Peroxynitrite generated in arteries from superoxide and NO may damage their function. Here we compare the effects of peroxynitrite and peroxynitrite/NO generating agents SIN-1 (3-morpholinosydnonimine hydrochloride), SNAP (S-nitroso-N-acetylypenicillamine), SNP (sodium nitroprusside) and NONOate (Spermine NONOate) on pig coronary artery. De-endoethelialized artery rings were pretreated with these agents and then washed before examining their contractility. The pretreatment with all the agents (200 µM) results in a decrease in the force of contraction in response to the sarco/endoplasmic Ca2+ pump (SERCA) inhibitor cyclopiazonic acid (CPA): SNAP > NONOate
peroxynitrite
SIN-1 > SNAP. Pretreatment with SNAP, NONOate or SIN-1 also inhibits the force of contraction produced with 30 mM KCl, with SNAP being the most potent. Including catalase plus superoxide dismutase during the preincubation has no effect. Including an NO-scavenger (2-(4-carboxyphenyl)-4,4,5, 5-tetramethylimidazoline-1-oxyl-3-oxide) or a guanylate cyclase inhibitor (1H-[1,2,4]Oxadiazolo[4,3-a]quinoxalin-1-one) partially protects against SNAP. Pretreatment of cultured cells with peroxynitrite but not with SNAP inhibits the Ca2+ transients produced in response to CPA. Pretreating isolated membrane vesicles with peroxynitrite inhibits the Ca2+ uptake due to the SERCA pump, with all the other agents being less effective. Thus peroxynitrite and NO both inhibit the CPA induced contractions in de-endothelialized artery rings - peroxynitrite by damage to the SERCA pump and NO possibly by a step downstream from the increase in cytosolic Ca2+.
