The sinister face of heme oxygenase-1 in brain aging and disease

Progress in Neurobiology
H M SchipperMarisa Cressatti

Abstract

Under stressful conditions, cellular heme catabolism to carbon monoxide, iron and biliverdin is mediated by the 32 kDa enzyme, heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1). A wide range of pro-oxidant and inflammatory stimuli act on diverse consensus sequences within the Hmox1 promoter to rapidly induce the gene. There is ample evidence attesting to the beneficial effects of HO-1 upregulation in brain. By converting pro-oxidant heme to the antioxidants, biliverdin and bilirubin, HO-1/biliverdin reductase may help restore a more favorable tissue redox microenvironment. Contrariwise, in some cell types and under certain circumstances, heme-derived carbon monoxide and iron may amplify intracellular oxidative stress and exacerbate the disease process. This inimical side of neural HO-1 has often been ignored in biomedical literature promulgating interventions aimed at boosting central HO-1 expression for the management of diverse CNS conditions and is the focus of the current review. A comprehensive model of astroglial stress is presented wherein sustained Hmox1 induction promotes oxidative mitochondrial membrane damage, iron sequestration and mitophagy (macroautophagy). The HO-1 mediated gliopathy renders nearby neuronal constituents vulnerable to oxid...Continue Reading
