Antiproliferation and apoptosis of human tumor cell lines by a lectin (AMML) of Astragalus mongholicus

A lectin (AMML) from the roots of Astragalus mongholicus was extracted and purified by affinity chromatographic technique. Human cervical carcinoma cell line (HeLa), human osteoblast-like cell line (MG63) and human leukemia cell line (K562) were used to check the effects of AMML on cell proliferation, apoptosis and cell cycle. Maximum growth inhibition (92%) was observed with HeLa cells, followed by K562 cells (84%) and MG63 (48%) cells. Morphological observation showed that AMML-treated HeLa cells displayed outstanding apoptosis characteristics, such as nuclear fragmentation and appearance of membrane-enclosed apoptotic bodies. The apoptosis of HeLa cells was confirmed by flow cytometry using Annexin V/FITC and propidium iodide (PI) staining technique. For the first time we also report a significant cell cycle arrest at S phase of HeLa cells by AMML. Therefore, the present investigation may lead to the possible therapeutic use of Astragalus mongholicus lectin.

Immunochemical detection of cell cycle synchronization in a human erythroleukemia cell line, K562

Cells of the human erythroleukemic line K562 can be induced by manipulation of culture conditions to arrest within the G1 phase of the cell cycle, and subsequently to enter S phase synchronously after release from G1. Cell cultures subjected to serum deprivation and hydroxyurea (HU) treatment demonstrated less than 5% of the cells to be in S phase. Four hours after release from HU, 63% of the cells were in S phase, as detected by immunofluorescent staining. This protocol offers a method for synchronization of K562 cells at the G1/S border and a technique for detection of S-phase cells without the use of radioisotopes or flow cytometry instrumentation.     

A Novobiocin Derivative,XN4, Inhibits the Proliferation of Chronic Myeloid Leukemia Cells by Inducing Oxidative DNA Damage

XN4 might induce DNA damage and apoptotic cell death through reactive oxygen species (ROS). The inhibition of proliferation of K562 and K562/G01 cells was measured by MTT (3-(4,5-Dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-Diphenyltetrazolium Bromide). The mRNA levels of NADPH oxidase 1-5 (Nox1-5) genes were evaluated by qRT-PCR. The levels of extracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS), DNA damage, apoptosis, and cell cycle progression were examined by flow cytometry (FCM). Protein levels were analyzed by immunoblotting. XN4 significantly inhibited the proliferation of K562 and K562/G01 cells, with IC₅₀ values of 3.75±0.07 µM and 2.63±0.43 µM, respectively. XN4 significantly increased the levels of Nox4 and Nox5 mRNA, stimulating the generation of intracellular ROS, inducing DNA damage and activating ATM-γ-H2AX signaling, which increased the number of cells in the S and G2/M phase of the cell cycle. Subsequently, XN4 induced apoptotic cell death by activating caspase-3 and PARP. Moreover, the above effects were all reversed by the ROS scavenger N-acetylcysteine (NAC). Additionally, XN4 can induce apoptosis in progenitor/stem cells isolated from CML patients’ bone marrow. In conclusion, XN4-induced DNA damage and cell apoptosis in CML cells is mediated by the generation of ROS.     

Knockdown of insulin receptor substrate 1 reduces proliferation and downregulates Akt/mTOR and MAPK pathways in K562 cells

BCR-ABL kinase activates downstream signaling pathways, including the PI3K-Akt/mTOR and the MAPK pathway. IRS1 has been previously described as constitutively phosphorylated and associated with BCR-ABL in K562 cells, suggesting that IRS1 has role in the BCR-ABL signaling pathways. In this study, we analyzed the effect of IRS1 silencing, by shRNA-lentiviral delivery, in K562 cells, a CML cell line that presents the BCR-ABL. IRS1 silencing decreased cell proliferation and colony formation in K562 cells, which correlates with the delay of these cells at the G0/G1 phase and a decrease in the S phase of the cell cycle. Furthermore, IRS1 silencing in K562 cells resulted in a decrease of Akt, P70S6K and ERK1/2 phosphorylation. Nevertheless, apoptosis was unaffected by IRS1 knockdown and no alterations were found in the phosphorylation of BAD and in the expression of BCL2 and BAX. BCR-ABL and CRKL phosphorylation levels remained unaffected upon IRS1 silencing, and no synergistic effect was observed with imatinib treatment and IRS1 knockdown, indicating that IRS1 is downstream from BCR-ABL. In conclusion, we demonstrated that inhibition of IRS1 is capable of inducing the downregulation of Akt/mTOR and MAPK pathways and further decreasing proliferation, and clonogenicity and induces to cell cycle delay at G0/G1 phase in BCR-ABL cells.     

Guanosine supplementation reduces the antiproliferative and apoptotic effects of the IMPDH inhibitor gnidilatimonoein in K562 cells

IMPDH (inosine 5'-monophosphate dehydrogenase) is the rate-limiting enzyme in the de novo biosynthetic pathway of guanine nucleotides, which is usually up-regulated in human leukaemia cell lines. Our previous studies have classified gnidilatimonoein, isolated from Daphne mucronata, as an IMPDH inhibitor and a strong antiproliferative agent among several types of leukaemia cells. In the present study, we investigated the effects of gnidilatimonoein on intracellular GTP pool size and its link to differentiation and apoptosis of K562 cells. It was found that gnidilatimonoein inhibited cell proliferation and induced G0/G1 cell cycle arrest in K562 cells after 24 h exposure to a single dose of gnidilatimonoein (1.5 μM), while no significant effects were observed on unstimulated and phytohaemagglutinin-stimulated peripheral blood lymphocyte cells at the gnidilatimonoein dose (1.5 μM) used. Based on the morphological changes, Wright-Giemsa staining, benzidine assay and the expression of cell surface markers [GPIIb (glycoprotein IIb) and glycophorin A], as analysed by flow cytometry, we found that K562 cells had differentiated towards megakaryocytic lineage. In addition, gnidilatimonoein induced apoptosis among K562 cells based on Acridine Orange/ethidium bromide and annexin V/propidium iodide double-staining observations. These changes, which were abrogated by the addition of guanosine, became evident when the intracellular GTP level decreased to approx. 20-35% of the untreated control level. Based on these findings, it can be concluded that gnidilatimonoein induces differentiation and apoptosis in K562 cells through perturbation of GTP metabolism, as one of its routes of action.     

Cell cycle progression and activation of Akt kinase are required for insulin-like growth factor I-mediated suppression of apoptosis in granulosa cells

Ovarian follicle development is dependent on growth factors that stimulate cell proliferation and act as survival factors to prevent apoptosis of follicle cells. We examined the mechanism of the protective effect of IGF-I against Fas ligand-induced apoptosis of granulosa cells and its relationship to cell proliferation. IGF-I activated both the phosphoinositide 3'-OH kinase (PI3K) and the MAPK pathways. Experiments using specific inhibitors of these pathways showed that protection by IGF-I was mediated by the PI3K pathway and not the MAPK pathway. Recombinant adenoviruses were used to test whether the downstream target of PI3K activation, Akt kinase, was required for protection against apoptosis. Expression of dominant negative Akt prevented protection by IGF-I whereas expression of constitutively active Akt (myrAkt) mimicked the effect of IGF-I. Treatment with IGF-I, or expression of myrAkt, increased progression from G(0)/G(1) to S phase of the cell cycle whereas expression of dominant negative Akt inhibited G(0)/G(1) to S phase progression and prevented the stimulatory effect of IGF-I. We tested whether cell cycle progression was required for protection from apoptosis using the cyclin-dependent kinase-2 inhibitor roscovitine, which blocks cells at the G(1)/S transition. Roscovitine prevented the protective effect of IGF-I and myrAkt expression against apoptosis. Therefore, activation of Akt is not sufficient to protect granulosa cells from apoptosis in the absence of cell cycle progression. In summary, IGF-I protects granulosa cells from apoptosis by activation of the PI3K/Akt pathway. This protective effect can occur only when progression from G(1) to S phase of the cell cycle regulated by the PI3K/Akt pathway is unperturbed.
