Neuroglobin (NGB) is a myoglobin-like monomeric globin that is involved in several processes, displaying a pivotal redox-dependent protective role in neuronal and extra-neuronal cells. NGB remarkably exerts its function upon upregulation by NGB inducers,

Immobilization of proteins in silica gel: Biochemical and biophysical properties [PDF]
The development of silica-based sol-gel techniques compatible with the retention of protein structure and function started more than 20 years ago, mainly for the design of biotechnological devices or biomedical applications.

Neuroglobin: A New Possible Marker of Estrogen-Responsive Breast Cancer
The expression of the α-subtype of Estrogen Receptor (ERα) characterizes most breast cancers (more than 75%), for which endocrine therapy is the mainstay for their treatment.

Characterization of novel glomerular proteins : role in physiology and disease [PDF]
Glomerular damage accounts for the majority of chronic kidney disease cases, the prevalence of which is dramatically escalating worldwide, mainly due to increase in diabetes and associated nephropathy.

Structural and (Pseudo-)Enzymatic Properties of Neuroglobin: Its Possible Role in Neuroprotection
Neuroglobin (Ngb), the third member of the globin family, was discovered in human and murine brains in 2000. This monomeric globin is structurally similar to myoglobin (Mb) and hemoglobin (Hb) α and β subunits, but it hosts a bis-histidyl six-coordinated

ABSTRACT In neurones, like in any other cell, their function often relies on the fine‐tuning of their protein levels, which is achieved by the balance between protein synthesis and turnover. Defects in protein homeostasis frequently lead to neuronal dysfunction and neurological disorders.

Hyperthermal stability of neuroglobin and cytoglobin [PDF]
Neuroglobin (Ngb) and cytoglobin (Cygb), recent additions to the globin family, display a hexa‐coordinated (bis‐histidyl) heme in the absence of external ligands. Although these proteins have the classical globin fold they reveal a very high thermal stability with a melting temperature (Tm) of 100 °C for Ngb and 95 °C for Cygb.

We investigated the regulatory effects of seizure‐induced excitotoxicity and acute hypoxia on the cytoprotective activin A and Ngb systems in the developing mouse brain. Our results demonstrate the differential regulation of Ngb and activin A as a function of time and type of injury and suggest their potential role as biomarkers of excitotoxic and ...
