Carbon monoxide: from toxin to endogenous modulator of cardiovascular functions

Brazilian Journal of Medical and Biological Research, 1999
Carbon monoxide (CO) is a pollutant commonly recognized for its toxicological attributes, including CNS and cardiovascular effects. But CO is also formed endogenously in mammalian tissues. Endogenously formed CO normally arises from heme degradation in a

Comprehensive data on a 2D-QSAR model for Heme Oxygenase isoform 1 inhibitors

Data in Brief, 2017
The data have been obtained from the Heme Oxygenase Database (HemeOxDB) and refined according to the 2D-QSAR requirements. These data provide information about a set of more than 380 Heme Oxygenase-1 (HO-1) inhibitors.

Heme catabolism by heme oxygenase-1 confers host resistance to Mycobacterium infection [PDF]

, 2013
Heme oxygenases (HO) catalyze the rate-limiting step of heme degradation. The cytoprotective action of the inducible HO-1 isoform, encoded by the Hmox1 gene, is required for host protection against systemic infections. Here we report that upregulation of

Metformin alleviates spinal cord injury by inhibiting nerve cell ferroptosis through upregulation of heme oxygenase-1 expression

Neural Regeneration Research
[INLINE:1] Previous studies have reported upregulation of heme oxygenase-1 in different central nervous system injury models. Heme oxygenase-1 plays a critical anti-inflammatory role and is essential for regulating cellular redox homeostasis.

Development of inhibitory antibodies to therapeutic factor VIII in severe hemophilia A is associated with microsatellite polymorphisms in the HMOX1 promoter

Haematologica, 2013
Induction of heme oxygenase-1, a stress-inducible enzyme with anti-inflammatory activity, reduces the immunogenicity of therapeutic factor VIII in experimental hemophilia A.

The silent information regulator 1 pathway attenuates ROS-induced oxidative stress in Alzheimer's disease [PDF]

Journal of Integrative Neuroscience, 2020
We show that down-regulation of circular ribonucleic acid 0001588 with small interfering-circular ribonucleic acid 0001588 mimics promoted caspase-3 and caspase-9 activity levels, increased lactate dehydrogenase activity levels, and reduced cell growth ...

Heme oxygenase-1 & 2 and their potential contribution in heme induced colorectal carcinogenesis

, 2022
Background: Literature suggests Heme oxygenase (HO) system to be a double-edged sword which can promote both cytoprotection as well as carcinogenicity.

Targeting transcription factors associated with hemoglobinopathies: Lessons from successful interventions and implications for cancer

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This review summarizes the transcription factors, repressive chromatin‐modifying complexes, and epigenetic mechanisms that control fetal hemoglobin repression. Notably, many regulators of γ‐globin silencing also function in transcriptional and epigenetic networks that drive cancer, highlighting opportunities to translate advances in hemoglobinopathy ...

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

, 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.
