Cyclooxygenase-2, Asymmetric Dimethylarginine, and the Cardiovascular Hazard From Nonsteroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs (Murine and human plasma quantitative L-arginine and methylarginines UPLC-MS/MS assay)


ABSTRACT:

BACKGROUND: Large-scale, placebo-controlled trials established that nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs confer a cardiovascular hazard: this has been attributed to depression of cardioprotective products of cyclooxygenase (COX)-2, especially prostacyclin. An alternative mechanism by which nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs might constrain cardioprotection is by enhancing the formation of methylarginines in the kidney that would limit the action of nitric oxide throughout the vasculature.

METHODS: Targeted and untargeted metabolomics were used to investigate the effect of COX-2 deletion or inhibition in mice and in osteoarthritis patients exposed to nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs on the l-arginine/nitric oxide pathway.

RESULTS: Analysis of the plasma and renal metabolome was performed in postnatal tamoxifen-inducible Cox-2 knockout mice, which exhibit normal renal function and blood pressure. This revealed no changes in arginine and methylarginines compared with their wild-type controls. Moreover, the expression of genes in the l-arginine/nitric oxide pathway was not altered in the renal medulla or cortex of tamoxifen inducible Cox-2 knockout mice. Therapeutic concentrations of the selective COX-2 inhibitors, rofecoxib, celecoxib, and parecoxib, none of which altered basal blood pressure or renal function as reflected by plasma creatinine, failed to elevate plasma arginine and methylarginines in mice. Finally, plasma arginine or methylarginines were not altered in osteoarthritis patients with confirmed exposure to nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs that inhibit COX-1 and COX-2. By contrast, plasma asymmetrical dimethylarginine was increased in mice infused with angiotensin II sufficient to elevate blood pressure and impair renal function. Four weeks later, blood pressure, plasma creatinine, and asymmetrical dimethylarginine were restored to normal levels. The increase in asymmetrical dimethylarginine in response to infusion with angiotensin II in celecoxib-treated mice was also related to transient impairment of renal function.

CONCLUSIONS: Plasma methylarginines are not altered by COX-2 deletion or inhibition but rather are elevated coincident with renal compromise.
