Why do we care about NO?
NO is involved in:
1. CNS function and cognition2. Cardiac contractility
3. Peripheral vascular resistance4. Respiration
5. Gut motility and ion absorption6. Renal perfusion and transport
7. Reproduction
![Page 5: The truth about the movement of NO across cell membranes Jeffrey Garvin](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022051623/56815854550346895dc5ad61/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Properties of NO
1. It is small.
2. It is non-polar.
3. It is RELATIVELY lipophilic with a partition coefficient of about 5.
4. It is a gas.
5. Its reactive (different from O2 and CO2).

There have been no direct measurements of the NO permeability of any cell membrane!!!
There has been one calculation which is widely cited. This value of 76 cm/s was calculated based onsteady-state measurements of NO within an artificial membrane using 2 mM NO.
![Page 10: The truth about the movement of NO across cell membranes Jeffrey Garvin](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022051623/56815854550346895dc5ad61/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Free diffusion creates several problems:1. Free diffusion is relatively slow;2. The amount of NO trapped in the membrane is relatively large;3. If NO is only around transiently, the
membrane could act as a trap;4. There is no control over where NO goes; 5. There is no way to regulate NO release;6. There is little control over NO entry.
As you have heard today “gas channels” including aquaporin-1(AQP-1) has been
shown to transport CO2 and other gases.

If our hypothesis is correct:1. NO permeability (PNO) should correlate with water permeability (Pf).
2. Increasing AQP-1expression should increase NO flux.
3. Inhibitors of AQP-1 should reduce NO flux.
4. NO flux should be saturable.
5. Purified AQP-1 should transport NO.

AQP-3 and AQP-4 may transport NO. More data are required.

How does NO transport by AQP-1 compare to diffusion through the bilayer in “real” cells?
Is it physiologically significant?

The reduction in Ach-induced relaxation in AQP-1 -/-mice is NOT due to:
1.Less NOS 3. There is more in AQP-1 -/- mice than WT.
2. Defective signaling down-stream of NO. Donors that release NO inside VSMCs and cGMP relax rings from AQP-1 -/- mice the same as WT.
![Page 37: The truth about the movement of NO across cell membranes Jeffrey Garvin](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022051623/56815854550346895dc5ad61/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
The reduction in Ach-induced relaxation in AQP-1 -/-mice could be due to:
1. Reduced NO efflux out of endothelial cells; and/or
2. Reduced NO influx into vascular smooth muscle cells.

We are trying to show that the reduction in NO transport by AQP-1 is physiologically relevant in vivo by showing that total peripheral resistance does not decrease in response to acetylcholine in these mice as much as wild type mice
BUT
it seems that these mice have compensation mechanism including increased prostaglandin production and NOS expression that has frustrated our attempts thus far.
![Page 43: The truth about the movement of NO across cell membranes Jeffrey Garvin](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022051623/56815854550346895dc5ad61/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
Conclusion1. AQP-1 transports NO.
2. Transport of NO by AQP-1 occurs faster than by diffusion through the bilayer by about a factor of 2.
3. Transport of NO by AQP-1 appears to be physiologically significant.
4. Reduced Ach-dependent relaxation of aortic rings from AQP-1 -/- mice is due to both reduced efflux out of endothelial cells and reduced influx into vascular smooth muscle cells.
