Implication of heme oxygenase-1 in the sensitivity of nasopharyngeal carcinomas to radiotherapy [PDF]
High expression of the inducible isoform of heme oxygenase (HO-1) is well known in various solid tumors in human and experimental animal models. To investigate the relationship between HO-1 and nasopharyngeal carcinomas, especially its involvement in the

Induction of heme-oxygenase-1 (HO-1) does not enhance adiponectin production in human adipocytes: evidence against a direct HO-1 - Adiponectin axis [PDF]
Adiponectin is a salutary adipokine and hypoadiponectinemia is implicated in the aetiology of obesity-related inflammation and cardiometabolic disease making therapeutic strategies to increase adiponectin attractive. Emerging evidence, predominantly from

Metalloporphyrins inactivate caspase-3 and -8 [PDF]
Activation of caspases represents one of the earliest biochemical indicators for apoptotic cell death. Therefore, measurement of caspase activity is a widely used and generally accepted method to determine apoptosis in a wide range of in vivo and in ...

Intragraft heme oxygenase-1 and coronary artery disease after heart transplantation [PDF]
Peri-operative tissue injury triggers the development of Transplant Coronary Artery Disease (TCAD). Animal studies have shown that induction of heme oxygenase (HO)-1 protects the donor organ from the development of TCAD.
