The interaction of heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) and caveolin in the cultured mouse mesangial cells (MMC) was investigated. In normal MMCs, high levels of caveolin-2 and low level of caveolin-1 at mRNA and protein level were observed without any detectable expression of caveolin-3. Upon treating the MMCs either with cadmium (Cd) or spermine NONOate (SPER/NO), expression of HO-1 mRNA and protein was increased. Caveolae rich membranous fractions from the MMCs treated with Cd or SPER/NO contained both HO-1 and caveolin-1 or caveolin-2. The experiments of immuno-precipitation showed complex formation between the HO-1 and caveolin-1 or caveolin-2 in the Cd treated MMCs. Confocal microscopic results also support co-localization of HO-1 and caveolin-1 or caveolin-2 at the plasma membrane. Co-localization of caveolins with HO-1 in caveolae suggested that caveolin could also play an important role in regulating the function of HO-1.
