Prolyl oligopeptidase (POP) is a post-proline cleaving enzyme, which is widely distributed in various organs, with high levels in the brain. In this study, we investigated the effects of a selective POP inhibitor, 3-({4-[2-(E)-styrylphenoxy]butanoyl}-l-4-hydroxyprolyl)-thiazolidine (SUAM-14746), on the growth of NB-1 human neuroblastoma cells. SUAM-14746 treatment for 24–72 h suppresses the growth of NB-1 cells without cell death in a dose-dependent manner (10–60 μM). Similar suppressive effects were observed with another POP inhibitor benzyloxycarbonyl-thioprolyl-thioprolinal. The SUAM-14746-induced growth inhibition in NB-1 cells was associated with pronounced G0/G1 arrest and reduced levels of phosphorylated retinoblastoma protein (pRb), cyclin E, and cyclin dependent kinase (CDK) 2, and increased levels of the CDK inhibitor p27kip1 and the tumor suppressor p53. SUAM-14746 also induced transient inhibition of S and G2/M phase progression, which was correlated with retardation of the decrease in the levels of cyclins A and B. Moreover, RNAi-mediated knockdown of POP also led to inhibition of NB-1 cell growth and the effect was accompanied by G0/G1 arrest. These results indicate that POP is a part of the machinery that controls the cell cycle. 相似文献

Prolyl oligopeptidase (POP) is a serine endopeptidase that hydrolyzes post-proline peptide bonds in peptides that are <30 amino acids in length. We recently reported that POP inhibition suppressed the growth of human neuroblastoma cells. The growth suppression was associated with pronounced G0/G1 cell cycle arrest and increased levels of the CDK inhibitor p27kip1 and the tumor suppressor p53. In this study, we investigated the mechanism of POP inhibition-induced cell growth arrest using a human gastric cancer cell line, KATO III cells, which had a p53 gene deletion. POP specific inhibitors, 3-({4-[2-(E)-styrylphenoxy]butanoyl}-l-4-hydroxyprolyl)-thiazolidine (SUAM-14746) and benzyloxycarbonyl-thioprolyl-thioprolinal, or RNAi-mediated POP knockdown inhibited the growth of KATO III cells irrespective of their p53 status. SUAM-14746-induced growth inhibition was associated with G0/G1 cell cycle phase arrest and increased levels of p27kip1 in the nuclei and the pRb2/p130 protein expression. Moreover, SUAM-14746-mediated cell cycle arrest of KATO III cells was associated with an increase in the quiescent G0 state, defined by low level staining for the proliferation marker, Ki-67. These results indicate that POP may be a positive regulator of cell cycle progression by regulating the exit from and/or reentry into the cell cycle by KATO III cells. 相似文献
