Heme oxygenase-2 gene deletion attenuates oxidative stress in neurons exposed to extracellular hemin
<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Hemin, the oxidized form of heme, accumulates in intracranial hematomas and is a potent oxidant. Growing evidence suggests that it contributes to delayed injury to surrounding tissue, and that this process is affected by the heme oxy...
