Heme Oxygenase-1 Expression Affects Murine Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm Progression. [PDF]
Heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1), the rate-limiting enzyme in heme degradation, is a cytoprotective enzyme upregulated in the vasculature by increased flow and inflammatory stimuli.

Heme oxygenase 1 is differentially involved in blood flow-dependent arterial remodeling: role of inflammation, oxidative stress, and nitric oxide [PDF]
Heme oxygenase 1 is induced by hemodynamic forces in vascular smooth muscle and endothelial cells. We investigated the involvement of heme oxygenase 1 in flow (shear stress)-dependent remodeling.

The induction of heme oxygenase 1 decreases contractility in human internal thoracic artery and radial artery grafts [PDF]
ObjectiveSpasm remains a potential problem encountered during the use of arterial grafts in coronary artery bypass surgery. Heme oxygenase plays a role in the control of arterial vasoreactivity.

Impairment of neutrophil oxidative burst in children with sickle cell disease is associated with heme oxygenase-1. [PDF]
Sickle cell disease is a risk factor for invasive bacterial infections, and splenic dysfunction is believed to be the main underlying cause. We have previously shown that the liberation of heme in acute hemolysis can induce heme oxygenase-1 during ...

Human Heme Oxygenase Oxidation of 5- and 15-Phenylhemes [PDF]
Human heme oxygenase-1 (hHO-1) catalyzes the O2- dependent oxidation of heme to biliverdin, CO, and free iron. Previous work indicated that electrophilic addition of the terminal oxygen of the ferric hydroperoxo complex to the -meso-carbon gives 5 ...

Heme Oxygenase and Atherosclerosis [PDF]
Overproduction of reactive oxygen species under pathophysiological conditions, including dyslipidemia, hypertension, diabetes, and smoking, is integral in the development of cardiovascular diseases (CVD). The reactive oxygen species released from all types of vascular cells regulate various signaling pathways that mediate not only vascular inflammation

Heme Oxygenase Induction Suppresses Hepatic Hepcidin and Rescues Ferroportin and Ferritin Expression in Obese Mice [PDF]
Hepcidin, a phase II reactant secreted by hepatocytes, regulates cellular iron levels by increasing internalization of ferroportin-a transmembrane protein facilitating egress of cellular iron.

The NADPH oxidase NOX4 regulates redox and metabolic homeostasis preventing HCC progression
Loss of NOX4 in HCC tumor cells induces metabolic reprogramming in a Nrf2/MYC‐dependent manner to promote HCC progression. Abstract Background and Aims The NADPH oxidase NOX4 plays a tumor‐suppressor function in HCC. Silencing NOX4 confers higher proliferative and migratory capacity to HCC cells and increases their in vivo tumorigenic potential in ...

Heme Catabolism and Heme Oxygenase in Neurodegenerative Disease
Heme oxygenase, the rate-limiting step in heme catabolism, appears to play an important role in a number of neurodegenerative disorders, such as Alzheimer disease. Interestingly, the spatial distribution of heme oxygenase-1 expression in diseased brain is essentially identical to that of the pathological expression of tau, suggesting a key role for ...
