The Expression of Heme Oxygenase-1 in Human-Derived Cancer Cell Lines
Background: Heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) is a cytoprotective and antiapoptotic enzyme, which has been involved in maintaining cellular homeostasis, and plays an important protective role by modulating oxidative injury. Up-regulation of (HO-1) has contributed to tumorogenicity of some cancers. In this study we investigated the expression pattern of the HO-1, in five different human-derived cancer cel...
متن کاملInduction of Heme Oxygenase -1 By Lipocalin 2 Mediated By Nf-Kb Transcription Factor
Purpose: Effect of lipocalin 2 on the expression of heme oxygenase I , II and NF-kB transcription factor was the purpose of this survey. Materials and Methods: Lcn2 was cloned to pcDNA3.1 plasmid by using genetic engineering method. The recombinant vector was transfected to CHO and HEK293T to establish stable cell expressing lipocalin 2. The presence of lipocalin 2 gene in these cells was confi...
متن کاملThe Status of Nitric Oxide and its Backup, Heme Oxygenase 1, in Thromboangiitis Obliterans
Background: Until recently, a gene polymorphism in the promoter region of endothelial nitric oxide synthase has been suggested as a risk factor for thromboangiitis obliterans (TAO) development. The aim of this study was to compare the metabolites of nitric oxide (NO) and its backup, heme-oxygenase-1 (HMOX1), between TAO patients and those of a smoking control group matched by race, age, sex, an...
متن کاملPharmacologic induction of heme oxygenase-1.
Heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) is a cytoprotective protein whose expression is consistently associated with therapeutic benefits in a number of pathologic conditions such as atherosclerotic vascular disease and inflammation. Although the expression of HO-1 in most tissues is low, a large number of clinical and experimental pharmacologic compounds have been demonstrated to induce HO-1. This induction i...
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 ...
