Haem oxygenase-1: non-canonical roles in physiology and pathology.
HO-1 (haem oxygenase-1) is a ubiquitously expressed inducible enzyme degrading haem to CO, biliverdin and Fe(2+). Its activation reduces oxidative stress in cells and inhibits inflammation, both due to removal of haem and because of the biological activity of HO-1 products. CO may act similarly to NO, activating soluble guanylate cyclase and elevating cGMP production. It inhibits platelet aggre...
متن کاملMammalian sirtuins--emerging roles in physiology, aging, and calorie restriction.
Sir2 is an NAD-dependent deacetylase that connects metabolism with longevity in yeast, worms and flies. Mammals contain seven homologs of yeast Sir2, SIRT1-7. Here, we review recent findings demonstrating the role of these mammalian sirtuins as regulators of physiology, calorie restriction, and aging. The current findings sharpen our understanding of sirtuins as potential pharmacological target...
متن کاملDiscovery of cytoglobin and its roles in physiology and pathology of hepatic stellate cells
Cytoglobin (CYGB), a new member of the globin family, was discovered in 2001 as a protein associated with stellate cell activation (stellate cell activation-associated protein [STAP]). Knowledge of CYGB, including its crystal, gene, and protein structures as well as its physiological and pathological importance, has increased progressively. We investigated the roles of oxygen (O2)-binding CYGB ...
متن کاملUrobilin Physiology and Pathology
Further evidence is presented, in addition to that of our previous papers, that the intestinal tract is, under ordinary circumstances, the sole place of origin of urobilin. So long as the biliary tract remains sterile the presence of the pigment in bile and urine is entirely dependent upon the passage of bile to the intestine. Animals rendered urobilin-free by the collection of all the bile fro...
متن کاملPhysiology and Pathology of Plants
In order to study the effects of solutions on the life processes of a tree it is desirable to introduce them directly into the trunk, since when added to the soil they may be greatly modified and it is often difficult to determine what actually enters the tree. The direct injection of trees and other plants with solutions seemed until recently to offer insuperable difficulties from a practical ...
