N2 - Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are produced in NIH3T3 fibroblasts during hypotonic stress, and H(2)O(2) potentiates the concomitant release of the organic osmolyte taurine (Lambert IH. J Membr Biol 192: 19-32, 2003). The increase in ROS production [5-(and-6)-carboxy-2', 7'-dichlorodihydrofluorescein diacetate fluorescence] is detectable after a reduction in the extracellular osmolarity from 335 mosM (isotonic) to 300 mosM and reaches a maximal value after a reduction to 260 mosM. The swelling-induced ROS production is reduced by the flavoprotein inhibitor diphenylene iodonium chloride (25 microM) but is unaffected by the nitric oxide synthase inhibitor N omega-nitro-l-arginine methyl ester, indicating that the volume-sensitive ROS production is NADPH oxidase dependent. NIH3T3 cells express the NADPH oxidase components: p22 phox, a NOX4 isotype; p47 phox; and p67 phox (real-time PCR). Exposure to the Ca2+-mobilizing agonist ATP (10 microM) potentiates the release of taurine but has no effect on ROS production under hypotonic conditions. On the other hand, addition of the protein kinase C (PKC) activator phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA, 100 nM) or the lipid messenger lysophosphatidic acid (LPA, 10 nM) potentiates the swelling-induced taurine release as well as the ROS production. Overexpression of Rac1 or p47 phox or p47 phox knockdown [small interfering (si)RNA] had no effect on the swelling-induced ROS production or taurine release. NOX4 knockdown (siRNA) impairs the increase in the ROS production and the concomitant taurine release following osmotic exposure. It is suggested that a NOX4 isotype plus p22 phox account for the swelling-induced increase in the ROS production in NIH3T3 cells and that the oxidase activity is potentiated by PKC and LPA but not by Ca2+.
