The addition of nitric oxide (NO), in the form of either donor
compounds or nitric oxide gas, inhibits hormone-stimulated cAMP
accumulation in N18TG2 cells. Hormone receptors and Gs are not targets of NO because forskolin-stimulated cAMP accumulation is
also inhibited. The inhibitory effect of NO is not altered by
pretreatment of cells with pertussis toxin, indicating that Gi is not mediating the effect of NO. cAMP accumulation in
these cells is not altered by cell incubation with Ca++
ionophore or calmidazolium, indicating that calmodulin is not the
target for NO. Experiments also rule out changes in phosphodiesterase or cGMP as mediators of the effect of NO. Cell incubation with superoxide dismutase in the presence or absence of catalase indicate that nitric oxide is the reactive species. The inhibitory action of
nitric oxide is readily reversed, allowing full recovery of hormone and
forskolin stimulation within 20 min of incubation in the absence of
nitric oxide. The sum of the data indicate that NO targets either the
adenylyl cyclase itself, or a regulatory component distinct from G
proteins or calmodulin, to inhibit activation of the enzyme.
