Role of nitric oxide in mediation of macrophage cytotoxicity and apoptosis

Cancer Metastasis Reviews
J E Albina, J S Reichner

Abstract

Macrophages can recognize and eliminate tumor cells. To this effect, these cells use a variety of cytotoxic effectors. Recent work has paid particular attention to nitric oxide (NO) and its metabolic by-products in mediating macrophage tumor cytotoxicity. Moreover, work from this and other laboratories have indicated that macrophage-dependent, NO mediated tumor cell death meets the morphologic and molecular criteria that define apoptotic cell death. This review will initially discuss the characteristics of macrophage tumor cytotoxicity and the potential mechanisms by which NO can induce apoptosis in tumor cells. In addition, observations of spontaneous and acquired resistance to NO will be analyzed. Lastly, the relevance of results obtained using animal cells to the biology of the human macrophage will be considered.

Cancer Metabolism

In order for cancer cells to maintain rapid, uncontrolled cell proliferation, they must acquire a source of energy. Cancer cells acquire metabolic energy from their surrounding environment and utilize the host cell nutrients to do so. Here is the latest research on cancer metabolism.

Apoptosis in Cancer

Apoptosis is an important mechanism in cancer. By evading apoptosis, tumors can continue to grow without regulation and metastasize systemically. Many therapies are evaluating the use of pro-apoptotic activation to eliminate cancer growth. Here is the latest research on apoptosis in cancer.

Apoptosis

Apoptosis is a specific process that leads to programmed cell death through the activation of an evolutionary conserved intracellular pathway leading to pathognomic cellular changes distinct from cellular necrosis
