Singlet oxygen-dependent and –independent activity of NO-acetyl salicylic acid. 12,500 MKN-45 cells were treated with increasing concentrations of acetyl salicylic acid (ASA) (A) or NO-acetyl salicylic acid (NCX 4040) (B) in the absence and presence of 2 mM histidine (HIS) or 100 µM AEBSF. The percentages of apoptotic cells were determined after 3.5 h. Statistical analysis: (A) Apoptosis induction by acetylsalicylic acid (1-40 µg/ml) as well as its inhibition by histidine were highly significant (p<0.001). AEBSF caused no significant inhibitory effect. (B) The shift of the concentration-response curve of NCX 4040 compared to acetylsalicylic acid (A) was highly significant, as were the effects of histidine and AEBSF (p<0.001).
