Role of calcium and calmodulin in flow-induced nitric oxide production in endothelial cells

M. J. Kuchan and J. A. Frangos
Department of Chemical Engineering, Pennsylvania State University, University Park 16802.

These experiments demonstrate that exposure of cultured endothelial cells (EC) to well-defined laminar fluid flow results in an elevated rate of NO production. NO production was monitored by release of NOx (NO2- + NO3(2-) and by cellular guanosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate (cGMP) concentration. NO synthase (NOS) inhibitor blocked the flow-mediated stimulation of both NOx and cGMP, indicating that both measurements reflect NO production. Exposure to laminar flow increased NO release in a biphasic manner, with an initial rapid production consequent to the onset of flow followed by a less rapid, sustained production. A similar rapid increase in NO production resulted from an increase in flow above a preexisting level. The rapid initial production of NO was not dependent on shear stress within a physiological range (6-25 dyn/cm2) but may be dependent on the rate of change in shear stress. The sustained release of NO was dependent on physiological levels of shear stress. The calcium (Ca2+) or calmodulin (CaM) dependence of the initial and sustained production of NO was compared with bradykinin (BK)-mediated NO production. Both BK and the initial production were inhibited by Ca2+ and CaM antagonists. In contrast, the sustained shear stress-mediated NO production was not affected, despite the continued functional presence of the antagonists. Dexamethasone had no effect on either the initial or the sustained shear stress-mediated NO production. An inducible NOS does not, therefore, explain the apparent Ca2+/CaM independence of the sustained shear stress-mediated NO production.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
