The regulation of adrenomedullin and neuroglobin in adult zebrafish during exposure to hypoxia
… in fish. Two such genes are adrenomedullin and neuroglobin. Adrenomedullin is a multifunctional peptide that has shown to be expressed in a number of tissues. Neuroglobin is a recently discovered member of the globin family that is predominantly found in neuronal tissues and has a high affinity …

A role for neuroglobin in the inhibition of cytochrome c-mediated apoptosome formation
… c which has its heme iron in the ferric form. Neuroglobin, a recently discovered globin, protects various cell lines and tissues from apoptosis. Previously, neuroglobin has been shown to efficiently reduce the heme iron of cytochrome c in vitro. We hypothesise that neuroglobin prevents …

Interactions Between Heme-Globins and Ligands
Neuroglobin (Ngb) is a hexacoordinated heme protein closely related to the pentacoordinated hemoglobin (Hb) and myoglobin (Mb) and in the central and peripheral nervous systems with expression in some endocrine tissues.1–5 Ngb is believed to play roles in: sustaining ATP production under anaerobic …

Exploring the Molecular Mechanisms of Human Cytoglobin and its Role in Cancer
… was selected as it affects NiR activity in neuroglobin and L46 affects NOD activity in myoglobin (Mb) and haemoglobin (Hb). In addition to tests on the three proteins, investigations were undertaken on CYGB (WT and mutant) transfected MCF7 and HEK293S cell lines whereby reactions to stimuli …

Vulnerability of ex vivo α-motor nerve terminals to hypoxia-reperfusion injury.
… that indicate that the oxygen storing protein, neuroglobin, maybe expressed at the mouse NMJ and report the difficulties of using mice that express yellow fluorescent protein (YFP) in their neurons for repeat/live imaging studies. Overall, these data show that the model of hypoxia-reperfusion …

Studies of the effect of cysteine and heme pocket mutations of the nitric oxide dioxygenase and nitrite reductase activities of human Cytoglobin and Androglobin heme domain
… with the discovery of additional members like Neuroglobin (Ngb) Cytoglobin (Cygb) and Androglobin (Adgb). These fresh additions are hexacoordinate, unlike Mb and Hb which have their sixth coordination site vacant in the absence of external ligands, Cygb and Adgb have their sixth coordination …
