A redox‐based mechanism for nitric oxide‐induced inhibition of DNA synthesis in human vascular smooth muscle cells
@article{Bundy2000ARM, title={A redox‐based mechanism for nitric oxide‐induced inhibition of DNA synthesis in human vascular smooth muscle cells}, author={Ruth E. Bundy and N{\'a}ndor Marczin and Adrian H. Chester and Magdi H. Yacoub}, journal={British Journal of Pharmacology}, year={2000}, volume={129} }
The current study explored potential redox mechanisms of nitric oxide (NO)‐induced inhibition of DNA synthesis in cultured human and rat aortic smooth muscle cells. Exposure to S‐nitrosothiols, DETA‐NONOate and NO itself inhibited ongoing DNA synthesis and S phase progression in a concentration‐dependent manner, as measured by thymidine incorporation and flow cytometry. Inhibition by NO donors occurred by release of NO, as detected by chemiluminescence and judged by the effects of NO scavengers…

Results indicate that NO-induced inhibition of PKC isoforms is associated with S-nitrosylation-mediated disulfide formation of active site thiols in PKC-ζ as the disulfides reducing agent DTT and/or the thioredoxin enzyme system restore PKC -ζ catalytic activity.

Nitrovasodilators did not produce a detectable NO signal, and NO scavengers had no influence on its inhibition of DNA synthesis, suggesting that NO does not mediate the inhibitory action of hydroxyurea in the authors' system.

NO is the first endogenous substance to have been shown to inhibit mitogenesis beyond the restriction point in late G1 phase, suggesting that it plays a role in regulation of cells that have lost normal mechanisms of G1 growth control, such as the hyperproliferative smooth muscle cells noted in hypertension and restenosis.

Experiments in which NO was added to intact human cells and to aerobic solutions of DNA, RNA, guanine, or adenine produced a 40- to 50-fold increase in hypoxanthine and xanthine in cellular DNA, which are believed to account for the mutagenicity of nitric oxide toward bacteria and mammalian cells.

No gas and lysates of activated macrophages that generated comparable amounts of NO led to the same degree of inhibition of partially purified RR from L1210 mouse lymphoma cells, suggesting that cytostasis by activated Macrophages and by hydroxyurea has comparable mechanisms, including, but probably not limited to, inhibition of RR.
