Gelatinase B/matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9), a key regulator and effector of immunity, contains a C-terminal hemopexin domain preceded by a unique linker sequence of ∼64 amino acid residues. This linker sequence is demonstrated to be an extensively O-

Free heme exacerbates colonic injury induced by anti-cancer therapy
Gastrointestinal inflammation and bleeding are commonly induced by cancer radiotherapy and chemotherapy but mechanisms are unclear. We demonstrated an increased number of infiltrating heme oxygenase-1 positive (HO-1+) macrophages (Mø, CD68+) and the ...

Interactions of Porphyrins with Rabbit Hemopexin
Abstract The formation of complexes of rabbit hemopexin with a representative group of porphyrins was investigated to determine the stoichiometry and estimated dissociation constants (Kd) as well as the effect of pH on these interactions. In a 1:1 molar ratio, rabbit apohemopexin (RHx) binds iron-protoporphyrin IX (heme), iron-deuteroporphyrin IX ...

Analysis of protein glycosylation is challenging due to micro- and macro-heterogeneity of the attached glycans. Hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography (HILIC) is a mode of choice for separation of intact glycopeptides, which are inadequately ...

Assessment of Ceruloplasmin, Hemopexin, and Haptoglobin in Asthmatic Children [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Ceruloplasmin (Cp), haptoglobin, and hemopexin play a role in iron homeostasis and may function to modulate the systemic inflammatory response and be involved in tissue repair.

Soil-transmitted helminth [mainly Strongyloidiasis stercoralis (Ss)] and tuberculous lymphadenitis (TBL) coinfection in humans is a significant public health problem. We have previously shown that TBL+Ss+ coinfection significantly alters diverse cytokine,

Abstract Haptoglobin (Hp) is a polymorphic acute phase α‐2 glycoprotein found in plasma that plays a critical role in binding, neutralizing, and removing cell‐free hemoglobin (Hb) from the circulation. Under clinical conditions characterized by high levels of hemolysis, such as in patients with sickle cell disease (SCD), large quantities of cell‐free ...

ABSTRACT Despite substantial clinical benefit from immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI), advanced melanoma remains challenging due to frequent treatment resistance. Resistance may be intrinsic (primary) or emerge over time (secondary). Biomarkers predicting distinct resistance phenotypes before therapy are lacking.
