Ostreopexin: a hemopexin fold protein from the oyster mushroom, Pleurotus ostreatus.
Biochim. Biophys. Acta 1834(8) , 1468-73, (2013) Proteins with hemopexin repeats are widespread in viruses, prokaryotes and eukaryotes. We report here for the first time the existence of a protein in fungi with the four-bladed β-propeller fold that is typical for hemopexin-like proteins. This protein was is... |

Inhibition of endogenous MTF-1 signaling in zebrafish embryos identifies novel roles for MTF-1 in development.
Biochim. Biophys. Acta 1843(9) , 1818-33, (2014) The metal responsive element-binding transcription factor-1 (MTF-1) responds to changes in cellular zinc levels caused by zinc exposure or disruption of endogenous zinc homeostasis by heavy metals or oxygen-related stress. Here we report the functional charac... |

Hemopexin-dependent heme uptake via endocytosis regulates the Bach1 transcription repressor and heme oxygenase gene activation.
Biochim. Biophys. Acta 1840(7) , 2351-60, (2014) Intracellular heme plays versatile roles in a variety of physiological processes including mitochondrial respiration. Heme also induces the expression of genes such as heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) by inactivating the transcription repressor Bach1 through direct bi... |

Acute hepatic ischemic-reperfusion injury induces a renal cortical "stress response," renal "cytoresistance," and an endotoxin hyperresponsive state.
Am. J. Physiol. Renal Physiol. 307(7) , F856-68, (2014) Hepatic ischemic-reperfusion injury (HIRI) is considered a risk factor for clinical acute kidney injury (AKI). However, HIRI's impact on renal tubular cell homeostasis and subsequent injury responses remain ill-defined. To explore this issue, 30-45 min of par... |

Differential proteome profiling of pleural effusions from lung cancer and benign inflammatory disease patients.
Biochim. Biophys. Acta 1824(4) , 692-700, (2012) The pleural effusion proteome has been found containing information that directly reflects pathophysiological status and represents a potential diagnostic value for pulmonary diseases. However, the variability in protein composition between malignant and beni... |

Hemopexin is up-regulated in plasma from type 1 diabetes mellitus patients: Role of glucose-induced ROS.
J. Proteomics 75(12) , 3760-77, (2012) Type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) is an insulin-dependent metabolic disease in the world and often occurs in children and adolescents. Recent advances in quantitative proteomics offer potential for the discovery of plasma proteins as biomarkers for tracking dis... |

Reduced hemopexin levels in peritoneal fluid of patients with endometriosis.
Fertil. Steril. 100(3) , 777-81, (2013) To study altered hemopexin concentrations in peritoneal fluid (PF) samples from patients with endometriosis. Recent data implicate a role of altered iron metabolism in endometriosis patients. Hemopexin is the major transport protein for heme. Like iron, heme ... |

Plasma and urine proteomic profiles in childhood idiopathic nephrotic syndrome.
Proteomics. Clin. Appl. 6(7-8) , 382-93, (2012) Idiopathic nephrotic syndrome (NS) is characterized by proteinuria, edema, and hypoalbuminemia. The aim of the study was to identify differentially expressed proteins in urine and plasma during NS compared with remission.Plasma and urine samples were collecte... |

Increased urinary excretion of albumin, hemopexin, transferrin and VDBP correlates with chronic sensitization to gentamicin nephrotoxicity in rats.
Toxicology 304 , 83-91, (2013) Drug nephrotoxicity is a serious health and economic problem worldwide. Rats can be acutely sensitized to acute kidney injury (AKI) by subnephrotoxic treatments with potentially nephrotoxic drugs. Acquired sensitization to AKI poses a silent risk impossible t... |

Specialization of the sting venom and skin mucus of Cathorops spixii reveals functional diversification of the toxins.
Toxicon 59(6) , 651-65, (2012) Cathorops spixii is the most common venomous fish on the Brazilian coast. Apart from the involvement with defense against pathogens, the possible contribution of skin mucus components to the development of injuries caused by venomous fish species has not been... |
