General description
NO, produced by nitric oxide synthases (NOS), is a critical signaling molecule involved in many physiological processes including muscle contraction, vasodilation, neuronal transmission, and immune responses. Some of these effects are mediated through reaction with and activation of guanylate cyclase (GC), resulting in increased cGMP production. With a half-life of seconds, NO readily diffuses through the cytosol and cell membrane, allowing it to act inside or adjacent to the cell in which it was produced. Nitric oxide (NO) is an inorganic, gaseous free radical that carries a variety of messages between cells. Vasorelaxation, neurotransmission and cytotoxicity can all be potentiated through cellular response to NO. NO production is mediated by members of the nitric oxide synthase (NOS) family. NOS catalyzes the oxidization of L-arginine to produce L-citrulline and NO. Two constitutive isoforms, brain or neuronal NOS (b or nNOS, type I) & endothelial cell NOS (eNOS, type III), and one inducible isoform (iNOS, type II), have been cloned. Cytokines such as interferon-gamma (IFN), tumor necrosis factor (TNF), interleukin-1 and -2, and lipopolysaccarides (LPS) cause an increase in iNOS mRNA, protein, and activity levels. Protein kinase C-stimulating agents exhibit the same effect on iNOS activity. Human iNOS is regulated by calcium/calmodulin (in contrast with mouse NOS2).
