A Dual Role of Heme Oxygenase-1 in Cancer Cells

International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2018
Heme oxygenase (HO)-1 is known to metabolize heme into biliverdin/bilirubin, carbon monoxide, and ferrous iron, and it has been suggested to demonstrate cytoprotective effects against various stress-related conditions.

Role of Heme Oxygenase as a Modulator of Heme-Mediated Pathways

Antioxidants, 2019
The heme oxygenase (HO) system is essential for heme and iron homeostasis and necessary for adaptation to cell stress. HO degrades heme to biliverdin (BV), carbon monoxide (CO) and ferrous iron.

Impairment of neutrophil oxidative burst in children with sickle cell disease is associated with heme oxygenase-1

Haematologica, 2015
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 ...

The Protective Role of Heme Oxygenase-1 in Atherosclerotic Diseases

International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2019
Heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) is an intracellular enzyme that catalyzes the oxidation of heme to generate ferrous iron, carbon monoxide (CO), and biliverdin, which is subsequently converted to bilirubin.

Ascorbic acid partly antagonizes resveratrol mediated heme oxygenase-1 but not paraoxonase-1 induction in cultured hepatocytes - role of the redox-regulated transcription factor Nrf2

BMC Complementary and Alternative Medicine, 2011
Background Both resveratrol and vitamin C (ascorbic acid) are frequently used in complementary and alternative medicine. However, little is known about the underlying mechanisms for potential health benefits of resveratrol and its interactions with ...

A Lactobacillus rhamnosus strain induces a heme oxygenase dependent increase in Foxp3+ regulatory T cells. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2012
We investigated the consequences of feeding with a Lactobacillus species on the immune environment in GALT, and the role of dendritic cells and heme oxygenase-1 in mediating these responses.

Immune-Related Functions of Heme Oxygenase-1

Antioxidants, 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 [...]

Structural and mutational analyses of the Leptospira interrogans virulence-related heme oxygenase provide insights into its catalytic mechanism.

PLoS ONE, 2017
Heme oxygenase from Leptospira interrogans is an important virulence factor. During catalysis, redox equivalents are provided to this enzyme by the plastidic-type ferredoxin-NADP+ reductase also found in L. interrogans.

Bacillus subtilis HmoB is a heme oxygenase with a novel structure [PDF]

BMB Reports, 2012
Iron availability is limited in the environment and mostbacteria have developed a system to acquire iron from hosthemoproteins. Heme oxygenase plays an important role bydegrading heme group and releasing the essential nutrientiron.
