Ferritin heavy chain mediates the protective effect of heme oxygenase-1 against oxidative stress
The phenomenon that heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) protects cell from injury yet its enzymatic product, iron, may facilitate generation of free radical has been long puzzling. Here we establish a functional connection between ferritin heavy chain (FHC) and HO-1.

Role of sphingosine-1-phosphate receptor 1 and downstream heme oxygenase-1 induction in alternative macrophage activation induced by apoptotic cells [PDF]
Macrophages show a remarkable functional plasticity, which enables them to change their phenotype in response to environmental signals. They are key players during infection by initiating inflammation through the release of proinflammatory mediators ...

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

Heme oxygenase, steering dioxygen activation toward heme hydroxylation
The activation of dioxygen by heme oxygenase proceeds via formation of an obligatory ferric hydroperoxide intermediate (FeIII-OOH), as is the case in the activation of dioxygen by monooxygenase enzymes. This review summarizes current understanding of the

The ferrous verdoheme-heme oxygenase complex is six-coordinate and low-spin
A biosynthetic and enzymatic method was developed for the preparation of 13C-labeled verdoheme, which permits the 13C NMR spectroscopic characterization of this elusive intermediate in the heme oxidation path catalyzed by the enzyme heme oxygenase.

Heme oxygenase catalyzes the first and rate-controlling step in heme catabolism. One of the two forms of heme oxygenase (heme oxygenase-1) has been shown to be increased by heme, metals, and in some systems, by certain environmental stresses. However, it
