Cell cycle checkpoints are essential for the maintenance of genomic stability in response to DNA damage. We demonstrated recently that GADD45, a DNA damage-inducible protein, activates a G(2)/M checkpoint induced by either UV radiation or alkylating agents. GADD45 can interact in vivo with the G(2) cell cycle-specific kinase, Cdc2, proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA), and the cell cycle kinase inhibitor p21(waf1). The ability of GADD45 to induce a G(2)/M arrest may be caused in part by the inhibition of Cdc2 kinase activity. Here, we report the identification of a region of GADD45 that is involved in this G(2)/M checkpoint. Mutants of GADD45 that lacked either the first 35 or the last 80 residues still retained an ability to induce G(2)/M arrest. A mutant with a deletion of the central region (residues 50-76), which is conserved in the family members GADD45beta and GADD45gamma, lacked such activity. This mutant also lacked an ability to bind to Cdc2, PCNA, and p21(waf1) in vivo. Consistently, either GADD45beta or GADD45gamma bind to Cdc2 in vivo. However, unlike GADD45, neither GADD45beta nor GADD45gamma inhibited the Cdc2 kinase or induced G(2)/M arrest. The unique effect of GADD45 may be caused by the presence of a region containing DEDDDR residues. Alanine substitutions in the region abolished GADD45 induction of a G(2)/M arrest and its inactivation of the Cdc2 kinase but not its binding to Cdc2, PCNA, or p21(waf1). Therefore, the binding of GADD45 to Cdc2 was insufficient to induce a G(2)/M arrest, and additional activity contributed by the DEDDDR residues may be necessary to regulate the G(2)/M checkpoint. 相似文献

GADD45beta/GADD45gamma and MEKK4 comprise a genetic pathway mediating STAT4-independent IFNgamma production in T cells 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
The stress-inducible molecules GADD45beta and GADD45gamma have been implicated in regulating IFNgamma production in CD4 T cells. However, how GADD45 proteins function has been controversial. MEKK4 is a MAP kinase kinase kinase that interacts with GADD45 in vitro. Here we generated MEKK4-deficient mice to define the function and regulation of this pathway. CD4 T cells from MEKK4-/- mice have reduced p38 activity and defective IFNgamma synthesis. Expression of GADD45beta or GADD45gamma promotes IFNgamma production in MEKK4+/+ T cells, but not in MEKK4-/- cells or in cells treated with a p38 inhibitor. Thus, MEKK4 mediates the action of GADD45beta and GADD45gamma on p38 activation and IFNgamma production. During Th1 differentiation, the GADD45beta/GADD45gamma/MEKK4 pathway appears to integrate upstream signals transduced by both T cell receptor and IL12/STAT4, leading to augmented IFNgamma production in a process independent of STAT4. 相似文献

Mammalian cells and viruses encode inhibitors of programmed cell death that localize to mitochondria and suppress apoptosis initiated by a wide variety of inducers. Mutagenesis was used to probe the role of a predicted alpha-helical region within the hydrophobic antiapoptotic domain (AAD) of cytomegalovirus vMIA, the UL37x1 gene product. This region was found to be essential for cell death suppression activity. A screen for proteins that interacted with the AAD of functional vMIA but that failed to interact with mutants identified growth arrest and DNA damage 45 (GADD45alpha), a cell cycle regulatory protein activated by genotoxic stress, as a candidate cellular binding partner. GADD45alpha interaction required the AAD alpha-helical character that also dictated GADD45alpha-mediated enhancement of death suppression. vMIA mutants that failed to interact with GADD45alpha were completely nonfunctional in cell death suppression, and any of the three GADD45 family members (GADD45alpha, GADD45beta/MyD118, or GADD45gamma/OIG37/CR6/GRP17) was able to cooperate with vMIA; however, none influenced cell death when introduced into cells alone. GADD45alpha was found to increase vMIA protein levels comparably to treatment with protease inhibitors MG132 and ALLN. Targeted short interfering RNA knockdown of all three GADD45 family members maximally reduced vMIA activity, and this reduction was abrogated by additional GADD45alpha. Interestingly, GADD45 family members were also able to bind and enhance cell death suppression by Bcl-xL, a member of the Bcl-2 family of cell death suppressors, suggesting a direct cooperative link between apoptosis and the proteins that regulate the DNA damage response. 相似文献

Growth-arrest and DNA-damage inducible (GADD) genes and Myeloid differentiation primary response (MyD) genes represent a family of genes that play a key role in negative control of cell growth. In the present study, following clone and location of human GADD45 (MyDL) gene, we have found that its mRNA expression level was down-regulated in 15/23 cases of clinic hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) by comparing the northern hybridization results between the tumor tissues and adjacent normal tissues. Transient transfection of GADD45 cDNA with intact open reading frame sequence into the human hepatoma cells Hep-G2 resulted in dramatic growth suppression in colony formation assays. Furthermore, flow cytometry analysis indicated that GADD45 caused cell cycle arrest at G2/M transition when transfected into Hep-G2 cells. Therefore, the possible role of GADD45 in cell growth control was further confirmed in this paper. 相似文献

Growth arrest and DNA damage inducible 45 alpha (GADD45α) is a central player in mediating apoptosis induced by a variety
of stress stimuli and genotoxic agents. Regular usage of nonselective nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) such as
indomethacin and sulindac is associated with reduced risk for various cancers, including colon cancer. The role of GADD45α
in NSAID-induced colon cancer cell cytotoxicity is unknown. In this study, we report that indomethacin and sulindac sulfide
treatments up-regulate GADD45α mRNA expression and protein levels in colon cancer HT-29, RKO and Caco-2 cells. This up-regulation
of GADD45α is accompanied by necrotic cell death and apoptosis. Anti-sense suppression of GADD45α expression inhibited indomethacin
and sulindac sulfide-induced necrotic cell death and apoptosis. These findings confirm a role for GADD45α in NSAID-induced
cytotoxicity, a mechanism for the anti-neoplastic effect of NSAIDs in colon tumorigenesis and cancer growth. 相似文献

The stress-responding protein, GADD45α, plays important roles in cell cycle checkpoint, DNA repair and apoptosis. In our recent study, we demonstrate that GADD45α undergoes a dynamic ubiquitination and degradation in vivo, which process can be blocked by the cytotoxic reagent, arsenite, resulting in GADD45α accumulation to activate JNKs cell death pathway, thereby revealing a novel mechanism for the cellular GADD45α functional regulation. But the factors involved in GADD45α stability modulations are unidentified. Here, we demonstrated that MDM2 was an E3 ubiquitin ligase for GADD45α. One of MDM2-binding partner, ribosomal protein S7, interacted with and stabilized GADD45α through preventing the ubiquitination and degradation of GADD45α mediated by MDM2. This novel function of S7 is unrelated to p53 but seems to depend on S7/MDM2 interaction, for the S7 mutant lacking MDM2-binding ability lost its function to stabilize GADD45α. Further investigations indicated that arsenite treatment enhanced S7–MDM2 interaction, resulting in attenuation of MDM2-dependent GADD45α ubiquitination and degradation, thereby leading to GADD45α-dependent cell death pathway activation. Silencing S7 expression suppressed GADD45α-dependent cytotoxicity induced by arsenite. Our findings thus identify a novel function of S7 in control of GADD45α stabilization under both basal and stress conditions and its significance in mediating arsenite-induced cellular stress. 相似文献

GADD45, MyD118, and CR6 (also termed GADD45alpha, beta, and gamma) comprise a family of genes that encode for related proteins playing important roles in negative growth control, including growth suppression. Data accumulated suggest that MyD118/GADD45/CR6 serve similar but not identical functions along different apoptotic and growth suppressive pathways. It is also apparent that individual members of the MyD118/GADD45/CR6 family are differentially induced by a variety of genetic and environmental stress agents. The MyD118, CR6, and GADD45 proteins were shown to predominantly localize within the cell nucleus. Recently, we have shown that both MyD118 and GADD45 interact with proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA), a protein that plays a central role in DNA replication, DNA repair, and cell cycle progression, as well as with the universal cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor p21. In this work we show that also CR6 interacts with PCNA and p21. Moreover, it is shown that CR6 interacts with PCNA via a domain that also mediates interaction of both GADD45 and MyD118 with PCNA. Importantly, evidence has been obtained that interaction of CR6 with PCNA impedes the function of this protein in negative growth control, similar to observations reported for MyD118 and GADD45. 相似文献

G2/M arrest by 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 in ovarian cancer cells mediated through the induction of GADD45 via an exonic enhancer 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4

1,25-Dihydroxyvitamin D3 suppresses the growth of multiple human cancer cell lines by inhibiting cell cycle progression and inducing cell death. The present study showed that 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 causes cell cycle arrest at the G2/M transition through p53-independent induction of GADD45 in ovarian cancer cells. Detailed analyses have established GADD45 as a primary target gene for 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3. A DR3-type vitamin D response element was identified in the fourth exon of GADD45 that forms a complex with the vitamin D receptor.retinoid X receptor heterodimer in electrophoresis mobility shift assays and mediates the dose-dependent induction of luciferase activity by 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 in reporter assays. Chromatin immunoprecipitation assays have shown that the vitamin D receptor is recruited in a ligand-dependent manner to the exonic enhancer but not to the GADD45 promoter regions. In ovarian cancer cells expressing GADD45 antisense cDNA or GADD45-null mouse embryo fibroblasts, 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 failed to induce G2/M arrest. Taken together, these results identify GADD45 as an important mediator for the tumor-suppressing activity of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 in human ovarian cancer cells. 相似文献

Opposite effect of NF-kappa B and c-Jun N-terminal kinase on p53-independent GADD45 induction by arsenite 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4

Cell cycle checkpoint, a major genomic surveillance mechanism, is an important step in maintaining genomic stability and integrity in response to environmental stresses. Using cells derived from human bronchial epithelial cells, we demonstrate that NF-kappaB and c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) reciprocally regulate arsenic trioxide (arsenite)-induced, p53-independent expression of GADD45 protein, a cell cycle checkpoint protein that arrests cells at the G(2)/M phase transition. Inhibition of NF-kappaB activation by stable expression of a kinase-mutated form of IkappaB kinase caused increased and prolonged induction of GADD45 by arsenite. In contrast, the induction of GADD45 by arsenite was transient and less potent in cells where the NF-kappaB activation pathway was normal. Analysis of the cell cycle profile by flow cytometry indicated that NF-kappaB inhibition potentiates arsenite-induced G(2)/M cell cycle arrest. Abrogation of JNK activation, on the other hand, decreased GADD45 expression induced by arsenite, suggesting a role for JNK activation in GADD45 induction. These results indicate a molecular mechanism by which NF-kappaB and JNK may differentially contribute to cell cycle regulation in response to arsenite. 相似文献

Arsenite (As(III)), an effective chemotherapeutic agent for the acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) and multiple myeloma (MM), might be also a promise for the therapy of other cancers, including the solid tumors. However, the molecular bases of arsenite‐induced cytotoxicity in the tumor cells have not been fully defined. In this study, we have disclosed that arsenite effectively induces the apoptotic response in the HepG2 human hepatoma cells by triggering GADD45α induction and the subsequent activation of JNKs/AP‐1 cell death pathway. However, signaling events relating to GADD45α/JNKs/AP‐1 pathway activation have not been observed in HL7702 human diploid hepatic cells under the same arsenite exposure condition. Our results thus have illustrated the selective pro‐apoptotic role of arsenite in the hepatoma cells by activating GADD45α‐dependent cell death pathway whereas with little effect on the normal hepatic cells. The approaches to up‐regulate GADD45α levels might be helpful in improving the chemotherapeutic action of arsenite on certain solid tumors including hepatoma. J. Cell.

DNA mismatch repair-dependent activation of c-Abl/p73alpha/GADD45alpha-mediated apoptosis 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Li LS Morales JC Hwang A Wagner MW Boothman DA 《The Journal of biological chemistry》2008,283(31):21394-21403
Cells with functional DNA mismatch repair (MMR) stimulate G(2) cell cycle checkpoint arrest and apoptosis in response to N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine (MNNG). MMR-deficient cells fail to detect MNNG-induced DNA damage, resulting in the survival of "mutator" cells. The retrograde (nucleus-to-cytoplasm) signaling that initiates MMR-dependent G(2) arrest and cell death remains undefined. Since MMR-dependent phosphorylation and stabilization of p53 were noted, we investigated its role(s) in G(2) arrest and apoptosis. Loss of p53 function by E6 expression, dominant-negative p53, or stable p53 knockdown failed to prevent MMR-dependent G(2) arrest, apoptosis, or lethality. MMR-dependent c-Abl-mediated p73alpha and GADD45alpha protein up-regulation after MNNG exposure prompted us to examine c-Abl/p73alpha/GADD45alpha signaling in cell death responses. STI571 (Gleevec, a c-Abl tyrosine kinase inhibitor) and stable c-Abl, p73alpha, and GADD45alpha knockdown prevented MMR-dependent apoptosis. Interestingly, stable p73alpha knockdown blocked MMR-dependent apoptosis, but not G(2) arrest, thereby uncoupling G(2) arrest from lethality. Thus, MMR-dependent intrinsic apoptosis is p53-independent, but stimulated by hMLH1/c-Abl/p73alpha/GADD45alpha retrograde signaling. 相似文献

Transforming growth factor-beta-induced apoptosis is mediated by Smad-dependent expression of GADD45b through p38 activation 总被引:11,自引:0,他引:11

Transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-beta)-dependent apoptosis is important in the elimination of damaged or abnormal cells from normal tissues in vivo. In this report, we identify GADD45b as an effector of TGF-beta-induced apoptosis. GADD45b has been shown to be a positive mediator of apoptosis induced by certain cytokines and oncogenes. We show that Gadd45b is an immediateearly response gene for TGF-beta and that the proximal Gadd45b promoter is activated by TGF-beta through the action of Smad2, Smad3, and Smad4. We show that ectopic expression of GADD45b in AML12 murine hepatocytes is sufficient to activate p38 and to trigger apoptotic cell death, whereas antisense inhibition of Gadd45b expression blocks TGF-beta-dependent p38 activation and apoptosis. Furthermore, we also show that TGF-beta can activate p38 and induce apoptosis in mouse primary hepatocytes from wild-type mice, but not from Gadd45b-/- mice. All of these findings suggest that GADD45b participates in TGF-beta-induced apoptosis by acting upstream of p38 activation. 相似文献
