Abstract
AIM Protein disulfide isomerases (PDIs) are involved in platelet aggregation and intravascular thrombosis, but their role in regulating endothelial function is unclear. Here, we characterized the involvement of vascular PDIA1 in angiotensin II (Ang II)-induced endothelial dysfunction in mice. METHODS Endothelial dysfunction was induced in C57BL/6JCmd male mice via Ang II subcutaneous infusion, and PDIA1 was inhibited with bepristat. Endothelial function was assessed in vivo with magnetic resonance imaging and ex vivo with a myography, while arterial stiffness was measured as pulse wave velocity. Nitric oxide (NO) bioavailability was measured in the aorta (spin-trapping electron paramagnetic resonance) and plasma (NO2 - and NO3 - levels). Oxidative stress, eNOS uncoupling (DHE-based aorta staining), and thrombin activity (thrombin-antithrombin complex; calibrated automated thrombography) were evaluated. RESULTS The inhibition of PDIA1 by bepristat in Ang II-treated mice prevented the impairment of NO-dependent vasodilation in the aorta as evidenced by the response to acetylcholine in vivo, increased systemic NO bioavailability and the aortic NO production, and decreased vascular stiffness. Bepristat's effect on NO-dependent function was recapitulated ex vivo in Ang II-induced endothelial dysfunction in isolated aorta. Furthermore, bepristat diminished the Ang II-induced eNOS uncoupling and overproduction of ROS without affecting thrombin activity. CONCLUSION In Ang II-treated mice, the inhibition of PDIA1 normalized the NO-ROS balance, prevented endothelial eNOS uncoupling, and, thereby, improved vascular function. These results indicate the importance of vascular PDIA1 in regulating endothelial function, but further studies are needed to elucidate the details of the mechanisms involved.

Abstract
Protein disulfide isomerase (PDI) is a redox-active enzyme and also serves as a nitric oxide donor causing S-nitrosylation of cysteine residues in various proteins. Although PDI knockdown reduces α-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methylisoxazole-4-propionic acid receptor (AMPAR)-mediated neuronal activity, the underlying mechanisms are largely unknown. In the present study, we found that under physiological condition PDI knockdown increased CaMKII activity (phosphorylation) in the mouse hippocampus. However, PDI siRNA inhibited protein phosphatase (PP) 2A-mediated GluA2 S880 dephosphorylation by increasing PP2A oxidation, independent of S-nitrosylation. PDI siRNA also enhanced glutamate ionotropic receptor AMPA type subunit 1 (GluA1) S831 and GluA2 S880, but not GluA1 S845 and GluA2 Y869/Y873/Y876 phosphorylations, concomitant with the enhanced protein interacting with C kinase 1 (PICK1)-mediated AMPAR internalization. Furthermore, PDI knockdown attenuated seizure activity and neuronal damage in response to kainic acid (a non-desensitizing agonist of AMPAR). Therefore, these findings suggest that PDI may regulate surface AMPAR expression through PP2A-GluA2-PICK1 signaling pathway, and that PDI may be one of the therapeutic targets for epilepsy via AMPAR internalization without altering basal neurotransmission.

Abstract
Drug discovery in targeted nucleic acid therapeutics encompass several stages and rigorous challenges owing to less specificity of the DNA binders and high failure rate in different stages of clinical trials. In this perspective, we report newly synthesized ethyl 4-(pyrrolo[1,2-a]quinolin-4-yl)benzoate (PQN) with minor groove A-T base pair binding selectivity and encouraging in cell results. This pyrrolo quinolin derivative has shown excellent groove binding ability with three of our inspected genomic DNAs (cpDNA 73 % AT, ctDNA58% AT and mlDNA 28 % AT) with varying A-T and G-C content. Notably in spite of similar binding patterns PQN have strong binding preference with A-T rich groove of genomic cpDNA over the ctDNA and mlDNA. Spectroscopic experiments like steady state absorption and emission results have established the relative binding strengths (Kabs = 6.3 × 105 M-1, 5.6 × 104 M-1, 4.3 × 104 M-1 and Kemiss = 6.1 × 105 M-1, 5.7 × 104 M-1 and 3.5 × 104 M-1 for PQN-cpDNA, PQN-ctDNA and PQN-mlDNA respectively) whereas circular dichroism and thermal melting studies have unveiled the groove binding mechanism. Specific A-T base pair attachment with van der Waals interaction and quantitative hydrogen bonding assessment were characterized by computational modeling. In addition to genomic DNAs, preferential A-T base pair binding in minor groove was also observed with our designed and synthesized deca-nucleotide (primer sequences 5/-GCGAATTCGC-3/ and 3/-CGCTTAAGCG-5/). Cell viability assays (86.13 % in 6.58 μM and 84.01 % in 9.88 μM concentrations) and confocal microscopy revealed low cytotoxicity (IC50 25.86 μM) and efficient perinuclear localization of PQN. We propose PQN with excellent DNA-minor groove binding capacity and intracellular permeation properties, as a lead for further studies encompassing nucleic acid therapeutics.

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.

Abstract
We studied the effect of nitric oxide (NO) on the functioning of P-glycoprotein transporter (Pgp) in Caco-2 cells. NO donor S-nitrosoglutathione (GSNO) was used in concentrations of 1, 10, 50, 100, and 500 μM; the duration of exposure was 24 h. The content of Pgp was analyzed by the Western blotting, activity of the transport protein was analyzed by the transport of its substrate fexofenadine. It was shown that GSNO in concentrations of 10 and 50 μM increased the content and activity of Pgp. Increasing the GSNO concentration to 500 μM led to the development of nitrosative stress and a decrease in the content and activity of the transporter protein.

Abstract
Emerging studies provide new data shedding some light on the complex and pivotal role of red blood cells (RBCs) in nitric oxide (NO) metabolism and paracrine regulation of endothelial function. NO is involved in the regulation of vasodilatation, platelet aggregation, inflammation, hypoxic adaptation, and oxidative stress. Even though tremendous knowledge about NO metabolism has been collected, the exact RBCs’ status still requires evaluation. This paper summarizes the actual knowledge regarding the role of erythrocytes as a mobile depot of amino acids necessary for NO biotransformation. Moreover, the complex regulation of RBCs’ translocases is presented with a particular focus on cationic amino acid transporters (CATs) responsible for the NO substrates and derivatives transport. The main part demonstrates the intraerythrocytic metabolism of L-arginine with its regulation by reactive oxygen species and arginase activity. Additionally, the process of nitrite and nitrate turnover was demonstrated to be another stable source of NO, with its reduction by xanthine oxidoreductase or hemoglobin. Additional function of hemoglobin in NO synthesis and its subsequent stabilization in steady intermediates is also discussed. Furthermore, RBCs regulate the vascular tone by releasing ATP, inducing smooth muscle cell relaxation, and decreasing platelet aggregation. Erythrocytes and intraerythrocytic NO metabolism are also responsible for the maintenance of normotension. Hence, RBCs became a promising new therapeutic target in restoring NO homeostasis in cardiovascular disorders.

Abstract
S-nitrosothiols (SNO), dinitrosyl iron complexes (DNIC), and nitroglycerine (NTG) dilate vessels via activation of soluble guanylyl cyclase (sGC) in vascular smooth muscle cells. Although these compounds are often considered to be nitric oxide (NO) donors, attempts to ascribe their vasodilatory activity to NO-donating properties have failed. Even more puzzling, many of these compounds have vasodilatory potency comparable to or even greater than that of NO itself, despite low membrane permeability. This raises the question: How do these NO adducts activate cytosolic sGC when their NO moiety is still outside the cell? In this review, we classify these compounds as ‘nitrodilators’, defined by their potent NO-mimetic vasoactivities despite not releasing requisite amounts of free NO. We propose that nitrodilators activate sGC via a preformed nitrodilator-activated NO store (NANOS) found within the vascular smooth muscle cell. We reinterpret vascular NO handling in the framework of this NANOS paradigm, and describe the knowledge gaps and perspectives of this novel model.

Abstract
Mechanisms of regulation of the P-glycoprotein (Pgp) transporter under the action of nitric oxide (NO) were studied in Caco-2 cells. S-Nitrosoglutathione (GSNO) was used as a NO donor, which was added to the cells at concentrations 1, 10, 50, 100, and 500 µM and incubated for 3, 24, or 72 h. The amount of Pgp was analyzed using Western blotting, activity was determined by monitoring transport of its substrate, fexofenadine. The study showed that a short-term exposure to GSNO for 3 h at 500 µM concentration caused increase in the concentration of peroxynitrite in Caco-2 cells, which reduced the activity, but not the amount of Pgp. Increase in the duration of exposure to 24 h increased the amount and activity of Pgp at GSNO concentrations of 10 and 50 µM, increased the amount without increasing activity at 100 µM concentration, and decreased the amount of the transporter protein at 500 µM. Duration of exposure to GSNO of 72 h at concentration of 10 µM resulted in the increase of the amount and activity of Pgp, while at concentration of 100 and 500 µM it decreased the amount of the transport protein. At the same time, it was shown using specific inhibitors that the increase in the amount of Pgp under the influence of low concentrations of GSNO was realized through the NO-cGMP signaling pathway, and the effect of the higher concentration of GSNO and the respective development of nitrosative stress was realized through Nrf2 and the constitutive androstane receptor.

Abstract
Pregnan X receptor (PXR) is a nuclear receptor that plays an important role in the regulation of the expression of biotransformation and metabolic enzymes. The functioning and possible mechanisms of PXR regulation under conditions of nitrosative stress have not been studied, which served as the purpose of this study. The work was performed on Caco-2 cells. Nitrosative stress (NS) was modeled using S-nitrosoglutathione (GSNO) at concentrations of 1 μM, 10 μM, 50 μM, 100 μM, and 500 μM and incubation during of 3 h, 24 h, and 72 h. The amount of PXR was assessed byWestern blotting. Incubation of Caco-2 cells with all concentrations GSNO for 3 h led to a decrease in the amount of PXR. Incubation with GSNO (1-50 μM) for 24 h was accompanied by an increase in the amount of PXR, while at a concentration of 100 μM this indicator did not significantly differ from the control, at a concentration of 500 μM it was lower. Prolonged incubation (72 h) enhanced NS and led to a normalization (1 μM GSNO) or a decrease of the PXR level (10-500 μM GSNO). The induction of PXR by GSNO was mediated by the effect of the nitrosative stress product bityrosine on the transcription factor. It was shown that bityrosine at concentrations of 0,4 mM and 1 mM increased the amount of PXR.

Abstract
Significance: Oxidative stress is a characteristic of many systemic diseases associated with thrombosis. Thiol isomerases are a family of oxidoreductases important in protein folding and are exquisitely sensitive to the redox environment. They are essential for thrombus formation and represent a previously unrecognized layer of control of the thrombotic process. Yet, the mechanisms by which thiol isomerases function in thrombus formation are unknown. Recent Advances: The oxidoreductase activity of thiol isomerases in thrombus formation is controlled by the redox environment via oxidative changes to active site cysteines. Specific alterations can now be detected owing to advances in the chemical biology of oxidative cysteine modifications. Critical Issues: Understanding of the role of thiol isomerases in thrombus formation has focused largely on identifying single disulfide bond modifications in isolated proteins (e.g., αIIbβ3, tissue factor, vitronectin, or glycoprotein Ibα [GPIbα]). An alternative approach is to conceptualize thiol isomerases as effectors in redox signaling pathways that control thrombotic potential by modifying substrate networks. Future Directions: Cysteine-based chemical biology will be employed to study thiol-dependent dynamics mediated by the redox state of thiol isomerases at the systems level. This approach could identify thiol isomerase-dependent modifications of the disulfide landscape that are prothrombotic.

Abstract
Significance: Since protein disulfide isomerase (PDI) was first described in 1963, researchers have shown conclusively that PDI and sibling proteins are quintessential for thrombus formation. PDI, endoplasmic reticulum protein (ERp)5, ERp57, and ERp72 are released from platelets and vascular cells and interact with integrin αIIbβ3 on the outer surface of platelets. Recent Advances: At the cell surface they influence protein folding and function, propagating thrombosis and maintaining hemostasis. TMX1, which is a transmembrane thiol isomerase, is the first family member shown to negatively regulate platelets. Targets of thiol isomerases have been identified, including integrin α2β1, Von Willebrand Factor, GpIbα, nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate oxidase (Nox)-1, Nox-2, and tissue factor, all of which are pro-thrombotic, and several of which are on the cell surface. In spite of this, PDI can paradoxically catalyze the delivery of nitric oxide to platelets, which decrease thrombus formation. Critical Issues: Although the overall effect of PDI is to positively regulate platelet activation, it is still unclear how thiol isomerases function in pro-thrombotic states, such as obesity, diabetes, and cancer. In parallel, there has been a surge in the development of novel thiol isomerase inhibitors, which display selectivity, potency and modulate thrombosis and hemostasis. The availability of selective thiol isomerase inhibitors has culminated in clinical trials, with promising outcomes for the prevention of cancer-associated thrombosis. Future Directions: Altogether, thiol isomerases are perceived as an orchestrating force that regulates thrombus development. In the current review, we will explore the history of PDI in cardiovascular biology, detail known mechanisms of action, and summarize known thiol isomerase inhibitors.

Abstract
Gasotransmitters belong to the subfamily of endogenous gaseous signaling molecules, which find a wide range of biomedical applications. Among the various gasotransmitters, nitric oxide (NO) has an enormous effect on the cardiovascular system. Apart from this, NO showed a pivotal role in neurological, respiratory, and immunological systems. Moreover, the paradoxical concentration-dependent activities make this gaseous signaling molecule more interesting. The gaseous NO has negligible stability in physiological conditions (37 °C, pH 7.4), which restricts their potential therapeutic applications. To overcome this issue, various NO delivering carriers were reported so far. Unfortunately, most of these NO donors have low stability, short half-life, or low NO payload. Herein, we review the synthesis of NO delivering motifs, development of macromolecular NO donors, their advantages/disadvantages, and biological applications. Various NO detection analytical techniques are discussed briefly, and finally, a viewpoint about the design of polymeric NO donors with improved physicochemical characteristics is predicted.

Abstract
Significance: Physiological concentrations of nitric oxide (NO•) and related reactive nitrogen species (RNS) mediate multiple signaling pathways in the nervous system. During inflammaging (chronic low-grade inflammation associated with aging) and in neurodegenerative diseases, excessive RNS contribute to synaptic and neuronal loss. "NO signaling" in both health and disease is largely mediated through protein S-nitrosylation (SNO), a redox-based posttranslational modification with "NO" (possibly in the form of nitrosonium cation [NO+]) reacting with cysteine thiol (or, more properly, thiolate anion [R-S-]). Recent Advances: Emerging evidence suggests that S-nitrosylation occurs predominantly via transnitros(yl)ation. Mechanistically, the reaction involves thiolate anion, as a nucleophile, performing a reversible nucleophilic attack on a nitroso nitrogen to form an SNO-protein adduct. Prior studies identified transnitrosylation reactions between glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH)-nuclear proteins, thioredoxin-caspase-3, and X-linked inhibitor of apoptosis (XIAP)-caspase-3. Recently, we discovered that enzymes previously thought to act in completely disparate biochemical pathways can transnitrosylate one another during inflammaging in an unexpected manner to mediate neurodegeneration. Accordingly, we reported a concerted tricomponent transnitrosylation network from Uch-L1-to-Cdk5-to-Drp1 that mediates synaptic damage in Alzheimer's disease. Critical Issues: Transnitrosylation represents a critical chemical mechanism for transduction of redox-mediated events to distinct subsets of proteins. Although thousands of thiol-containing proteins undergo S-nitrosylation, how transnitrosylation regulates a myriad of neuronal attributes is just now being uncovered. In this review, we highlight recent progress in the study of the chemical biology of transnitrosylation between proteins as a mechanism of disease. Future Directions: We discuss future areas of study of protein transnitrosylation that link our understanding of aging, inflammation, and neurodegenerative diseases. Antioxid. Redox Signal. 35, 531-550.

Abstract
Nitric oxide donors (NODs) are indispensable in biological research and disease treatment. NODs had been utilized to treat cardiovascular diseases in clinic and many others are under trial. Thiols are typically required for these donors to release NO. Yet, their mechanism is complex and often lead to resistance. Herein, we reported that N-nitrosated electron-deficient dyes are capable of NO release with one-electron reduction. A fluorophore is generated simultaneously, whose fluorescence is harnessed to monitor the profile of NO release. Through electrochemical and spectral studies, NOD f3 was found to exhibit good biocompatibility and high reduction efficiency and its potentials in cell-protection in oxygen and glucose deprivation (OGD) models were showcased with endothelial cells. This work aims at offering a new approach to design reduction-triggered NOD, which have therapeutic potentials in ischemia-reperfusion.

Abstract
Background P2X7 receptor (P2X7R) is an ATP-gated nonselective cationic channel playing important roles in a variety of physiological functions, including inflammation, and apoptotic or necrotic cell death. An extracellular domain has ten cysteine residues forming five intrasubunit disulfide bonds, which are needed for the P2X7R trafficking to the cell surface and the recognition of surface epitopes of apoptotic cells and bacteria. However, the underlying mechanisms of redox/S-nitrosylation of cysteine residues on P2X7R and its role in P2X7R-mediated post-status epilepticus (SE, a prolonged seizure activity) events remain to be answered. Methods Rats were given pilocarpine (380 mg/kg i.p.) to induce SE. Animals were intracerebroventricularly infused Nω-nitro-l-arginine methyl ester hydrochloride (L-NAME, a NOS inhibitor) 3 days before SE, or protein disulfide isomerase (PDI) siRNA 1 day after SE using an osmotic pump. Thereafter, we performed Western blot, co-immunoprecipitation, membrane fraction, measurement of S-nitrosylated (SNO)-thiol and total thiol, Fluoro-Jade B staining, immunohistochemistry, and TUNEL staining. Results SE increased S-nitrosylation ratio of P2X7R and the PDI-P2X7R bindings, which were abolished by L-NAME and PDI knockdown. In addition, both L-NAME and PDI siRNA attenuated SE-induced microglial activation and astroglial apoptosis. L-NAME and PDI siRNA also ameliorated the increased P2X7R surface expression induced by SE. Conclusions These findings suggest that PDI-mediated redox/S-nitrosylation may facilitate the trafficking of P2X7R, which promotes microglial activation and astroglial apoptosis following SE. Therefore, our findings suggest that PDI-mediated regulations of dynamic redox status and S-nitrosylation of P2X7R may be a critical mechanism in the neuroinflammation and astroglial death following SE.

Abstract
Disulfide bonds play a pivotal role in maintaining the natural structures of proteins to ensure their performance of normal biological functions. Moreover, biological molecular assembly, such as the gluten network, is also largely dependent on the intermolecular crosslinking via disulfide bonds. In eukaryotes, the formation and rearrangement of most intra- and intermolecular disulfide bonds in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) are mediated by protein disulfide isomerases (PDIs), which consist of multiple thioredoxin-like domains. These domains assist correct folding of proteins, as well as effectively prevent the aggregation of misfolded ones. Protein misfolding often leads to the formation of pathological protein aggregations that cause many diseases. On the other hand, glutenin aggregation and subsequent crosslinking are required for the formation of a rheologically dominating gluten network. Herein, the mechanism of PDI-regulated disulfide bond formation is important for understanding not only protein folding and associated diseases, but also the formation of functional biomolecular assembly. This review systematically illustrated the process of human protein disulfide isomerase (hPDI) mediated disulfide bond formation and complemented this with the current mechanism of wheat protein disulfide isomerase (wPDI) catalyzed formation of gluten networks.

Abstract
Contact repulsion of growing axons is an essential mechanism for spinal nerve patterning. In birds and mammals the embryonic somites generate a linear series of impenetrable barriers, forcing axon growth cones to traverse one half of each somite as they extend towards their body targets. This study shows that protein disulphide isomerase provides a key component of these barriers, mediating contact repulsion at the cell surface in chick half-somites. Repulsion is reduced both in vivo and in vitro by a range of methods that inhibit enzyme activity. The activity is critical in initiating a nitric oxide/S-nitrosylation-dependent signal transduction pathway that regulates the growth cone cytoskeleton. Rat forebrain grey matter extracts contain a similar activity, and the enzyme is expressed at the surface of cultured human astrocytic cells and rat cortical astrocytes. We suggest this system is co-opted in the brain to counteract and regulate aberrant nerve terminal growth.

Abstract
Long considered vital to antioxidant defenses, thiol chemistry has more recently been recognized to be of fundamental importance to cell signaling. S-nitrosothiols—such as S-nitrosoglutathione (GSNO)—and hydrogen sulfide (H2S) are physiologic signaling thiols that are regulated enzymatically. Current evidence suggests that they modify target protein function primarily through post-translational modifications. GSNO is made by NOS and other metalloproteins; H2S by metabolism of cysteine, homocysteine and cystathionine precursors. GSNO generally acts independently of NO generation and has a variety of gene regulatory, immune modulator, vascular, respiratory and neuronal effects. Some of this physiology is shared with H2S, though the mechanisms differ. Recent evidence also suggests that molecules resulting from reactions between GSNO and H2S, such as thionitrous acid (HSNO), could also have a role in physiology. Taken together, these data suggest important new potential targets for thiol-based drug development.

Abstract
Thiol isomerases are oxidoreductases that mediate disulphide bond formation in nascent proteins of the endoplasmic reticulum to ensure their structural integrity. In addition to its role in protein folding, thiol isomerases can modify allosteric disulphide bonds in both intracellular and extracellular proteins, thereby controlling protein function. The process of disulphide bond formation and cleavage is strictly regulated and responsive to redox conditions. Understanding disulphide bond regulation under different redox environments is critical to understanding physiological and pathological processes related to disulphide bond chemistry. Here we describe protocols for the measurement of disulphide bond modulation by thiol isomerases, including reductase and denitrosylase assays. These methods can be applied to study recombinant thiol isomerases and thiol isomerases in cellular settings.

Abstract
Redox modulation and S-nitrosylation of cysteine residues are the post-translational modifications of N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor (NMDAR) to regulate its functionality. Recently, we have reported that protein disulfide isomerase (PDI) reduces disulfide bond (S-S) to free thiol (-SH) on NMDAR. Since PDI is a modulator of S-nitrosylation on various proteins, it is noteworthy whether PDI affects S-nitrosylation of NMDAR in acute seizure and chronic epilepsy models. In the present study, we found that acute seizures in response to pilocarpine and spontaneous seizures in chronic epilepsy rats led to the reduction in S-nitrosylated thiol (SNO-thiol)-to-total thiol ratio on NMDAR, while they elevated nitric oxide (NO) level and S-nitrosylation on NMDAR. N-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester (L-NAME, a non-selective NOS inhibitor) did not affect seizure activities in both models, although it decreased SNO-thiol levels on NMDAR. However, PDI knockdown effectively inhibited pilocarpine-induced acute seizures and spontaneous seizures in chronic epilepsy rats, accompanied by increasing the SNO-thiol-to-total thiol ratio on NMDAR due to diminishing the amounts of total thiols on GluN1 and GluN2A. Therefore, these findings indicate that PDI may not be a NO donor or a denitrosylase for NMDAR, and that PDI knockdown may inhibit seizure activity by the S-nitrosylation-independent thiolation on NMDAR.

Abstract
Essentials Nitric oxide synthesis controls protein disulfide isomerase (PDI) function. Nitric oxide (NO) modulation of PDI controls endothelial thrombogenicity. S-nitrosylated PDI inhibits platelet function and thrombosis. Nitric oxide maintains vascular quiescence in part through inhibition of PDI. SUMMARY: Background Protein disulfide isomerase (PDI) plays an essential role in thrombus formation, and PDI inhibition is being evaluated clinically as a novel anticoagulant strategy. However, little is known about the regulation of PDI in the vasculature. Thiols within the catalytic motif of PDI are essential for its role in thrombosis. These same thiols bind nitric oxide (NO), which is a potent regulator of vessel function. To determine whether regulation of PDI represents a mechanism by which NO controls vascular quiescence, we evaluated the effect of NO on PDI function in endothelial cells and platelets, and thrombus formation in vivo. Aim To assess the effect of S-nitrosylation on the regulation of PDI and other thiol isomerases in the vasculature. Methods and results The role of endogenous NO in PDI activity was evaluated by incubating endothelium with an NO scavenger, which resulted in exposure of free thiols, increased thiol isomerase activity, and enhanced thrombin generation on the cell membrane. Conversely, exposure of endothelium to NO+ carriers or elevation of endogenous NO levels by induction of NO synthesis resulted in S-nitrosylation of PDI and decreased surface thiol reductase activity. S-nitrosylation of platelet PDI inhibited its reductase activity, and S-nitrosylated PDI interfered with platelet aggregation, α-granule release, and thrombin generation on platelets. S-nitrosylated PDI also blocked laser-induced thrombus formation when infused into mice. S-nitrosylated ERp5 and ERp57 were found to have similar inhibitory activity. Conclusions These studies identify NO as a critical regulator of vascular PDI, and show that regulation of PDI function is an important mechanism by which NO maintains vascular quiescence.

Abstract
Nitrite and S-nitrosothiols (SNOs) are both byproducts of nitric oxide (NO) metabolism and are proposed to cause vasodilation via activation of soluble guanylate cyclase (sGC). We have previously reported that while SNOs are potent vasodilators at physiological concentrations, nitrite itself only produces vasodilation at supraphysiological concentrations. Here, we tested the hypothesis that sub-vasoactive concentrations of nitrite potentiate the vasodilatory effects of SNOs. Multiple exposures of isolated sheep arteries to S-nitroso-glutathione (GSNO) resulted in a tachyphylactic decreased vasodilatory response to GSNO but not to NO, suggesting attenuation of signaling steps upstream from sGC. Exposure of arteries to 1 μM nitrite potentiated the vasodilatory effects of GSNO in naive arteries and abrogated the tachyphylactic response to GSNO in pre-exposed arteries, suggesting that nitrite facilitates GSNO-mediated activation of sGC. In intact anesthetized sheep and rats, inhibition of NO synthases to decrease plasma nitrite levels attenuated vasodilatory responses to exogenous infusions of GSNO, an effect that was reversed by exogenous infusion of nitrite at sub-vasodilating levels. This study suggests nitrite potentiates SNO-mediated vasodilation via a mechanism that lies upstream from activation of sGC.

Abstract
Nitrite was once thought to be inert in human physiology. However, research over the past few decades has established a link between nitrite and the production of nitric oxide (NO) that is potentiated under hypoxic and acidic conditions. Under this new role nitrite acts as a storage pool for bioavailable NO. The NO so produced is likely to play important roles in decreasing platelet activation, contributing to hypoxic vasodilation and minimizing blood-cell adhesion to endothelial cells. Researchers have proposed multiple mechanisms for nitrite reduction in the blood. However, NO production in blood must somehow overcome rapid scavenging by hemoglobin in order to be effective. Here we review the role of red blood cell hemoglobin in the reduction of nitrite and present recent research into mechanisms that may allow nitric oxide and other reactive nitrogen signaling species to escape the red blood cell.

Abstract
S-nitrosoglutathione (GSNO)-induced apoptosis is associated with reactive oxygen species and loss of mitochondrial Omi/HtrA2 in human endothelial cells (ECs). But its upstream regulation is still not elucidated. Here, we demonstrate that hypoxia induced factor-1α (HIF-1α)-linked aerobic glycolysis is associated with mitochondrial abnormality by treatment of human EC-derived EA.hy926 cells with GSNO (500 µM) for 6 h. GSNO exposure increased the levels of Aldolase A and glucose transporter-1 (GLUT1) mRNAs and proteins. And selectively enhanced aldolase A activity to form glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate, dihydroxyacetone phosphate, which subsequently increased intracellular levels of methylglyoxal and reactive oxygen species in parallel. Using the biotin switch assay, we found that GSNO increased the S-nitrosylating levels of total protein and HIF-1α. Knockdown of HIF-1α with siRNA attenuated its target aldolase A and GLUT1 expression but not VEGF. In contrast, nitrosylation scanvenger dithiothreitol could decrease all the protein levels. It suggested that aerobic glycolytic flux was more dependent on HIF-1α level, and that HIF-1α S-nitrosylation was crucial for its target expression under the normoxic condition. Moreover, GSNO-induced PI3 K (phosphoinositide 3-kinase)/Akt phosphorylation might contribute to HIF-1α stabilization and nucleus translocation, thereby aiding aldolase A and GLUT1 mRNAs upregulation. Taken together, higher concentration GSNO promotes glycolytic flux enhancement and methylglyoxal formation via HIF-1α S-nitrosylation. These findings reveal the mechanism of enhanced glycolysis-associated mitochondrial dysfunction in ECs by GSNO exposure under normoxic and non-hyperglycemic condition. And offer the early potential targets for vascular pathophysiological evaluation. J. Cell. Biochem. 118: 2443-2453, 2017. © 2017 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Abstract
Metabolic Syndrome (MetS) has become a worldwide epidemic, alongside with a high socioeconomic cost, and its diagnostic criteria must include at least three out of the five features: visceral obesity, hypertension, dyslipidemia, insulin resistance, and high fasting glucose levels. MetS shows an increased oxidative stress associated with platelet hyperactivation, an essential component for thrombus formation and ischemic events in MetS patients. Platelet aggregation is governed by the peroxide tone and the activity of Protein Disulfide Isomerase (PDI) at the cell membrane. PDI redox active sites present active cysteine residues that can be susceptible to changes in plasma oxidative state, as observed in MetS. However, there is a lack of knowledge about the relationship between PDI and platelet hyperactivation under MetS and its metabolic features, in spite of PDI being a mediator of important pathways implicated in MetS-induced platelet hyperactivation, such as insulin resistance and nitric oxide dysfunction. Thus, the aim of this review is to analyze data available in the literature as an attempt to support a possible role for PDI in MetS-induced platelet hyperactivation.

Abstract
Nitric oxide (NO) can regulate signaling pathways via S-nitrosylation. Fyn can be post-translationally modified in many biological processes. In the present study, using a rat four-vessel-occlusion ischemic model, we aimed to assess whether Fyn could be S-nitrosylated and to evaluate the effects of Fyn S-nitrosylation on brain damage. In vitro, Fyn could be S-nitrosylated by S-nitrosoglutathione (GSNO, an exogenous NO donor), and in vivo, endogenous NO synthesized by NO synthases (NOS) could enhance Fyn S-nitrosylation. Application of GSNO, 7-nitroindazole (7-NI, an inhibitor of neuronal NOS) and hydrogen maleate (MK-801, the N-methyl-d-aspartate receptor (NMDAR) antagonist) could decrease the S-nitrosylation and phosphorylation of Fyn induced by cerebral ischemia/reperfusion (I/R). Cresyl violet staining validated that these compounds exerted neuroprotective effects against the cerebral I/R-induced damage to hippocampal CA1 neurons. Taken together, in this study, we demonstrated that Fyn can be S-nitrosylated both in vitro and in vivo and that inhibiting S-nitrosylation can exert neuroprotective effects against cerebral I/R injury, potentially via NMDAR-mediated mechanisms. These findings may lead to a new field of inquiry to investigate the underlying pathogenesis of stroke and the development of novel treatment strategies.

Abstract
Thiol isomerases are multifunctional enzymes that influence protein structure via their oxidoreductase, isomerase, and chaperone activities. These enzymes localize at high concentrations in the endoplasmic reticulum of all eukaryotic cells where they serve an essential function in folding nascent proteins. However, thiol isomerases can escape endoplasmic retention and be secreted and localized on plasma membranes. Several thiol isomerases including protein disulfide isomerase, ERp57, and ERp5 are secreted by and localize to the membranes of platelets and endothelial cells. These vascular thiol isomerases are released following vessel injury and participate in thrombus formation. Although most of the activities of vascular thiol isomerases that contribute to thrombus formation are yet to be defined at the molecular level, allosteric disulfide bonds that are modified by thiol isomerases have been described in substrates such as αIIbβ3, αvβ3, GPIbα, tissue factor, and thrombospondin. Vascular thiol isomerases also act as redox sensors. They respond to the local redox environment and influence S-nitrosylation of surface proteins on platelets and endothelial cells. Despite our rudimentary understanding of the mechanisms by which thiol isomerases control vascular function, the clinical utility of targeting them in thrombotic disorders is already being explored in clinical trials.

S-nitrosothiols dilate the mesenteric artery more potently than the femoral artery by a cGMP and L-type calcium channel-dependent mechanism. Nitric Oxide 2016; 58:20-7.

Abstract
S-nitrosothiols (SNOs) are metabolites of NO with potent vasodilatory activity. Our previous studies in sheep indicated that intra-arterially infused SNOs dilate the mesenteric vasculature more than the femoral vasculature. We hypothesized that the mesenteric artery is more responsive to SNO-mediated vasodilation, and investigated various steps along the NO/cGMP pathway to determine the mechanism for this difference. In anesthetized adult sheep, we monitored the conductance of mesenteric and femoral arteries during infusion of S-nitroso-l-cysteine (L-cysNO), and found mesenteric vascular conductance increased (137 ± 3%) significantly more than femoral conductance (26 ± 25%). Similar results were found in wire myography studies of isolated sheep mesenteric and femoral arteries. Vasodilation by SNOs was attenuated in both vessel types by the presence of ODQ (sGC inhibitor), and both YC-1 (sGC agonist) and 8-Br-cGMP (cGMP analog) mediated more potent relaxation in mesenteric arteries than femoral arteries. The vasodilatory difference between mesenteric and femoral arteries was eliminated by antagonists of either protein kinase G or L-type Ca(2+) channels. Western immunoblots showed a larger L-type Ca(2+)/sGC abundance ratio in mesenteric arteries than in femoral arteries. Fetal sheep mesenteric arteries were more responsive to SNOs than adult mesenteric arteries, and had a greater L-Ca(2+)/sGC ratio (p = 0.047 and r = -0.906 for correlation between Emax and L-Ca(2+)/sGC). These results suggest that mesenteric arteries, especially those in fetus, are more responsive to SNO-mediated vasodilation than femoral arteries due to a greater role of the L-type calcium channel in the NO/cGMP pathway.

Abstract
S-nitrosothiols (SNOs) such as S-nitroso-L-cysteine (L-cysNO) are endogenous compounds with potent vasodilatory activity. During circulation in the blood, the NO moiety can be exchanged among various thiol-containing compounds by S-transnitrosylation, resulting in SNOs with differing capacities to enter the cell (membrane permeability). To determine whether the vasodilating potency of SNOs is dependent upon membrane permeability, membrane-permeable L-cysNO and impermeable S-nitroso-D-cysteine (D-cysNO) and S-nitroso-glutathione (GSNO) were infused into one femoral artery of anesthetized adult sheep while measuring bilateral femoral and systemic vascular conductances. L-cysNO induced vasodilation in the infused hind limb, whereas D-cysNO and GSNO did not. L-cysNO also increased intracellular NO in isolated arterial smooth muscle cells, whereas GSNO did not. The infused SNOs remained predominantly in a low molecular weight form during first-passage through the hind limb vasculature, but were converted into high molecular weight SNOs upon systemic recirculation. At systemic concentrations of ~0.6 μmol/L, all three SNOs reduced mean arterial blood pressure by ~50%, with pronounced vasodilation in the mesenteric bed. Pharmacokinetics of L-cysNO and GSNO were measured in vitro and in vivo and correlated with their hemodynamic effects, membrane permeability, and S-transnitrosylation. These results suggest local vasodilation by SNOs in the hind limb requires membrane permeation, whereas systemic vasodilation does not. The systemic hemodynamic effects of SNOs occur after equilibration of the NO moiety amongst the plasma thiols via S-transnitrosylation.

Abstract
SIGNIFICANCE The mammalian endoplasmic reticulum (ER) houses a large family of twenty thioredoxin-like proteins of which protein disulfide isomerase (PDI) is the archetypal member. Although the PDI family is best known for its role in oxidative protein folding of secretory proteins in the ER, these thioredoxin-like proteins fulfill ever-expanding roles, both within the secretory pathway and beyond. RECENT ADVANCES Secreted PDI family proteins have now been shown to serve a critical role in platelet thrombus formation and fibrin generation. Utilizing intravital microscopy to visualize thrombus formation in mice, we have demonstrated the presence of extracellular PDI antigen during thrombus formation following injury of the vascular wall. Inhibition of PDI abrogates thrombus formation in vivo (16, 26, 46, 55). These observations have been extended to other PDI family members, including ERp57 (39, 116, 118, 123) and ERp5 (77). The vascular thiol isomerases are those PDI family members secreted from platelets and/or endothelium (40): PDI, ERp57, ERp5, ERp72, ERp44, ERp29, and TMX3. We focus here on PDI (16, 46, 55), ERp57 (39, 116, 118, 123), and ERp5 (77), which have been implicated in thrombus formation in vivo. CRITICAL ISSUES It would appear that a system of thiol isomerase redox catalysts has been hijacked from the ER to regulate thrombus formation in the vasculature. FUTURE DIRECTIONS How this redox system is trafficked to and regulated at the cell surface, the identity of extracellular substrates, why so many thiol isomerases are required, and which thiol isomerase functions are necessary are critical unanswered questions in understanding the role of thiol isomerases in thrombus formation.

Abstract
The versatile chemistry of nitrogen is important to pulmonary physiology. Indeed, almost all redox forms of nitrogen are relevant to pulmonary physiology and to pathophysiology. Here we review the relevance to pulmonary biology of (a) elemental nitrogen; (b) reduced forms of nitrogen such as amines, ammonia, and hydroxylamine; and (c) oxidized forms of nitrogen such as the nitroxyl anion, the nitric oxide free radical, and S-nitrosothiols. Our focus is on oxidized nitrogen in the form of S-nitrosothiol bond-containing species, which are now appreciated to be important to every type of cell-signaling process in the lung. We also review potential clinical applications of nitrogen oxide biochemistry. These principles are being translated into clinical practice as diagnostic techniques and therapies for a range of pulmonary diseases including asthma, cystic fibrosis, adult respiratory distress syndrome, primary ciliary dyskinesia, and pulmonary hypertension.

Abstract
Protein disulphide isomerase (PDI) is a multifunctional redox chaperone of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). Since it was first discovered 40 years ago the functions ascribed to PDI have evolved significantly and recent studies have recognized its distinct functions, with adverse as well as protective effects in disease. Furthermore, post translational modifications of PDI abrogate its normal functional roles in specific disease states. This review focusses on recent studies that have identified novel functions for PDI relevant to specific diseases.

Abstract
Protein disulfide isomerase (PDI), is a member of the thioredoxin superfamily of redox proteins. PDI has three catalytic activities including, thiol-disulfide oxireductase, disulfide isomerase and redox-dependent chaperone. Originally, PDI was identified in the lumen of the endoplasmic reticulum and subsequently detected at additional locations, such as cell surfaces and the cytosol. This review will provide an overview of the recent advances in relating the structural features of PDI to its multiple catalytic roles as well as its physiological and pathophysiological functions related to redox regulation and protein folding.

Mechanisms and targets of the modulatory action of S-nitrosoglutathione (GSNO) on inflammatory cytokines expression. Arch Biochem Biophys 2014; 562:80-91. [PMID: 25135357 DOI: 10.1016/j.abb.2014.08.002] [Citation(s) in RCA: 17] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/05/2014] [Revised: 08/04/2014] [Accepted: 08/05/2014] [Indexed: 02/07/2023]
Abstract
A number of experimental studies has documented that S-nitrosoglutathione (GSNO), the main endogenous low-molecular-weight S-nitrosothiol, can exert modulatory effects on inflammatory processes, thus supporting its potential employment in medicine for the treatment of important disease conditions. At molecular level, GSNO effects have been shown to modulate the activity of a series of transcription factors (notably NF-κB, AP-1, CREB and others) as well as other components of signal transduction chains (e.g. IKK-β, caspase 1, calpain and others), resulting in the modulation of several cytokines and chemokines expression (TNFα, IL-1β, IFN-γ, IL-4, IL-8, RANTES, MCP-1 and others). Results reported to date are however not univocal, and a single main mechanism of action for the observed anti-inflammatory effects of GSNO has not been identified. Conflicting observations can be explained by differences among the various cell types studies as to the relative abundance of enzymes in charge of GSNO metabolism (GSNO reductase, γ-glutamyltransferase, protein disulfide isomerase and others), as well as by variables associated with the individual experimental models employed. Altogether, anti-inflammatory properties of GSNO seem however to prevail, and exploration of the therapeutic potential of GSNO and analogues appears therefore warranted.

Abstract
Protein disulfide isomerase (PDI), ERp5, and ERp57, among perhaps other thiol isomerases, are important for the initiation of thrombus formation. Using the laser injury thrombosis model in mice to induce in vivo arterial thrombus formation, it was shown that thrombus formation is associated with PDI secretion by platelets, that inhibition of PDI blocked platelet thrombus formation and fibrin generation, and that endothelial cell activation leads to PDI secretion. Similar results using this and other thrombosis models in mice have demonstrated the importance of ERp5 and ERp57 in the initiation of thrombus formation. The integrins, αIIbβ3 and αVβ3, play a key role in this process and interact directly with PDI, ERp5, and ERp57. The mechanism by which thiol isomerases participate in thrombus generation is being evaluated using trapping mutant forms to identify substrates of thiol isomerases that participate in the network pathways linking thiol isomerases, platelet receptor activation, and fibrin generation. PDI as an antithrombotic target is being explored using isoquercetin and quercetin 3-rutinoside, inhibitors of PDI identified by high throughput screening. Regulation of thiol isomerase expression, analysis of the storage, and secretion of thiol isomerases and determination of the electron transfer pathway are key issues to understanding this newly discovered mechanism of regulation of the initiation of thrombus formation.

Abstract
Ingestion of a meal is the greatest challenge faced by glucose homeostasis. The surge of nutrients has to be disposed quickly, as high concentrations in the bloodstream may have pathophysiological effects, and also properly, as misplaced reserves may induce problems in affected tissues. Thus, loss of the ability to adequately dispose of ingested nutrients can be expected to lead to glucose intolerance, and favor the development of pathologies. Achieving interplay of several organs is of upmost importance to maintain effectively postprandial glucose clearance, with the liver being responsible of orchestrating global glycemic control. This dogmatic role of the liver in postprandial insulin sensitivity is tightly associated with the vagus nerve. Herein, we uncover the behaviour of metabolic pathways determined by hepatic parasympathetic function status, in physiology and in pathophysiology. Likewise, the inquiry expands to address the impact of a modern lifestyle, especially one's feeding habits, on the hepatic parasympathetic nerve control of glucose metabolism.

Abstract
Most proteins in nature are chemically modified after they are made to control how, when, and where they function. The 3 core features of proteins are posttranslationally modified: amino acid side chains can be modified, peptide bonds can be cleaved or isomerized, and disulfide bonds can be cleaved. Cleavage of peptide bonds is a major mechanism of protein control in the circulation, as exemplified by activation of the blood coagulation and complement zymogens. Cleavage of disulfide bonds is emerging as another important mechanism of protein control in the circulation. Recent advances in our understanding of control of soluble blood proteins and blood cell receptors by functional disulfide bonds is discussed as is how these bonds are being identified and studied.

Abstract
Tissue factor (TF), the cellular receptor and cofactor for factor VII/VIIa, initiates haemostasis and thrombosis. Initial tissue distribution studies suggested that TF was sequestered from the circulation and only present at perivascular sites. However, there is now clear evidence that TF also exists as a blood-borne form with critical contributions not only to arterial thrombosis following plaque rupture and to venous thrombosis following endothelial perturbation, but also to various other clotting abnormalities associated with trauma, infection, or cancer. Because thrombin generation, fibrin deposition, and platelet aggregation in the contexts of haemostasis, thrombosis, and pathogen defence frequently occur without TF de novo synthesis, considerable efforts are still directed to understanding the molecular events underlying the conversion of predominantly non-coagulant or cryptic TF on the surface of haematopoietic cells to a highly procoagulant molecule following cellular injury or stimulation. This article will review some of the still controversial mechanisms implicated in cellular TF activation or decryption with particular focus on the coordinated effects of outer leaflet phosphatidylserine exposure and thiol-disulfide exchange pathways involving protein disulfide isomerase (PDI). In this regard, our recent findings of ATP-triggered stimulation of the purinergic P2X7 receptor on myeloid and smooth muscle cells resulting in potent TF activation and shedding of procoagulant microparticles as well as of rapid monocyte TF decryption following antithymocyte globulin-dependent membrane complement fixation have delineated specific PDI-dependent pathways of cellular TF activation and thus illustrated additional and novel links in the coupling of inflammation and coagulation.

Abstract
Neurodegenerative diseases involve the progressive loss of neurons, and a pathological hallmark is the presence of abnormal inclusions containing misfolded proteins. Although the precise molecular mechanisms triggering neurodegeneration remain unclear, endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress, elevated oxidative and nitrosative stress, and protein misfolding are important features in pathogenesis. Protein disulphide isomerase (PDI) is the prototype of a family of molecular chaperones and foldases upregulated during ER stress that are increasingly implicated in neurodegenerative diseases. PDI catalyzes the rearrangement and formation of disulphide bonds, thus facilitating protein folding, and in neurodegeneration may act to ameliorate the burden of protein misfolding. However, an aberrant posttranslational modification of PDI, S-nitrosylation, inhibits its protective function in these conditions. S-nitrosylation is a redox-mediated modification that regulates protein function by covalent addition of nitric oxide- (NO-) containing groups to cysteine residues. Here, we discuss the evidence for abnormal S-nitrosylation of PDI (SNO-PDI) in neurodegeneration and how this may be linked to another aberrant modification of PDI, S-glutathionylation. Understanding the role of aberrant S-nitrosylation/S-glutathionylation of PDI in the pathogenesis of neurodegenerative diseases may provide insights into novel therapeutic interventions in the future.

Abstract
Protein disulfide isomerase (PDI) is an abundant protein primarily found in the endoplasmic reticulum and also secreted into the blood by a variety of vascular cells. The evidence obtained here, suggests that PDI could directly participate in the efflux of NO+ from red blood cells (RBC). PDI was detected both in RBC membranes and in the cytosol. PDI was S-nitrosylated when RBCs were exposed to nitrite under ∼50% oxygen saturation but not under ∼100% oxygen saturation. Furthermore, it was observed that hemoglobin (Hb) could promote PDI S-nitrosylation in the presence of ∼600 nM nitrite. In addition, three lines of evidence were obtained for PDI–Hb interactions: (1) Hb co-immunoprecipitated with PDI; (2) Hb quenched the intrinsic PDI fluorescence in a saturable manner; and (3) Hb–Fe(II)–NO absorption spectrum decreased in a [PDI]-dependent manner. Finally, PDI was detected on the surface RBC under ∼100% oxygen saturation and released as soluble under ∼50% oxygen saturation. The soluble PDI detected under ∼50% oxygen saturation was S-nitrosylated. Based on these data it is proposed that PDI is taken up by RBC and forms a complex with Hb. Hb–Fe(II)–NO that is formed from nitrite reduction under ∼50% O2, then transfers NO+ to either Hb–Cys β93 or directly to PDI resulting in S-nitroso-PDI which transverses the RBC membrane and attaches to the RBC surface. When RBCs enter tissues the S-nitroso-PDI is released from the RBC-surface into the blood where its NO+ is transferred into the endothelium thereby inducing vasodilation, suggesting local oxygen-dependent dynamic interplays between nitrite, NO and S-nitrosylation. Red blood cells (RBC) contain protein disulfide isomerase (PDI) that can associate with hemoglobin. Formation of S-nitroso-PDI is an oxygen- and Hb-dependent process. S-nitroso-PDI associates with RBC surface in an oxygen dependent manner that facilitates its release under hypoxia.
