The heme oxygenase pathway and its interaction with nitric oxide in the control of cellular homeostasis

Foresti, Roberta, Motterlini, Roberto·1999·Free Radical Research

Abstract

Heme oxygenase is the rate limiting enzyme in heme degradation to carbon monoxide (CO), iron and bilirubin. The inducible isoform of the protein, heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1), is susceptible to up-regulation by a diverse variety of conditions and agents in mammalian tissue, leading to the common conception that HO-1 is a stress related enzyme. However, as attempts are made to unravel the mechanisms by which HO-1 is induced and as we discover that CO, iron and bilirubin may be important effector molecules, we are learning to appreciate that heme oxygenases may be central to the regulation of many physiological and pathophysiological processes besides their established function in heme catabolism. One such process may be closely linked to nitric oxide (NO). It has been demonstrated that NO and NO donors are capable of inducing HO-1 protein expression, in a mechanism depending on the de novo synthesis of RNA and protein. Thus, it is postulated that NO may serve as a signaling molecule in the modulation of the tissue stress response. This review will highlight the current ideas on the role of CO-heme oxygenase and NO-nitric oxide synthase in cell signaling and discuss how the two systems are interrelated.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
