Heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) is crucial in regulating oxidative injury. The present study was designed to assess whether HO-1 upregulation by cobalt protoporphyrin IX (CoPP) moderates or prevents the diabetic state in non-obese diabetic (NOD) mice, an animal model for Type 1 diabetes (T1D). HO-1 expression and HO activity were upregulated in the pancreas by the intermittent administration of CoPP. This was associated with decreases in blood glucose and pancreatic O2-, but increased pAKT and BcL-XL and cell survival. A considerable number of beta cells were preserved in the islets of CoPP-treated NOD mice, while none were found in untreated diabetic mice. The number of CD11c+ dendritic cells was decreased in the pancreas of CoPP-treated NOD mice (p < 0.05). These novel findings provide a link between the increase in HO-1 and a decrease in infiltrated CD11c+ dendritic cells, and suggest that induction of HO-1 activity can be used to enhance cell survival and moderate the diabetic state in T1D.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D010179 Pancreas A nodular organ in the ABDOMEN that contains a mixture of ENDOCRINE GLANDS and EXOCRINE GLANDS. The small endocrine portion consists of the ISLETS OF LANGERHANS secreting a number of hormones into the blood stream. The large exocrine portion (EXOCRINE PANCREAS) is a compound acinar gland that secretes several digestive enzymes into the pancreatic ductal system that empties into the DUODENUM.
D001786 Blood Glucose Glucose in blood. Blood Sugar,Glucose, Blood,Sugar, Blood
D003922 Diabetes Mellitus, Type 1 A subtype of DIABETES MELLITUS that is characterized by INSULIN deficiency. It is manifested by the sudden onset of severe HYPERGLYCEMIA, rapid progression to DIABETIC KETOACIDOSIS, and DEATH unless treated with insulin. The disease may occur at any age, but is most common in childhood or adolescence.
