these conditions. Here, we report an enduring antidiabetic effect of the heme oxygenase ( ... Cited by 4 - Related articles - All 4 versions
MP Soares, FH Bach - Trends in Molecular Medicine, 2009 - Elsevier Heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) is a stress-responsive enzyme that catabolizes free heme into carbon
monoxide, iron (which induces the expression of heavy-chain ferritin, an iron-sequestering
protein) and biliverdin (which is converted to bilirubin by biliverdin reductase). Over the ... Cited by 6 - Related articles - All 4 versions

stress depletes adiponectin and insulin levels, we investigated whether an upregulated heme
oxygenase (HO) system would attenuate the oxidative destruction of adiponectin/insulin ... Cited by 4 - Related articles - All 3 versions
