The biological actions of artemisinin (ART), an antimalarial drug derived from Artemisia annua, remain poorly understood and controversial. Besides potent antimalarial activity, some of artemisinin derivatives (together with artemisinin, hereafter referred to as ARTs), in particular dihydroartemisinin (DHA), are also associated with anticancer and other antiparasitic activities. In this study, ...
Hypertyrosinemia (HT) is a life-threatening condition caused in large part by the buildup of tyrosine metabolites and their derivatives. One such metabolite is succinylacetone (SA), a potent irreversible inhibitor of heme biosynthesis. Heme is a key component of numerous enzymes involved in arterial blood pressure (BP) regulation, including nitric-oxide synthase (NOS) and its downstream mediato...
Protein synthesis in reticulocytes depends on the availability of heme. In heme deficiency, inhibition of protein synthesis correlates with the activation of heme-regulated eIF-2alpha kinase (HRI), which blocks the initiation of protein synthesis by phosphorylating eIF-2alpha. HRI is a hemoprotein with 2 distinct heme-binding domains. Heme negatively regulates HRI activity by binding directly t...
Leishmaniasis is an important parasitic disease found in the tropics and subtropics. Cutaneous and visceral leishmaniasis affect an estimated 1.5 million people worldwide. Despite its human health relevance, relatively little is known about the cell death pathways that control Leishmania replication in the host. Necroptosis is a recently identified form of cell death with potent antiviral effec...
Haem controls the rate of haem synthesis in erythroid cells by inhibiting iron incorporation from transferrin. The present results indicate that haem primarily inhibits the release of iron from transferrin subsequent to transferrin endocytosis and that the inhibition of transferrin endocytosis caused by relatively high concentrations of haem is a secondary effect. Low concentrations of haem (10...
Heme is required for survival of all cells, and in most eukaryotes, is produced through a series of eight enzymatic reactions. Although heme production is critical for many cellular processes, how it is coupled to cellular differentiation is unknown. Here, using zebrafish, murine, and human models, we show that erythropoietin (EPO) signaling, together with the GATA1 transcriptional target, AKAP...
The interaction of heme with blood serum proteins plays an important role in many physiological and pathological processes involving enzyme activity, gene expression cell proliferation. mechanisms underlying these interactions are; however, not yet fully understood. New analytical methods able to investigate protein-heme binding native, biologically representative conditions are thus required. ...
The ability of antimony and antimony-containing parasiticidal agents to enhance the rate of heme degradation in liver and kidney was investigated. Trivalent antimony was shown to be an extremely potent inducer of heme oxygenase, the initial and rate-limiting enzyme in heme degradation, in both organs, whereas the pentavalent form was a weak inducer of this enzyme. The ability of antimony to ind...
An important role in ensuring the functioning of respiratory chain belongs to cytochrome part, which includes complexes III (ubiquinol-cytochrome c oxidoreductase) and IV (cytochrome oxidase). The key components these enzymatic are heme-containing cytochromes, number depends on balance heme synthesis catabolism. δ-Aminolevulinate synthase catalyzes first step biosynthetic pathway, while oxygena...
In oxygen-sensing PAS domains, a conserved polar residue on the proximal side of the heme cofactor, usually arginine or histidine, interacts alternately with the protein in the "on-state" or the heme edge in the "off-state" but does not contact the bound ligand directly. We assessed the contributions of this residue in Bradyrhizobium japonicum FixL by determining the effects of an R206A substit...
