Nitric oxide (NO) is implicated in apoptosis and has both cytotoxic and cytoprotective effects. Exogenous NO induced the death of PC12 and HeLa cells via a process showing features of both apoptosis and necrosis, with chromatin condensation, nuclear compaction, and mitochondrial swelling. Activation of caspases was not observed during NO-induced cell death. In addition, cell death was not inhibited by peptide caspase inhibitors or by expression of p35, a baculovirus-encoded caspase inhibitor, indicating that NO-induced cell death was independent of caspases. NO-induced cell death was enhanced by Bax expression in a caspase-independent manner and prevented by the anti-cell death protein Bcl-2. Although Bcl-2 has previously been shown to prevent cell death by inhibiting caspase activation, these results indicate that it can also prevent cell death via a caspase-independent mechanism.
