In the present study, we have investigated S-nitrosation of reactive thioredoxin (Trx) thiol groups in nitric oxide/superoxide system. We have found that Trx thiol groups are the targets for S-nitrosation by N2O3-like species generated in the system containing xanthine/xanthine oxidase (superoxide producing system) and DEA/NO-the *NO donating compound, however, they have shown low sensitivity to the *NO derived from DEA/NO. N2O3-dependent S-nitrosation of Trx at approximately 2-fold of NO excess compared to the superoxide amount resulted in dissociation and activation of apoptosis signal regulating kinase 1 (ASK1). However, approximately 4-fold of NO excess compared to a superoxide production preserved the level of dissociated ASK1 but decreased its activity due to the enzyme S-nitrosation.
在本研究中,我们研究了一氧化氮/超氧化物系统中活性硫氧还蛋白(Trx)巯基的S-亚硝基化作用。我们发现,Trx巯基是由含有黄嘌呤/黄嘌呤氧化酶的系统(超氧化物产生系统)和DEA/NO(一种NO供体化合物)生成的类似N2O3的物质进行S-亚硝基化的靶标,然而,它们对DEA/NO衍生的*NO表现出低敏感性。与超氧化物量相比,在NO过量约2倍时,N2O3依赖性的Trx S-亚硝基化导致凋亡信号调节激酶1(ASK1)的解离和激活。然而,与超氧化物产生量相比,NO过量约4倍时,虽然解离的ASK1水平得以维持,但由于该酶的S-亚硝基化,其活性降低。
