Background
5′-Nitro-indirubinoxime (5′-NIO) is a new derivative of indirubin that exhibits anti-cancer activity in a variety of human cancer cells. However, its mechanism has not been fully clarified.Methods
Human salivary gland adenocarcinoma (SGT) cells were used in this study. Western blot and RT-PCR analyses were performed to determine cellular Notch levels. The cell cycle stage and level of apoptosis were analyzed using flow cytometry analysis.Results
5′-NIO significantly inhibited the mRNA levels of Notch-1 and Notch-3 and their ligands (Delta1, 2, 3, and Jagged-2) in SGT cells. Immunocytochemistry analysis showed that 5′-NIO specifically decreased the level of Notch-1 in the nucleus. In addition, 5′-NIO induced G1 cell cycle arrest by reducing levels of CDK4 and CDK6 in SGT cells. Using flow cytometry and immunoblotting analysis, we found that 5′-NIO induces apoptosis following the secretion of cytochrome c and the activation of caspase-3 and caspase-7. Intracellular Notch-1 overexpression led to a decrease in G1 phase arrest and an inhibition of 5′-NIO-induced apoptosis.Conclusion
These observations suggest that 5′-NIO induces cell cycle arrest and apoptosis by down-regulating Notch-1 signaling.General significance
This study identifies a new mechanism of 5′-NIO-mediated anti-tumor properties. Thus, 5′-NIO could be used as a candidate for salivary gland adenocarcinoma therapeutics. 相似文献3.

The integrity and regulation of the nuclear lamina is essential for nuclear organization and chromatin stability, with its dysregulation being linked to laminopathy diseases and cancer. Although numerous posttranslational modifications have been identified on lamins, few have been ascribed a regulatory function. Here, we establish that lamin B1 (LMNB1) acetylation at K134 is a molecular toggle that controls nuclear periphery stability, cell cycle progression, and DNA repair. LMNB1 acetylation prevents lamina disruption during herpesvirus type 1 (HSV-1) infection, thereby inhibiting virus production. We also demonstrate the broad impact of this site on laminar processes in uninfected cells. LMNB1 acetylation negatively regulates canonical nonhomologous end joining by impairing the recruitment of 53BP1 to damaged DNA. This defect causes a delay in DNA damage resolution and a persistent activation of the G1/S checkpoint. Altogether, we reveal LMNB1 acetylation as a mechanism for controlling DNA repair pathway choice and stabilizing the nuclear periphery. 相似文献

Progression through the G1-phase of the on-going cell cycle 总被引:7,自引:0,他引:7
Boonstra J 《Journal of cellular biochemistry》2003,90(2):244-252
Cell cycle progression is dependent upon the action of cyclins and their partners the cyclin dependent kinases (CDKs). Each cell cycle phase has its own characteristic cyclin-CDK combination, cyclin D-CDK4,6 and cyclin E-CDK2 being responsible for progression through G(1)-phase into S-phase. Progression through G(1)-phase is regulated by signal transduction cascades activated by polypeptide growth factors and by extracellular matrix (ECM) components. Studies aiming to unravel the molecular mechanism by which these extracellular components activate the cyclin-CDK complexes in the G(1)-phase, are usually performed using serum-starved cells (G(0) cells). These cells are activated by addition of growth factors, or the cells are detached from the substratum by trypsinization and subsequently allowed to re-attach. An alternative approach, however, is to study the effects of growth factors and attachment in the ongoing cell cycle by synchronization of the cells by the mitotic shake-off method. These cells are not serum starved and not actively detached from the substratum. In this contribution it is shown that both methods yield significant different results. These observations demonstrate that data obtained with model systems should be interpreted with care, especially if the findings are used to explain cell cycle progression in cells in an intact organism. 相似文献

Hormone-treated CHO cells exit the cell cycle in the G2 phase 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
In order to localize and identify receptor structures, the binding of radiolabeled thyrotropin releasing hormone (TRH) to thyrotropin (TSH)-secreting cells from rat and bovine anterior pituitaries and from a mouse TSH-secreting tumor was studied . The binding of TRH to rat anterior pituitaries increased linearly with the log of TRH concentration in the incubation medium. Plasma membranes were the only subcellular fractions isolated after incubation from bovine anterior pituitary and the TSH tumor which bound detectable quantities of TRH. 相似文献

Saccharomyces cerevisiae cells decide to divide during G1. If nutrients are abundant, cells pass through START and coordinately undergo DNA replication, bud emergence, and spindle pole body duplication. Phenotypic analysis of the slg1delta mutant revealed that this mutation uncouples post-START events. At the nonpermissive temperature, slg1delta cells that have undergone bud emergence but not DNA replication or SPB duplication accumulate. Furthermore, while wild-type cells arrest in GO when starved, the slg1delta mutant fails to arrest at this point; instead, cells with small buds accumulate. The slg1delta mutation displayed genetic interactions with cdc34, which encodes a regulator of exit from G1. This is consistent with a role of SLG1 in G1 regulation. Epitope-tagged Slg1p cofractionated with the plasma membrane, suggesting that Slglp may function by integrating external cues and relaying them to the interior of the cell. We propose that SLG1 plays a regulatory role in bud emergence or stationary phase. 相似文献

Heterotrimeric G protein signaling: Getting inside the cell 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
Heterotrimeric G proteins have traditionally been thought to transduce signals at the plasma membrane. In this issue, Slessareva et al. (2006) now show that a G protein alpha subunit acts at the endosome to stimulate a phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase to help yeast respond to mating pheromones. 相似文献

A protein named NVP(1) was isolated from Nidus vespae. The aim of the present study was to elucidate whether and how NVP(1) modulates the proliferation of HepG2 cells. NVP(1) at a concentration of 6.6 microg/ml could arrest the cell cycle at stage G1 and inhibit the mRNA expression of cyclinB, cyclinD1 and cyclinE. NVP(1) suppressed cdk2 protein expression, but increased p27 and p21 protein expression. However, NVP(1) did not alter p16 protein expression levels. NVP(1) promoted apoptosis in HepG2 cells as indicated by nuclear chromatin condensation, and in addition, the extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) signaling pathway was activated. Moreover, the p-ERK protein expression level was attenuated when the HepG2 cells were pretreated with ERK inhibitor PD98059. These results demonstrate that NVP(1) inhibits proliferation of HepG2 through ERK signaling pathway. NVP(1) could be a potential drug for liver cancer. 相似文献

Previous evidence has indicated that an intact centrosome is essential for cell cycle progress and that elimination of the centrosome or depletion of individual centrosome proteins prevents the entry into S phase. To investigate the molecular mechanisms of centrosome-dependent cell cycle progress, we performed RNA silencing experiments of two centrosome-associated proteins, pericentriolar material 1 (PCM-1) and pericentrin, in primary human fibroblasts. We found that cells depleted of PCM-1 or pericentrin show lower levels of markers for S phase and cell proliferation, including cyclin A, Ki-67, proliferating cell nuclear antigen, minichromosome maintenance deficient 3, and phosphorylated retinoblastoma protein. Also, the percentage of cells undergoing DNA replication was reduced by >50%. At the same time, levels of p53 and p21 increased in these cells, and cells were predisposed to undergo senescence. Conversely, depletion of centrosome proteins in cells lacking p53 did not cause any cell cycle arrest. Inhibition of p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase rescued cell cycle activity after centrosome protein depletion, indicating that p53 is activated by the p38 stress pathway. 相似文献

Heparin prevents vascular smooth muscle cell progression through the G1 phase of the cell cycle 总被引:12,自引:0,他引:12

To gain insight into the mechanism of the antiproliferative effects of heparin on vascular smooth muscle cells (SMC), the influence of this glycosaminoglycan on cell cycle progression and the expression of the c-fos, c-myc, and c-myb proto-oncogenes and two other growth-regulated genes was examined. SMC, synchronized by a serum-deprivation protocol, enter S phase 12-16 h after serum stimulation. Pretreatment with heparin for 48 h blocked the induction of histone H3 RNA, an S phase-expressed product, and prevented cell replication. Thus, heparin prevents entry of cells into S phase. Conversely, heparin had essentially no effect on changes in expression of the c-fos and c-myc proto-oncogenes during the G0 to G1 transition. Normal increases in c-fos and c-myc RNA were observed 30 min and 2 h following serum addition, respectively. However, the increase in expression of the mRNA of the c-myb proto-oncogene and the mitochondrial ATP/ADP carrier protein, 2F1, which begins to occur 8 h following serum addition to SMC, was completely inhibited by heparin. Two-dimensional polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of the products of a rabbit reticulocyte cell-free translation of RNA isolated at various times confirmed this temporal assessment of the effects of heparin. These results suggest that heparin does not inhibit cell proliferation by blocking the G0 to G1 transition. Rather, heparin may affect a critical event in the mid-G1 phase of the cell cycle which is necessary for subsequent DNA synthesis. 相似文献

Tissue homeostasis requires precise control of cell proliferation and arrest in response to environmental cues. In situation such as wound healing, injured cells are stimulated to divide, but as soon as confluence is reached proliferation must be blocked. Such reversible cell cycle exit occurs in G1, requires pRb family members, and is driven by p27Kip1-dependent Cdk inactivation. This implies that, while dividing, cells should simultaneously prepare the exit once mitosis is accomplished. For a long time, the decision to cycle or not was presumed to occur in G1, prior to the restriction point, beyond which the cells were bound to divide even in the absence of mitogens, before finally arresting after mitosis. However, more recent reports suggested that the commitment to cycle in response to serum occurs already in G2 phase and requires the Ras-dependent induction of cyclin D1, which promotes following G1/S transition. To test whether this hypothesis applies to arrest induced by contact inhibition, we used an in vitro wounding model where quiescent human dermal fibroblasts, stimulated to proliferate by mechanical injury, synchronously exit cell cycle after mitosis due to renewed confluence. We show that this exit is preceded by p27-dependent inhibition of cyclin A-Cdk1/2, cyclin D1 downregulation and reduced pre-mitotic pRb pocket protein phosphorylation. Over-expression of cyclin D1 but not p27 depletion reversed this phenotype and compromised confluence-driven cell cycle exit. Thus, a balance between cyclin D1 and p27 may provide sensitive responses to variations in proliferative cues operating throughout the cell cycle. 相似文献

The erbB receptor family (EGFr, erbB-2, erbB-3, and erbB-4) consists of transmembrane glycoproteins that transduce extracellular signals to the nucleus when activated. erbB family members are widely expressed in epithelial, mesenchymal, and neuronal cells and contribute to the proliferation, differentiation, migration, and survival of these cell types. The present study evaluates the effects of erbB family signaling on cell cycle progression and the role that pRB plays in regulating this process. ErbB family RTK activity was inhibited by PD 158780 in the breast epithelial cell line MCF10A. PD 158780 (0.5 microM) inhibited EGF-stimulated and heregulin-stimulated autophosphorylation and caused a G1 cell cycle arrest within 24 h, which correlated with hypophosporylation of pRB. MCF10A cells lacking functional pRB retained the ability to arrest in G1 when treated with PD 158780. Both cell lines showed induction of p27(KIP1) protein when treated with PD 158780 and increased association of p27(KIP1) with cyclin E-CDK2. Furthermore, CDK2 kinase activity was dramatically inhibited with drug treatment. Changes in other pRB family members were noted with drug treatment, namely a decrease in p107 and an increase in p130. These findings show that the G1 arrest induced through inhibition of erbB family RTK activity does not require functional pRB. 相似文献

Eukaryotic release factor 3 (eRF3) is a GTPase associated with eRF1 in a complex that mediates translation termination in eukaryotes. Studies have related eRF3 with cell cycle regulation, cytoskeleton organization, and tumorigenesis. In mammals, two genes encode two distinct forms of eRF3, eRF3a and eRF3b, which differ in their N-terminal domains. eRF3a is the major factor acting in translation termination, and its expression level controls termination complex formation. Here, we investigate the role of eRF3a in cell cycle progression using short interfering RNAs and flow cytometry. We show that eRF3a depletion induces a G1 arrest and that eRF3a GTP-binding activity, but not the eRF3a N-terminal domain, is required to restore G1-to-S-phase progression. We also show that eRF3a depletion decreases the global translation rate and reduces the polysome charge of mRNA. Finally, we show that two substrates of the mammalian TOR (mTOR) kinase, 4E-BP1 and protein kinase S6K1, are hypophosphorylated in eRF3a-depleted cells. These results strongly suggest that the G1 arrest and the decrease in translation induced by eRF3a depletion are due to the inhibition of mTOR activity and hence that eRF3a belongs to the regulatory pathway of mTOR activity. 相似文献

Forced changes in the expression of regulator of calcineurin 1 (RCAN1) affects cell growth. This has been linked to the suppression of calcineurin-nuclear factor of activated T cells signaling by RCAN1. Here, we describe a novel role of RCAN1 isoform 4 in proper expression of Ras protein and its signaling. RCAN1 isoform 4 knockdown attenuated growth factor-induced extracellular signal-regulated kinase activation and cell growth; reduced Ras levels and its translation rate; and led to a reduction of eukaryotic initiation factor 4E in the initiation complex and a slight repression of global protein synthesis. Experiments utilizing activity-modified mutants of calcineurin A demonstrated that these effects were calcineurin-independent. Our findings reveal a previously unknown role of RCAN1-4 in protein synthesis, which may be relevant to cell growth. 相似文献

In many normal and transformed cell types, the intracellular second messenger cyclic AMP (cAMP) blocks the effects of growth factors and serum on mitogenesis, proliferation, and cell cycle progression. cAMP exerts these growth-inhibitory effects via inhibition of the mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase cascade. Here, using Hek293 and NIH 3T3 cells, we show that cAMP's inhibition of the MAP kinase cascade is mediated by the small G protein Rap1. Activation of Rap1 by cAMP induces the association of Rap1 with Raf-1 and limits Ras-dependent activation of ERK. In NIH 3T3 cells, Rap1 is required not only for cAMP's inhibition of ERK activation but for inhibition of cell proliferation and mitogenesis as well. 相似文献

Folate deficiency contributes to impaired adult hippocampal neurogenesis, yet the mechanisms remain unclear. Here we use HT-22 hippocampal neuron cells as model to investigate the effect of folate deprivation (FD) on cell proliferation and apoptosis, and to elucidate the underlying mechanism. FD caused cell cycle arrest at G0/G1 phase and increased the rate of apoptosis, which was associated with disrupted expression of folate transport and methyl transfer genes. FOLR1 and SLC46A1 were (P < 0.01) down-regulated, while SLC19A1 was up-regulated (P < 0.01) in FD group. FD cells exhibited significantly (P < 0.05) higher protein content of BHMT, MAT2b and DNMT3a, as well as increased SAM/SAH concentrations and global DNA hypermethylation. The expression of the total and all the 3 classes of IGF-1 mRNA variants was significantly (P < 0.01) down-regulated and IGF-1 concentration was decreased (P < 0.05) in the culture media. IGF-1 signaling pathway was also compromised with diminished activation (P < 0.05) of STAT3, AKT and mTOR. CpG hypermethylation was detected in the promoter regions of IGF-1 and FOLR1 genes, while higher SLC19A1 mRNA corresponded to hypomethylation of its promoter. IGF-1 supplementation in FD media significantly abolished FD-induced decrease in cell viability. However, IGF-1 had limited effect in rescuing the cell phenotype when added 24 h after FD. Taken together, down-regulation of IGF-1 expression and signaling is involved in FD-induced cell cycle arrest and apoptosis in HT-22 hippocampal neuron cells, which is associated with an abnormal activation of methyl transfer pathway and hypermethylation of IGF-1 gene promoter. 相似文献

Upon DNA damage, cell cycle progression is temporally blocked to avoid propagation of mutations. While transformed cells largely maintain the competence to recover from a cell cycle arrest, untransformed cells past the G1/S transition lose mitotic inducers, and thus the ability to resume cell division. This permanent cell cycle exit depends on p21, p53, and APC/CCdh1. However, when and how permanent cell cycle exit occurs remains unclear. Here, we have investigated the cell cycle response to DNA damage in single cells that express Cyclin B1 fused to eYFP at the endogenous locus. We find that upon DNA damage Cyclin B1-eYFP continues to accumulate up to a threshold level, which is reached only in G2 phase. Above this threshold, a p21 and p53-dependent nuclear translocation required for APC/CCdh1-mediated Cyclin B1-eYFP degradation is initiated. Thus, cell cycle exit is decoupled from activation of the DNA damage response in a manner that correlates to Cyclin B1 levels, suggesting that G2 activities directly feed into the decision for cell cycle exit. Once Cyclin B1-eYFP nuclear translocation occurs, checkpoint inhibition can no longer promote mitotic entry or re-expression of mitotic inducers, suggesting that nuclear translocation of Cyclin B1 marks the restriction point for permanent cell cycle exit in G2 phase. 相似文献

Trophoblast stem (TS) cells proliferate in the presence of fibroblast growth factor 4, but in its absence, they differentiate into polyploid trophoblast giant (TG) cells that remain viable but nonproliferative. Differentiation is coincident with expression of the cyclin-dependent kinase (CDK)-specific inhibitors p21 and p57, of which p57 is essential for switching from mitotic cell cycles to endocycles. Here, we show that, in the absence of induced DNA damage, checkpoint kinase-1 (CHK1), an enzyme essential for preventing mitosis in response to DNA damage, functions as a mitogen-dependent protein kinase that prevents premature differentiation of TS cells into TG cells by suppressing expression of p21 and p57, but not p27, the CDK inhibitor that regulates mitotic cell cycles. CHK1 phosphorylates p21 and p57 proteins at specific sites, thereby targeting them for degradation by the 26S proteasome. TG cells lack CHK1, and restoring CHK1 activity in TG cells suppresses expression of p57 and restores mitosis. Thus, CHK1 is part of a "G2 restriction point" that prevents premature cell cycle exit in cells programmed for terminal differentiation, a role that CHK2 cannot play. 相似文献
