Resumen:
Mitochondria require nitric oxide (NO) to exert a delicate control of metabolic rate as well as to regulate
life functions, cell cycle activation and arrest, and apoptosis. All activities depend on the matrical NO
steady state concentration as provided by mitochondrial (mtNOS) and cytosolic sources (eNOS) and
reduced by forming superoxide anion and H2O2 and a low peroxynirite (ONOO) yield. We review herein
the biochemical pathways involved in the control of NO mitochondrial level and its biological and physiological
significance in hormone effects and aging. At high NO, the cost of this physiological regulation is
that ONOO excess will lead to nitrosation/nitration and oxidization of mitochondrial and cell proteins
and lipids. The disruption of NO modulation of mitochondrial respiration supports then, a platform for
prevalent neurodegenerative and metabolic diseases.
