Abstract
Nitric oxide (NO) is an endogenous, multipotent biological signaling molecule that participates in several physiological processes. Recently, exogenous supplementation of tumor tissues with NO has emerged as a potential anticancer therapy. In particular, it induces synergistic effects with other conventional therapies (such as chemo-, radio-, and photodynamic therapies) by regulating the activity of P-glycoprotein, acting as a vascular relaxant to relieve tumor hypoxia, and participating in the metabolism of reactive oxygen species. However, NO is highly reactive, and its half-life is relatively short after generation. Meanwhile, NO-induced anticancer activity is dose-dependent. Therefore, the targeted delivery of NO to the tumor is required for better therapeutic effects. In the past decade, NO-generating nanomedicines (NONs), which enable sustained and specific NO release in tumor tissues, have been developed for enhanced cancer therapy. This review describes the recent efforts and preclinical achievements in the development of NON-based cancer therapies. The chemical structures employed in the fabrication of NONs are summarized, and the strategies involved in NON-based cancer therapies are elaborated.

Kim J, Thomas SN. Opportunities for Nitric Oxide in Potentiating Cancer Immunotherapy. Pharmacol Rev 2022; 74:1146-1175. [PMID: 36180108 PMCID: PMC9553106 DOI: 10.1124/pharmrev.121.000500] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/21/2021] [Revised: 05/15/2022] [Accepted: 07/05/2022] [Indexed: 11/22/2022] Open
Abstract
Despite nearly 30 years of development and recent highlights of nitric oxide (NO) donors and NO delivery systems in anticancer therapy, the limited understanding of exogenous NO's effects on the immune system has prevented their advancement into clinical use. In particular, the effects of exogenously delivered NO differing from that of endogenous NO has obscured how the potential and functions of NO in anticancer therapy may be estimated and exploited despite the accumulating evidence of NO's cancer therapy-potentiating effects on the immune system. After introducing their fundamentals and characteristics, this review discusses the current mechanistic understanding of NO donors and delivery systems in modulating the immunogenicity of cancer cells as well as the differentiation and functions of innate and adaptive immune cells. Lastly, the potential for the complex modulatory effects of NO with the immune system to be leveraged for therapeutic applications is discussed in the context of recent advancements in the implementation of NO delivery systems for anticancer immunotherapy applications. SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENT: Despite a 30-year history and recent highlights of nitric oxide (NO) donors and delivery systems as anticancer therapeutics, their clinical translation has been limited. Increasing evidence of the complex interactions between NO and the immune system has revealed both the potential and hurdles in their clinical translation. This review summarizes the effects of exogenous NO on cancer and immune cells in vitro and elaborates these effects in the context of recent reports exploiting NO delivery systems in vivo in cancer therapy applications.

Abstract
A large fraction of nosocomial infections is associated with medical devices that are deemed life-threatening in immunocompromised patients. Medical device-related infections are a result of bacterial colonization and biofilm formation on the device surface that affects >1 million people annually in the US alone. Over the past few years, light-based antimicrobial therapy has made substantial advances in tackling microbial colonization. Taking the advantage of light and antibacterial properties of nitric oxide (NO), for the first time, a robust, biocompatible, anti-infective approach to design a universal disposable catheter disinfection insert (DCDI) that can both prevent bacterial adhesion and disinfect indwelling catheters in situ is reported. The DCDI is engineered using a photo-initiated NO donor molecule, incorporated in polymer tubing that is mounted on a side glow fiber optic connected to an LED light source. Using a smartphone application, the NO release from DCDI is photoactivated via white light resulting in tunable physiological levels of NO for up to 24 h. When challenged with microorganisms S. aureus and E. coli, the NO-releasing DCDI statistically reduced microbial attachment by >99% versus the controls with just 4 h of exposure. The DCDI also eradicated ∼97% of pre-colonized bacteria on the CVC catheter model demonstrating the ability to exterminate an established catheter infection. The smart, mobile-operated novel universal antibacterial device can be used to both prevent catheter infections or can be inserted within an infected catheter to eradicate the bacteria without complex surgical interventions. The therapeutic levels of NO generated via illuminating fiber optics can be the next-generation biocompatible solution for catheter-related bloodstream infections.

Abstract
Despite the noticeable evolution in wound treatment over the centuries, a functional material that promotes correct and swift wound healing is important, considering the relative weight of chronic wounds in healthcare. Difficult to heal in a fashionable time, chronic wounds are more prone to infections and complications thereof. Nitric oxide (NO) has been explored for wound healing applications due to its appealing properties, which in the wound healing context include vasodilation, angiogenesis promotion, cell proliferation, and antimicrobial activity. NO delivery is facilitated by molecules that release NO when prompted, whose stability is ensured using carriers. Hydrogels, popular materials for wound dressings, have been studied as scaffolds for NO storage and delivery, showing promising results such as enhanced wound healing, controlled and sustained NO release, and bactericidal properties. Systems reported so far regarding NO delivery by hydrogels are reviewed.

SMA-BmobaSNO: an intelligent photoresponsive nitric oxide releasing polymer for drug nanoencapsulation and targeted delivery. NANOTECHNOLOGY 2022; 33:195101.

Abstract
Nitric oxide (NO) is an important biological signalling molecule that acts to vasodilate blood vessels and change the permeability of the blood vessel wall. Due to these cardiovascular actions, co-administering NO with a therapeutic could enhance drug uptake. However current NO donors are not suitable for targeted drug delivery as they systemically release NO. To overcome this limitation we report the development of a smart polymer, SMA-BmobaSNO, designed to release NO in response to a photostimulus. The polymer's NO releasing functionality is an S-nitrosothiol group that, at 10 mg ml-1, is highly resistant to both thermal (t1/216 d) and metabolic (t1/232 h) decomposition, but rapidly brakes down under photoactivation (2700 W m-2, halogen source) to release NO (t1/225 min). Photoresponsive NO release from SMA-BmobaSNO was confirmed in a cardiovascular preparation, where irradiation resulted in a 12-fold decrease in vasorelaxation EC50(from 5.2μM to 420 nM). To demonstrate the polymer's utility for drug delivery we then used SMA-BmobaSNO to fabricate a nanoparticle containing the probe Nile Red (NR). The resulting SMA-BmobaSNO-NR nanoparticle exhibited spherical morphology (180 nm diameter) and sustained NR release (≈20% over 5 d). Targeted delivery was characterised in an abdominal preparation, where photoactivation (450 W m-2) caused localized increases in vasodilation and blood vessel permeability, resulting in a 3-fold increase in NR uptake into photoactivated tissue. Nanoparticles fabricated from SMA-BmobaSNO therefore display highly photoresponsive NO release and can apply the Trojan Horse paradigm by using endogenous NO signalling pathways to smuggle a therapeutic cargo into target tissue.

Abstract
Controlling the thermochemistry and kinetics of chemical reactions is a central problem in chemistry. Among factors permitting this control, the substituent effect constitutes a remarkable example. Here, we develop a model accounting for the effect of a substituent on the potential energy surface of the substrate (i.e., substituted molecule). We show that substituents affect the substrate by exerting forces on the nuclei. These substituent-induced forces are able to develop a work when the molecule follows a given reaction path. By applying a simple mechanical model, it becomes possible to quantify this work, which corresponds to the energy variation due to the effect of the substituent along a specific pathway. Our model accounts for the Hammett equation as a particular case, providing the first non-empirical scale for the σ and ρ constants, which, in the developed model, are related to the forces exerted by the substituents (σ) and the reaction path length (ρ), giving their product (σ · ρ) the well-known variation on the reaction energy due to the substituent.

Abstract
Nitric oxide (NO) plays an essential role in redox signaling in normal and pathological cellular conditions. In particular, it is well known to react in vivo with cysteines by the so-called S-nitrosylation reaction. S-nitrosylation is a selective and reversible post-translational modification that exerts a myriad of different effects, such as the modulation of protein conformation, activity, stability, and biological interaction networks. We have appreciated, over the last years, the role of S-nitrosylation in normal and disease conditions. In this context, structural and computational studies can help to dissect the complex and multifaceted role of this redox post-translational modification. In this review article, we summarized the current state-of-the-art on the mechanism of S-nitrosylation, along with the structural and computational studies that have helped to unveil its effects and biological roles. We also discussed the need to move new steps forward especially in the direction of employing computational structural biology to address the molecular and atomistic details of S-nitrosylation. Indeed, this redox modification has been so far an underappreciated redox post-translational modification by the computational biochemistry community. In our review, we primarily focus on S-nitrosylated proteins that are attractive cancer targets due to the emerging relevance of this redox modification in a cancer setting.

Abstract
Crosslinked polyesters with Young's moduli similar to that of certain soft biological tissues were prepared via bulk polycondensation of thiomalic acid and 1,8-octanediol alone, and with citric or maleic acid. The copolymers were converted to nitric oxide (NO)-releasing S-nitrosothiol (RSNO) analogues by reaction with tert-butyl nitrite. Additional conjugation steps were avoided by inclusion of the thiolated monomer during the polycondensation to permit thiol conversion to RSNOs. NO release at physiological pH and temperature (pH 7.4, 37 °C) was determined by chemiluminescence-based NO detection. The average total NO content for poly(thiomalic-co-maleic acid-co-1,8-octanediol), poly(thiomalic-co-citric acid-co-1,8-octanediol), and poly(thiomalic acid-co-1,8-octanediol) was 130 ± 39 μmol g-1, 200 ± 35 μmol g-1, and 130 ± 11 μmol g-1, respectively. The antibacterial properties of the S-nitrosated analogues were confirmed against Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus. The hydrolytic degradation products were analyzed by time-of-flight mass spectrometry after a 10-week study to investigate their composition. Tensile mechanical tests were performed on the non-nitrosated polymers as well as their S-nitrosated derivatives and suggested that the materials have appropriate Young's moduli and elongation values for biomedical applications.

Abstract
Nowadays, S-nitrosothiols (RSNOs) represent a promising class of nitric oxide (NO) donors that could be successfully used as drugs to compensate the decrease of NO production that usually arises in conjunction with cardiovascular diseases. Nevertheless, notwithstanding their pharmacological interest, the structure-stability relationship in RSNOs is still unclear, and this issue, together with the mechanism of NO donation in the physiological medium, deserves further investigation. As a first step forward in this direction, in this paper, the overall stability and structural preference of two pharmacologically relevant S-nitrosothiol molecules were studied in detail by means of computational strategies. In particular, performing calculations in implicit solvent (water) on the S-nitroso-N-acetylpenicillamine and the S-nitroso-N-acetylcysteine and analyzing the noncovalent interactions networks of their most stable conformers, we observed that the structure and the stability of these molecules can be directly related to the formation of stabilizing hydrogen-bond and chalcogen-chalcogen intramolecular interactions. The obtained results represent the starting point for further investigations to be conducted also on larger RSNOs to shed further light on the role played by intra- and intermolecular interactions and by solvation effects in stabilizing this class of molecules. The obtained insights will be hopefully helpful to design new RSNO-based drugs characterized by an enhanced pharmacological potency.
