We investigated the dynamics of the induction of heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) in the human brain after death caused by traumatic brain injury (TBI). HO-1 was found to stain neurons and microglia/macrophages in cases with TBI, whereas no positive staining except for a few round cells in the arachnoidal space was observed in control cases. In a case with 7h survival, a considerable number of HO-1 positive neurons and microglia were observed. The number of HO-1 positive cells and level of HO-1 staining gradually increased up to 24h survival. Although HO-1 positive neurons were seldom observed in cases with more than 7-day survival, HO-1 positive microglia were still observed even in cases with 5-month survival. The results indicate that HO-1 may be induced by TBI in human cases, and suggest that prolonged HO-1 induction in microglia might reflect its role in protecting those cells from secondary damage including oxidative stress.

D008264 Macrophages The relatively long-lived phagocytic cell of mammalian tissues that are derived from blood MONOCYTES. Main types are PERITONEAL MACROPHAGES; ALVEOLAR MACROPHAGES; HISTIOCYTES; KUPFFER CELLS of the liver; and OSTEOCLASTS. They may further differentiate within chronic inflammatory lesions to EPITHELIOID CELLS or may fuse to form FOREIGN BODY GIANT CELLS or LANGHANS GIANT CELLS.

D001930 Brain Injuries Acute and chronic (see also BRAIN INJURIES, CHRONIC) injuries to the brain, including the cerebral hemispheres, CEREBELLUM, and BRAIN STEM. Clinical manifestations depend on the nature of injury. Diffuse trauma to the brain is frequently associated with DIFFUSE AXONAL INJURY or COMA, POST-TRAUMATIC. Localized injuries may be associated with NEUROBEHAVIORAL MANIFESTATIONS; HEMIPARESIS, or other focal neurologic deficits.

D006419 Heme Oxygenase (Decyclizing) A mixed function oxidase enzyme which during hemoglobin catabolism catalyzes the degradation of heme to ferrous iron, carbon monoxide and biliverdin in the presence of molecular oxygen and reduced NADPH. The enzyme is induced by metals, particularly cobalt. Haem Oxygenase,Heme Oxygenase,Oxygenase, Haem,Oxygenase, Heme

D016022 Case-Control Studies Comparisons that start with the identification of persons with the disease or outcome of interest and a control (comparison, referent) group without the disease or outcome of interest. The relationship of an attribute is examined by comparing both groups with regard to the frequency or levels of outcome over time.

D017628 Microglia The third type of glial cell, along with astrocytes and oligodendrocytes (which together form the macroglia). Microglia vary in appearance depending on developmental stage, functional state, and anatomical location; subtype terms include ramified, perivascular, ameboid, resting, and activated. Microglia clearly are capable of phagocytosis and play an important role in a wide spectrum of neuropathologies. They have also been suggested to act in several other roles including in secretion (e.g., of cytokines and neural growth factors), in immunological processing (e.g., antigen presentation), and in central nervous system development and remodeling.
