海人酸致痫动物模型脑内一氧化氮,一氧化氮合酶的变化

目的探讨一氧化氮（ＮＯ）、一氧化氮合酶（ＮＯＳ）在癫痫发生中的作用及ＮＯＳ抑制剂的作用。方法采用海人酸致痫大鼠模型并应用ＮＯＳ抑制剂Ｌ－硝基精氨酸甲酯（Ｌ－ＮＡＭＥ）,分别在致痫后３０分钟、６０分钟取海马组织,匀浆后测定ＮＯ及ＮＯＳ水平。结果致痫３０分钟后海马ＮＯ含量显著升高,至６０分钟恢复正常;ＮＯＳ活性水平增高＞５０％;Ｌ－ＮＡＭＥ明显抑制大鼠的痫性发作,应用ＮＯＳ抑制剂组大鼠海马ＮＯ、ＮＯＳ含量明显下降。结论癫痫发作后脑内ＮＯ、ＮＯＳ活性增强,ＮＯＳ抑制剂通过抑制酶活性使ＮＯ生成降低,并完全抑制痫性发作。ＮＯＳ活性受抑制＞４８％即可产生明显效果。提示ＮＯ可能有内源性致痫作用。

重症肌无力患者IgG对大鼠脑内NOS不同时间表达的影响

目的观察重症肌无力(myasthenia gravis,MG)患者IgG(AchRab)对大鼠脑内一氧化氮合酶(NOS)表达的影响,探讨NOS在MG中造成中枢神经系统损害的机制.方法将AchRab IgG或健康人的IgG注入大鼠侧脑室,1次/d,连续4次.免疫组化方法观察不同时间点大鼠脑皮质、海马及杏仁核神经元型一氧化氮合酶(nNOS)和诱导型一氧化氮合酶(iNOS)的表达变化.结果侧脑室注射后1周实验组大鼠皮质、海马神经元nNOS表达量明显减少,后2周实验组皮质、海马神经元nNOS表达下降更为明显,同时杏仁核神经元nNOS表达量也减少;实验组及对照组脑内细胞均未见iNOS表达.结论AchRab侧脑室内注射可引起大鼠皮质、海马及杏仁核神经元nNOS表达量减少,且2周内这种减少效应随时间延长而增强,但未能诱导脑内细胞iNOS表达,提示AchRab尚可通过抑制大鼠中枢神经系统nNOS表达,降低脑内正常的一氧化氮浓度,减弱一氧化氮对脑组织的保护作用,增加神经元的易损性.

目的 探讨血浆超氧化物歧化酶(SOD)、一氧化氮(NO)及NO合酶(NOS)的变化与抗精神病药所敛的迟发性运动障碍(TD)的关系。方法 对42例长期使用抗精神病药治疗伴有TD的男性精神分裂症患者的血浆锰SOD(MnSOD)、铜-锌SOD(CuZnSOD)、NO及NOS的活性进行测定,以59例不伴有TD男性精神分裂症患者和50例健康男性作对照组,使用异常不自主运动量表(AIMS)进行临床评估。结果 TD组MnSOD、CuZnSOD和NO分别高于非TD组(P<0.05)或正常对照组(P<0.05),TD组NOS明显低于正常对照组(P<0.05)、略高于非TD组(p<0.05)。TD组MnSOD浓度越高则TD的症状越严重、NOS则相反(P<0.01),且在TD组MnSOD与NO呈显著的负相关(p<0.05)、在非TD组或正常对照组却呈正相关(前者P<0.01)。分层后发现TD组MnSOD浓度在NO较低时显著高于非TD组(P<0.01),而在NO浓度较高时则略低于非TD组(P>0.05)。结论 抗精神病药所致的TD,可能与患者血浆SOD尤其是MnSOD活性增高以及血浆NO浓度升高密切相关,两者可能来源于不同病理过程,但均提示自由基活动异常。     

Influence of nitric oxide synthase inhibition on the development of rapid tolerance to ethanol

We recently reported that the nitric oxide (NO) synthase inhibitor L-nitroarginine (L-NA) blocks the development of rapid tolerance to the motor incoordinating effect of ethanol in the tilt-plane test. To clarify the mechanism of L-NA blockade of tolerance, four additional experiments were carried out using the same test. The first demonstrated that L-NA prevented the development of rapid tolerance to ethanol when injected prior to ethanol either on both Days 1 and 2 or only on Day 1. In the second experiment, tolerance was blocked only when L-NA was injected before but not after behavioral testing on Day 1. In the third, L-NA blocked the enhancement of rapid tolerance to ethanol induced by D-cycloserins (CS), an agonist at the N-methyl- -separtate (NMDA) receptor. In the last experiment, L-NA pretreatment did not influence blood ethanol disappearance curves on Day 1, or ethanol concentrations in brain, tail blood or decapitated trunk blood on Day 2. These data argue against statedependent learning as the basis of the L-NA effect, and confirm and extend our previous observation that NO plays a role in the development of rapid tolerance to ethanol.

Neuronal and inducible nitric oxide synthase immunoreactivity following serotonin depletion

Serotonin (5HT) modulates the development and plasticity of its innervation areas in the central nervous system (CNS). Astrocytic 5HT(1A) receptors are involved in the plastic phenomena by releasing the astroglial-derived neurotrophic factor S-100beta. Several facts have demonstrated that nitric oxide (NO) and the nitric oxide synthase enzyme (NOS) may also be involved in this neuroglial interaction: (i) NO, S-100beta and 5HT are involved in CNS plasticity; (ii) micromolar S-100beta concentration stimulates inducible-NOS (iNOS) expression; (iii) neuronal NOS (nNOS) immunoreactive neurons are functionally and morphologically related to the serotoninergic neurons; (iv) monoamines level, including 5HT, can be modulated by NO release. We have already shown that 5HT depletion increases astroglial S-100beta immunoreactivity, induces neuronal cytoskeletal alterations and produces an astroglial reaction, while once 5HT level is recovered, a sprouting phenomenon occurs [Brain Res. 883 (2000) 1-14]. To further characterize the relationship among nNOS, iNOS and 5HT we have analyzed nNOS and iNOS expression in the CNS after 5HT depletion induced by parachlorophenylalanine (PCPA) treatment. Studies were performed immediately after ending the PCPA treatment and during a recovery period of 35 days. Areas densely innervated by 5HT fibers were studied by means of nNOS and iNOS immunoreactivity as well as NADPH diaphorase (NADPHd) staining. All parameters were quantified by computer-assisted image analysis. Increased nNOS immunoreactivity in striatum and hippocampus as well as increased NADPHd reactivity in the striatum, hippocampus and parietal cortex were found after PCPA treatment. The iNOS immunoreactivity in the corpus callosum increased 14 and 35 days after the end of PCPA treatment. These findings showed that nNOS immunoreactivity and NADPHd activity increased immediately after 5HT depletion evidencing a close functional interaction between nitrergic and serotoninergic systems. However, iNOS immunoreactivity increased when 5HT levels were normalized, which could indicate one of the biological responses to S-100beta release.     

Effects of deltamethrin on nitric oxide synthase and poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase in rat brain

The effects of deltamethrin on the activities of nitric oxide synthase (NOS) and poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) and the protein expression of neuronal NOS (nNOS) and PARP in rat brain were investigated in the present study. The activity of NOS was significantly increased in cortex and hippocampus at 5 h after deltamethrin treatment, and maintained at an increased level at 24 h. The activity of PARP was also elevated at the same time points in the same brain regions of treated rats. By immunohistochemical analysis, it was demonstrated that the nNOS-immunoreactive cells were markedly increased at 24 h after treatment in the cortex and hippocampus, whereas few nNOS-immunoreactive cells were observed in the same brain regions of control and treated rats at 5 h after treatment. The immunoreactivity for PARP was also increased in the same brain regions, showing the similar time course of the induction of nNOS by deltamethrin. These results indicate that deltamethrin increases the activities of NOS and PARP and initiates the protein expression of nNOS and PARP, suggesting that NOS and PARP might play important roles in neurotoxicity of deltamethrin.     

首发偏执型精神分裂症血清NO/NOS水平的研究

目的探讨首发偏执型精神分裂症血清一氧化氮/一氧化氮合成酶（NO/NOS）水平及与精神症状的关系。方法共收集首发偏执型精神分裂症患者26例（研究组）,健康对照者30例（对照组）,采用阳性与阴性症状量表（PANSS）评定患者的精神症状,同时检测血清NO/NOS水平。结果首发偏执型精神分裂症血清NO/NOS水平均显著高于健康对照组（t=2.08,P〈0.05;t=2.72,P〈0.05）,血清NO/NOS水平与精神症状无显著相关性（P〉0.05）;血清NO水平与血清NOS水平两者存在显著正相关（r=0.41,P〈0.05）。结论首发偏执型精神分裂症患者存在血清NO/NOS水平病理性增高。     

Nitric oxide synthase-immunoreactive nerve fibers in dog cerebral and peripheral arteries

Nitric oxide synthase (NOS)-immunoreactive fibers innervating the dog arterial wall were histochemically determined by the use of NOS antiserum. NOS-immunoreactive fibers were consistently found in every arterial wall examined. In a whole-mount preparation, NOS-positive fibers were detectable in the small pial artery having a diameter of about 100 μm as well as the proximal middle cerebral artery. Further detailed analyses in thin cryostat sections indicated that in middle cerebral, basilar, temporal, mesenteric and femoral arteries, fine NOS-positive fibers were detected in outer zones of the media in addition to many thicker fibers in the adventitia. However, in the coronary artery, many thick fibers ere situated in the adventitia, and fine NOS-positive fibers were not the media. Injection of ethanol to the pterygopalatine ganglion markedly decreased or abolished the NOS immunoreactivity in nerve cells and fibers and abolished the innervation of NOS-positive fibers in the wall of middle cerebral artery of the ipsilateral side. Together with findings in our previous publications concerning the functional role of nitroxidergic nerve in the control of arterial tone, we conclude that perivascular nerves containing NOS are crucial in eliciting the neurally induced, NO-mediated arterial relaxation.     

神经源型一氧化氮合酶C276T基因多态性与抑郁症相关分析

目的测定抑郁症患者抗抑郁剂治疗前后血浆一氧化氮（NO）水平变化,旨在探讨神经源型一氧化氮合酶（nNOS）基因C276T多态性与血浆NO浓度及抑郁症发病相关性。方法采用硝酸盐还原酶法测定正常对照组及抑郁症患者治疗前后血浆NO水平;全部受试者取全血标本提取基因组DNA,并采用PCR-RFLP方法对nNOS基因C276T多态性进行基因分型。结果患者组疗前血浆NO水平为（76.8±31.6）μmol/L显著高于疗后[（66.9±25.7）μmol/L,P=0.044]及正常对照组[（64.2±33.3）μmol/L,P=0.02],两组疗后血浆NO水平相比差异无显著性（P=0.588）;根据PCR-RFLP结果,nNOS基因可见两种等位基因条带C、T,组成三种基因型CC、CT、TT,两组等位基因及基因型分布频率差异无显著性（均P〉0.05）,且携带不同基因型者之间血浆NO水平差异亦无显著性（均P〉0.05）。结论血浆NO浓度增高可能是抑郁症发病的影响因素;nNOS基因C276T多态性可能不直接影响血浆NO浓度,也不是抑郁症发病的主要基因因素。

Nitric oxide synthase in cerebral ischemia

The results of our continuing studies on the role of nitric oxide (NO) in cellular mechanisms of ischemic brain damage as well as related reports from other laboratories are summarized in this paper. Repetitive ip administration ofN ^G-nitro-L-arginine (L-NNA), a NO synthase (NOS) inhibitor, protected against neuronal necrosis in the gerbil hippocampal CA1 field after transient forebrain ischemia with a bell-shaped response curve, the optimal dose being 3 mg/kg. Repeated ip administration of L-NNA also mitigated rat brain edema or infarction following permanent and transient middle cerebral artery (MCA) occlusion with a U-shaped response. The significantly ameliorative dose-range and optimal dose were 0.01–1 mg/kg and 0.03 mg/kg, respectively. Studies using a NO-sensitive microelectrode revealed that NO concentration in the affected hemisphere was remarkably increased by 15–45 min and subsequently by 1.5–4 h after MCA occlusion. Restoration of blood flow after 2 h-MCA occlusion resulted in enhanced NO production by 1–2 h after reperfusion. Administration of L-NNA (1 mg/kg, ip) diminished the increments in NO production during ischemia and reperfusion, leading to a remarkable reduction in infarct volume. In brain microvessels obtained from the affected hemisphere, Ca²⁺-dependent constitutive NOS (cNOS) was activated significantly at 15 min, and Ca²⁺-independent inducible NOS (iNOS) was activated invariably at 4 h and 24 h after MCA occlusion. Two hour reperfusion following 2 h-MCA occlusion caused more than fivefold increases in cNOS activity with no apparent alterations in iNOS activity. Thus, we report here based on available evidence that there is good reason to think that NOS activation in brain microvessels may play a role in the cellular mechanisms underlying ischemic brain injury.     

Distinct distribution and time-course changes in neuronal nitric oxide synthase and inducible NOS in the paraventricular nucleus following lipopolysaccharide injection

Nitric oxide (NO) is known to be involved in the modulation of neuroendocrine function. To clarify the role of different isoforms of NO synthase (NOS) in the neuroendocrine response to immune challenge, the expressions of neuronal NOS (nNOS) and inducible NOS (iNOS) genes in the hypothalamus following lipopolysaccharide (LPS) injection were examined using in situ hybridization. NOS activity was also determined by NADPH-diaphorase (NADPH-d) histochemistry. LPS (25 mg/kg) or sterile saline was injected intraperitoneally to male Wistar rats and the rats sacrificed 30 min, or 1, 2, 3, 5, 12 or 24 h after injection. nNOS mRNA expression in the paraventricular nucleus (PVN) was significantly increased 2 h after LPS injection. iNOS mRNA, which was not detected until 2 h after LPS injection, was significantly increased in the PVN 3 h after LPS injection. Both RNA expressions had returned to basal levels by 12 h after LPS injection. The number of NADPH-d positive cells was significantly increased 5 h after LPS injection. iNOS expression was more robust in parvocellular PVN, while nNOS was distributed mainly in the magnocellular PVN. Double in situ hybridization histochemistry revealed that some of the iNOS- (48.4%) or nNOS-positive cells (34. 3%) in the parvocellular PVN expressed CRF mRNA. The results demonstrate that LPS-induced sepsis causes significant increases in nNOS and iNOS gene expression with different time-courses and distributions, and that iNOS mRNA was more frequently co-localized with CRF-producing parvocellular neurons in the PVN. Thus, NO produced by iNOS and nNOS may play an important role in the neuroendocrine response to an immune challenge. Distinct differences in the distribution and time-course changes of iNOS and nNOS suggest different roles for the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis and/or neurohypophyseal system.

Evidence for the involvement of nitric oxide and nitric oxide synthase in the modulation of opioid-induced antinociception and the inhibitory effects of exposure to 60-Hz magnetic fields in the land snail

The attenuation of opioid peptide-mediated antinociception is a well-established effect of extremely low frequency (ELF) electromagnetic fields with alterations in calcium channel function and/or calcium ion flux and protein kinase C activity being implicated in the mediation of these effects. The present study was designed to examine the effects of nitric oxide (NO) and calcium ion/calmodulin-dependent nitric oxide synthase (NOS) on opioid-induced antinociception and their involvement in mediating the inhibitory effects of exposure to ELF magnetic fields. We observed that enkephalinase (SCH 34826)-induced, and likely enkephalin-mediated, antinociception in the land snail, Cepaea nemoralis, as measured by the enhanced latency of a foot withdrawal response to a thermal (40°C) stimulus, was reduced by the NO releasing agent, S-nitro-N-acetylpenicillamide (SNP), and enhanced by the NO synthase inhibitor, N^G-nitro- -arginine methyl ester ( -NAME). Exposure of snails to an ELF magnetic field (15 min, 60 Hz, 141 μT peak) also reduced the enkephalinase-induced antinociception. The inhibitory effects of the 60-Hz magnetic field were significantly reduced by the NO synthase inhibitor, -NAME, and significantly enhanced by the NO releasing agent, SNP, at dosages which by themselves had no evident effects on nociceptive sensitivity. These results suggest that: (1) NO and NO synthase have antagonistic effects on opioid-induced analgesia in the snail, Cepaea and (2) the inhibitory effects of ELF magnetic fields on opioid analgesia involve alteration in NO and NO synthase activity.
