    • Abstract:
      Nitric oxide (NO) is a key factor in inflammation. Endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS), whose activity increases after stimulation with proinflammatory cytokines, produces NO in endothelium. NO activates two pathways: 1 ) soluble guanylate cyclase-protein kinase G and 2 ) S -nitrosylation (NO-induced modification of free-thiol cysteines in proteins). S -nitrosylation affects phosphorylation, localization, and protein interactions. NO is classically described as a negative regulator of leukocyte adhesion to endothelial cells. However, agonists activating NO production induce a fast leukocyte adhesion, which suggests that NO might positively regulate leukocyte adhesion. We tested the hypothesis that eNOS-induced NO promotes leukocyte adhesion through the S -nitrosylation pathway. We stimulated leukocyte adhesion to endothelium in vitro and in vivo using tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) as proinflammatory agonist. ICAM-1 changes were evaluated by immunofluorescence, subcellular fractionation, immunoprecipitation, and fluorescence recovery after photobleaching (FRAP). Protein kinase Cζ (PKCζ) activity and S -nitrosylation were evaluated by Western blot analysis and biotin switch method, respectively. TNF-α, at short times of stimulation, activated the eNOS S -nitrosylation pathway and caused leukocyte adhesion to endothelial cells in vivo and in vitro. TNF-α-induced NO led to changes in ICAM-1 at the cell surface, which are characteristic of clustering. TNF-α-induced NO also produced S -nitrosylation and phosphorylation of PKCζ, association of PKCζ with ICAM-1, and ICAM-1 phosphorylation. The inhibition of PKCζ blocked leukocyte adhesion induced by TNF-α. Mass spectrometry analysis of purified PKCζ identified cysteine 503 as the only S -nitrosylated residue in the kinase domain of the protein. Our results reveal a new eNOS S -nitrosylation-dependent mechanism that induces leukocyte adhesion and suggests that S -nitrosylation of PKCζ may be an important regulatory step in early leukocyte adhesion in inflammation. NEW & NOTEWORTHY Contrary to the well-established inhibitory role of NO in leukocyte adhesion, we demonstrate a positive role of nitric oxide in this process. We demonstrate that NO induced by eNOS after TNF-α treatment induces early leukocyte adhesion activating the S -nitrosylation pathway. Our data suggest that PKCζ S -nitrosylation may be a key step in this process.
