Figure Lengend Snippet: Biochemical validation of HCAR2 as a receptor for heme, illustrated by direct ligand/receptor binding. (A) Comparison by SPR of the interaction of immobilized recombinant HCAR2 compared to C3b (negative control) with different concentrations of heme (39 to 2500 nM). (B) Analysis of HCAR2-heme interaction by spectroscopy (0.35 to 10.2 μM). (C) Absorbance at the Soret peak (414 nM) as a function of the molar excess of heme over the protein. RU, response units.

Figure Lengend Snippet: HCAR2 is overexpressed in hemolytic and SCD mice and its expression is regulated by heme/HO-1 axis. (A) Schematic overview of the experiment performed on mice. (B) Heat map of the normalized counts of the 3 main Hcar2 transcription factors of PHZ vs PBS (upper) and HbSS vs HbAA mice (lower). Normalized counts in each mouse are represented with row scale normalization. (C-F) Spearman correlation of Hcar2 and Hmox1 normalized gene expression levels in PHZ- and PBS-treated mice from RNAseq (C) and QuantiGene data (E) and HbSS and HbAA mice from RNAseq (D) and QuantiGene data (F). (G) QuantiGene analysis of Hcar2 gene expression levels in PHZ- and PBS-treated mice. (H) QuantiGene analysis of Hcar2 gene expression levels in HbSS and HbAA mice, either treated with PBS (left) or pretreated with SnMP, followed by an injection of 24-μM heme (right). (I-J) QuantiGene analysis of Hcar2 expression in HbAA mice injected with heme. (I) Level of expression of Hcar2 . (J) Spearman correlation of Hcar2 and Hmox1 normalized gene expression in the HbAA mice injected with PBS or heme. ∗∗∗∗ P < .0001; ∗ P < .05; Mann-Whitney test in panels G,I. ∗ P < .05; Kruskal-Wallis with Dunn test for multiple pairwise comparisons in panel H.
