- W2094162634 abstract "The synthesis of nitric oxide (NO) is limited by the intracellular availability of L-arginine. Here we show that stimulation of NMDA receptors promotes an increase of intracellular L-arginine which supports an increase in the production of NO. Although L-[3H]arginine uptake measured in cultured chick retina cells incubated in the presence of cycloheximide (CHX, a protein synthesis inhibitor) was inhibited approximately 75% at equilibrium, quantitative thin-layer chromatography analysis showed that free intracellular L-[3H]arginine was six times higher in CHX-treated than in control cultures. Extracellular L-[3H]citrulline levels increased threefold in CHX-treated groups, an effect blocked by NG-nitro-L-arginine, a NO synthase (NOS) inhibitor. NMDA promoted a 40% increase of free intracellular L-[3H]arginine in control cultures, an effect blocked by the NMDA antagonist 2-amino 5-phosphonovaleric acid. In parallel, NMDA promoted a reduction of 40-50% in the incorporation of 35[S]methionine or L-[3H]arginine into proteins. Western blot analysis revealed that NMDA stimulates the phosphorylation of eukaryotic elongation factor 2 (eEF2, a factor involved in protein translation), an effect inhibited by (+)-5-methyl-10,11-dihydro-5H-dibenzo[a,d]cyclohepten-5,10-imine maleate (MK801). In conclusion, we have shown that the stimulation of NMDA receptors promotes an inhibition of protein synthesis and a consequent increase of an intracellular L-arginine pool available for the synthesis of NO. This effect seems to be mediated by activation of eEF2 kinase, a calcium/calmodulin-dependent enzyme which specifically phosphorylates and blocks eEF2. The results raise the possibility that NMDA receptor activation stimulates two different calmodulin-dependent enzymes (eEF2 kinase and NOS) reinforcing local NO production by increasing precursor availability together with NOS catalytic activity." @default.
