2 GSNO and HEL cell endonucleosomal DNA cleavage
GSNO and HEL cell endonucleosomal DNA cleavage.(A) Autoradiographic analysis of total cellular DNA prepared from HEL cells after treatment with 100 μmol/L GSNO for different times and 3′-end labeled (1 μg DNA/lane). GSNO and HEL cell endonucleosomal DNA cleavage.(A) Autoradiographic analysis of total cellular DNA prepared from HEL cells after treatment with 100 μmol/L GSNO for different times and 3′-end labeled (1 μg DNA/lane). The characteristic endonucleosomal fragmentation of DNA into 185-bp multiples is visible as early as 30 minutes after treatment with 100 μmol/L GSNO. 1, Untreated HEL cells; 2, HEL cells treated with 100 μmol/L GSNO for 30 minutes; 3, for 1 hour; 4, for 2 hours; 5, for 3 hours; 6, for 4 hours; and 7, for 5 hours. (B) Autoradiographic analysis of total cellular DNA prepared from HEL cells after induction of endogenous iNOS, as described in “Materials and methods.” 1, Cytokine induction of iNOS; 2, cytokine induction of iNOS in the presence of L-NMMA.

3 GSNO or iNOS induction and Meg-01 TUNEL assay
GSNO or iNOS induction and Meg-01 TUNEL assay.(A) Untreated Meg-01 cells (YOYO-1 DNA stain; 40× magnification). GSNO or iNOS induction and Meg-01 TUNEL assay.(A) Untreated Meg-01 cells (YOYO-1 DNA stain; 40× magnification). (B) Meg-01 cells treated with 100 μmol/L GSNO showing TUNEL-positive cells (YOYO-1 DNA stain; 40× magnification). (C) Percentage apoptotic cells visible by TUNEL assay. To calculate the percentages in each case, 5 to 10 random fields were examined, and each bar graph on the plot represents the average of these experiments (*P < .05).

4 GSNO induction and HEL TUNEL assay
GSNO induction and HEL TUNEL assay.(A) HEL cells treated with cytokines to stimulate the expression of iNOS and TUNEL-positive cells (YOYO-1 DNA stain; 40× magnification). GSNO induction and HEL TUNEL assay.(A) HEL cells treated with cytokines to stimulate the expression of iNOS and TUNEL-positive cells (YOYO-1 DNA stain; 40× magnification). (B) HEL cells treated with cytokines to stimulate expression of iNOS and incubated with 100 μmol/L L-NMMA showing decreased TUNEL-positive cell staining (YOYO-1 DNA stain; 40× magnification). (C) Percentage of apoptotic cells that were visible by TUNEL assay. 5 to 10 random fields were examined to calculate the percentages in each case, and each bar in the plot represents the average of 3 experiments (*P < .05).
