To clarify the mechanisms of nitric oxide (NO)-induced cell death in human neuronal cells, we examined effects of NO donors such as sodium nitroprusside (SNP) and S-nitroso-N-acetylpenicillamine (SNAP) on activities of glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH) and poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) in human neuroblastoma cell line, SH-SY5Y. SNP-induced [32P]ADP-ribosylation of 113-kDa and 37-kDa proteins in SH-SY5Y cells. Treatment with PARP inhibitors such as 3-aminobenzamide and 1,5-isoquinolinediol partially prevented SNAP-induced cell death of SH-SY5Y. In purified GAPDH (37-kDa protein), SNP- and SNAP-induced enhancement of [32P]ADP-ribosylation, and inhibition of GAPDH activity. These results suggest that NO-induced cell death in human neuroblastoma SH-SY5Y cells possibly involves in covalent modifications such as ADP-ribosylation in PARP and GAPDH.
