Angiogenesis, the development of new capillaries from pre-existing vessels, requires the coordinate activation of endothelial cells, which migrate and proliferate to form functional vessels. Endothelial dysfunction and decreased nitric oxide bioavailability may underscore the impairment of angiogenesis. As such, the delivery of exogenous NO is an attractive therapeutic option that has been used to therapeutic angiogenesis. In this paper, a novel group of hybrid nitric oxide-releasing chrysin derivatives was synthesized. The results indicated that all these chrysin derivatives exhibited promotion of endothelial migration and tubulogenesis in vitro as well as stimulation angiogenesis in vivo.Furthermore, all compounds released NO upon incubation with phosphate buffer at pH 7.4 and enhanced VEGF secretion and VEGF mRNA expression of endothelial cells. These hybrid ester NO donor prodrugs offer a potential drug design concept for the development of therapeutic or preventive agents for angiogenesis deficiency due to ischemic diseases.

The gastric damage associated with hemorrhagic shock appears to occur, at least in part, through neutrophil-dependent mechanisms. Nitric oxide (NO)-releasing derivatives of aspirin have been shown to spare the gastrointestinal tract of injury. As NO can inhibit neutrophil adherence, it is possible that such a derivative of aspirin (NCX-4016) would exert inhibitory effects on neutrophil adherence and therefore be capable of protecting the stomach against shock-induced gastric damage. This hypothesis was tested in this study. Oral administration of NCX-4016 or glyceryl trinitrate or depletion of circulating neutrophils with antineutrophil serum significantly reduced the extent of gastric damage induced by hemorrhagic shock, whereas aspirin had no effect. NCX-4016 and antineutrophil serum pretreatment resulted in significant preservation of gastric blood flow during the shock period. Moreover, NCX-4016, but not aspirin, was capable of inhibiting N-formyl-Met-Leu-Phe-induced leukocyte adherence to postcapillary mesenteric venules. These results suggest that an NO-releasing aspirin derivative reduces the susceptibility of the stomach to shock-induced damage through inhibitory effects on neutrophil adherence to the vascular endothelium.
