Heme oxygenase-1 gene activation by the NAD(P)H oxidase inhibitor 4-(2-aminoethyl) benzenesulfonyl fluoride via a protein kinase B, p38-dependent signaling pathway in monocytes.

Abstract excerpt

Heme oxygenase (HO)-1 is the inducible isoform of the rate-limiting enzyme of heme degradation and modulates the inflammatory immune response. Because HO-1 is up-regulated by NAD(P)H oxidase activators such as lipopolysaccharide and 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate in monocytic cells, we investigated the gene regulation of HO-1 by the chemical NAD(P)H oxidase inhibitor 4-(2-aminoethyl) benzenesulfonyl...
