Nitric oxide inhibits enterocyte mitochondrial phospholipase D.

چکیده
Mitochondrial damage is one of the prominent features of cell death in oxidative stress and related pathological conditions. Alteration in membrane lipid composition may be responsible for the mitochondrial damage. In this study, we have shown that intestinal mitochondria contain an active phospholipase D (PLD) which is activated by oxidants, Ca2+ or polyamines and this results in degradation of phosphatidylethanolamine (PE) and formation of phosphatidic acid (PA). This PLD activity is inhibited by nitric oxide (NO) which prevents the lipid alteration in mitochondria when exposed to these agents. This can be reversed by the NO scavenger, haemoglobin. This suggests that alteration of mitochondrial membrane lipid composition by activation of PLD in certain pathological condition such as oxidative stress may be prevented by the simultaneous presence of nitric oxide.

The nitric oxide signaling pathway inhibits intracellular calcium release to prevent neurodevelopmental alcohol toxicity
In the context of fetal alcohol spectrum disorders, we investigated how the nitric oxide (NO) signaling pathway influences intracellular calcium (Ca) to mediate alcohol resistance, using a primary cell culture model of cerebellar granule neurons (CGN). Alcohol during fetal brain development triggers abnormally high apoptotic cell death in vulnerable neuronal populations, culminating in serious ...
متن کاملNitric oxide inhibits enterocyte migration through activation of RhoA-GTPase in a SHP-2-dependent manner.
Diseases of intestinal inflammation like necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) are associated with impaired epithelial barrier integrity and the sustained release of intestinal nitric oxide (NO). NO modifies the cytoskeletal regulator RhoA-GTPase, suggesting that NO could affect barrier healing by inhibiting intestinal restitution. We now hypothesize that NO inhibits enterocyte migration through RhoA...
متن کاملAttenuation of intestinal ischemia/reperfusion injury with sodium nitroprusside: studies on mitochondrial function and lipid changes.
Reactive oxygen species have been implicated in cellular injury during ischemia/reperfusion (I/R). Mitochondria are one of the main targets of oxygen free radicals and damage to this organelle leads to cell death. Reports suggest that nitric oxide (NO) may offer protection from damage during I/R. This study has looked at the functional changes and lipid alteration to mitochondria during intesti...
متن کاملPeroxynitrite inhibits enterocyte proliferation and modulates Src kinase activity in vitro.
Overproduction of nitric oxide (NO) or its toxic metabolite, peroxynitrite (ONOO-), after endotoxemia promotes gut barrier failure, in part, by inducing enterocyte apoptosis. We hypothesized that ONOO- may also inhibit enterocyte proliferation by disrupting the Src tyrosine kinase signaling pathway, thereby blunting repair of the damaged mucosa. We examined the effect of ONOO- on enterocyte pro...
متن کاملSphingosine 1-phosphate activates Weibel-Palade body exocytosis.
Sphingosine 1-phosphate (S1P) not only regulates angiogenesis, vascular permeability and vascular tone, but it also promotes vascular inflammation. However, the molecular basis for the proinflammatory effects of S1P is not understood. We now show that S1P activates endothelial cell exocytosis of Weibel-Palade bodies, releasing vasoactive substances capable of causing vascular thrombosis and inf...
