Characterization of the influence of nitric oxide donors on intestinal absorption of macromolecules.
To characterize the influence of nitric oxide (NO) donors on the intestinal absorption of macromolecules, the relationship between the release rate of NO from NO donors and their absorption-enhancing effects and the effects of several scavengers and generators on the absorption-enhancing effects of NO donor were investigated. The t1/2 values of the NO release rate from 3-(2-hydroxy-1-methylethyl-2-nitrosohydrazino)-1-propanamine (NOC5), 3-(2-hydroxy-1-methylethyl-2-nitrosohydrazino)-N-methyl-1-propanamine (NOC7) and N-ethyl-2-(1-ethyl-hydroxy-2-nitrosohydrazino)-ethanamine (NOC12) are 25, 5 and 100min, respectively. The absorption-enhancing effects of NO donors on the absorption of fluorescein isothiocyanate dextrans with an average molecular weight of 4400 (FD-4) are NOC5 > NOC7 > NOC12 in the colon. The lowest enhancing effect of NOC12 may be due to the slow rate of NO release. The enhancing effect of NOC7 rapidly disappeared compared with the effect of NOC5. The results raise the possibility that the difference between NOC5 and NOC7 on enhancing effect is related to the t1/2 of the NO release. The NOC7-induced enhancing effect was prevented by the co-administration of 2-(4-carboxyphenyl)-4,4,5,5-tetramethylimidazole-1-oxyl-3-oxide sodium salt (C-PTIO), an NO scavenger; tiron, an O2(-) scavenger; mannitol, an OH* scavenger, and deferoxamine, peroxynitrate scavenger. Pyrogallol, an O2(-) generator, potentiated the NOC7-induced enhancing effect. These results support a role for peroxynitrate, and possibly OH*, in the NO donor-induced intestinal enhancing effect.

Formation of guanidinosuccinic acid, a stable nitric oxide mimic, from argininosuccinic acid and nitric oxide-derived free radicals.
Guanidinosuccinic acid (GSA) is noted for its nitric oxide (NO) mimicking actions such as vasodilatation and activation of the N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor. We have reported that GSA is the product of argininosuccinate (ASA) and some reactive oxygen species, mainly the hydroxyl radical. We tested for GSA synthesis in the presence of NO donors. ASA (1 mM) was incubated with NOR-2, NOC-7 or 3-morpholinosydomine hydrochloride (SIN-1) at 37 degrees C. GSA was determined by HPLC using a cationic resin for separation and phenanthrenequinone as an indicator. Neither NOR-2 or NOC-7 formed GSA. SIN-1, on the other hand, generates NO and the superoxide anion which, in turn, generated peroxynitrite which was then converted to the hydroxyl radical. Incubation of ASA with SIN-1 leads, via this route, to GSA. When ASA was incubated with 1 mM SIN-1, the amount of GSA produced depended on the incubation time and the concentration of ASA. Among the tested SIN-1 concentrations, from 0.5 to 5 mM, GSA synthesis was maximum at 0.5 mM and decreased with increasing concentrations of SIN-1. Carboxy-PTIO, a NO scavenger, completely inhibited GSA synthesis. SOD, a superoxide scavenger, decreased GSA synthesis by 20%, and catalase inhibited GSA synthesis only by 12%; DMSO, a hydroxyl radical scavenger completely inhibited GSA synthesis in the presence of SIN-1. These data suggest that the hydroxyl radical derived from a combination of NO and the superoxide anion generates GSA, a stable NO mimic. Meanwhile, synthesis of GSA by NO produces reactive oxygen and activates the NMDA receptor that generates NO from GSA, suggesting a positive feed back mechanism.

Regulation of prostaglandin H2 synthase activity by nitrogen oxides.
Nitric oxide and its derivatives have been shown to both activate and inhibit prostaglandin H(2) synthase 1 (PGHS-1). We set out to determine the mechanisms by which different nitrogen oxide derivatives modulate PGHS-1 activity. To this end, we show that 3-morpholinosydnonimine hydrochloride (SIN-1), a compound capable of generating peroxynitrite, activates purified PGHS-1 and also stimulates PGE(2) production in arterial smooth muscle cells in the presence of exogenous arachidonic acid. The effect of SIN-1 in smooth muscle cells was abrogated by superoxide and peroxynitrite inhibitors, which supports the hypothesis that peroxynitrite is an activating species of PGHS-1. Indeed, authentic peroxynitrite also induced PGE(2) production in arachidonic acid-stimulated cells. In contrast, when cells were exposed to the nitric oxide-releasing compound 1-hydroxy-2-oxo-3-[(methylamino)propyl]-3-methyl-1-triazene (NOC-7), PGHS-1 enzyme activity was inhibited in the presence of exogenous arachidonic acid. Finally, in lipid-loaded smooth muscle cells, we demonstrate that SIN-1 stimulates arachidonic acid-induced PGE(2) production; albeit, the extent of activation is reduced compared to that under normal conditions. These results indicate that formation of peroxynitrite is a key intermediary step in PGHS-1 activation. However, other forms of NO(x)() inhibit PGHS-1. These results may have implications in the regulation of vascular function and tone in normal and atherosclerotic arteries.
