Disease relevance of Hmox1

 

Psychiatry related information on Hmox1

  • We suggest that increases in HO-1 transcript and protein reflect a means to elevate levels of antioxidants in cells with compromised defense mechanisms caused by stress [4].
  • HBP23 was constitutively expressed in KC and up-regulated on the protein and messenger RNA (mRNA) level by LPS with a time response distinct from that of TNFalpha, but in coordination with that of heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1), which is the inducible isoform of the rate-limiting enzyme of heme degradation [5].
  • Notably, the HO reaction proceeds without product inhibition by CO, which is generated in the conversion reaction of alpha-hydroxyheme to verdoheme, although CO is known to be a potent inhibitor of HO and other heme proteins [6].
  • Icv injection of the NOS inhibitor Nomega-nitro-L-arginine-methylester (L-NAME; 50 microg) or the HO inhibitor tin protoporphyrin (SnPP; 20-25 microg) significantly blunted the plasma ACTH response to a 45-min session of intermittent electroshocks [7].
  • Intrahippocampal, but not intra-amygdala, infusion of an inhibitor of heme oxygenase causes retrograde amnesia in the rat [8].
 

High impact information on Hmox1

 

Chemical compound and disease context of Hmox1

 

Biological context of Hmox1

  • However, the distinct stress models led to a strikingly different cell-type specific and sublobular expression pattern of HO-1 gene expression [3].
  • The acute administration of an inhibitor of HO to cirrhotic rats, at a dose that normalized aortic HO activity, was associated with significantly greater effects on arterial pressure, total peripheral vascular resistance, and cardiac index, compared with effects in sham rats [2].
  • In contrast, the other HO-1 products failed to block apoptosis or GADD153 expression during ER stress [17].
  • The capacity of ER stress to stimulate the HO-1/CO system provides a novel mechanism by which this organelle regulates cell survival [17].
  • Luciferase reporter assays indicated that ER stress stimulated HO-1 promoter activity via the antioxidant response element [17].
 

Anatomical context of Hmox1

  • Six hours after heat shock, an intense increase in HO-1-like protein was observed in both Purkinje cells of the cerebellum and epithelial cells lining the cerebral aqueduct of the brain [1].
  • HO-1 was mainly located in vascular smooth muscle cells of the arterial wall [2].
  • Although both non-parenchymal cell fractions expressed HO-1 transcripts, HO-1 immunoreactive protein was restricted to Kupffer cells in the normal liver [3].
  • To address this question, the expression and activity of HO in arterial vessels was studied in rats at 1, 2, and 4 weeks after bile duct ligation (BDL) or sham operation [2].
  • A progressively increased expression of HO-1 was found in aorta and mesenteric arteries of BDL rats in a close chronologic relationship with the progression from acute cholestatic liver injury (1 week) to the fully developed cirrhosis with intense systemic arterial vasodilation (4 weeks) [2].
 

Associations of Hmox1 with chemical compounds

 

Physical interactions of Hmox1

 

Regulatory relationships of Hmox1

  • These results suggest that ADM induces HO-1 gene expression and cGMP formation in rat VSMCs [22].
  • We conclude that HO isoform expression is segmented within the kidney and along the nephron and that treatment with an HO-1 inducer suppressed the levels of CYP4A and COX-2 proteins in a tissue-specific manner with concomitant effects on their activity [23].
  • The iNOS inhibitor aminoguanidine significantly suppressed the induction of HO-1 [19].
  • HO-1 was undetectable in CsA-treated rats compared to control while there was no change in HO-2 [24].
  • Furthermore, TGF-beta1 downregulated HO-1 mRNA after its induction by IL-1beta in vascular smooth muscle cells in culture [25].
 

Other interactions of Hmox1

 

Analytical, diagnostic and therapeutic context of Hmox1

  • The induction of a 1.8-kilobase HO-1 mRNA resulted in a pronounced increase in HO-1 protein 6 h after hyperthermia, as detected by both Western immunoblot and RIA [1].
  • Immunocytochemistry of rat brain showed discrete localization of HO-1-like protein only in neurons of select brain regions [1].
  • Because FGF-1 potently activates astroglia and exerts a direct neuroprotection after spinal cord injury or axotomy, we examined whether it regulated the expression of inducible and cytoprotective heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) enzyme in astrocytes [30].
  • Two days following five cycles of 10 min ischemia and 10 min reperfusion, heme oxygenase (HO) and calcium-dependent nitric oxide synthase (cNOS) activities were increased 2- and 2.5-fold (p <.05), respectively [31].
  • Removal of NOS activity completely removed the benefit afforded microvascular perfusion, while inhibition of HO activity prevented the parenchymal protection [31].
