Abstract
Previous work from our group stated that nitric oxide (NO), via cytokines, induces apoptosis in chromaffin cells by a mechanism involving iNOS, nNOS, and NF-κB. In this paper the involvement of glutamate as a possible intracellular trigger of neurosecretion and NO-mediated apoptosis has been evaluated. We show that chromaffin cells express different ionotropic and metabotropic glutamate receptors, this exerting different effects on the regulation of basal and glutamate-induced catecholamine secretion, via NO/cGMP. In addition, we studied the effects of endogenously generated NO, both basal and glutamate-stimulated, on apoptosis of chromaffin cells. Our results show that glutamate agonists are able to induce cell death and apoptosis in bovine chromaffin cells, parallel to an increase in NO production. Such effects were reversed by NOS inhibitors and glutamate receptor antagonists. Under basal conditions, iNOS inhibitors did not have any effect on apoptosis, whereas nNOS inhibitors induced apoptosis, indicating a neuroprotective effect of constitutive nNOS-generated NO. In contrast, glutamate-induced apoptosis was strongly reversed by nNOS inhibitors and weakly by iNOS inhibitors, thus indicating nNOS involvement in glutamate-mediated apoptosis. These results were confirmed by the fact that nNOS expression, but not iNOS, is specifically activated by glutamate. Finally, our results suggest the participation of PKG, PKA, PKC, and MAPK pathways in glutamate-mediated nNOS activation in chromaffin cells and point out the involvement of both PKA and PKC signaling pathways in the apoptotic effect of glutamate.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Glutamate receptors, which play a major role in the physiology and pathology of central nervous system gray matter, are also involved in the pathophysiology of white matter. However, the cellular and molecular mechanisms responsible for excitotoxic damage to white matter elements are not fully understood. We explored the roles of AMPA and GluR5 kainate receptors in axonal Ca(2+) deregulation. METHODS Dorsal column axons were loaded with a Ca(2+) indicator and imaged in vitro using confocal microscopy. RESULTS Both AMPA and a GluR5 kainate receptor agonist increased intraaxonal Ca(2+) in myelinated rat dorsal column fibers. These responses were inhibited by selective antagonists of these receptors. The GluR5-mediated Ca(2+) increase was mediated by both canonical (ie, ionotropic) and noncanonical (metabotropic) signaling, dependent on a pertussis toxin-sensitive G protein/phospholipase C-dependent pathway, promoting Ca(2+) release from inositol triphosphate-dependent stores. In addition, the GluR5 response was reduced by intraaxonal NO scavengers. In contrast, GluR4 AMPA receptors operated via Ca(2+)-induced Ca(2+) release, dependent on ryanodine receptors, and unaffected by NO scavengers. Neither pathway depended on L-type Ca(2+) channels, in contrast with GluR6 kainate receptor action.1 Immunohistochemistry confirmed the presence of GluR4 and GluR5 clustered at the surface of myelinated axons; GluR5 coimmunoprecipitated with nNOS and often colocalized with neuronal nitric oxide synthase clusters on the internodal axon. INTERPRETATION Central myelinated axons express functional AMPA and GluR5 kainate receptors, and can directly respond to glutamate receptor agonists. These glutamate receptor-dependent signaling pathways promote an increase in intraaxonal Ca(2+) levels potentially contributing to axonal degeneration.

Abstract
Adrenal chromaffin cells synthesize and secrete catecholamines and neuropeptides that may regulate hormonal and paracrine signaling in stress and also during inflammation. The aim of our work was to study the role of the cytokine interleukin-1beta (IL-1beta) on catecholamine release and synthesis from primary cell cultures of human adrenal chromaffin cells. The effect of IL-1beta on neuropeptide Y (NPY) release and the intracellular pathways involved in catecholamine release evoked by IL-1beta and NPY were also investigated. We observed that IL-1beta increases the release of NPY, norepinephrine (NE), and epinephrine (EP) from human chromaffin cells. Moreover, the immunoneutralization of released NPY inhibits catecholamine release evoked by IL-1beta. Moreover, IL-1beta regulates catecholamine synthesis as the inhibition of tyrosine hydroxylase decreases IL-1beta-evoked catecholamine release and the cytokine induces tyrosine hydroxylase Ser40 phosphorylation. Moreover, IL-1beta induces catecholamine release by a mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK)-dependent mechanism, and by nitric oxide synthase activation. Furthermore, MAPK, protein kinase C (PKC), protein kinase A (PKA), and nitric oxide (NO) production are involved in catecholamine release evoked by NPY. Using human chromaffin cells, our data suggest that IL-1beta, NPY, and nitric oxide (NO) may contribute to a regulatory loop between the immune and the adrenal systems, and this is relevant in pathological conditions such as infection, trauma, stress, or in hypertension.

Abstract
Reactive nitrogen species (RNS) are various nitric oxide-derived compounds, including nitroxyl anion, nitrosonium cation, higher oxides of nitrogen, S-nitrosothiols, and dinitrosyl iron complexes. RNS have been recognized as playing a crucial role in the physiologic regulation of many, if not all, living cells, such as smooth muscle cells, cardiomyocytes, platelets, and nervous and juxtaglomerular cells. They possess pleiotropic properties on cellular targets after both posttranslational modifications and interactions with reactive oxygen species. Elevated levels of RNS have been implicated in cell injury and death by inducing nitrosative stress. The aim of this comprehensive review is to address the mechanisms of formation and removal of RNS, highlighting their potential cellular targets: lipids, DNA, and proteins. The specific importance of RNS and their paradoxic effects, depending on their local concentration under physiologic conditions, is underscored. An increasing number of compounds that modulate RNS processing or targets are being identified. Such compounds are now undergoing preclinical and clinical evaluations in the treatment of pathologies associated with RNS-induced cellular damage. Future research should help to elucidate the involvement of RNS in the therapeutic effect of drugs used to treat neurodegenerative, cardiovascular, metabolic, and inflammatory diseases and cancer.

Abstract
We studied lipid metabolism and the antioxidant defense system in plasma and liver of rats fed diets supplemented with L(omega)-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester (L-NAME), isosorbide dinitrate (DIS), L-arginine (Arg), or the associations of these drugs. Liver hydroperoxide and thiobarbituric-acid-reactive substance (TBARS) levels were decreased by Arg and increased by L-NAME or DIS treatments. Oxidized glutathione and conjugated dienes were increased by DIS. Nitrate + nitrite levels and serum calcium ([Ca(++)]) were incremented by Arg or DIS and reduced by L-NAME. Superoxide dismutase and catalase activities decreased under Arg treatment, while L-NAME or DIS caused stimulation. Liver high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol was increased by DIS or NAME (alone or associated with Arg). Free fatty acids and neutral and polar lipids were increased by Arg, L: -NAME, and DIS. However, predominating phospholipid synthesis increased the neutral/polar ratio. Decreased levels of nitric oxide (NO) (low [Ca(++)]) was directly associated with increased fatty acid synthetase, decreased phospholipase A(2), carnitine-palmitoyl transferase, and fatty acid desaturase activities. Raised NO (high [Ca(++)]) inversely correlated with increased phospholipase-A(2) and acyl-coenzyme A (CoA) synthetase and decreased fatty acid synthetase and beta-oxidation rate. Arg or DIS produced changes that were partially reverted by association with L-NAME. Based on these observations, prolonged therapeutical approaches using drugs that modify NO availability should be carefully considered.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Interactions between the NO system and the cyclooxygenase systems may be important in cardiovascular regulation. Here we measured the effects of acute cyclooxygenase-2 inhibition (with parecoxib), alone and in combination with NOS inhibition (with NG-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester (L-NAME)), on resting cardiovascular variables and on responses to the glucagon-like peptide 1 agonist, exendin-4, which causes regionally-selective vasoconstriction and vasodilatation. EXPERIMENTAL APPROACH Rats were instrumented with flow probes and intravascular catheters to measure regional haemodynamics in the conscious, freely moving state. L-NAME was administered as a primed infusion 180 min after administration of parecoxib or vehicle, and exendin-4 was given 60 min after the onset of L-NAME infusion. KEY RESULTS Parecoxib had no effect on resting cardiovascular variables or on responses to L-NAME. Exendin-4 caused a pressor response accompanied by tachycardia, mesenteric vasoconstriction and hindquarters vasodilatation. Parecoxib did not affect haemodynamic responses to exendin-4, but L-NAME inhibited its hindquarters vasodilator and tachycardic effects. When combined, L-NAME and parecoxib almost abolished the hindquarters vasodilatation while enhancing the pressor response. CONCLUSIONS AND IMPLICATIONS Cyclooxygenase-2-derived products do not affect basal haemodynamic status in conscious normotensive rats, or influence the NO system acutely. The inhibitory effects of L-NAME on the hindquarters vasodilator and tachycardic effects of exendin-4 are consistent with a previous study that showed those events to be beta-adrenoceptor mediated. The additional effect of parecoxib on responses to exendin-4 in the presence of L-NAME, is consistent with other evidence for enhanced involvement of vasodilator prostanoids when NO production is reduced.

Abstract
In this study, we investigated a role for nitric oxide (NO) in mediating the elevation of the free cytosolic Ca(2+) concentration ([Ca(2+)](cyt)) in plants using Nicotiana plumbaginifolia cells expressing the Ca(2+) reporter apoaequorin. Hyperosmotic stress induced a fast increase of [Ca(2+)](cyt) which was strongly reduced by pretreating cell suspensions with the NO scavenger carboxy PTIO, indicating that NO mediates [Ca(2+)](cyt) changes in plant cells challenged by abiotic stress. Accordingly, treatment of transgenic N. plumbaginifolia cells with the NO donor diethylamine NONOate was followed by a transient increase of [Ca(2+)](cyt) sensitive to plasma membrane Ca(2+) channel inhibitors and antagonist of cyclic ADP ribose. We provided evidence that NO might activate plasma membrane Ca(2+) channels by inducing a rapid and transient plasma membrane depolarization. Furthermore, NO-induced elevation of [Ca(2+)](cyt) was suppressed by the kinase inhibitor staurosporine, suggesting that NO enhances [Ca(2+)](cyt) by promoting phosphorylation-dependent events. This result was further supported by the demonstration that the NO donor induced the activation of a 42-kDa protein kinase which belongs to SnRK2 families and corresponds to Nicotiana tabacum osmotic-stress-activated protein kinase (NtOSAK). Interestingly, NtOSAK was activated in response to hyperosmotic stress through a NO-dependent process, supporting the hypothesis that NO also promotes protein kinase activation during physiological processes.

Abstract
Treatment of chromaffin cells with nitric oxide (NO) donors (SNP and SNAP) and peroxynitrite produces a time- and dose-dependent necrotic and apoptotic cell death. Necrotic cell death was characterized by both an increase in lactate dehydrogenase and ATP release and changes in nuclei and cell morphology (as seen with fluorescence microscopy analysis with propidium iodide and Hoechst 33342). Apoptotic cell death was characterized by nuclear fragmentation and presence of apoptotic cell bodies, by a decrease in DNA content, and by an increase in DNA fragmentation. Treatment of chromaffin cells with lipopolysaccharide (LPS) or cytokines (interferon-gamma, tumor necrosis factor-alpha) resulted only in apoptotic cell death. Apoptotic effects of NO-inducing compounds were specifically reversed, depending on the stimuli, by the NO scavenger carboxy-PTIO (CPTio) or by the NOS inhibitors L-NMA and thiocitrulline. NO-induced apoptotic death in chromaffin cells was concomitant to a cell cycle arrest in G0G1 phase and a decrease in the number of chromaffin cells in the G2M and S phases of cell cycle. All NO-producing compounds were able to induce activation of caspase 3 and cytochrome c release, and specific inhibitors of caspase 3 and 9, such as Ac-DEVD-CHO (CPP32) and Ac-Z-LEHD-FMK, respectively, prevented NO-induced apoptosis in chromaffin cells. These results suggest that chromaffin cells could be good models for investigating the molecular basis of degeneration in diseases showing death of catecholaminergic neurons, phenomenon in which NO plays an important role.
