronged mode of action, which involves modulation of the gut microbiota and other ...

Inductive transcription and protective role of fish heme oxygenase-1 under hypoxic stress

open access: yes, 2008
Heme oxygenase-1 is the rate-limiting enzyme in the degradation of heme into biliverdin, carbon monoxide and free divalent iron. In this study, we cloned heme oxygenase isoform 1 (CaHO-1) from a hypoxia-tolerant teleost fish Carassius auratus.

Heme controls ferroportin1 (FPN1) transcription involving Bach1, Nrf2 and a MARE/ARE sequence motif at position −7007 of the FPN1 promoter

open access: yesHaematologica, 2010
Background Macrophages of the reticuloendothelial system play a key role in recycling iron from hemoglobin of senescent or damaged erythrocytes. Heme oxygenase 1 degrades the heme moiety and releases inorganic iron that is stored in ferritin or exported ...

Role of sphingosine-1-phosphate receptor 1 and downstream heme oxygenase-1 induction in alternative macrophage activation induced by apoptotic cells

open access: yes, 2010
Macrophages show a remarkable functional plasticity, which enables them to change their phenotype in response to environmental signals. They are key players during infection by initiating inflammation through the release of proinflammatory mediators ...

Prevention of Ischemia-Reperfusion Injury in the Rat Liver by Atrial Natriuretic Peptide [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
This work characterizes the protective effects of ANP preconditioning in ischemia-reperfusion injury of the isolated perfused rat liver. It was of particular interest to evaluate the influence of ANP on the mode of cell death occurring during cold ...

Evidence for Heme Oxygenase Activity in a Heme Peroxidase

open access: yes, 2016
The heme peroxidase and heme oxygenase enzymes share a common heme prosthetic group but catalyze fundamentally different reactions, the first being H2O2-dependent oxidation of substrate using an oxidized Compound I intermediate, and the second O2 ...

Research progress on the role of inflammatory mediators in the pathogenesis of epilepsy

open access: yesIbrain, Volume 11, Issue 1, Page 44-58, Spring 2025.
In the central nervous system, activated immune cells lead to the overproduction of inflammatory mediators through the corresponding signal pathway. Under the stimulation of inflammatory factors, neuroinflammation ultimately occurs. Overexpression of inflammatory mediators and activated immunocytes plays an important role in the emergence and ...

The effects of Bilirubin and Bilirubin-di-taurate on ischemia reperfusion injruy in a rat model of kidney transplantation

open access: yes, 2011
Background: Heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) is the rate-limiting enzyme in the conversion of heme into biliverdin, carbon monoxide (CO) and free iron. Biliverdin is then subsequently reduced to bilirubin by the enzyme bilverdin reductase.

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 ...

Decidual macrophage‐mediated ferroptosis in trophoblasts leads to recurrent spontaneous abortion

open access: yesiMeta, EarlyView.
Decidual macrophages from recurrent spontaneous abortion (RSA) patients promote trophoblast ferroptosis and impair trophoblast cell function. Mechanistically, the CXCL2/NF‐κB/HMOX1 axis mediates this effect. Conversely, trophoblasts co‐cultured with RSA decidual macrophages induce pro‐inflammatory macrophage polarization through IL‐6/JAK2/STAT3 ...
