Activated phagocytes employ myeloperoxidase to generate glycolaldehyde, 2-hydroxypropanal, and acrolein. Because alpha-hydroxy and alpha,beta-unsaturated aldehydes are highly reactive, phagocyte-mediated formation of these products may play a role in killing bacteria and tumor cells. Using breast cancer cells, we demonstrate that glycolaldehyde inactivates glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase, glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase, and Cu,Zn superoxide dismutase, suppresses cell growth, and induces apoptosis. These results suggest that glycolaldehyde might be an important mediator of neutrophil anti-tumor activity. 相似文献

Prodigiosin induces cell death and morphological changes indicative of apoptosis in gastric cancer cell line HGT-1 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Gastric cancer is one of the most frequent malignancies and its treatment is far from satisfactory. The challenge to oncologists is the characterization of novel chemical entities with greater effectiveness. Prodigiosin is a red pigment produced by various bacteria including Serratia marcescens. Here we characterize the apoptotic action of prodigiosin in human gastric carcinoma cell line (HGT-1). Cells were assayed by the MTT assay, fragmentation pattern of DNA, Hoechst 33342 staining and study of actin microfilament architecture. Treatment of these cells with prodigiosin showed a constant decrease in viability by apoptosis. Morphological analysis of prodigiosin-treated cells demonstrated that prodigiosin induces cell shrinkage, chromatin condensation, reorganization of actin microfilament architecture, and detachment of cells from the cell culture substrate. Altogether these results suggest that prodigiosin induces apoptosis in HGT-1 human gastric cancer cells and raises the possibility of its use as a new chemotherapeutic drug. 相似文献

Bafilomycin A1, a specific inhibitor of H+-ATPases of the vacuolar type, was in the present study shown, at similar concentrations, to induce secretion of lysosomal enzyme and to elevate lysosomal pH in mouse macrophages. These results lend support to the previous suggestion of a triggering role for an increase in lysosomal pH and a permissive role for cytosolic pH in the exocytosis of macrophage lysosomal enzyme. Vacuolar H+-ATPases are present in the macrophage plasma membrane as well as in intracellular membranes, for example, those of the lysosomal and phagosomal compartments. Phagosomal acidification was shown to be achieved in part by a mechanism with a similar sensitivity to bafilomycin A1 as lysosomal H+ transport and in part by an early, bafilomycin A1-insensitive mechanism. We found a lesser sensitivity towards bafilomycin A1 of the lysosomal and phagosomal H+-ATPase than that localized in the plasma membrane, indicating differences among H+-ATPases at the subcellular level. Also, by attempts to mobilize lysosomal H+-ATPase to the plasma membrane, support was obtained for the notion that subcellular H+-ATPase populations differ and thus possibly could be differentially regulated. © 1995 Wiley-Liss, Inc. 相似文献

The yeast vacuolar proton-translocating ATPase (V-ATPase) is an excellent model for V-ATPases in all eukaryotic cells. Activity of the yeast V-ATPase is reversibly down-regulated by disassembly of the peripheral (V1) sector, which contains the ATP-binding sites, from the membrane (V0) sector, which contains the proton pore. A similar regulatory mechanism has been found in Manduca sexta and is believed to operate in other eukaryotes. We are interested in the mechanism of reversible disassembly and its implications for V-ATPase structure. In this review, we focus on (1) characterization of the yeast V-ATPase stalk subunits, which form the interface between V1 and V0, (2) potential mechanisms of silencing ATP hydrolytic activity in disassembled V1 sectors, and (3) the structure and function of RAVE, a recently discovered complex that regulates V-ATPase assembly. 相似文献

The yeast V-ATPase is highly similar to V-ATPases of higher organismsand has proved to be a biochemically and genetically accessible model formany aspects of V-ATPase function. Like other V-ATPases, the yeast enzymeconsists of a complex of peripheral membrane proteins, the V1sector, attached to a complex of integral membrane subunits, theV0 sector. Multiple pathways for biosynthetic assembly of theenzyme appear to be available to cells containing a full complement ofsubunits and enzyme activity may be further controlled during biosynthesis bya protease activity localized to the late Golgi apparatus. Surprisingly, theassembled V-ATPase is not a static structure. Instead, fully assembledV1V0 complexes appear to exist in a dynamic equilibriumwith inactive cytosolic V1 and membrane-bound V0complexes and this equilibrium can be rapidly shifted in response to changesin carbon source. The reversible disassembly of the yeast V-ATPase may be anovel regulatory mechanism, common to V-ATPases, that works in vivoin coordination with many other regulatory mechanisms. 相似文献

Vacuolar H+-ATPase in human breast cancer cells with distinct metastatic potential: distribution and functional activity 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4

Tumor cells thrive in a hypoxic microenvironment with an acidic extracellular pH. To survive in this harsh environment, tumor cells must exhibit a dynamic cytosolic pH regulatory system. We hypothesize that vacuolar H+-ATPases (V-ATPases) that normally reside in acidic organelles are also located at the cell surface, thus regulating cytosolic pH and exacerbating the migratory ability of metastatic cells. Immunocytochemical data revealed for the first time that V-ATPase is located at the plasma membrane of human breast cancer cells: prominent in the highly metastatic and inconspicuous in the lowly metastatic cells. The V-ATPase activities in isolated plasma membranes were greater in highly than in lowly metastatic cells. The proton fluxes via V-ATPase evaluated by fluorescence spectroscopy in living cells were greater in highly than in lowly metastatic cells. Interestingly, lowly metastatic cells preferentially used the ubiquitous Na+/H+ exchanger and HCO3-based H+-transporting mechanisms, whereas highly metastatic cells used plasma membrane V-ATPases. The highly metastatic cells were more invasive and migratory than the lowly metastatic cells. V-ATPase inhibitors decreased the invasion and migration in the highly metastatic cells. Altogether, these data indicate that V-ATPases located at the plasma membrane are involved in the acquisition of a more metastatic phenotype. metastasis; intracellular pH; migration; sodium ion/hydrogen ion exchanger; bicarbonate transport 相似文献

Interleukin 1-(IL-1) induces apoptosis in a glioblastoma-derived human cell line,exhibiting a poorly differentiated astrocytic phenotype. The apoptoticeffect was demonstrated by analyzing nuclear morphology, in situ DNAfragmentation, and by ELISA detection of cytoplasmatic nucleosomes. Wecorrelated the degree of differentiation of GL15 cells with theapoptotic response: 1) 4',6-diamidino-2-phenylindole staining, combined with glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) immunofluorescence, showed that the cells with apoptotic nuclei expresslow levels of GFAP; and 2) at 13 days of subculture, in amore differentiated state, GL15 cells did not respond with apoptosis toIL-1. In this cell line, nonrandom chromosome changes and theexpression of SV40 early region have been previously shown. Theinvolvement of p42/p44 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathwayin the induction of apoptosis by IL-1 was hypothesized. Previousstudies have shown that SV40 small T antigen partially inhibitsphosphatase 2A, leading to an enhancement of the steady-state activityof p42/p44 MAPK pathway. PD-098059, specific inhibitor of p42/p44 MAPKpathway, counteracts the apoptotic effect of IL-1, whereasSB-203580, specific inhibitor of p38 stress-activated protein kinase(SAPK) pathway, is ineffective. The imbalance between MAPK and SAPKpathways has been proposed as a key factor in determination of cellfate. Our results demonstrate that a further stimulation of p42/p44MAPK pathway can constitute a death signal in tumor cells in whichgenomic damage and MAPK pathway control alterations occur. 相似文献

Glycosylation of proteins is one of the most important post-translational modifications. Defects in the glycan biosynthesis result in congenital malformation syndromes, also known as congenital disorders of glycosylation (CDG). Based on the iso-electric focusing patterns of plasma transferrin and apolipoprotein C-III a combined defect in N- and O-glycosylation was identified in patients with autosomal recessive cutis laxa type II (ARCL II). Disease-causing mutations were identified in the ATP6V0A2 gene, encoding the a2 subunit of the vacuolar H+-ATPase (V-ATPase). The V-ATPases are multi-subunit, ATP-dependent proton pumps located in membranes of cells and organels. In this article, we describe the structure, function and regulation of the V-ATPase and the phenotypes currently known to result from V-ATPase mutations. A clinical overview of cutis laxa syndromes is presented with a focus on ARCL II. Finally, the relationship between ATP6V0A2 mutations, the glycosylation defect and the ARCLII phenotype is discussed. 相似文献

Interleukin (IL-) 6 is closely related to gastrointestinal diseases. The question of whether gastric epithelial cell contributes to IL-6 production remains undefined. We aim to evaluate the regulatory pathway of IL-6 expression in gastric epithelial cells, by using different inflammatory cytokines, endotoxin, or protein kinase modulators. IL-6 was measured by ELISA. Phorbol-12-myristate-13-acetate (PMA), calcium ionophore A23187, TNF-alpha, IL-1beta, oncostatin M (OSM) but not lipopolysaccharide stimulated IL-6 production from gastric epithelial cell line MKN-28. Blocking protein tyrosine kinase (PTK) activation by herbimycin A or genistein, or blocking NF-kappaB activation by pyrrolidinedithiocarbamate, reduced the IL-6 expression induced by TNF-alpha, IL-1beta and OSM. Dexamethasone mimicked this effect. Protein kinase (PK) C inhibitor only reduced the PMA and OSM induced IL-6 production. Both inhibitors and activators for PKA and G-protein as well as IL-10 had no effects on IL-6 expression. These results indicate that inflammatory cytokines are crucial for IL-6 regulation in gastric epithelial cells. The IL-6 signal pathway is mediated through PTK, NF-kappaB, and also involve PKC, intracellular calcium and sensitive to dexamethasone, but is not related to PKA, G-protein and IL-10. 相似文献

Concanamycin A (CMA) and concanamycin B (CMB) are specific inhibitors of vacuolar type H+-ATPase (V-ATPase). In our previous studies, intraperitoneal injection of CMB was shown to suppress the increase in CD8+ CTL population, but not to affect CD4+ and B220+ populations, in mice immunized with allogeneic tumors. To clarify the molecular basis of the selective decrease in the CD8+ CTL population by CMB, we have performed a series of in vitro experiments with use of CMA. Cell viability of the CD8+ population prepared from the immunized mice was preferentially decreased by CMA treatment. Moreover, in the CD8+ CTL clone, CMA induced a marked DNA fragmentation and nuclear condensation characteristic of apoptosis. Anti-CD3 or phorbol
ester accelerated the CMA-induced reduction in cell viability of the CD8+ CTL clone, but not CD4+ T cell clones. However, this rapid cell death was not accompanied by DNA fragmentation and nuclear condensation. Perforin
and granzyme B were unlikely to be involved in such cell death. Thus, our data suggest that V-ATPase activity is essential
for survival of CD8+ CTL especially when activated.

The V-ATPase is a membrane-bound protein complex which pumps protons across the membrane to generate a large proton motive force through the coupling of an ATP-driven 3-stroke rotary motor (V1) to a multistroke proton pump (Vo). This is done with near 100% efficiency, which is achieved in part by flexibility within the central rotor axle and stator connections, allowing the system to flex to minimise the free energy loss of conformational changes during catalysis. We have used electron microscopy to reveal distinctive bending along the V-ATPase complex, leading to angular displacement of the V1 domain relative to the Vo domain to a maximum of ~30°. This has been complemented by elastic network normal mode analysis that shows both flexing and twisting with the compliance being located in the rotor axle, stator filaments, or both. This study provides direct evidence of flexibility within the V-ATPase and by implication in related rotary ATPases, a feature predicted to be important for regulation and their high energetic efficiencies. 相似文献

Lysosomal regulation is a poorly understood mechanism that is central to degradation and recycling processes. Here we report that LAMTOR1 (late endosomal/lysosomal adaptor, MAPK and mTOR activator 1) downregulation affects lysosomal activation, through mechanisms that are not solely due to mTORC1 inhibition. LAMTOR1 depletion strongly increases lysosomal structures that display a scattered intracellular positioning. Despite their altered positioning, those dispersed structures remain overall functional: (i) the trafficking and maturation of the lysosomal enzyme cathepsin B is not altered; (ii) the autophagic flux, ending up in the degradation of autophagic substrate inside lysosomes, is stimulated. Consequently, LAMTOR1-depleted cells face an aberrant lysosomal catabolism that produces excessive reactive oxygen species (ROS). ROS accumulation in turn triggers p53-dependent cell cycle arrest and apoptosis. Both mTORC1 activity and the stimulated autophagy are not necessary to this lysosomal cell death pathway. Thus, LAMTOR1 expression affects the tuning of lysosomal activation that can lead to p53-dependent apoptosis through excessive catabolism. 相似文献

Irreversible pan-ErbB tyrosine kinase inhibitor CI-1033 induces caspase-independent apoptosis in colorectal cancer DiFi cell line 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

The epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) is overexpressed in the majority of colorectal carcinomas and represents a target for therapeutic interventions with signal transduction inhibitors. We investigated the ability of CI-1033 to induce apoptosis and inhibition of proliferation in the colorectal cancer cell lines DiFi and Caco-2, which both express high levels of EGFR. While in Caco-2 cells CI-1033 treatment at a concentration 0.1 μ M for 72 hours demonstrated only antiproliferative (53.7 ± 4.3%) but no pro-apoptotic effects, treatment of DiFi cells resulted in a reduced proliferation rate (31.4 ± 3.1%) and in apoptosis (44.2 ± 8.9%). In order to define proteins involved in the regulation of apoptosis, we aimed to determine differences in the proteome profile of both cell lines before and after treatment with CI-1033. Cellular proteins were analyzed by 2-D gel electrophoresis followed by computational image analysis and mass spectrometry. Our data show that DiFi cells differ from Caco-2 cells in nine significantly upregulated proteins, and their potential role in apoptosis is described. We demonstrate that induction of apoptosis was triggered via caspase-independent pathways. Overexpression of leukocyte elastase inhibitor (LEI) and translocation of cathepsin D to the cytosol accompanied by upregulation of other defined proteins resulted in Bax-independent AIF translocation from mitochondria into the nucleus and apoptosis. Definition of these proteins can pave the way for functional studies and contribute to a better understanding of the effects of CI-1033 and the pathways of caspase-independent cell death. 相似文献

Connective tissue growth factor induces apoptosis in human breast cancer cell line MCF-7 总被引:16,自引:0,他引:16

Connective tissue growth factor (CTGF) is a member of an emerging CCN gene family that is implicated in various diseases associated with fibro-proliferative disorder including scleroderma and atherosclerosis. The function of CTGF in human cancer is largely unknown. We now show that CTGF induces apoptosis in the human breast cancer cell line MCF-7. CTGF mRNA was completely absent in MCF-7 but strongly induced by treatment with transforming growth factor beta (TGF-beta). TGF-beta by itself induced apoptosis in MCF-7, and this effect was reversed by co-treatment with CTGF antisense oligonucleotide. Overexpression of CTGF gene in transiently transfected MCF-7 cells significantly augmented apoptosis. Moreover, recombinant CTGF protein significantly enhanced apoptosis in MCF-7 cells as evaluated by DNA fragmentation, Tdt-mediated dUTP biotin nick end-labeling staining, flow cytometry analysis, and nuclear staining using Hoechst 33258. Finally, recombinant CTGF showed no effect on Bax protein expression but significantly reduced Bcl2 protein expression. Taken together, these results suggest that CTGF is a major inducer of apoptosis in the human breast cancer cell line MCF-7 and that TGF-beta-induced apoptosis in MCF-7 cells is mediated, in part, by CTGF. 相似文献

Mimosine induces apoptosis in the HL60 human tumor cell line 总被引:1,自引:1,他引:0

Mimosine, a plant amino acid not found in proteins, has been widely used as a synchronizing agent, blocking the progression of cell cycle on the G1/S phase border. The mechanism by which this block is achieved is still unclear. We report that in HL60 cells the synchronization is related to an increase in apoptosis. Another human tumor cell line, K562, is insensitive to both phenomena thereby demonstrating that apoptosis observed in HL60 is line-specific. We hypothesize that the mimosine-induced apoptosis and alteration of the cell cycle is due to the inhibition of hypusine generation. 相似文献
