Heme oxygenase 1 overexpression increases iron fluxes in Caco-2 cells

Biological Research, 2006
Heme oxygenase-1 is a microsomal enzyme that, when induced by stress, protects the cells from oxidative injury. Heme oxygenase-1 participates in the cleavage of the heme ring producing biliverdin, CO and ferrous Fe.

Cytoprotective role of heme oxygenase-1 upregulation in progressive renal disease [PDF]

Einstein (São Paulo), 2009
Objective: This study evaluated the ability of heme oxygenase-1 to prevent or reverse renal fibrosis. Methods: Sprague-dawley male rats were submitted to unilateral ureteral obstruction and divided into groups: non-treated and hemin.

A Model for the Catabolism of Rhizopine in Rhizobium leguminosarum Involves a Ferredoxin Oxygenase Complex and the Inositol Degradative Pathway

Molecular Plant-Microbe Interactions, 1998
Rhizopines are nodule-specific compounds that confer an intraspecies competitive nodulation advantage to strains that can catabolize them. The rhizopine (3-O-methyl-scyllo-inosamine, 3-O-MSI) catabolic moc gene cluster mocCABRDE(F) in Rhizobium ...

Update: Enzymatische Synthese für industrielle Anwendungen

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Die Biokatalyse hat sich zu einer nachhaltigen und wettbewerbsfähigen Alternative zur herkömmlichen chemischen Synthese entwickelt und ermöglicht die enzymbasierte Herstellung nicht nur von chemischen Grundstoffen, sondern auch von (nicht natürlichen) Aminosäuren, (seltenen) Zuckern und synthetischen Nukleotiden.

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

, 2011
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.

Phenolic metabolites of anthocyanins modulate mechanisms of endothelial function [PDF]

, 2015
Anthocyanins are reported to have vascular bioactivity, however their mechanisms of action are largely unknown. Evidence suggests that anthocyanins modulate endothelial function, potentially by increasing nitric oxide (NO) synthesis, or enhancing NO ...

Structural and mutational analyses of the Leptospira interrogans virulence-related heme oxygenase provide insights into its catalytic mechanism.

PLoS ONE, 2017
Heme oxygenase from Leptospira interrogans is an important virulence factor. During catalysis, redox equivalents are provided to this enzyme by the plastidic-type ferredoxin-NADP+ reductase also found in L. interrogans.

Characterization and Function Analysis of the Beta-Carotene Oxygenase-like Genes in Carotenoids Metabolism of the Ridgetail White Prawn Exopalaemon carinicauda

Frontiers in Physiology, 2020
Carotenoids are almost universally distributed in living organisms. The oxidative metabolism by carotene oxygenase contributes to the metabolic processes of carotenoids.

Coinfection between human immunodeficiency virus and tuberculosis: A consideration on ritonavir-related heme Oxygenase-1 pathway

Biomedical and Biotechnology Research Journal, 2019
Background: Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection is an important infection seen worldwide. HIV-infected patients usually have impaired immune function and get infected with other concurrent infections.
