Title Cu,Zn-superoxide dismutase-dependent apoptosis induced by nitric oxide in neuronal cells.
Abstract Nitric oxide (NO) challenge to human neuroblastoma cells (SH-SY5Y) ultimately results in apoptosis. Tumor suppressor protein p53 and cell cycle inhibitor p21 accumulate as an early sign of S-nitrosoglutathione-mediated toxicity. Cytochrome c release from mitochondria and caspase 3 activation also occurred. Cells transfected with either wild type (WT) or mutant (G93A) Cu, Zn-superoxide dismutase (Cu,Zn-SOD) produced comparable amounts of nitrite/nitrate but showed different degree of apoptosis. G93A cells were the most affected and WT cells the most protected; however, Cu, Zn-SOD content of these two cell lines was 2-fold the SH-SY5Y cells under both resting and treated conditions. We linked decreased susceptibility of the WT cells to higher and more stable Bcl-2 and decreased reactive oxygen species. Conversely, we linked G93A susceptibility to increased reactive oxygen species production since simultaneous administration of S-nitrosoglutathione and copper chelators protects from apoptosis. Furthermore, G93A cells showed a significant decrease of Bcl-2 expression and, as target of NO-derived radicals, showed lower cytochrome c oxidase activity. These results demonstrate that resistance to NO-mediated apoptosis is strictly related to the level and integrity of Cu,Zn-SOD and that the balance between reactive nitrogen and reactive oxygen species regulates neuroblastoma apoptosis. via dei Vestini, 66100 Chieti, Italy.

19986CYCScytochrome c, somaticcytochrome c1.0nuclear apoptosis is preceded by the disruption of the mitochondrial transmembrane potential which in turn can facilitate the release of pro apoptotic proteins such as cytochrome c through the opening of the mitochondrial permeability transition pore 54 .
19986CYCScytochrome c, somaticcytochrome c1.0in a previous report regarding another cell model system undergoing apoptosis 56 we demonstrated that cytochrome c release from mitochondria followed oxidative stress consequent to glutathione depletion.
19986CYCScytochrome c, somaticcytochrome c1.0furthermore this phenomenon could be observed in healthy cells as well suggesting that cytochrome c release is part of a more general mechanism related to redox unbalance.
19986CYCScytochrome c, somaticcytochrome c1.0in contrast to this hypothesis in the present report gsno treatment led to cytochrome c release with the maintenance of high intracellular glutathione concentration.
19986CYCScytochrome c, somaticcytochrome c1.0moreover in the g93a cells a small level of released cytochrome c was also detected in the untreated cells indicating that these cells in culture may spontaneously die by apoptosis.
19986CYCScytochrome c, somaticcytochrome c1.0taken together these results point to a mechanism for cytochrome c release different from that related to glutathione depletion.

992BCL2L1BCL2-like 1bcl xl1.0it involves the translocation of bid or bax from cytosol to mitochondria where they may possibly form a pore as shown for the related protein bcl xl 58 .
990BCL2B-cell CLL/lymphoma 2bcl 21.0in our experiments bcl 2 was down regulated by the gsno treatment in sh sy5y cells whereas the resistance of wt cells to apoptosis was associated with a higher level of this protein in the treated cells.
990BCL2B-cell CLL/lymphoma 2bcl 21.0since they were the most prone to no induced apoptosis we propose a causative role for bcl 2 in the increased susceptibility of g93a cells to apoptosis.
990BCL2B-cell CLL/lymphoma 2bcl 21.0it has been suggested that the antiapoptotic effects of bcl 2 be at least in part due to its antioxidant activity 59 .
990BCL2B-cell CLL/lymphoma 2bcl 21.0t known it is established that the cytosolic steady state of reactive oxygen species which are potentially threatening species and modulators of physiological signal transduction 60 is increased when bcl 2 is down regulated.
