Nitric oxide (*NO) was shown to stimulate the proteasomal function and the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway and to ameliorate endothelial apoptotic signaling induced by oxidants. Understanding the regulatory mechanisms by which *NO stimulates proteasomes and affords cytoprotection in endothelial cells has therapeutic implications, as many vascular diseases are characterized by a deficiency in *NO. Here we report that *NO/cGMP/cAMP-induced immunoproteasome subunit expression is responsible for the increased proteasomal activities. Cells pretreated with protein kinase G and protein kinase A inhibitors markedly attenuated *NO-dependent proteasome activation. Results show that the *NO/cGMP/cAMP signaling mechanism enhanced the phosphorylation of the transcription factor cAMP-response element-binding protein, elevated the cAMP-response element-promoter activity and induced the expression of immunoproteasomal subunits (LMP2 and LMP7). *NO-dependent proteasomal activity was abrogated in cells transfected with antisense LMP2 and LMP7 oligonucleotides. Lower levels of LMP2 and LMP7 were detected in aorta of iNOS(-/-) mice compared to wild-type controls, suggesting that endogenous production of *NO is important in the basal regulation of immunoproteasome. The *NO/cGMP/cAMP signaling pathway mitigates transferrin-iron-mediated oxidative stress and apoptosis through induction of immunoproteasomes. These results provide new insights on the regulatory mechanisms by which the *NO-mediated immunoproteasome signaling pathway affords cytoprotection in endothelial cells.
