General Information | Comment | Organism |
---|---|---|
physiological function | heme oxygenase-1 is the limiting enzyme in heme catabolism. Induction of HO-1 expression decreases dramatically NADPH oxidase Nox4 activity in C-20/A4 and HEK-293T-RExTM Nox4 cell lines, mediated by carbon monoxide, the decrease is not accompanied by any change in the expression, the subcellular localization or the maturation of Nox4. Inhibition of the heme synthesis by succinylacetone rather than heme catabolism by HO-1, leads to a confinement of the Nox4/p22phox heterodimer in the endoplasmic reticulum with an absence of redox differential spectrum highlighting an incomplete maturation. HO-1 decreases MMP-1 expression and chondrocytes DNA fragmentation via CO release | Homo sapiens |
