Zn protoporphyrin IX is formed not from heme but from protoporphyrin IX [PDF]

open access: yesMeat Science, 2007
We examined the effects of exogenous myoglobin, a bivalent chelator, and nitrite on Zn protoporphyrin IX (ZPP) formation by using model systems. ZPP was formed in a model solution without addition of exogenous myoglobin. After incubation, the amount of ZPP in a model solution was increased but that of heme was not decreased compared with the amounts ...

Stimuli‐responsive nanostructured hydrogen sulfide donors for enhanced cancer treatments

open access: yesSmart Molecules, EarlyView.
Three typical kinds of stimuli‐responsive nanostructured hydrogen sulfide (H2S) donors are reviewed. The nanostructures ensure precise delivery of H2S to the lesion site and regulate the release behavior. The H2S‐based gas therapy has been used to synergize with other cancer treatment modalities, achieving enhanced efficacy while reducing side effects.

Peptide‐directed nanovehicles enabling tumor‐selective ROS amplification and antitumor immunity

open access: yesVIEW, EarlyView.
Cancer cells are vulnerable to oxidative stress, yet exploit immune tolerance to escape destruction. In contrast, their metabolic profile is markedly altered to support rapid proliferation, accompanied by elevated production of reactive oxygen species (ROS).

Determination of selected protoporphyrins in Parma ham with use of 5,10,15,20-tetra(4-hydroxyphenyl)porphyrin as a surrogate standard in the recovery study

open access: yesActa Chimica Slovenica, 2014
A high-performance liquid chromatographic analysis for the determination of hemin, protoporphyrin IX (PPIX), and zinc(II)protoporphyrin IX (Zn(II)PPIX) in Parmaham was developed.

Accumulation of protoporphyrin IX and Zn protoporphyrin IX in Cyanidium caldarium [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 1981
In vivo fluorescence studies of Cyanidium caldarium mutants grown in the dark in dextrose-containing media have shown that these organisms accumulate protoporphyrin IX.

Differential Effects of Dupilumab in a Patient With Localized Heat Urticaria, Delayed Solar Urticaria, and Symptomatic Dermographism

open access: yesThe Journal of Dermatology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Physical urticaria is a subtype of chronic inducible urticaria characterized by wheals and/or angioedema triggered by physical stimuli. We report a refractory case of combined localized heat urticaria, delayed solar urticaria, and symptomatic dermographism in a 16‐year‐old girl.

Iron Physiology and Its Impact on Atopic Diseases: An EAACI Taskforce Report

open access: yesAllergy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Iron is essential for oxygen transport, energy metabolism, and immune regulation. Yet iron deficiency is the most common micronutrient disorder across all age groups, affecting nearly one quarter of the global population. Iron deficiency triggers nutritional immunity, a host defense mechanism that withholds and redistributes iron, contributing

Methaemoglobinaemia: From pathophysiology to contemporary clinical management

open access: yesBritish Journal of Haematology, EarlyView.
Summary Methaemoglobin (MetHb) is an oxidised form of haemoglobin (Hb) unable to bind oxygen. Raised levels of MetHb reduce the blood's oxygen‐carrying capacity, causing potentially severe hypoxaemia and possible death. The condition arises from three main pathologies: mutations in globin genes causing Haemoglobin‐M, inherited deficiency of the enzyme ...

Red lines and green lights: Gene therapy for inherited erythroid disorders beyond the haemoglobinopathies

open access: yesBritish Journal of Haematology, EarlyView.
Gene therapy is revolutionizing treatment paradigms for haemoglobinopathies, establishing a translational framework for disorders that impact red blood cell development. In their paper, Joshi et al. describe the preclinical and early clinical landscape of gene therapies for non‐haemoglobinopathy erythroid disorders and highlight common thematic ...
