“…Nitration of tyrosine residues, mediated by MPOgenerated nitrogen dioxide, causes inhibition of superoxide dismutase (39) and prostacyclin synthase activity (40), accelerates fibrinogen coagulation properties (41), and modulates migratory properties of matrix proteins such as FN (42). Finally, after endothelial MPO binding, transcytosis and accumulation within the subendothelial matrix, MPO catalyzes NO oxidation, primarily through the generation of secondary radical intermediates, to potently inhibit NO-dependent vascular signaling (12,13,43).…”

Recruitment and activation of polymorphonuclear neutrophils (PMNs) reflects a primary immunological response to invading pathogens and has also emerged as a hallmark of vascular inflammation. One of the principal enzymes released upon PMN activation is myeloperoxidase (MPO), a heme protein that not only generates cytotoxic oxidants but also impacts deleteriously on nitric oxide-dependent signaling cascades within the vasculature. Because MPO also associates with the membrane of PMN, we evaluated whether MPO could also function as an autocrine modulator of PMN activation. The extent of PMN membrane-associated MPO was elevated in patients with acute inflammatory vascular disease compared with healthy individuals. Isolated PMNs bound free MPO by a CD11b͞CD18 integrin-dependent mechanism. PMNs exposed to MPO were characterized by increased tyrosine phosphorylation and p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase activation. Also, nuclear translocation of NF B in PMN was enhanced after incubation with MPO, as was surface expression of CD11b. Binding of PMN to MPO-coated fibronectin surfaces amplified PMN degranulation, as evidenced by increased release of MPO and elastase. MPO also augmented PMN-dependent superoxide (O 2 •؊ ) production, which was prevented by anti-CD11b antibodies, but not MPO inhibitors. Collectively, these results reveal that binding of MPO to CD11b͞CD18 integrins stimulates PMN signaling pathways to induce PMN activation in a mechanism independent of MPO catalytic activity. These cytokine-like properties of MPO thus represent an additional dimension of the proinflammatory actions of MPO in vascular disease.atherosclerosis ͉ cytokine ͉ endothelium ͉ leukocyte ͉ nitric oxide

“…Similarly, MPO can generate nitrogen dioxide radical (NO2 • ) to form 3-nitrotyrosine and produce tyrosyl radicals from free tyrosine that can subsequently oxidize protein tyrosyl residues to form o, o′-dityrosine (29)(30)(31). By consuming nitric oxide, MPO action can also reduce vasodilator bioavailability, leading to vascular dysfunction (32).…”

Increased myeloperoxidase (MPO) levels and activity are associated with increased cardiovascular risk among individuals with chronic kidney disease (CKD). However, a lack of good animal models for examining the presence and catalytic activity of MPO in vascular lesions has impeded mechanistic studies into CKD-associated cardiovascular diseases. Here, we show for the first time that exaggerated atherosclerosis in a pathophysiologically relevant CKD mouse model is associated with increased macrophage-derived MPO activity. Male 7-week-old LDL receptordeficient mice underwent sham (control mice) or 5/6 nephrectomy and were fed either a low-fat or high-fat, high-cholesterol diet for 24 weeks, and the extents of atherosclerosis and vascular reactivity were assessed. MPO expression and oxidation products, and the protein-bound oxidized tyrosine moieties 3-chlorotyrosine, 3-nitrotyrosine, and o,o′-dityrosine were examined with immunoassays and confirmed with mass spectrometry (MS). As anticipated, the CKD mice had significantly higher plasma creatinine, urea nitrogen, and intact parathyroid hormone along with lower hematocrit and body weight. On both the diet regimens, CKD mice did not have hypertension but had lower cholesterol and triglyceride levels than the control mice. Despite the lower cholesterol levels, CKD mice had increased aortic plaque areas, fibrosis, and luminal narrowing. They also exhibited increased MPO expression and activity (i.e., increased oxidized tyrosines) that co-localized with infiltrating lesional macrophages and diminished vascular reactivity. In summary, unlike non-CKD mouse models of atherosclerosis, CKD mice exhibit increased MPO expression and catalytic activity in atherosclerotic lesions, which colocalize with lesional macrophages. These results implicate macrophage-derived MPO in CKDaccelerated atherosclerosis.Chronic kidney disease (CKD) affects 15% of Americans, and cardiovascular disease (CVD) continues to be the leading cause of mortality in Myeloperoxidase oxidizes artery proteins in kidney disease2 these patients (>10-fold mortality compared to the general population) (1-6). An increased risk for CVD is evident even in milder and non-albuminuric forms of CKD and cannot be fully explained by traditional risk factors (7-10). Furthermore, control of established risk factors such as hyperlipidemia results in substantially lower risk reduction in CKD patients compared to the general population (11). Recent evidence supports the key role of nontraditional risk factors (e.g., oxidative stress) in the pathogenesis of CVD in CKD (12-17), suggesting that CKD-specific mechanisms are responsible for CVD in kidney patients.Atherosclerosis, the major cause of CVD, is a chronic inflammatory disease characterized by the infiltration of lipids and inflammatory cells, such as monocyte-derived macrophages and Tlymphocytes, into the artery wall (18). While elevated levels of low-density lipoprotein (LDL) are known to increase the risk of atherosclerosis greatly (19), in vitro studies sugges...

“…Even though leukocyte peroxi-dases are believed to play a dominant role in the consumption of NO-derived oxidants at sites of inflammation (as a part of host defenses against oxidative tissue injury), ferrous oxygenated Hb and Mb (HbO 2 and MbO 2 , respectively) indeed are involved in the major pathway for NO removal from the vascular compartment and in the protection of mitochondrial respiration (4,6,10,12,14,26), respectively. Hereafter, we deal with these reactions under aerobic and anaerobic conditions, discriminating between reducing environmental conditions and oxidative conditions.…”

Catalytic peroxidation of nitrogen monoxide and peroxynitrite by globins

et al. 2008

SummaryGlobins are generally considered as carriers of diatomic gaseous ligands (e.g., O 2 and NO) in metazoa. Recently, the (pseudo-)enzymatic activity of globins towards reactive nitrogen and oxygen species has been elucidated. In particular, some globins (e.g., hemoglobin and myoglobin) catalyze the enzymatic scavenging of NO and peroxynitrite in the presence of H 2 O 2 . Indeed, H 2 O 2 oxidizes some globins leading to the formation of water and of the heme-protein ferryl derivative, which, in turn, oxidizes NO and peroxynitrite leading to the formation of the globin ferric species, NO 2 2 , and NO 3 2 . Here, we hypothesize that NO, peroxynitrite, and H 2 O 2 are co-substrates for the peroxidase activity of some globins, this catalytic activity was reported in 1900 for the first time, even though the substrates have never been identified firmly up to now. The hemoglobin (Hb) superfamily includes several hemeproteins, generally referred to as globins, which are found in all kingdoms of living organisms (1, 2). Globin functions have been the subject of active debate, in addition to dioxygen transport and storage. Several functions have been proposed recently, including control of nitrogen monoxide levels, O 2 sensing, and dehaloperoxidase activity (3-15).Globins share physical, spectroscopic, and chemical similarities with peroxidases (16,17). In fact, as demonstrated first in 1900 (18), Hb reacts readily with hydrogen peroxide (H 2 O 2 ). In 1923, the peroxidase activity of Hb has been reported (19), and in 1938, the modulation of the peroxidase activity of Hb by haptoglobin has been demonstrated (20). The reaction of myoglobin (Mb) with H 2 O 2 , on the other hand, apparently was not considered until 1952 (21), and the ability of Mb to catalyze peroxide oxidation of substrates was not reported until 1955 (22). Upon reaction with H 2 O 2 , Mb and Hb form the cytotoxic ferryl derivative (heme-Fe(IV)¼ ¼O), which is similar to compound II formed by peroxidases (23, 24). Heme-Fe(IV)¼ ¼O is able to oxidize a wide range of reducing substrates, such as phenols and aromatic amines, even though substrate peroxidation by Hb and Mb is far less efficient than that of peroxidases (24, 25), ruling out the possibility that the potential peroxidase activity of Hb and Mb is exerted on this class of substrates under normal conditions.Here, we hypothesize that the capability of some globins (e.g., Hb and Mb) to form a compound II-like species under oxidative stress may be actually exploited to avoid the building up of NO and peroxynitrite, 1 which can be then identified as the 'true' substrates for the peroxidase activity of Hb and Mb.Heme-proteins share the ability of detoxifying nitrogen reactive species, for example, NO. Even though leukocyte peroxi- 1 The term peroxynitrite is used in the text to refer generically to both ONOO 2 and its conjugated acid HOONO (38).
