We investigated here the mechanism of cytoprotection of nitric oxide (*NO) in bovine aortic endothelial cells treated with H2O2. NONOates were used as *NO donors that released *NO slowly at a well defined rate in the extracellular and intracellular milieus. H2O2-mediated intracellular dichlorofluorescein fluorescence and apoptosis were enhanced by the transferrin receptor (TfR)-mediated iron uptake. *NO inhibited the TfR-mediated iron uptake, dichlorofluorescein fluorescence, and apoptosis in H2O2-treated cells. *NO increased the proteasomal activity and degradation of nitrated TfR via ubiquitination. Nomega-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester, a nonspecific inhibitor of endogenous *NO biosynthesis, decreased the trypsin-like activity of 26S proteasome. *NO, by activating proteolysis, mitigates TfR-dependent iron uptake, dichlorodihydrofluorescein oxidation, and apoptosis in H2O2-treated bovine aortic endothelial cells. The relevance of biological nitration on redox signaling is discussed.
我们在此研究了一氧化氮(NO)对经过氧化氢(H2O2)处理的牛主动脉内皮细胞的细胞保护机制。NONOate被用作NO供体,其在细胞外和细胞内环境中以明确的速率缓慢释放*NO。转铁蛋白受体(TfR)介导的铁摄取增强了H2O2介导的细胞内二氯荧光素荧光和细胞凋亡。*NO抑制了H2O2处理细胞中TfR介导的铁摄取、二氯荧光素荧光和细胞凋亡。NO通过泛素化增加了蛋白酶体活性以及硝化TfR的降解。Nω-硝基-L-精氨酸甲酯,一种内源性NO生物合成的非特异性抑制剂,降低了26S蛋白酶体的胰蛋白酶样活性。*NO通过激活蛋白水解作用,减轻了H2O2处理的牛主动脉内皮细胞中TfR依赖性铁摄取、二氯二氢荧光素氧化和细胞凋亡。本文讨论了生物硝化作用对氧化还原信号传导的相关性。
