The Protective Role of Heme Oxygenase-1 in Atherosclerotic Diseases
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]
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
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.

Oxygenases for oxygen sensing [PDF]
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
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]
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
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.
