Research Abstract |
To demonstrate the physiological significance of the metabolic pathways for asymmetric dimethylarginine (ADMA) in central nervous system, we examined the immunohistochemical localization of ADMA metabolizing enzymes, PRMT1 and DDAH1 and nNOS in the rat spinal cord and the other brain regions. Western blot analyses showed that PRMT1 and DDAH1 were widely distributed. The immunohistochemical analyses showed that these enzymes colocalized in a lot of neurons. In the cortex and hypothalamus, almost all nNOS neurons had PRMT1 and DDAH1. Additionally, we surveyed unknown arginine methylated proteins from rat brain by proteomic analysis and identified fructose 1,6-bisphosphate aldolase C (FBAC) as a novel ADMA-containing protein. These findings suggest that the PRMT/DDAH/NOS axis is play a part of homeostatic function in central nervous system.
