Exogenous NO triggers preconditioning via a cGMP- and mitoKATP-dependent mechanism.
Exogenous nitric oxide (NO) triggers a preconditioning-like effect in heart via a pathway that is dependent on reactive oxygen species. This study examined the signaling pathway by which the NO donor S-nitroso-N-acetylpenicillamine (SNAP, 2 microM) triggers its anti-infarct effect. Isolated rabbit hearts experienced 30 min of regional ischemia and 120 min of subsequent reperfusion. Infarct size...
متن کاملBradykinin induces mitochondrial ROS generation via NO, cGMP, PKG, and mitoKATP channel opening and leads to cardioprotection.
Bradykinin (BK) mimics ischemic preconditioning by generating reactive oxygen species (ROS). To identify intermediate steps that lead to ROS generation, rabbit cardiomyocytes were incubated in reduced MitoTracker Red stain, which becomes fluorescent after exposure to ROS. Fluorescence intensity in treated cells was expressed as a percentage of that in paired, untreated cells. BK (500 nM) caused...
متن کاملHydrogen sulfide triggers late-phase preconditioning in postischemic small intestine by an NO- and p38 MAPK-dependent mechanism.
Hydrogen sulfide (H(2)S) is one of three endogenous gases, along with carbon monoxide (CO) and nitric oxide (NO), that exert a variety of important vascular actions in vivo. Although it has been demonstrated that CO or NO can trigger the development of a preconditioned phenotype in postischemic tissues, it is unclear whether H(2)S may also induce protection in organs subsequently exposed to isc...
متن کاملNO/cGMP-dependent modulation of synaptic transmission.
Nitric oxide (NO) is a multifunctional messenger in the CNS that can signal both in antero- and retrograde directions across synapses. Many effects of NO are mediated through its canonical receptor, the soluble guanylyl cyclase, and the second messenger cyclic guanosine-3',5'-monophosphate (cGMP). An increase of cGMP can also arise independently of NO via activation of membrane-bound particulat...
متن کاملMechanisms of NO/cGMP-dependent vasorelaxation.
Both cGMP-dependent and -independent mechanisms have been implicated in the regulation of vascular tone by NO. We analyzed acetylcholine (ACh)- and NO-induced relaxation in pressurized small arteries and aortic rings from wild-type (wt) and cGMP kinase I-deficient (cGKI(-/-)) mice. Low concentrations of NO and ACh decreased the spontaneous myogenic tone in wt but not in cGKI(-/-) arteries. Howe...
