Gene Information
General description
Hemoglobin (Hb) is the protein responsible for storage and transport of oxygen and other gaseous ligands in red blood cells (RBC). Hb is also the pioneer material for synthesis of Hb-based oxygen carriers (HBOCs) that can be used as substitutes for RBC.
Application
The solubility of α-elastin has been applied to construction of elastin-mimetic biomaterials.
Biochem/physiol Actions
Oxygen transporter, NO scavenger
Oxygen transporter. The Fe2+/Fe3+ balance is a physiological indicator of blood oxygenation; deoxygenated hemoglobin accessorizes a feedback loop by reducing nitrite to NO, a vasodilator which enhances blood flow to oxygen-deprived tissues.
Other Notes

Review: Oxygen carrier proteins
Disclaimer
Since native hemoglobin is readily oxidized in air, these preparations may be predominantly methemoglobin.

Hemoglobin-based oxygen carriers (HBOC) are currently being developed as red blood cell (RBC) substitutes for use in transfusion medicine. Despite significant commercial development, late stage clinical results of polymerized hemoglobin (PolyHb) solutions hamper development. We synthesized two types of PolyHbs

The aim of this study was to determine brain oxygenation in full-term and preterm neonates using near infrared spectroscopy. A total of 88 full-term and preterm newborn infants without hypoxic-ischaemic disorders admitted to the NICU were examined using NIRS on
