Hemin Activation Abrogates Mycoplasma hyorhinis Replication in Chronically Infected Prostate Cancer Cells via Heme Oxygenase-1 Induction

Researchers described the striking >90% inhibitory effect of hemin, a natural inducer of the cytoprotective enzyme heme oxygenase-1, on M. hyorhinis replication in chronically infected LNCaP prostate cancer cells.
