Hemin, a heme oxygenase substrate analog, inhibits the cell surface expression of CD11b and CD66b on human neutrophils

Abstract: Our results demonstrate that expressions of neutrophil cell surface glycoproteins are changed during the season in patents with intermittent allergic rhinitis and that hemin, a substrate for CO production, may act as an inhibitor of neutrophil activation. This indicates a possible role for CO in the immune defense system.

“…Neutrophils expressing higher levels of adhesion molecules would preferentially migrate to the lungs and nose following allergic challenge, and therefore the cells remaining would consist of a population with lower surface levels of adhesion molecules. These data suggest that these adhesion molecules are key to neutrophil recruitment to the lungs and nose in allergic processes [17], [28], [29], [30], [31]. In addition to the presented data, we have previously shown that the activation of neutrophils from allergic patient through the IgE-receptor galectin-3 induces the downmodulation of CD62L expression and the release of key inflammatory mediators [8], [14].…”

“…The significance of the catalytic activity of the HO system is accentuated by the fact that heme itself is an effector molecule that can regulate inflammatory response (Andersson et al, 2002) and activate molecular oxygen (Aust and Svingen, 1982). Collectively, the multidimensional functions of the system has lead to the current understanding that increase in cellular HO activity is a mechanism for protecting the cell against untoward stimuli such as ischemia/reperfusion insult to organs including the kidney (reviewed in Hill-Kapturczak et al, 2002).…”

“…The expression of P and E selectin in different regional vascular beds of the rat was increased in lipopolysaccharide-treated animals, and the overexpression of selectins was decreased in a similar fashion by pretreatment with hemin, bilirubin, biliverdin, but not by exogenous CO gas (34). CO is endogenously produced in the upper respiratory tract, and increased compensatory levels have been reported in allergic inflammation of the airways (35).…”
