Heme Degradation by Heme Oxygenase Protects Mitochondria but Induces ER Stress via Formed Bilirubin
Heme oxygenase (HO), in conjunction with biliverdin reductase, degrades heme to carbon monoxide, ferrous iron and bilirubin (BR); the latter is a potent antioxidant. The induced isoform HO-1 has evoked intense research interest, especially because it manifests anti-inflammatory and anti-apoptotic effects relieving acute cell stress. The mechanisms by which HO mediates the described effects are ...
متن کاملHomocysteine Induces Heme Oxygenase-1 Expression via Transcription Factor Nrf2 Activation in HepG2 Cells
Background: Elevated level of plasma homocysteine has been related to various diseases. Patients with hyperhomocysteinemia can develop hepatic steatosis and fibrosis. We hypothesized that oxidative stress induced by homocysteine might play an important role in pathogenesis of liver injury. Also, the cellular response designed to combat oxidative stress is primarily controlled by the transcripti...

متن کاملHeme oxygenase-1 protects the heart.
The seminal discovery of nitric oxide (NO) in the 1980s unraveled the novel concept that an endogenous production of a gaseous substance such as NO can impart diverse and critical functional effects on a wide spectrum of biological and pathological processes. Intense investigations in the chemistry and biology of NO have led to numerous fruitful discoveries, enhancing our understanding of many ...
متن کاملMorin Induces Heme Oxygenase-1 via ERK-Nrf2 Signaling Pathway
BACKGROUND Oxidative stress damages to cells or tissues, however, cellular defense systems including heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) protects them against oxidative stress. Flavonoid compounds can activate cellular defense mechanisms against oxidative stress and it can reduce cell damages. In the present study, the cytoprotective effects of morin (3,5,7,2',4'-pentahydroxyflavone), in terms of HO-1 enzy...
