Plasma proteins modified by tyrosine nitration in acute respiratory distress syndrome

Abstract: The present study identifies proteins modified by nitration in the plasma of patients with ongoing acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). The proteins modified by nitration in ARDS were revealed by microsequencing and specific antibody detection to be ceruloplasmin, transferrin, alpha(1)-protease inhibitor, alpha(1)-antichymotrypsin, and beta-chain fibrinogen. Exposure to nitrating agents did not deter the chymotrypsin-inhibiting activity of alpha(1)-antichymotrypsin. However, the ferroxidase activity of … Show more

“…Protein nitration can have a significant impact on the structural and functional integrity of the proteome (Sohal et al 2000;Murray et al 2003;Greenacre and Ischiropoulos 2001;Adachi et al 2002;Castro et al 1994;Gole et al 2000;Ischiropoulos 2003). Specific brain regions are especially vulnerable to oxidative stress as a result of elevated free radical levels and insufficient antioxidant defenses (Coyle and Puttfarcken 1993;Sohal et al 1994).…”

“…The pathogenic mechanisms of this disease are not well understood, but the role of reactive oxygen species and ·NO has gained increasing attention. Previous studies show that NOS2 expression and ·NO end products are increased in lungs of patients with ARDS (25,32). Whether ·NO has a beneficial role or participates in the mechanisms of injury is still debated (24).…”

“…Nitric oxide production, nitrosative stress and protein nitration increases in both human ARDS and animal models of ARDS [29,[38][39][40][41][42]. Although the BAL levels of nitrite and nitrate did not predict ARDS development in critically ill humans at risk for ARDS, high BAL levels in ARDS patients were associated with worse outcomes and increased mortality [29].…”
