Chimeric ZHHH neuroglobin acts as a cell membrane‐penetrating inducer of neurite outgrowth
Neuroglobin (Ngb) is a heme protein expressed in the vertebrate brain. We previously engineered a chimeric Ngb protein, in which module M1 of human Ngb is replaced by that of zebrafish Ngb, and showed that the chimeric ZHHH Ngb has a cell membrane ...

A role for human neuroglobin in apoptosis.
Over the past decade, following the discovery of the human heme protein neuroglobin, many studies have searched for evidence for this protein's mechanism of action.

UPREGULATION OF NEUROGLOBIN PROMOTES TM3 LEYDIG CELL VIABILITY
Neuroglobin (NGB) is a globin family member protein expressed in the nerve system and prevents oxidative stress and apoptosis induced death in neurons. The anti-oxidant role of NGB against oxidative stress and reactive oxygen species (ROS) brings up its ...

Iron–histidine bonding in bishistidyl hemoproteins–A local vibrational mode study
Using our local mode analysis, the strength of FeN distal and proximal bonds was investigated for bishistidyl proteins from bacteria, animals, human, and plants via local mode force constants ka(FeN). We also investigated the stiffness of the axial NFeN bond angle via local mode force constants ka(NFeN).

Neuroglobin and Cytoglobin expression in the human brain
Neuroglobin and Cytoglobin are new members of the heme-globin family. Both globins are primarily expressed in neurons of the brain and retina. Neuroglobin and Cytoglobin have been suggested as novel therapeutic targets in various neurodegenerative ...

A role for neuroglobin: resetting the trigger level for apoptosis in neuronal and retinal cells.
We propose a new hypothesis for the molecular mechanism by which neuroglobin exerts its protective effect in hypoxia-induced cell death. Our recent observation of a very rapid electron-transfer reaction between ferrous neuroglobin and ferric cytochrome c

大鼠急性青光眼模型中neuroglobin在视网膜的表达上调作用
目的研究大鼠急性青光眼模型中neuroglobin(NGB)的表达变化。方法制备大鼠急性青光眼模型,采用RT-PCR技术动态观察不同缺血时间点NGB mRNA水平变化,并对数据进行分析。结果视网膜缺血1 min,neuroglobinmRNA表达迅速上升,5 min时neuroglobin mRNA表达保持在高水平,到10 min时达高峰,缺血20 min表达已下降,但仍高于正常水平;此后缺血30 min、60 min时neuroglobin mRNA均保持在较低水平,且低于正常水平 ...
