Pulmonary artery endothelial cells (PAEC) were exposed to normoxia or hypoxia (0% O2-95% N2-5% CO2) in the presence and absence of calpain inhibitor I or calpeptin, after which endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) activity and protein content were assayed. Exposure to hypoxia decreased eNOS activity but not eNOS protein content. Both calpain inhibitor I and calpeptin prevented the hypoxic decrease of eNOS activity. Incubation of calpain with total membrane preparations of PAEC caused dose-dependent decreases in eNOS activity independent of changes in eNOS protein content. Exposure of PAEC to hypoxia also caused time-dependent decreases of heat shock protein 90 (HSP90) that were prevented by calpain inhibitor I and calpeptin. Moreover, the HSP90 content in anti-eNOS antibody-induced immunoprecipitates from hypoxic PAEC lysates was reduced, and repletion of HSP90 reversed the decrease of eNOS activity in these immunoprecipitates. Incubation of PAEC with a specific inhibitor of HSP90 (geldanamycin) mimicked the hypoxic decrease of eNOS activity. These results indicate that the hypoxia-induced reduction in eNOS activity in PAEC is due to a decrease in HSP90 caused by calpain activation.
