N ω-nitro-l-arginine inhibits inducible HSP-70 via Ca2+, PKC, and PKA in human intestinal epithelial T84 cells

N ω-nitro-l-arginine inhibits inducible HSP-70 via Ca2+, PKC, and PKA in human intestinal... Abstract The nitric oxide (NO) synthase inhibitor N ω -nitro- l -arginine ( l -NNA) inhibits heat stress (HS)-induced NO production and the inducible 70-kDa heat shock protein (HSP-70i) in many rodent organs. We used human intestinal epithelial T84 cells to characterize the inhibitory effect of l -NNA on HS-induced HSP-70i expression. Intracellular Ca 2+ concentration (Ca 2+ i ) was measured using fura-2, and protein kinase C (PKC), and PKA activities were determined. HS increased HSP-70i mRNA and protein in T84 cells exposed to 45°C for 10 min and allowed to recover for 6 h. l -NNA treatment for 1 h before HS inhibited the induction of HSP-70i mRNA and protein, with an IC 50 of 0.0471 ± 0.0007 μM. Because the HS-induced increase in HSP-70i mRNA and protein is Ca 2+ dependent, we measured Ca 2+ i after treating cells with l -NNA. l -NNA at 100 μM significantly decreased resting Ca 2+ i . Likewise, treatment with 1 μM GF-109203X or H-89 (inhibitors of PKC and PKA, respectively) for 30 min also significantly decreased Ca 2+ i and inhibited HS-induced increase in HSP-70i. GF-109203X- or H-89-treated cells failed to respond to l -NNA by further decreasing Ca 2+ i and HSP-70i. l -NNA effectively blocked heat shock factor-1 (HSF1) translocation from the cytosol to the nucleus, a process requiring PKC phosphorylation. These results suggest that l -NNA inhibits HSP-70i by reducing Ca 2+ i and decreasing PKC and PKA activity, thereby blocking HSF1 translocation from the cytosol to the nucleus. heat nitric oxide heat shock protein protein kinase C protein kinase A Footnotes This work was supported by Department of Defense Research Area Management II Science Technology Objective C and R.
