Abstract
Peroxynitrite, formed by nitric oxide (NO) and superoxide, can alter protein function by nitrating amino acids such as tyrosine, cysteine, trytophan, or methionine. Inducible nitric oxide synthase (Type 2 NOS or iNOS) converts arginine to citrulline, releasing NO. We hypothesized that peroxynitrite could function as a negative feedback modulator of NO production by nitration of iNOS. Confluent cultures of the murine lung epithelial cell line, LA-4 were stimulated with cytokines to express iNOS, peroxynitrite was added, and the flasks sealed. After 3 h, NO in the headspace above the culture was sampled. Peroxynitrite caused a concentration-dependent decrease in NO. Similar results were obtained when 3-morpholinosydnonimine (SIN-1), a peroxynitrite generator, was added to the flasks. PAPA-NONOate, the NO generator, did not affect the headspace NO. Nitration of the iNOS was confirmed by detection of 3-nitrotyrosine by Western blotting. These data suggest a mechanism for inhibition of NO synthesis at inflammatory sites where iNOS, NO, and superoxide would be expected.
