The modulation of ferryl myoglobin formation and its oxidative effects on low density lipoproteins by nitric oxide

Abstract: This study has investigated the interactions between nitric oxide and haem protein radicals. The results demonstrate that nitric oxide interacts with activated ferrylmyoglobin species with reduction to metmyoglobin, but the extent and duration of the reduction depends on the relative concentrations of nitric oxide and hydrogen peroxide. Ferry1 myoglobin has a much greater relative potential for oxidising polyunsaturated fatty acid side chains in low density lipoproteins than in cell membranes. The peroxidative… Show more

“…Both species are strong oxidants, which may induce lipid and protein peroxidation. The heme to protein cross-linked form of myoglobin, generated from interaction of the ferryl heme with the radical, represents the more cytotoxic form than ferryl myoglobin and oxidizes free and membrane-bound lipids (38). Irrespective of this discussion, our current data show that myoglobin, via reduction of nitrite to NO • , attenuates the infarct size after I/R both ex vivo and in vivo.…”

“…In agreement with the hypothesis that NO is part of the system controlling Fe uptake in the first instance of exposure, we showed that NO content in DG was drastically decreased by day 2 of treatment. On the other hand, NO has previously been shown to inhibit lipid peroxidation in many biological systems (Dee et al, 1991;Kanner et al, 1991;Hogg et al, 1993;Rubbo et al, 1994;Gorbunov et al, 1995;Sharpe et al, 2003) through its ability of binding catalytically active Fe (Radi et al, 1995). Thus, the decreased NO content in DG measured by day 2 of exposure to excess Fe could also play a role in the increase in lipid peroxidation, as previously proposed for other biological systems (Radi et al, 1995).…”
