Differential gene expression in retinoic acid-induced differentiation of acute promyelocytic leukemia cells, NB4 and HL-60 cells

Acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) is characterized by a specific chromosome translocation t(15;17), which results in the fusion of the promyelocytic leukemia gene (PML) and retinoic acid receptor alpha gene (RARalpha). APL can be effectively treated with the cell differentiation inducer all-trans retinoic acid (ATRA). NB4 cells, an acute promyelocytic leukemia cell line, have the t(15;17) translocation and differentiate in response to ATRA, whereas HL-60 cells lack this chromosomal translocation, even after differentiation by ATRA. To identify changes in the gene expression patterns of promyelocytic leukemia cells during differentiation, we compared the gene expression profiles in NB4 and HL-60 cells with and without ATRA treatment using a cDNA microarray containing 10,000 human genes. NB4 and HL-60 cells were treated with ATRA (10(-6)M) and total RNA was extracted at various time points (3, 8, 12, 24, and 48h). Cell differentiation was evaluated for cell morphology changes and CD11b expression. PML/RARalpha degradation was studied by indirect immunofluoresence with polyclonal PML antibodies. Typical morphologic and immunophenotypic changes after ATRA treatment were observed both in NB4 and HL-60 cells. The cDNA microarray identified 119 genes that were up-regulated and 17 genes that were down-regulated in NB4 cells, while 35 genes were up-regulated and 36 genes were down-regulated in HL60 cells. Interestingly, we did not find any common gene expression profiles regulated by ATRA in NB4 and HL-60 cells, even though the granulocytic differentiation induced by ATRA was observed in both cell lines. These findings suggest that the molecular mechanisms and genes involved in ATRA-induced differentiation of APL cells may be different and cell type specific. Further studies will be needed to define the important molecular pathways involved in granulocytic differentiation by ATRA in APL cells.     

Retinoic acid-specific induction of a protein kinase C isoform during differentiation of HL-60 cells.

Human promyelocytic leukemia cells (HL-60) were treated with several differentiation inducers, then the changes in the activity of cytosolic protein kinase C (PKC) isoforms were examined by hydroxylapatite chromatography and the species of the isoforms were determined immunologically. In three undifferentiated HL-60 cell lines examined, PKC alpha and beta isoforms were present, but PKC gamma isoform was not detected. When the cells were induced by dimethylsulfoxide, dibutyryl cAMP, or nicotinamide to differentiate into granulocytes, these two PKC isoforms each increased to about 2- to 3-fold. When retinoic acid was used as the inducer, in addition to PKC alpha and beta, a third PKC isoform appeared. This isoform was clearly distinct from rat PKC alpha, beta, and gamma, immunologically. This isoform showed a distinctly lower Ca(2+)-requirement (3 microM) than that of PKC alpha or beta (100 microM) and was more dependent on cardiolipin and phosphatidylethanolamine, compared with PKC alpha, beta, and gamma. These results suggest that while the increases in the activities of PKC alpha and beta isoforms are common in the differentiation program initiated by several inducers, including retinoic acid, the emergence of an unclassified PKC isoform is a retinoic acid-specific process.     

Proliferating or differentiating stimuli act on different lipid-dependent signaling pathways in nuclei of human leukemia cells

Previous results have shown that the human promyelocytic leukemia HL-60 cell line responds to either proliferating or differentiating stimuli. When these cells are induced to proliferate, protein kinase C (PKC)-beta II migrates toward the nucleus, whereas when they are exposed to differentiating agents, there is a nuclear translocation of the alpha isoform of PKC. As a step toward the elucidation of the early intranuclear events that regulate the proliferation or the differentiation process, we show that in the HL-60 cells, a proliferating stimulus (i.e., insulin-like growth factor-I [IGF-I]) increased nuclear diacylglycerol (DAG) production derived from phosphatidylinositol (4,5) bisphosphate, as indicated by the inhibition exerted by 1-O-octadeyl-2-O-methyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine and U-73122 (1-[6((17 beta-3-methoxyestra-1,3,5(10)-trien-17-yl)amino)hexyl]-1H-pyrrole-2,5-dione), which are pharmacological inhibitors of phosphoinositide-specific phospholipase C. In contrast, when HL-60 cells were induced to differentiate along the granulocytic lineage by dimethyl sulfoxide, we observed a rise in the nuclear DAG mass, which was sensitive to either neomycin or propranolol, two compounds with inhibitory effect on phospholipase D (PLD)-mediated DAG generation. In nuclei of dimethyl sulfoxide-treated HL-60 cells, we observed a rise in the amount of a 90-kDa PLD, distinct from PLD1 or PLD2. When a phosphatidylinositol (4,5) bisphosphate-derived DAG pool was generated in the nucleus, a selective translocation of PKC-beta II occurred. On the other hand, nuclear DAG derived through PLD, recruited PKC-alpha to the nucleus. Both of these PKC isoforms were phosphorylated on serine residues. These results provide support for the proposal that in the HL-60 cell nucleus there are two independently regulated sources of DAG, both of which are capable of acting as the driving force that attracts to this organelle distinct, DAG-dependent PKC isozymes. Our results assume a particular significance in light of the proposed use of pharmacological inhibitors of PKC-dependent biochemical pathways for the therapy of cancer disease.     

Expression of leukocyte adherence-related glycoproteins during differentiation of HL-60 promyelocytic leukemia cells

We used the HL-60 human promyelocytic leukemia cell line to analyze the surface expression of a family of adherence-related leukocyte surface antigens during myeloid differentiation. These antigens are composed of discrete alpha subunits, designated alpha L, alpha M, and alpha X, that are each noncovalently associated with a common beta subunit. Monoclonal antibodies directed against the individual subunits served as markers in both indirect immunofluorescence studies and immunoprecipitations from HL-60 cells differentiated preferentially towards mature granulocytes (DMSO, retinoic acid) or monocyte/macrophages (PMA, vitamin D3). In undifferentiated HL-60 cells, the alpha L and alpha X subunits were constitutively expressed, whereas the alpha M subunit was not. Differentiation of HL-60 cells along the granulocytic pathway with DMSO resulted in a marked increase in alpha M and minimal increases in alpha L and alpha X. The phenotypic expression of these antigens on DMSO-treated HL-60 cells closely resembled that on normal circulating PMN. Differentiation along the monocyte/macrophage pathway when using PMA or vitamin D3 resulted in major increases in alpha L and alpha X expression, as well as alpha M. These changes resulted in a surface phenotype characteristic of that present on human monocyte-derived macrophages. Triggering of undifferentiated HL-60 cells with PMA caused no increase in subunit expression, whereas stimulation of DMSO-differentiated HL-60 cells with PMA produced more than a 1.5-fold enhancement of both the alpha M and alpha X subunits, and stimulation of human PMN with PMA increased the surface expression of alpha M more than fourfold and alpha X subunit twofold. Stimulation with PMA produced no change in expression of the alpha L subunit in any of the three cell populations. These results indicate that the alpha subunits of this glycoprotein family can be selectively regulated during in vitro differentiation of a human promyelocytic leukemia cell line. Second, DMSO-differentiated HL-60 cells and human PMN possessed an intracellular pool of alpha M and alpha X, but not alpha L, that could be translocated to the surface. Thus, despite structural and functional relationships among the alpha subunits in this glycoprotein family, they undergo disparate surface expression and intracellular regulation during differentiation.     

Monocytic differentiation of HL-60 cells is characterized by the nuclear translocation of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase and of definite phosphatidylinositol-specific phospholipase C isoforms.

Immunochemical and immunocytochemical data indicate that nuclei of HL-60 cells contain different enzymes involved in the phosphoinositide cycle, such as PI 3-K and the phosphatidylinositol-specific PLC isoforms beta3, gamma1 and gamma2. These enzymes translocate differently to the nuclear fraction when HL-60 cells are treated with differentiating doses of vitamin D3: PI 3-K translocated progressively to the nucleus in parallel with full differentiation until 96 hours. PLC beta3 increased until 72 hours of treatment and then lowered its intranuclear amount and PLC gamma1 was unchanged at all the examined times. PLC gamma2 nuclear translocation increased progressively until 96 hours of vitamin D3 administration. A fourth PLC isozyme, beta2, present in the cytoplasm of untreated cells, translocates to the cytoplasm after vitamin D3 addition and reaches the highest concentration at the end of monocytic differentiation. Terminal monocytic differentiation was characterized at the nuclear level by high levels of PI 3-K and PLC gamma2 and by the novel expression of PLC beta2. We then observed that the xi isoform of PKC, constitutively present in nuclei of HL-60 cells, translocated to the nucleus when cells were induced to differentiate along the monocytic lineage, but the nuclear translocation of PKC xi was blocked as a consequence of PI 3-K inhibition by Wortmannin. These findings indicate that the main components of the noncanonical and canonical inositol lipid signal transduction pathways, including PI 3-K, PLC beta2 and beta3, PLC gamma2, undergo nuclear translocation and may therefore play a relevant role during monocytic differentiation at the nuclear level. Furthermore, PKC xi nuclear translocation appears to be related to PI 3-K activity.     

Alterations in glycosyltransferases during myeloid and monocytoid differentiation of HL-60 cells.

HL-60, a human promyelocytic leukemia cell line, can be differentiated to myeloid lineage by all- trans retinoic acid (ATRA), dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO) and n -butyric acid (n -BA), or to monocytoid(monocytic/macrophagic) lineage by phorbol-12-myristate-13-acetate (PMA) and ganglioside GM(3). The activity alterations of N -acetylglucosaminyltransferase III and V (GnT-III, GnT-V) as well as alpha-1,6-fucosyl-tranferase (alpha1,6 Fuc T) were studied during the differentiation of HL-60 cells by the above-mentioned five inducers using the fluorescence (PA)-labeled glycan-HPLC method for GnT assays and biotin-labeled glycan-LCA affinity chromatography combined with the HRP-avidin colorimetric method for alpha1,6 Fuc T assay. It was observed that after 3 days, all three enzymes decreased in HL-60 cells induced by 1 micromol/l ATRA and 0.6 mmol/l n-BA, while GnT-III and alpha1,6 Fuc T increased, but GnT-V still decreased after induction by 1% DMSO. GnT-V and alpha1,6 Fuc T declined, while GnT-III was elevated after induction by 0.1 micromol/l PMA for 3 days. In contrast, GnT-III increased after the treatment with 50 micromol/l GM(3)for 3 or 6 days, but GnT-V was not appreciably changed and alpha1,6 FucT was elevated after 6 days of GM(3)treatment. It may be concluded that the decrease of GnT-V is the common change in myeloid differentiation and the increase of GnT-III is the general alteration in monocytoid differentiation. The changes in the activities of glycosyltransferases were consistent with the structural changes in surface N -glycans previously found in our laboratory, i.e. that the antennary number of N -glycans decreased during myeloid differentiation by ATRA, and the amount of bisecting GlcNAc in N -glycans increased during monocytoid differentiation by PMA.     

Inhibition of H2 histamine receptor-mediated cation channel opening by protein kinase C in human promyelocytic cells

Histamine, through H(2) receptors, triggers a prominent rise in intracellular free Ca(2+) concentration ([Ca(2+)](i)) in addition to an elevation of cAMP level in HL-60 promyelocytes. Here we show that the histamine-induced [Ca(2+)](i) rise was due to influx of Ca(2+) from the extracellular space, probably through nonselective cation channels, as incubation of the cells with SKF 96365 abolished the histamine-induced [Ca(2+)](i) rise, Na(+) influx, and membrane depolarization. The Ca(2+) influx was specifically inhibited by pretreatment of the cells with PMA or extracellular ATP with 50% inhibitory concentrations of 0.12 +/- 0.03 nM and 185 +/- 17 microM, respectively. Western blot analysis of protein kinase C (PKC) isoforms revealed that PMA (< or =1 nM) and ATP (300 microM) caused selective translocation of PKC-delta to the particulate/membrane fraction. Costimulation of the cells with histamine and SKF 96365 partially reduced histamine-induced granulocytic differentiation, which was evaluated by looking at the extent of fMet-Leu-Phe-induced [Ca(2+)](i) rise and superoxide generation. In conclusion, nonselective cation channels are opened by stimulation of the H(2) receptor, and the channels are at least in part involved in the induction of histamine-mediated differentiation processes. Both effects of histamine were selectively inhibited probably by the delta isoform of PKC in HL-60 cells.
