Biological Activity
Heme oxygenase[1]
Hemin and PGJ2, used as positive controls, strongly increase both expression and activity of HMOX after 4 and 12 h, respectively. Indeed, a significant effect is found of 30 μM Hemin on cell proliferation in all used cell lines after 48 h, which is dose-dependent. Hemin treatment decreases cell proliferation to 62±5 %, 51±3 %, and 38±8 % in PA-TU-8902, BxPC-3 and MiaPaCa-2 cancer cells, respectively, with p<0.0001 for all comparisons. Furthermore, enhancement of anti-proliferative effects of statins is observed by Hemin, documented as decreased cell proliferation after 48 h of co-treatment[1].

Protocol
For the cell proliferation assay, cells are seeded into 96 well (5-12.5×104 cells per mL according to the cell line) and kept at 37°C and 5 % CO2. After 24 h, cells are treated with statins or/and Hemin, followed by the MTT test as a general cell proliferation assay[1].
MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.
Mice[2]
Eight- to ten-week-old male BABL/c mice are used for the ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) experiments. The animals are divided into five groups as follows: (1) the sham group undergo isolation of the bilateral renal arteries without clamping; (2) the vehicle group receive an intraperitoneal (i.p.) injection of 4 mL/kg PBS as a vehicle control (with IRI); (3) the Hemin-preconditioned group receive Hemin, a potent inducer of HO-1, at 100 μmol/kg i.p.; (4) the Hemin plus ZnPP group receive zinc protoporphyrin IX, an inhibitor of HO-1 activity, at 5 mg/kg i.p. 6 h after receiving 100 μmol/kg Hemin i.p.; and (5) the Hemin plus PD98059 group receive PD98059, an inhibitor of ERK1/2 activity, at 10 mg/kg i.p. 6 h after receiving 100 μmol/kg Hemin i.p. Both inhibitors are administered i.p. 2 h before I/R, whereas Hemin was administered 8 h before I/R.
