Description

Description

Specificity
This antibody recognizes human, mouse, and rat HO-1. It does not cross-react with HO-2.
Background
Heme oxygenase (HO) is a membrane-bound enzyme that catalyzes the degradation of heme into biliverdin, carbon monoxide (CO), and free iron. Biliverdin is subsequently converted to bilirubin, a potent antioxidant. There are two main isoforms of HO: the inducible HO-1 and the constitutively expressed HO-2.

HO-1 is upregulated in response to a broad range of stress signals, including oxidative stress, inflammatory cytokines, heat shock, and transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-β). Its induction is considered a key cellular protective mechanism, helping to mitigate oxidative damage through the production of antioxidant byproducts. Due to its role in cytoprotection and inflammation modulation, HO-1 is widely studied in the context of cardiovascular, neurodegenerative, and inflammatory diseases.
Function
Heme oxygenase cleaves the heme ring at the alpha methene bridge to form biliverdin. Biliverdin is subsequently converted to bilirubin by biliverdin reductase. Under physiological conditions, the activity of heme oxygenase is highest in the spleen, where senescent erythrocytes are sequestrated and destroyed. Exhibits cytoprotective effects since excess of free heme sensitizes cells to undergo apoptosis.
