Mutant Cu/Zn-Superoxide - Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis
- Destabilizes Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor mRNA and Downregulates Its Expression
- VEGF posttranscriptional processing critically reduces the level of this neuroprotective growth factor and accelerates the neurodegenerative process in ALS.
- RNA stabilization represents an important posttranscriptional control point for the upregulation of VEGF and other growth factor expression, and may serve as a survival pathway in response to cellular stress (Ross, 1995; Brennan and Steitz, 2001; Guhaniyogi and Brewer, 2001).
- Hypoxia, inflammatory cytokines, and oxidative stress, for example, all of which have been linked to motor neuron death in ALS (Cleveland and Rothstein, 2001; Ischiropoulos and Beckman, 2003; Shaw, 2005) are strong activators of RNA stabilization.
- A dysfunction in this pathway may therefore impair the intrinsic defense of a cell against stress.
- Mutant SOD1 protein destabilizes VEGF mRNA
- Markedly downregulates protein production.
- Mediated through the adenylate/uridylate-rich elements (AREs) in the VEGF 3'-untranslated region (UTR), where an aberrant ribonucleoprotein (RNP) complex is formed in the presence of mutant SOD1.
- “toxic” gain of function of mutant SOD1 that may promote motor neuron death.

NOS Uncoupling
Low BH4 bioavailability relative to NOS or BH2
- Oxygen activation is “uncoupled” from L-arginine oxidation
- NOS produces superoxide (O -2 ) instead of NO
- NOS-derived superoxide reacts with NO to produce peroxynitrite (ONOO-)
- A highly reactive anion that rapidly oxidizes BH4 and propagates NOS uncoupling
- BH4 depletion and NOS uncoupling contribute to
- Overload-induced heart failure
- Hypertension,
- Ischemia/reperfusion injury
- Atrial fibrillation
L-arginine depletion
- Also promote uncoupling
Methylarginine accumulation
- Also promote uncoupling
S-glutathionylation of NOS
