In Huh-7 hepatoma cells, low dose (LD) doxorubicin treatment induces cell death through mitotic catastrophe accompanying the formation of large cells with multiple micronuclei, whereas high dose (HD) doxorubicin induces apoptosis. In this study, we investigated the role of Cdc2 and Cdk2 kinase in the regulation of the two modes of cell death induced by doxorubicin. During HD doxorubicin-induced apoptosis, the histone H1-associated activities of Cdc2 and Cdk2 both progressively declined in parallel with reductions in cyclin A and cyclin B protein levels. In contrast, during LD doxorubicin-induced cell death through mitotic catastrophe, the Cdc2 and Cdk2 kinases were transiently activated 1 day post-treatment, with similar changes seen in the protein levels of cyclin A, cyclin B, and Cdc2. Treatment with roscovitine, a specific inhibitor of Cdc2 and Cdk2, significantly blocked LD doxorubicin-induced mitotic catastrophe and cell death, but did not affect HD doxorubicin-induced apoptosis in Huh-7, SNU-398, and SNU-449 hepatoma cell lines. Our results demonstrate that differential regulation of Cdc2 and Cdk2 activity by different doses of doxorubicin may contribute to the induction of two distinct modes of cell death in hepatoma cells, either apoptosis or cell death through mitotic catastrophe. 相似文献

The balance between cell cycle progression and apoptosis is important for both surveillance against genomic defects and responses to drugs that arrest the cell cycle. In this report, we show that the level of the human anti‐apoptotic protein Mcl‐1 is regulated during the cell cycle and peaks at mitosis. Mcl‐1 is phosphorylated at two sites in mitosis, Ser64 and Thr92. Phosphorylation of Thr92 by cyclin‐dependent kinase 1 (CDK1)–cyclin B1 initiates degradation of Mcl‐1 in cells arrested in mitosis by microtubule poisons. Mcl‐1 destruction during mitotic arrest requires proteasome activity and is dependent on Cdc20/Fizzy, which mediates recognition of mitotic substrates by the anaphase‐promoting complex/cyclosome (APC/C) E3 ubiquitin ligase. Stabilisation of Mcl‐1 during mitotic arrest by mutation of either Thr92 or a D‐box destruction motif inhibits the induction of apoptosis by microtubule poisons. Thus, phosphorylation of Mcl‐1 by CDK1–cyclin B1 and its APC/CCdc20‐mediated destruction initiates apoptosis if a cell fails to resolve mitosis. Regulation of apoptosis, therefore, is linked intrinsically to progression through mitosis and is governed by a temporal mechanism that distinguishes between normal mitosis and prolonged mitotic arrest. 相似文献

Analysis of cell cycle regulation in the budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae has shown that a central regulatory protein kinase, Cdc28, undergoes changes in activity through the cell cycle by associating with distinct groups of cyclins that accumulate at different times. The various cyclin/Cdc28 complexes control different aspects of cell cycle progression, including the commitment step known as START and mitosis. We found that altering the activity of Cdc28 had profound effects on morphogenesis during the yeast cell cycle. Our results suggest that activation of Cdc28 by G1 cyclins (Cln1, Cln2, or Cln3) in unbudded G1 cells triggers polarization of the cortical actin cytoskeleton to a specialized pre-bud site at one end of the cell, while activation of Cdc28 by mitotic cyclins (Clb1 or Clb2) in budded G2 cells causes depolarization of the cortical actin cytoskeleton and secretory apparatus. Inactivation of Cdc28 following cyclin destruction in mitosis triggers redistribution of cortical actin structures to the neck region for cytokinesis. In the case of pre-bud site assembly following START, we found that the actin rearrangement could be triggered by Cln/Cdc28 activation in the absence of de novo protein synthesis, suggesting that the kinase may directly phosphorylate substrates (such as actin-binding proteins) that regulate actin distribution in cells. 相似文献

Products generated from lipoprotein lipase-mediated hydrolysis of triglyceride-rich lipoproteins (TGRL) are reported to increase endothelial layer permeability. We hypothesize that these increases in permeability result from the active rearrangement and dissolution of the junctional barrier in human aortic endothelial cells, as well as induction of the apoptotic cascade. Human aortic endothelial cells were treated with TGRL lipolysis products generated from coincubation of human TGRL plus lipoprotein lipase. Measurement of transendothelial electrical resistance demonstrated a time-dependent decrease in endothelial barrier function in response to TGRL lipolysis products. Immunofluorescent localization of zonula occludens-1 (ZO-1) showed radial rearrangement along cell borders after 1.5 h of treatment with lipolysis products. A concurrent redistribution of F-actin from the cell body to the cell margins was observed via rhodamine phalloidin staining. Immunofluorescent imaging for occludin and vascular endothelial cadherin showed that these proteins relocalize as well, although these changes are less prominent than for ZO-1. Western analysis of cells exposed to lipolysis products for 3 h revealed the fragmentation of ZO-1, a reduction in occludin, and no change of vascular endothelial cadherin. Lipolysis products also increased caspase-3 activity and induced nuclear fragmentation. Treatments did not cause oncosis in cells at any point during the incubation. These results demonstrate that TGRL lipolysis products play an important role in the regulation of endothelial permeability, the organization of the actin cytoskeleton, the localization and expression of junctional proteins, especially ZO-1, and the induction of apoptosis. 相似文献

Hematoporphyrin monomethyl ether (HMME) has been effectively used to treat solid tumors of some types. However, its application in nasopharyngeal carcinoma has not been studied yet. In this paper, the detailed sonodynamic effects of HMME‐SDT (sonodynamic therapy) on CNE‐2 cells including cell growth inhibition, apoptosis induction, and membrane toxicity were investigated. It was found that HMME alone had less cytotoxicity whereas HMME‐SDT could suppress the cell proliferation in a dose‐dependent manner as detected by MTT assay. The annexin V‐based flow cytometric data indicated that upon SDT, different concentrations of HMME induce distinct types of cell death, apoptosis by low concentration (60 µg/ml) of HMME and necrosis by higher concentration (120 µg/ml). The immunofluorescence of cytoskeleton and nuclei morphology showed that upon HMME‐SDT, the cells became rounding and the cytoskeletal network disappeared, and, the nuclei represented a total fragmented morphology of nuclear bodies. These alternations showed the apoptosis induction by HMME‐SDT. Further AFM study showed that the cell membrane structure and cytoskeleton networks were destroyed, and, the Young's modulus, tip‐cell‐surface adhesion force decreased to 0.22 ± 0.11 Mpa, 35.4 ± 12.8 pN of cells with 120 µg/ml HMME‐SDT from 0.48 ± 0.21 Mpa, 69.6 ± 22.3 pN of native cells, respectively. These membrane changes caused the collapse of mitochondrial transmembrane potential and disturbance of intracellular calcium homeostasis, which was consistent with the results detected by flow cytometry. Therefore, membrane toxicity and cytoskeleton disrupture induced by HMME‐SDT maybe important factors to induce cell apoptosis, and, the disturbance of mitochondrial transmembrane potential and calcium channels might be the apoptosis mechanisms.

The role of actin cytoskeleton functional state in glioma C6 cell morphology and calcium signaling was investigated through modification of myosin II activity by blocking Rho-associated kinase with the specific inhibitor Y-27632. Treatment of glioma C6 cells with ROCK inhibitor resulted in actin cytoskeleton reorganization and also in the changed shape and distribution of mitochondria. Changes in the distribution of ER, the main calcium store in glioma C6 cells, were not visible. The inhibition of myosin II activity influences the first phase of calcium signaling evoked by agonist, and both phases of thapsigargin-evoked calcium response. We suggest that the observed increase in Ca2+ release from intracellular stores induced by IP3 formation as well as inhibition of SERCA ATPase is at least in part related to severely affected mitochondria. Enhancement of capacitative calcium entry evoked by thapsigargin is probably associated with the reorganization of the acto-myosin II system. ATP-induced calcium response presents no changes in the second phase. We observed that ATP stimulation of Y-27632 pretreated cells leads to immediate morphological rearrangement of glioma C6 cells. It is a consequence of actin cytoskeleton reorganization: formation of stress fibers and relocation of phosphorylated myosin II to actin filaments. It seems that the agonist-evoked strong calcium signal may be sufficient for myosin II activation and the stress fiber organization. This is the first work showing the dependence between the functional state of the acto-myosin II system and calcium signaling stressing the reversible character of this relationship. 相似文献

Actin and spectrin localization in the oocytes of the starfish Asterias amurensis at hormonal induction of maturation until the destruction of the germinal vesicular membrane has been investigated by immunocytochemical and immunoblotting methods. In immature oocytes, spectrinlike protein and actin are detected to be colocalized in the undermembranous area of the cytoplasm and nuclear membrane. 1-Methyladenine causes redistribution of these proteins into intracellular structures. The actin-spectrin cytoskeleton rearrangement is shown to start at the animal pole of the oocyte and to spread then to its vegetative pole. 相似文献

During apoptosis, cell chromatin undergoes characteristic morphological changes, which have been long described in a variety of experimental models but are mostly not yet understood. The aim of the present study was to investigate the mechanisms underlying this phenomenon and the possible role of cytoskeleton, in particular actin. The chosen apoptotic model were HL60 hemopoietic cells undergoing hyperthermia and the starting point was the observation of thin filament bundles in decondensed chromatin of their early apoptotic nuclei. The characterization of these structures was undertaken by cytochemical, fluorescent and immunogold techniques, directed to actin identification. Taken together, our results suggest, in apoptotic cells, a deep actin rearrangement. Moreover, this cytoskeletal component, never present in normal nucleus, appears in the early apoptotic one, where it can be found in polymerized form, promptly recognizable both by conventional and immunogold electron microscopy. We suggest that, similarly to the role played by nuclear matrix in interphase and mitotic nucleus, actin could be directly involved in chromatin rearrangement occurring in apoptosis. 相似文献

To understand the potential influence of spindle checkpoint function in response to arsenic trioxide (ATO)-induced apoptosis observed in cancer cell lines, we examined the correlation between activation of the spindle checkpoint and susceptibility to ATO-induced apoptosis in 10 cancer cell lines lacking functional p53. The ability to functionally activate the spindle checkpoint in each cancer cell line was assessed by the induction of mitotic arrest after Taxol treatment. Bromodeoxyuridine (BrdU) pulse-chase analysis of Taxol-treated cell lines with low mitotic arrest showed that they were not arrested at mitosis but divided abnormally, confirming that spindle checkpoint activation was impaired in these cell lines. Our results demonstrate that apoptosis was significantly induced by ATO in cancer cell lines with functional activation of the spindle checkpoint and substantial induction of mitotic arrest. Cell lines with negligible mitotic arrest exhibited little ATO-induced apoptosis. However, no such correlation was observed following treatment of cells with camptothecin, a topoisomerase I inhibitor. Furthermore, attenuation of the spindle checkpoint function by small interfering RNA-mediated silencing of BubR1 and Mad2 in cancer cells that were susceptible to ATO-induced mitotic arrest and apoptosis greatly reduced the induction of mitotic arrest and apoptosis by ATO and increased the formation of micronuclei or multinuclei in survived cells. The marked correlation between ATO-induced mitotic arrest and apoptosis indicates that the induction of apoptosis by ATO was highly dependent on the functional activation of the spindle checkpoint in cancer cells lacking normal p53 function. 相似文献

Inhibition of Rho-associated protein kinase (ROCK) activity in glioma C6 cells induces changes in actin cytoskeleton organization and cell morphology similar to those observed in other types of cells with inhibited RhoA/ROCK signaling pathway. We show that phosphorylation of myosin light chains (MLC) induced by P2Y? receptor stimulation in cells with blocked ROCK correlates in time with actin cytoskeleton reorganization, F-actin redistribution and stress fibers assembly followed by recovery of normal cell morphology. Presented results indicate that myosin light-chain kinase (MLCK) is responsible for the observed phosphorylation of MLC. We also found that the changes induced by P2Y? stimulation in actin cytoskeleton dynamics and morphology of cells with inhibited ROCK, but not in the level of phosphorylated MLC, depend on the presence of calcium in the cell environment. 相似文献

In adults, glioma is the most commonly occurring and invasive brain tumour. For malignant gliomas, the current advanced chemotherapy includes TMZ (temozolomide). However, a sizeable number of gliomas are unyielding to TMZ, hence, giving rise to an urgent need for more efficient treatment choices. Here, we report that cyclin‐dependent kinases 4 (CDK4) is expressed at significantly high levels in glioma cell lines and tissues. CDK4 overexpression enhances colony formation and proliferation of glioma cells and extends resistance to inhibition of TMZ‐mediated cell proliferation and induction of apoptosis. However, CDK4 knockdown impedes colony formation and cell proliferation, and enhances sensitivity of glioma cells to TMZ. The selective inhibition of CDK4/6 impedes glioma cell proliferation and induces apoptotic induction. The selective inhibitors of CDK4/6 may enhance glioma cell sensitivity to TMZ. We further showed the possible role of RB phosphorylation mediated by CDK4 for its oncogenic function in glioma. The growth of glioma xenografts was inhibited in vivo, through combination treatment, and corresponded to enhanced p‐RB levels, reduced staining of Ki‐67 and enhanced activation of caspase 3. Therefore, CDK4 inhibition may be a favourable strategy for glioma treatment and overcomes TMZ resistance. 相似文献

The antimitotic anti‐cancer drugs, including taxol, perturb spindle dynamics, and induce prolonged, spindle checkpoint‐dependent mitotic arrest in cancer cells. These cells then either undergo apoptosis triggered by the intrinsic mitochondrial pathway or exit mitosis without proper cell division in an adaptation pathway. Using a genome‐wide small interfering RNA (siRNA) screen in taxol‐treated HeLa cells, we systematically identify components of the mitotic apoptosis and adaptation pathways. We show that the Mad2 inhibitor p31comet actively promotes mitotic adaptation through cyclin B1 degradation and has a minor separate function in suppressing apoptosis. Conversely, the pro‐apoptotic Bcl2 family member, Noxa, is a critical initiator of mitotic cell death. Unexpectedly, the upstream components of the mitochondrial apoptosis pathway and the mitochondrial fission protein Drp1 contribute to mitotic adaption. Our results reveal crosstalk between the apoptosis and adaptation pathways during mitotic arrest. 相似文献

Doublecortin (DCX) is a microtubule (MT) binding protein that induces growth arrest at the G2–M phase of cell cycle in glioma and suppresses tumor xenograft in immunocompromised hosts. DCX expression was found in neuronal cells, but lacking in glioma cells. We tested the hypothesis that DCX inhibits glioma U87 cell mitosis and invasion. Our data showed that DCX synthesizing U87 cells underwent mitotic MT spindle catastrophe in a neurabin II dependent pathway. Synthesis of both DCX and neurabin II were required to induce apoptosis in U87 and human embryonic kidney 293T cells. In DCX expressing U87 cells, association of phosphorylated DCX with protein phosphatase-1 (PP1) in the cytosol disrupted the interaction between kinesin-13 and PP1 in the nucleus and yielded spontaneously active kinesin-13. The activated kinesin-13 caused mitotic MT catastrophe in spindle checkpoint. Phosphorylated-DCX induced depolymerization of actin filaments in U87 cells, down-regulated matrix metalloproteinases-2 and -9, and inhibited glioma U87 cell invasion in a neurabin II dependent pathway. Thus, localization of the DCX–neurabin II–PP1 complex in the cytosol of U87 tumor cells inhibited PP1 phosphatase activities leading to anti-glioma effects via (1) mitotic MT spindle catastrophe that blocks mitosis and (2) depolymerization of actin that inhibits glioma cell invasion. 相似文献

Endosperm mitotic cells microinjected with fluorescent phalloidin enabled us to follow the in vivo dynamics of the F-actin cytoskeleton. The fluorescent probe immediately bound to plant microfilaments. First, we investigated the active rearrangement of F-actin during chromosome migration, which appeared to be slowed down in the presence of phalloidin. These findings were compared with the actin patterns observed in mitotic cells fixed at different stages. Our second aim was to determine the origin of the actin filaments that appear at the equator during anaphase-telophase transition. It is not clear whether this F-actin is newly assembled at the end of mitosis and could control plant cytokinesis or whether it corresponds to a passive redistribution of broken polymers in response to microtubule dynamics. We microinjected the same cells twice, first in metaphase with rhodamine-phalloidin and then in late anaphase with fluorescein isothiocyanate-phalloidin. This technique enabled us to visualize two F-actin populations that are not co-localized, suggesting that actin is newly assembled during cell plate development. These in vivo data shed new light on the role of actin in plant mitosis and cytokinesis. 相似文献

This study purposed to explore the correlation between miR‐129‐5p and TGIF2 and their impacts on glioma cell progression. Differentially expressed miRNA was screened through microarray analysis. MiR‐129‐5p expression levels in glioma tissues and cells were measured by qRT‐PCR. CCK‐8 assay, flow cytometer, transwell assay and wound‐healing assay were employed to detect cell proliferation, apoptosis and cycle, invasiveness and migration, respectively. Dual‐luciferase reporting assay was performed to confirm the targeted relationship between miR‐129‐5p and TGIF2. The effects of TGIF2 expression on cell biological functions were also investigated using the indicated methods. Tumour xenograft was applied to explore the impact of miR‐129‐5p on tumorigenesis in vivo. MiR‐129‐5p expression was down‐regulated in both glioma tissues and glioma cells, while TGIF2 expression was aberrantly higher than normal level. Dual‐luciferase reporter assay validated the targeting relation between miR‐129‐5p and TGIF2. Overexpression of miR‐129‐5p or down‐regulation of TGIF2 inhibited the proliferation, invasion and migration capacity of glioma cells U87 and U251, and meanwhile blocked the cell cycle as well as induced cell apoptosis. MiR‐129‐5p overexpression repressed the tumour development in vivo. MiR‐129‐5p and TGIF2 had opposite biological functions in glioma cells. MiR‐129‐5p could inhibit glioma cell progression by targeting TGIF2, shining light for the development of target treatment for glioma. 相似文献

Wnt signalling pathways have extremely diverse functions in animals, including induction of cell fates or tumours, guidance of cell movements during gastrulation, and the induction of cell polarity. Wnt can induce polar changes in cellular morphology by a remodelling of the cytoskeleton. However, how activation of the Frizzled receptor induces cytoskeleton rearrangement is not well understood. We show, by an in depth 4-D microscopy analysis, that the Caenorhabditis elegans Wnt pathway signals to CED-10/Rac via two separate branches to regulate modulation of the cytoskeleton in different cellular situations. Apoptotic cell clearance and migration of the distal tip cell require the MOM-5/Fz receptor, GSK-3 kinase, and APC/APR-1, which activate the CED-2/5/12 branch of the engulfment machinery. MOM-5 (Frizzled) thus can function as an engulfment receptor in C. elegans. Our epistatic analyses also suggest that the two partially redundant signalling pathways defined earlier for engulfment may act in a single pathway in early embryos. By contrast, rearrangement of mitotic spindles requires the MOM-5/Fz receptor, GSK-3 kinase, and β-catenins, but not the downstream factors LIT-1/NLK or POP-1/Tcf. Taken together, our results indicate that in multiple developmental processes, CED-10/Rac can link polar signals mediated by the Wnt pathway to rearrangements of the cytoskeleton. 相似文献

The spindle assembly checkpoint arrests cells in mitosis when defects in mitotic spindle assembly or partitioning of the replicated genome are detected. This checkpoint blocks exit from mitosis until the defect is rectified or the cell initiates apoptosis. In this study we have used caffeine to identify components of the mechanism that signals apoptosis in mitotic checkpoint-arrested cells. Addition of caffeine to spindle checkpoint-arrested cells induced >40% apoptosis within 5 h. It also caused proteasome-mediated destruction of cyclin B1, a corresponding reduction in cyclin B1/cdk1 activity, and reduction in MPM-2 reactivity. However, cells retained MAD2 staining at the kinetochores, an indication of continued spindle checkpoint function. Blocking proteasome activity did not block apoptosis, but continued spindle checkpoint function was essential for apoptosis. After systematically eliminating all known targets, we have identified p21-activated kinase PAK1, which has an anti-apoptotic function in spindle checkpoint-arrested cells, as a target for caffeine inhibition. Knockdown of PAK1 also increased apoptosis in spindle checkpoint-arrested cells. This study demonstrates that the spindle checkpoint not only regulates mitotic exit but apoptosis in mitosis through the activity of PAK1. 相似文献

This study was designed to explore the relationship between miR‐1275 and SERPINE1 and its effects on glioma cell proliferation, migration, invasion and apoptosis. Differentially expressed miRNAs and mRNAs in glioma tissues were screened out by bioinformatic analysis. Dual‐luciferase reporter gene assay was used to validate the targeted relationship between miR‐1275 and SERPINE1. qRT‐PCR was used to detect the expression of miR‐1275 and SERPINE1 in glioma tissues. The expressions of SERPINE1 and p53 pathway‐related proteins in glioma cells were detected by western blot. Glioma cell proliferation, apoptosis, migration and invasion were respectively detected by CCK‐8 assay, flow cytometry, wound healing assay and transwell assay. Tumour xenograft model was developed to study the influence of miR‐1275 and SERPINE1 on glioma growth in vivo. The results of microarray analysis, qRT‐PCR and western blot showed that miR‐1275 was low‐expressed while SERPINE1 was high‐expressed in glioma. Dual‐luciferase assay showed that miR‐1275 could bind to SERPINE1. Overexpression of miR‐1275 could promote the p53 pathway‐related proteins’ expression. Highly expressed miR‐1275 could repress the migration, proliferation and invasion of glioma cells while highly expressed SERPINE1 had inverse effects. Tumour xenograft showed that up‐regulated miR‐1275 or down‐regulated SERPINE1 could repress glioma growth in vivo. Up‐regulation of miR‐1275 activated p53 signalling pathway via regulating SERPINE1 and therefore suppressed glioma cell proliferation, invasion and migration, whereas promoted cell apoptosis. 相似文献
