Multifunctional NIR‐Triggered Nanozyme‐Based Microneedles for Synergistic Eradication of MRSA and Enhanced Wound Healing

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
The novel microneedle patches (MN@CTB) are fabricated by integrating CTB nanozymes into HAMA and PVA solution based on a photo‐crosslinking reaction. The MN@CTB microneedle patches present an excellent photothermal effect and NIR‐stimulated release of NO, which is advantageous for the elimination of MRS.

Heme oxygenase-1 deficiency alters erythroblastic island formation, steady-state erythropoiesis and red blood cell lifespan in mice

open access: yesHaematologica, 2015
Heme oxygenase-1 is critical for iron recycling during red blood cell turnover, whereas its impact on steady-state erythropoiesis and red blood cell lifespan is not known. We show here that in 8- to 14-week old mice, heme oxygenase-1 deficiency adversely

Carnitine metabolism to trimethylamine by an unusual Rieske-type oxygenase from human microbiota [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Dietary intake of L-carnitine can promote cardiovascular diseases in humans through microbial production of trimethylamine (TMA) and its subsequent oxidation to trimethylamine N-oxide (TMAO) by hepatic flavin-containing monooxygenases.

Is Low Alveolar Type II Cell SOD3 in the Lungs of Elderly Linked to the Observed Severity of COVID-19? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Human lungs single cell RNA sequencing data from healthy donors (elderly and young; GEO accession number GSE122960) were analyzed to isolate and specifically study gene expression in alveolar type II cells.

A Mesoporous Calcium Peroxide Nanocuboid with High Tumor Accumulation Across Biological Barriers for High Efficacy Tumor Therapy

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
The ferroheme (FH) and exceedingly small magnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (IO) loaded mesoporous calcium peroxide nanocuboid (MCPNC) with conjugation of hyaluronic acid (HA) possesses exceptional capability of tumor accumulation, and enhances therapeutic efficacy of tumors based on the mechanism of promoting a positive feedback loop of Fenton reaction

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

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.

Harnessing the Biological Responses Induced by Nanomaterials for Enhanced Cancer Therapy

open access: yesAggregate, EarlyView.
Nanomaterial (NM)‐induced toxicity can be strategically repurposed for cancer therapy. This review summarizes the mechanism by which NMs selectively activate specific cellular processes to regulate cell fate independently. We also discussed how NMs‐induced biological responses can be leveraged as therapeutic strategies for cancer treatment.

New insights into intracellular locations and functions of heme oxygenase-1.

open access: yesAntioxidants and Redox Signaling, 2014
SIGNIFICANCE Heme oxygenase-1 (HMOX1) plays a critical role in the protection of cells, and the inducible enzyme is implicated in a spectrum of human diseases.

Signaling pathways involved in renal oxidative injury: role of the vasoactive peptides and the renal dopaminergic system [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The physiological hydroelectrolytic balance and the redox steady state in the kidney are accomplished by an intricate interaction between signals from extrarenal and intrarenal sources and between antinatriuretic and natriuretic factors.

Relationship between NOX4 level and angiotensin II signaling in Gitelman's syndrome. Implications with hypertension [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Recent evidence showed that endogenous nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate-oxidase 4 (NOX4) may exert a protective role on the cardiovascular system inducing vasodilation, reduction of blood pressure, and anti-proliferative actions.
