It is generally thought to freely diffuse through cell membranes without need for a specific transporter. The water channel aquaporin-1 transports low molecular weight gases in addition to water and is expressed in cells that produce or are the targets of NO. Consequently, we tested the hypothesis that aquaporin-1 transports NO. In cells expressing aquaporin-1, NO permeability correlated with water permeability. NO transport was reduced by 71% by HgCl2, an inhibitor of aquaporin-1. Transport of NO by aquaporin-1 saturated at 3 micromol/L NO and displayed a K(1/2) (the concentration of NO that produces half of the maximum transport rate) of 0.54 micromol/L. Reconstitution of purified aquaporin-1 into lipid vesicles increased NO influx by 316%. In endothelial cells, lowering aquaporin-1 expression with a small interfering RNA (siRNA) blunted aquaporin-1 expression by 54% and NO release by 44%. We conclude that NO transport by aquaporin-1 may allow cells to control intracellular NO levels and effects. NO transport by aquaporin-1 may play a role in central nervous system, vascular and renal function, and consequently blood pressure. Disruption of NO transport by aquaporin-1 offers an alternate cause for diseases currently explained by inadequate NO bioavailability."xsd:string |
