The detection of 3-nitro-L-tyrosine residues associated with many disease states, including gastric cancer, has implicated a role for peroxynitrite in vivo, and thus endogenously produced nitric oxide and superoxide. Additionally, dietary nitrate has been suggested to be involved in the pathogenesis of gastric cancer through a mechanism involving reduction to nitrite and subsequent formation of potentially mutagenic nitrosocompounds. Studies have now demonstrated that a multitude of reactive nitrogen species other than peroxynitrite are capable of producing nitrotyrosine. Thus, we have reviewed the evidence that dietary nitrate, amongst other reactive nitrogen species, may contribute to the body burden of nitrotyrosine. 相似文献

The nitration of free tyrosine or protein tyrosine residues generates 3-nitrotyrosine the detection of which has been utilised as a footprint for the in vivo formation of peroxynitrite and other reactive nitrogen species. The detection of 3-nitrotyrosine by analytical and immunological techniques has established that tyrosine nitration occurs under physiological conditions and levels increase in most disease states. This review provides an updated, comprehensive and detailed summary of the tissue, cellular and specific protein localisation of 3-nitrotyrosine and its quantification. The potential consequences of nitration to protein function and the pathogenesis of disease are also examined together with the possible effects of protein nitration on signal transduction pathways and on the metabolism of proteins. 相似文献

High temperature (HT) is considered a major abiotic stress that negatively affects both vegetative and reproductive growth. Whereas the metabolism of reactive oxygen species (ROS) is well established under HT, less is known about the metabolism of reactive nitrogen species (RNS). In sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.) seedlings exposed to HT, NO content as well as S-nitrosoglutathione reductase (GSNOR) activity and expression were down-regulated with the simultaneous accumulation of total S-nitrosothiols (SNOs) including S-nitrosoglutathione (GSNO). However, the content of tyrosine nitration (NO(2) -Tyr) studied by high-performance liquid chromatography with tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) and by confocal laser scanning microscope was induced. Nitroproteome analysis under HT showed that this stress induced the protein expression of 13 tyrosine-nitrated proteins. Among the induced proteins, ferredoxin-NADP reductase (FNR) was selected to evaluate the effect of nitration on its activity after heat stress and in vitro conditions using 3-morpholinosydnonimine (SIN-1) (peroxynitrite donor) as the nitrating agent, the FNR activity being inhibited. Taken together, these results suggest that HT augments SNOs, which appear to mediate protein tyrosine nitration, inhibiting FNR, which is involved in the photosynthesis process. 相似文献

Protein tyrosine nitration (PTN) is a selective post-translational modification often associated with pathophysiological conditions. Although yeast cells lack of mammalian nitric oxide synthase (NOS) orthologues, still it has been shown that they are capable of producing nitric oxide (NO). Our studies showed that NO or reactive nitrogen species (RNS) produced in flavohemoglobin mutant (Δyhb1) strain along with the wild type strain (Y190) of Saccharomyces cerevisiae can be visualized using specific probe 4,5-diaminofluorescein diacetate (DAF-2DA). Δyhb1 strain of S. cerevisiae showed bright fluorescence under confocal microscope that proves NO or RNS accumulation is more in absence of flavohemoglobin. We further investigated PTN profile of both cytosol and mitochondria of Y190 and Δyhb1 cells of S. cerevisiae using two-dimensional (2D) gel electrophoresis followed by western blot analysis. Surprisingly, we observed many immunopositive spots both in cytosol and in mitochondria from Y190 and Δyhb1 using monoclonal anti-3-nitrotyrosine antibody indicating a basal level of NO or nitrite or peroxynitrite is produced in yeast system. To identify proteins nitrated in vivo we analyzed mitochondrial proteins from Y190 strains of S. cerevisiae. Among the eight identified proteins, two target mitochondrial proteins are aconitase and isocitrate dehydrogenase that are involved directly in the citric acid cycle. This investigation is the first comprehensive study to identify mitochondrial proteins nitrated in vivo. 相似文献

In response to flooding/waterlogging, plants develop various anatomical changes including the formation of lysigenous aerenchyma for the delivery of oxygen to roots. Under hypoxia, plants produce high levels of nitric oxide (NO) but the role of this molecule in plant‐adaptive response to hypoxia is not known. Here, we investigated whether ethylene‐induced aerenchyma requires hypoxia‐induced NO. Under hypoxic conditions, wheat roots produced NO apparently via nitrate reductase and scavenging of NO led to a marked reduction in aerenchyma formation. Interestingly, we found that hypoxically induced NO is important for induction of the ethylene biosynthetic genes encoding ACC synthase and ACC oxidase. Hypoxia‐induced NO accelerated production of reactive oxygen species, lipid peroxidation, and protein tyrosine nitration. Other events related to cell death such as increased conductivity, increased cellulase activity, DNA fragmentation, and cytoplasmic streaming occurred under hypoxia, and opposing effects were observed by scavenging NO. The NO scavenger cPTIO (2‐(4‐carboxyphenyl)‐4,4,5,5‐tetramethylimidazoline‐1‐oxyl‐3‐oxide potassium salt) and ethylene biosynthetic inhibitor CoCl2 both led to reduced induction of genes involved in signal transduction such as phospholipase C, G protein alpha subunit, calcium‐dependent protein kinase family genes CDPK, CDPK2, CDPK 4, Ca‐CAMK, inositol 1,4,5‐trisphosphate 5‐phosphatase 1, and protein kinase suggesting that hypoxically induced NO is essential for the development of aerenchyma. 相似文献

We investigated the protective effects of Glycyrrhizae Radix extract against peroxynitrite (ONOO-)-induced oxidative stress under in vivo as well as in vitro conditions. The extract showed strong ONOO- and nitric oxide (NO) scavenging effects under in vitro system, in particular higher activity against ONOO-. Furthermore, elevations of plasma 3-nitrotyrosine levels, indicative of in vivo ONOO- generation and NO production, were shown using a rat in vivo ONOO--generation model of lipopolysaccharide injection plus ischemia-reperfusion. The administration of Glycyrrhizae Radix extract at doses of 30 and 60 mg/kg body weight/day for 30 days significantly reduced the concentrations of 3-nitrotyrosine and NO and decreased inducible NO synthase activity. In addition, the nitrated tyrosine protein level and myeloperoxidase activity in the kidney were significantly lower in rats given Glycyrrhizae Radix extract than in control rats. However, the administration of Glycyrrhizae Radix extract did not result in either significant elevation of glutathione levels or reduction of lipid peroxidation in renal mitochondria. Moreover, the in vivo ONOO- generation system resulted in renal functional impairment, reflected by increased plasma levels of urea nitrogen and creatinine, whereas the administration of Glycyrrhizae Radix extract reduced these levels significantly, implying that the renal dysfunction induced by ONOO- was ameliorated. The present study suggests that Glycyrrhizae Radix extract could protect the kidneys against ONOO- through scavenging ONOO- and/or its precursor NO, inhibiting protein nitration and improving renal dysfunction caused by ONOO-. 相似文献

Nitrated derivatives of unsaturated fatty acids are formed under oxidative and nitrative stress conditions, and are detected and structurally characterized in cell membranes, cardiac tissue, human plasma, and urine. Nitro-fatty acids display pleiotropic activities, including modulation of macrophage activation, prevention of leukocyte and platelet activation, and promotion of blood vessel relaxation. However, mechanisms of formation and levels reached in inflammatory milieu are poorly characterized. In this review, we discuss potential mechanisms of formation of nitro-fatty acids and their key chemical and biochemical properties. A major focus is to analyze nitrated lipids as novel signaling mediators leading to secondary changes in protein function via electrophilic-based modifications as well as inhibition of inflammatory cell function, thus representing the convergence of lipid and nitric oxide signaling pathways. 相似文献

Tamoxifen inhibits nitrotyrosine formation after reversible middle cerebral artery occlusion in the rat 总被引:9,自引:0,他引:9

Tamoxifen (TAM), a widely used non-steroidal anti-estrogen, has recently been shown to be neuroprotective in a rat model of reversible middle cerebral artery occlusion (rMCAo). Tamoxifen has several potential mechanisms of action including inhibition of the release of excitatory amino acids (EAA) and nitric oxide synthase (NOS) activity. The question addressed in this study was whether TAM reduces ischemia-induced production of nitrotyrosine, considered as a footprint of the product of nitric oxide and superoxide, peroxynitrite. In rat brain, 2 h rMCAo produced a time-dependent increase in nitrotyrosine content in the cerebral cortex, as measured by Western blot analysis. Compared with vehicle, TAM significantly reduced nitrotyrosine levels in the ischemic cortex at 24 h. The neuronal (n)NOS inhibitor, 7-nitroindazole also tended to reduce nitrotyrosine, but this reduction was not statistically significant. Immunostaining for nitrotyrosine was seen in cortical neurons in the MCA territory and this immunostaining was reduced by TAM. In vitro, TAM and the calmodulin inhibitor trifluoperazine inhibited, with similar EC(50) values, the activity of recombinant nNOS as well as NOS activity in brain homogenates, measured by conversion of [(3)H]arginine to [(3)H]citrulline. There was marginal inhibition of recombinant inducible (i)NOS activity up to 100 microM TAM. These data suggest that TAM is an effective inhibitor of Ca(2+)/calmodulin-dependent NOS and the derived peroxynitrite production in transient focal cerebral ischemia and this may be one mechanism for its neuroprotective effect following rMCAo. 相似文献

The NO world for plants: achieving balance in an open system 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5

Nitric oxide (NO) is a free radical that had been known for many years simply as a toxic air pollutant. The discovery of enzymatic NO production in many living organisms has established a new paradigm: NO being an essential molecule endogenously produced in the cells. In plant science it has been suggested that NO acts as a plant hormone equivalent to ethylene; that is, as a gaseous signal transmitter. Even after experiencing such a scientific breakthrough, however, researchers may still feel difficulty in exploring plant NO signalling systems with conventional approaches. A major difference between plants and animals is that the growth and development of plants is closely linked to the surrounding environment where NO levels vary according to biotic and abiotic activities. This fundamental difference may make the NO-signalling network system of plants larger and more complicated than that of vertebrates. This review intends to show prospects for the future of NO signalling research in plants by introducing a holistic concept to aid in the exploration of complicated systems such as the plant-environment system. Furthermore, the novel ONS hypothesis is proposed to encompass the complexity and simplicity of NO in chemistry, biochemistry and physiology. 相似文献

The importance of nitric oxide (NO) as a signaling molecule to various plant physiological and pathophysiological processes is becoming increasingly evident. However, little is known about how plants protect themselves from nitrosative and oxidative damage mediated by NO and NO-derived reactive nitrogen species (RNS). Peroxynitrite, the product of the reaction between NO and superoxide anion, is considered to play a central role in RNS-induced cytotoxicity, as a result of its potent ability to oxidize diverse biomolecules. Employing heterologous expression in bacteria and yeast, we investigated peroxynitrite-scavenging activity in plants of 2-Cys peroxiredoxin (2CPRX), originally identified as a hydroperoxide-reducing peroxidase that is ubiquitously distributed among organisms. The putative mature form of a chloroplast-localized 2CPRX from Arabidopsis thaliana was overproduced in Escherichia coli as an amino-terminally hexahistidine-tagged fusion protein. The purified recombinant 2CPRX, which was catalytically active as peroxidase, efficiently prevented the peroxynitrite-induced oxidation of a sensitive compound. We also examined in vivo the ability of the Arabidopsis 2CPRX to complement the 2CPRX deficiency of a Saccharomyces cerevisiae mutant. Functional expression in the mutant strain of the Arabidopsis 2CPRX not only increased cellular tolerance to hydrogen peroxide, but also complemented the hypersensitive growth defect induced by nitrite-mediated cytotoxicity. The complemented cells significantly enhanced the capacity to reduce RNS-mediated oxidative damages. The results presented here demonstrate a new role of plant 2CPRX as a critical determinant of the resistance to RNS, and support the existence of a plant enzymatic basis for RNS metabolism. 相似文献

The human eosinophilic leukemia cell line, EoL-1, differentiated with butyrate as an eosinophilic cellular model was evaluated for peroxidase-dependent tyrosine nitration. Butyrate suppressed cell growth and induced eosinophilic granules in EoL-1 cells after 9 days of culture. Peroxidase activity was detected biochemically and histochemically from 3-day cultures and it increased in a time dependent manner. This peroxidase activity was inhibited by cyanide. Nitrotyrosine formation catalysed by peroxidase using hydrogen peroxide and nitrite was detected at a high level similar to that of mature eosinophils. However, no expression of eosinophil peroxidase (EPO) was detected by RT-PCR or immunocytochemistry. In contrast, the induction of myeloperoxidase (MPO) by butyrate was clearly detected by RT-PCR, Northern blot, and immunocytochemical staining. These results suggest that butyrate induces MPO rather than EPO in EoL-1 cells and that the formation of nitrotyrosine in butyrate-induced cells is dependent on MPO. 相似文献

Using NO specific probe (MNIP-Cu), rapid nitric oxide (NO) accumulation as a response to auxin (IAA) treatment has been observed in the protoplasts from the hypocotyls of sunflower seedlings (Helianthus annuus L.). Incubation of protoplasts in presence of NPA (auxin efflux blocker) and PTIO (NO scavenger) leads to significant reduction in NO accumulation, indicating that NO signals represent an early signaling event during auxin-induced response. A surge in NO production has also been demonstrated in whole hypocotyl explants showing adventitious root (AR) development. Evidence of tyrosine nitration of cytosolic proteins as a consequence of NO accumulation has been provided by western blot analysis and immunolocalization in the sections of AR producing hypocotyl segments. Most abundant anti-nitrotyrosine labeling is evident in proteins ranging from 25–80 kDa. Tyrosine nitration of a particular protein (25 kDa) is completely absent in presence of NPA (which suppresses AR formation). Similar lack of tyrosine nitration of this protein is also evident in other conditions which do not allow AR differentiation. Immunofluorescent localization experiments have revealed that non-inductive treatments (such as PTIO) for AR develpoment from hypocotyl segments coincide with symplastic and apoplastic localization of tyrosine nitrated proteins in the xylem elements, in contrast with negligible (and mainly apoplastic) nitration of proteins in the interfascicular cells and phloem elements. Application of NPA does not affect tyrosine nitration of proteins even in the presence of an external source of NO (SNP). Tyrosine nitrated proteins are abundant around the nuclei in the actively dividing cells of the root primordium. Thus, NO-modulated rapid response to IAA treatment through differential distribution of tyrosine nitrated proteins is evident as an inherent aspect of the AR development. 相似文献

The reactive species peroxynitrite, formed via the near diffusion-limited reaction of nitric oxide and superoxide anion, is a potent oxidant that contributes to tissue damage in neurodegenerative disorders. Peroxynitrite readily nitrates tyrosine residues in proteins, producing a permanent modification that can be immunologically detected. We have previously demonstrated that in the nerve terminal, nitrotyrosine immunoreactivity is primarily associated with synaptophysin. Here we identify two other presynaptic proteins nitrated by peroxynitrite, Munc-18 and SNAP25, both of which are involved in sequential steps leading to vesicle exocytosis. To investigate whether peroxynitrite affects vesicle exocytosis, we used the fluorescent dye FM1-43 to label a recycling population of secretory vesicles within the synaptosomes. Bolus addition of peroxynitrite stimulated exocytosis and glutamate release. Notably, these effects were strongly reduced in the presence of NaHCO(3), indicating that peroxynitrite acts mainly intracellularly. Furthermore, peroxynitrite enhanced the formation of the sodium dodecyl sulfate-resistant SNARE complex in a dose-dependent manner (100-1000 microm) and induced the formation of 3-nitrotyrosine in proteins of SNARE complex. These data suggest that modification(s) of synaptic vesicle proteins induced by peroxynitrite may affect protein-protein interactions in the docking/fusion steps, thus promoting exocytosis, and that, under excessive production of superoxide and nitric oxide, neurons may up-regulate neuronal signaling. 相似文献

Nitrite is reduced to nitric oxide (NO) in the oral cavity. The NO generated can react with molecular oxygen producing reactive nitrogen species. In this study, reduction of nitrite to NO was observed in bacterial fractions of saliva and whole saliva. Formation of reactive nitrogen species from NO was detected by measuring the transformation of 4,5-diaminofluorescein (DAF-2) to triazolfluorescein (DAF-2T). The transformation was fast in bacterial fractions but slow in whole saliva. Salivary components such as ascorbate, glutathione, uric acid and thiocyanate inhibited the transformation of DAF-2 to DAF-2T in bacterial fractions without affecting nitrite-dependent NO production. The inhibition was deduced to be due to scavenging of reactive nitrogen species, which were formed from NO, by the above reagents. The transformation of DAF-2 to DAF-2T was faster in bacterial fractions and whole saliva which were prepared 1–4?h after tooth brushing than those prepared immediately after toothbrushing. Increase in the rate as a function of time after toothbrushing seemed to be due to the increase in population of bacteria which could reduce nitrite to NO. The results obtained in this study suggest that reactive nitrogen species derived from NO are continuously formed in the oral cavity and that the reactive nitrogen species are effectively scavenged by salivary redox components in saliva but the scavenging is not complete. 相似文献

Rett syndrome (RTT) is a pervasive developmental disorder, primarily affecting girls with a prevalence of 1 in every 10,000 births. A clear etiological factor present in more than 90% of classical RTT cases is the mutation of the gene encoding methyl-CpG-binding protein 2 (MECP2). Recent work from our group was able to shown a systemic oxidative stress (OxS) in these patients that correlates with the gravity of the clinical features.Using freshly isolated skin fibroblasts from RTT patients and healthy subjects, we have performed a two-dimensional gel electrophoresis in order to evidence the oxidative modifications of proteins with special focus on the formation of protein adducts with 4-hydroxynonenal (4-HNE PAs)—a major secondary product of lipid peroxidation— and Nitrotyrosine, a marker derived from the biochemical interaction of nitric oxide (NO) or nitric oxide-derived secondary products with reactive oxygen species (ROS). Then, oxidatively modified spots were identified by mass spectrometry, LC-ESI-CID-MS/MS.Our results showed that 15 protein spots presented 4-HNE PAs and/or nitrotyrosine adducts in fibroblasts proteome from RTT patients compared to healthy control cells. Post-translationally modified proteins were related to several functional categories, in particular to cytoskeleton structure and protein folding. In addition, clear upregulated expression of the inducible NO synthase (iNOS) with high nitrite levels were observed in RTT fibroblasts, justifying the increased nitrotyrosine protein modifications.The present work describes not only the proteomic profile in RTT fibroblasts, but also identifies the modified proteins by 4-HNE and nitrotyrosine. Of note, for the first time, it appears that a dysregulation of NO pathway can be associated to RTT pathophysiology. In conclusion, the evidence of a wide range of proteins able to forms adducts with 4-HNE, Nitrotyrosine or with both confirms the possible alteration of several aspects of cellular functions that well correlates to the complex clinical features of RTT patients. 相似文献

Nitric oxide (NO) is a diffusible, very reactive gas that is involved in the regulation of many processes in plants. Several enzymatic sources of NO production have been identified in recent years. Nitrate reductase (NR) is one of them and it has been shown that this well-known plant protein, apart from its role in nitrate reduction and assimilation, can also catalyse the reduction of nitrite to NO. This reaction can produce large amounts of NO, or at least more than is needed for signalling, as some escape of NO to the outside medium can be detected after NR activation. A role for NO and NR in stomata functioning in response to abscisic acid has also been proposed. The question that remains is whether this NR-derived NO is a signalling molecule or the mere product of an enzymatic side reaction like the products generated by the oxygenase activity of RuBisCO. 相似文献

Peroxynitrite (ONOO(-)), a reactive nitrogen species, is capable of nitrating tyrosine residue of proteins. Here we show in vitro evidence that plant phenolic compounds can also be nitrated by an ONOO(-)-independent mechanism. In the presence of NaNO(2), H(2)O(2), and horseradish peroxidase (HRP), monophenolic p-coumaric acid (p-CA, 4-hydroxycinnamic acid) was nitrated to form 4-hydroxy-3-nitrocinnamic acid. The reaction was completely inhibited by KCN, an inhibitor for HRP. The antioxidant ascorbate suppressed p-CA nitration and its suppression time depended strongly on ascorbate concentration. We conclude that nitrogen dioxide radical (NO(2)(radical)), but not ONOO(-), produced by a guaiacol peroxidase is the intermediate for phytophenolic nitration. 相似文献
