The Protective Role of Heme Oxygenase-1 in Atherosclerotic Diseases

open access: yesInternational Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2019
Heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) is an intracellular enzyme that catalyzes the oxidation of heme to generate ferrous iron, carbon monoxide (CO), and biliverdin, which is subsequently converted to bilirubin.

Celecoxib exerts protective effects in the vascular endothelium via COX-2-independent activation of AMPK-CREB-Nrf2 signalling [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Although concern remains about the athero-thrombotic risk posed by cyclo-oxygenase (COX)-2-selective inhibitors, recent data implicates rofecoxib, while celecoxib appears equivalent to NSAIDs naproxen and ibuprofen.

Role of Heme Oxygenase as a Modulator of Heme-Mediated Pathways

open access: yesAntioxidants, 2019
The heme oxygenase (HO) system is essential for heme and iron homeostasis and necessary for adaptation to cell stress. HO degrades heme to biliverdin (BV), carbon monoxide (CO) and ferrous iron.

Nonsteroid drug selectivities for cyclo-oxygenase-1 rather than cyclo-oxygenase-2 are associated with human gastrointestinal toxicity: a full in vitro analysis.

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 1999
The beneficial actions of nonsteroid anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAID) can be associated with inhibition of cyclo-oxygenase (COX)-2 whereas their harmful side effects are associated with inhibition of COX-1.

Oxygenases for oxygen sensing [PDF]

open access: yesPure and Applied Chemistry, 2008
Abstract In animals, cellular and physiological responses to oxygen level variations are regulated via the post-translational modification of the heterodimeric hypoxia-inducible transcription factor (HIF). Hydroxylation of the HIF-α subunit at either of two conserved prolyl residues enables binding to the von Hippel-Lindau protein (pVHL)

Immunolocalization of heme oxygenase-1 in periodontal diseases

open access: yesIndian Journal of Dental Research, 2014
Context: Chronic periodontitis is an inflammatory condition of supporting tissues initiated by organisms in dental plaque. The reactive oxygen species and free radicals mediate connective tissue destruction in periodontitis.

Effects of heme oxygenase isozymes on Leydig cells steroidogenesis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
In the present study, we demonstrate the expression of heme oxygenase (HO) isozymes, HO-1 and HO-2 (listed as HMOX1 and HMOX2 in the MGI Database), in MA-10 Leydig tumor cells and its effect on steroidogenesis. The well-known HO inducer, hemin, increased

Endoplasmic reticulum anchored heme-oxygenase 1 faces the cytosol

open access: yesHaematologica, 2012
Heme-oxygenase 1 is an endoplasmic reticulum-anchored enzyme that breaks down heme into iron, carbon monoxide and biliverdin. Heme is a hydrophobic co-factor in many proteins, including hemoglobin.
