Curcumin has anti‐oxidant, anti‐cancer and anti‐carcinogen property. Our laboratory had previously reported that, curcumin treatment induces reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation in HT‐29 cell line, an effect contradictory to its anti‐oxidant property. This study evaluates the role of p53 in curcumin mediated ROS generation and cell death. Curcumin induced ROS was determined by 2’,7’‐dichlorofluorescein and apoptosis by Hoechst33342/PI staining in HT‐29 and HCT‐116 cell lines. ROS generation occurs within 1 hour of 40 µM curcumin treatment and a reduction was observed by third hour in HCT‐116 insinuating p53 involvement. N‐acetyl cysteine (NAC) pre‐treatment effectively quenched ROS and inhibited membrane potential loss in HT‐29, but less effective in HCT‐116. Mitochondrial membrane potential loss is evident with 10 and 40 µM curcumin in HCT‐116 and at 40 µM curcumin in HT‐29. Total p53 protein level increase was observed by 24 hours in HCT‐116 upon NAC pre‐treatment. Our results indicate that curcumin induces ROS mediated cell death in colon adenocarcinoma cell lines and may be mediated via p53. 相似文献

A putative protein inhibitor of activated STAT (PIASy) interacts with p53 and inhibits p53-mediated transactivation but not apoptosis 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

The p53 protein has recently been reported to be capable of mediating apoptosis through a pathway that is not dependent on its transactivation function. We report here that the PIASy member of the protein inhibitor of activated STAT family inhibited p53's transactivation function without compromising its ability to induce apoptosis of the H1299 nonsmall cell lung carcinoma cell line. The p53 protein bound to PIASy in yeast two-hybrid assays and coprecipitated in complexes with p53 in immunoprecipitates from mammalian cells. PIASy inhibited the DNA-binding activity of p53 in nuclear extracts and blocked the ability of p53 to induce expression of two of its target genes, Bax and p21Waf1/Cip1, in H1299 cells. The block in p53-mediated induction of Bax and p21 was determined to be at the level of transactivation, since PIASy inhibited p53's ability to transactivate a p21/luciferase reporter construct. PIASy did not effect the incidence of apoptosis in H1299 cells upregulated for p53. PIASy appears to regulate p53-mediated functions and may direct p53 into a transactivation-independent mode of apoptosis. 相似文献

Engagement of CD40 on the surface of antigen-presenting cells (APC) has been shown to substitute for T cell help in activating
APC to stimulate cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTL). We explored whether this powerful non-specific signal could enhance the CTL
response to a self epitope from a tumor-associated antigen. We immunized mice with a lipopeptide covering the H-2Kd-restricted epitope, amino acids 232–240 of murine wild-type p53, followed by treatment with an activating anti-CD40 monoclonal
antibody. Anti-CD40 antibody, given subcutaneously or intravenously, significantly enhanced effector activity against targets
pulsed with non-lipidated 232–240 nonamer epitope peptide, as assessed both by a CTL lysis assay and an enzyme-linked immunospot
(ELISPOT) assay for interferon-γ-secreting cells. However, despite this enhancement, we could not detect activity against
targets expressing p53 endogenously by either assay. This most likely reflects the low avidity of the effectors as determined
by a titration of peptide on the target cells. The implications of this work for cancer immunotherapy based on specific responses
directed against tumor-associated antigens are discussed.

Phosphorylation of the p53 tumor suppressor at Ser20 (murine Ser23) has been proposed to be critical for disrupting p53 interaction with its negative regulator, MDM2, and allowing p53 stabilization. To determine the importance of Ser23 for the function of p53 in vivo, we generated a mouse in which the endogenous p53 locus was targeted to replace Ser23 with alanine. We show that, in mouse embryonic fibroblasts generated from Ser23 mutant mice, Ser23 mutation did not dramatically reduce IR-induced p53 protein stabilization or p53-dependent cell cycle arrest. However, in Ser23 mutant thymocytes and in the developing cerebellum, p53 stabilization following IR was decreased and resistance to apoptosis was observed. Homozygous Ser23 mutant animals had a reduced lifespan, but did not develop thymic lymphomas or sarcomas that are characteristic of p53-/- mice. Instead, Ser23 mutant animals died between 1 and 2 years with tumors that were most commonly of B-cell lineage. These data support an important role for Ser20/23 phosphorylation in p53 stabilization, apoptosis and tumor suppression. 相似文献

The KRAB-type zinc-finger protein Apak was recently identified as a negative regulator of p53-mediated apoptosis. However, the mechanism of this selective regulation is not fully understood. Here, we show that Apak recognizes the TCTTN2−30TTGT consensus sequence through its zinc-fingers. This sequence is specifically found in intron 1 of the proapoptotic p53 target gene p53AIP1 and largely overlaps with the p53-binding sequence. Apak competes with p53 for binding to this site to inhibit p53AIP1 expression. Upon DNA damage, Apak dissociates from the DNA, which abolishes its inhibitory effect on p53-mediated apoptosis. 相似文献

Osteosarcoma is a highly invasive primary malignancy of bone. Magnolol is biologically active, which shows antitumor effects in a variety of cancer cell lines. However, it has not been elucidated magnolol's effects on human osteosarcoma cells (HOC). This study aimed to determine antitumor activity of magnolol and illustrate the molecular mechanism in HOC. Magnolol showed significant inhibition effect of growth on MG-63 and 143B cells and induced apoptosis and cell cycle arrest at G0/G1. In osteosarcoma cells, magnolol upregulated expressions of proapoptosis proteins and suppressed expressions of antiapoptosis proteins. Additionally, under the pretreatment of pifithrin-a (PFT-a, a p53 inhibitor), the magnolol-induced apoptosis was significantly reversed. The results above indicated that magnolol induces apoptosis in osteosarcoma cells may via G0/G1 phase arrest and p53-mediated mitochondrial pathway. 相似文献

Although Niban is highly expressed in human cancer cells, the cellular functions of Niban remain largely unknown. We demonstrate here that ultraviolet irradiation induces phosphorylation of Niban at S602 by AKT, which increases the association of Niban with nucleophosmin and disassociation of nucleophosmin from the MDM2 complex. This leads to the promotion of MDM2-p53 interaction and subsequent p53 degradation, thereby providing an antiapoptotic effect. Conversely, depletion of or deficiency in Niban expression promotes stabilization of p53 with increased cell apoptosis. Our findings illustrate a pivotal role for AKT-mediated phosphorylation of Niban in protecting cells from genotoxic stress-induced cell apoptosis. 相似文献

P53 inactivation is often observed in Burkitt''s lymphoma (BL) cells due to mutations in the p53 gene or overexpression of its negative regulator, murine double minute-2 (MDM2). This event is now considered an essential part of the oncogenic process. Epstein–Barr virus (EBV) is strongly associated with BL and is a cofactor in its development. We previously showed that nutlin-3, an antagonist of MDM2, activates the p53 pathway in BL cell lines harboring wild-type p53. However, nutlin-3 strongly induced apoptosis in EBV (−) or latency I EBV (+) cells, whereas latency III EBV (+) cells were much more resistant. We show here that this resistance to apoptosis is also observed in latency III EBV (+) lymphoblastoid cell lines. We also show that, in latency III EBV (+) cells, B-cell lymphona 2 (Bcl-2) is selectively overproduced and interacts with Bcl-2-associated X protein (Bax), preventing its activation. The treatment of these cells with the Bcl-2-homology domain 3 mimetic ABT-737 disrupts Bax/Bcl-2 interaction and allows Bax activation by nutlin-3. Furthermore, treatment with these two compounds strongly induces apoptosis. Thus, a combination of Mdm2 and Bcl-2 inhibitors might be a useful anti-cancer strategy for diseases linked to EBV infection. 相似文献

We propose here a novel p53-targeting radio-cancer therapy using p53 C-terminal peptides for patients having mutated p53. Hoechst 33342 staining showed that X-ray irradiation alone efficiently induced apoptotic bodies in wild-type p53 (wt p53) human head and neck cancer cells transfected with a neo control vector (SAS/neo cells), but hardly induced apoptotic bodies in mutation-type p53 (m p53) cells transfected with a vector carrying the m p53 gene (SAS/m p53). In contrast, transfection of p53 C-terminal peptides (amino acid residues 361-382 or 353-374) via liposomes caused a remarkable increase of apoptotic bodies in X-ray-irradiated SAS/m p53 cells, but did not enhance apoptotic bodies in X-ray-irradiated SAS/neo cells. In immunocytochemical analysis, positively stained cells for active type caspase-3 were observed at high frequency after X-ray irradiation in the SAS/m p53 cells pre-treated with p53 C-terminal peptides. In SAS/neo cells, positively stained cells for active type caspase-3 were observed with X-ray irradiation alone. Furthermore, protein extracts from X-ray-irradiated SAS/m p53 cells showed higher DNA-binding activity of p53 to p53 consensus sequence when supplemented in vitro with p53 C-terminal peptides than extracts from non-irradiated SAS/m p53 cells. These results suggest that radiation treatment in the presence of p53 C-terminal peptides is more effective for inducing p53 -mediated apoptosis than radiation treatment alone or p53 C-terminal peptide treatment alone, especially in m p53 cancer cells. This novel tool for enhancement of apoptosis induction in m p53 cells might be useful for p53-targeted radio-cancer therapy. 相似文献

Although programed cell death 5 (PDCD5) is an important protein in p53-mediated proapoptotic signaling, very little is known about PDCD5-related cell death. In this study, we report that serine/threonine kinase 31 (STK31) interacts with PDCD5, which maintains the stability of PDCD5. STK31 overexpression significantly activated PDCD5 stabilization and p53-mediated apoptosis in response to etoposide (ET). However, STK31 knockdown did not enhance apoptosis by ET treatment. Moreover, when STK31 was depleted, PDCD5 inhibited the activation of the p53 signaling pathway with ET, indicating that the PDCD5–STK31 network has an essential role in p53 activation. Importantly, STK31 activated the p53 signaling pathway by genotoxic stress through positive regulation of PDCD5-mediated apoptosis. We thus demonstrated that overexpression of STK31 greatly inhibited tumorigenic growth and increased the chemosensitivity of HCT116 human colorectal carcinoma cells. Taken together, these findings demonstrate that the STK31–PDCD5 complex network regulates apoptosis of cancer cells, and STK31 is a positive apoptosis regulator that inhibits tumorigenesis of colon cancer cells by inducing PDCD5-mediated apoptosis in response to genotoxic stress. 相似文献

p53-independent pRB degradation contributes to a drug-induced apoptosis in AGS cells 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The retinoblastoma (RB) tumor suppressor protein, pRB, plays an important role in the regulation of mammalian cell cycle. Furthermore, several lines of evidence suggest that pRB also involves in the regulation of apoptosis. In the present study, the degradation of pRB was observed in apoptotic gastric tumor cells treated with a new potent anti-tumor component, tripchlorolide (TC). The inhibition of pRB degradation by a general cysteine protease inhibitor IDAM resulted in the reduction of the apoptotic cells. Furthermore, the survival of the gastric tumor cells under the TC treatment was enhanced by an over-expression of exogenous pRB. These results suggest that the pRB degradation of the gastric tumor cells under the TC treatment involves in the apoptotic progression. In addition, the same extent of TCinduced pRB-degradation was detected in the gastric tumor cells containing a p53 dominant-negative construct, indicat- ing that this kind of pRB degradation is p53-independent. 相似文献

The high-mobility group A (HMGA) proteins are a family of non-histone chromatin factors, encoded by the HMGA1 and HMGA2 genes. Several studies demonstrate that HMGA proteins have a critical role in neoplastic transformation, and their overexpression is mainly associated with a highly malignant phenotype, also representing a poor prognostic index. Even though a cytoplasmic localization of these proteins has been previously reported in some highly malignant neoplasias, a clear role for this localization has not been defined. Here, we first confirm the localization of the HMGA1 proteins in the cytoplasm of cancer cells, and then we report a novel mechanism through which HMGA1 inhibits p53-mitochondrial apoptosis by counteracting the binding of p53 to the anti-apoptotic factor Bcl-2. Indeed, we demonstrate a physical and functional interaction between HMGA1 and Bcl-2 proteins. This interaction occurs at mitochondria interfering with the ability of p53 protein to bind Bcl-2, thus counteracting p53-mediated mitochondrial apoptosis. This effect is associated with the inhibition of cytochrome c release and activation of caspases. Consistent with this mechanism, a strong correlation between HMGA1 cytoplasmic localization and a more aggressive histotype of thyroid, breast and colon carcinomas has been observed. Therefore, cytoplasmic localization of HMGA1 proteins in malignant tissues is a novel mechanism of inactivation of p53 apoptotic function. 相似文献
