The expression of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) is a critical factor in both normal physiological functions and the pathogenesis of disease. This study was undertaken to determine the m olecular m echanism by which nitric oxide (NO) exerts negative feedback regulation on iNOS gene expression. Isolated rat hepatocytes stimulated with cytokines exhibited a marked increase in NO production as well as iNOS mRNA and protein levels, which were significantly reduced by pretreatment of the NO donors S-nitroso-N-acetyl-D,L-penicillamine (SNAP) and V-PYRRO/NO. This effect of SNAP was inhibited when NO was scavenged using red blood cells. Pretreatment with oxidized SNAP, 8-Br-cGMP, NO2 -, or NO3 - did not suppress the cytokine-induced NO production. Moreover, LPS/ IFN- γ -stimulated RAW264.7 cells, which produce endogenous NO, expressed lower levels of iNOS, IL-1β, IL-6 and TNF-α mRNAs, without changes in their mRNA half-lives, than those in the presence of the iNOS inhibitor NG-monomethyl- L-arginine. The iNOS gene transcription rate exhibited an 18-fold increase after cytokine stimulation, which was significantly inhibited by SNAP pretreatment. SNAP also blocked cytokineinduced increase in NF-κB activation, iNOS promoter activity, nuclear translocation of cytosolic NF-κB p65 subunit, and IκBα degradation, which correlated with its inhibitory effect on phosphorylation and ubiquitination of IκB. These data indicate that NO down-regulates iNOS gene expression and NO production by inhibiting the post-translational processes of IκBα thereby preventing NF-κB activation. These results identify a novel negative feedback mechanism whereby NO down-regulates iNOS gene expression.
