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.

Chrysin alleviates pressure overload–induced myocardial remodeling through regulating the PI3K/AKT/NRF2 pathway–mediated oxidative stress response

open access: yesAnimal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
In this study, we primarily simulated pathological myocardial remodeling induced by transverse aortic constriction surgery and found significant cardiac hypertrophy and fibrosis, characterized by deteriorated cardiac function. Oxidative stress response is considered as a pivotal pathological process, which contributes to inflammation and apoptosis of ...

Coinfection between human immunodeficiency virus and tuberculosis: A consideration on ritonavir-related heme Oxygenase-1 pathway

open access: yesBiomedical and Biotechnology Research Journal, 2019
Background: Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection is an important infection seen worldwide. HIV-infected patients usually have impaired immune function and get infected with other concurrent infections.

Naringin Decreases TNF-α and HMGB1 Release from LPS-Stimulated Macrophages and Improves Survival in a CLP-Induced Sepsis Mice. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2016
Naringin, a flavanone glycoside extracted from various plants, has a wide range of pharmacological effects. In the present study, we investigated naringin's mechanism of action and its inhibitory effect on lipopolysaccharide-induced tumor necrosis factor-

Heme-heme oxygenase-2 reduces the atherosclerosis by preventing inflammation

open access: yesCurrent Research in Pharmacology and Drug Discovery, 2023
Objective: Heme oxygenase (HO) has been shown to have important antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties, resulting in a vascular antitherogenic effect. This study was undertaken to evaluate the role of HO-2 in atherosclerosis.

Pharmacological Preconditioning with Simvastatin Protects Liver from Ischemia-Reperfusion Injury by Heme Oxygenase-1 Induction

open access: yes, 2011
Background. The protective role of heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) against liver ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury in models of hypoxic and remote preconditioning has been proved.

Dual Functions of Dietary Rubber Seed Oil Supplementation: Enriching N‐3 Polyunsaturated Fatty Acids and Enhancing Antioxidant Capacity in Pekin Ducks

open access: yesAnimal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
Dietary RSO supplementation improved growth performance, simultaneously enriched n‐3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (n‐3 PUFA), and enhanced antioxidant capacity in Pekin ducks, which suggested that RSO has the potential to be a novel n‐3 PUFA source and an antioxidant for Pekin ducks to generate animal functional foods.

Developmental Biology of Heme Oxygenase

open access: yesClinics in Perinatology, 1990
The regulation of heme oxygenase activity in the developing neonate is essential to the control of bilirubin production as well as intracellular heme and hemoprotein metabolism. The coordinated activity of the microsomal enzymes, heme oxygenase and NADPH-cytochrome c (P450) reductase, and the cytosolic enzyme biliverdin reductase is responsible for the

Creation of novel pharmacological tools in heme oxygenase research [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Aims: While great strides have been made in the elucidation of the physiological and pharmacological roles of heme oxygenases (HO) in experimental animals and humans, there is still an enormous potential for further research discoveries and their ...

Altered heme catabolism by heme oxygenase-1 caused by mutations in human NADPH cytochrome P450 reductase

open access: yes, 2010
Human heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) carries out heme catabolism supported by electrons supplied from the NADPH through NADPH P450 reductase (POR, CPR). Previously we have shown that mutations in human POR cause a rare form of congenital adrenal hyperplasia. In
