Nitric oxide (NO) generated by inducible NO synthase (iNOS) is critical for defense against intracellular pathogens but may mediate inflammatory tissue damage. To elucidate the role of iNOS in neuroinflammation, infections with encephalitogenic Trypanosoma brucei parasites were compared in inos(-/-) and wild-type mice. Inos(-/-) mice showed enhanced brain invasion by parasites and T cells, and ...
Inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) is responsible for nitric oxide (NO) synthesis from l-arginine in response to inflammatory mediators. It is reported that iNOS is degraded mainly by the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway in RAW264.7 cells and human embryonic kidney (HEK) 293 cells. In this study, we showed that iNOS was ubiquitinated and degraded dependent on CHIP (COOH terminus of heat shock p...
Exposure of mesangial cells to superoxide, generated by the hypoxanthine/xanthine oxidase system or by the redox cycler 2,3-dimethoxy-1,4-naphthoquinone caused a concentration-dependent amplification of interleukin (IL)-1beta-stimulated nitrite production. The effect of superoxide was accompanied by an increase in inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) protein and iNOS mRNA levels. Incubation o...
Brains from subjects who have Alzheimer's disease (AD) express inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS). We tested the hypothesis that iNOS contributes to AD pathogenesis. Immunoreactive iNOS was detected in brains of mice with AD-like disease resulting from transgenic expression of mutant human beta-amyloid precursor protein (hAPP) and presenilin-1 (hPS1). We bred hAPP-, hPS1-double transgenic m...
Mice deficient in both inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) and interleukin (IL)-10 (iNOS(-/-)/IL-10(-/-)) were created to examine the role of iNOS in spontaneously developing intestinal inflammation. IL-10(-/-)/iNOS(-/-) mice were compared with IL-10(-/-) (iNOS(+/+)) littermates over 6 mo. RT-PCR, Western blot analysis, and immunohistochemistry were performed to measure iNOS message and prot...
Nitric Oxide (NO), produced by inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS), has been implicated in the pathogenesis of various biological and inflammatory disorders. Recent evidence suggests that aggresome formation is a physiologic stress response not limited to misfolded proteins. That stress response, termed "physiologic aggresome," is exemplified by aggresome formation of iNOS, an important host...
Previous studies have shown apolipoprotein E (apoE) recruitment to medial layers of carotid arteries after vascular injury in vivo and apoE activation of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) in smooth muscle cells in vitro. This investigation explored the relationship between medial apoE recruitment and iNOS activation in protection against neointimal hyperplasia. ApoE was present in both neo...
Most evidence indicates that nitric oxide plays a role in normal wound repair; however, involvement of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) has not been established. Experiments were carried out to determine the requirement for iNOS in closing excisional wounds. Wound closure was delayed by 31% in iNOS knockout mice compared with wild-type animals. An identical delay in wound closure was obse...
Potent and selective inhibitors of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) (EC ) were identified in an encoded combinatorial chemical library that blocked human iNOS dimerization, and thereby NO production. In a cell-based iNOS assay (A-172 astrocytoma cells) the inhibitors had low-nanomolar IC(50) values and thus were >1,000-fold more potent than the substrate-based direct iNOS inhibitors 1400W...
Adenosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate (cAMP) and purinergic P2y receptor agonists upregulate inducible nitric oxide (NO) synthase (iNOS) but inhibit Escherichia coli endotoxin lipopolysaccharide (LPS)- and cytokine-mediated upregulation of iNOS in cultured cells. We examined the effects of cAMP and P2y receptor agonists on the iNOS system in vivo. Intratracheal administration of dibutyryl-cAMP (...
