Abstract [en]
The functional importance of nitric oxide (NO) in the fields of immunology concerning its antimicrobial, anti-tumoral, anti-inflammatory, and immunosuppressive effects have made it inevitable to study its secretion from various cells. Nitrogen oxide synthase (NOS) is the enzyme responsible for synthesizing NO and its three isoforms function in a cell-dependent manner. NO is oxidized rapidly to Reactive nitrogen oxide species (RNOS) through which the roles of NO are being carried out. One of the major immune cells secreting NO is myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs). The function of these MDSCs in the suppression of T-cell proliferation as well as T-cell differentiation is found to be dependent on NO secretion. Apart from T-cell suppressive activity, NO is also known to interfere with natural killer (NK) cell functions. A convenient method to estimate NO secretion is by using Griess reagent named after Johann Peter Griess. In this method, NO reacts with the reagents to form a colored azo dye detectable using a microplate reader at a wavelength of 548 nm. In this chapter, we summarized the detailed method of estimating NO from MDSCs by the Griess method. © 2024 Elsevier Inc.
