BACKGROUND: the inhibition of histone deacetylase (HDAC) has been reported as an effective mechanism on therapy in neoplastic diseases. Among HDAC inhibitors, Trichostatin A (TSA) and Valproic Acid (VPA) prevent the tumorigenesis in rodent and human models. Malformations as neural tube and axial skeletal defects are well-known VPA side effects. Recent hypotheses suggest the HDAC inhibitor activity as the teratogenic mechanism of VPA. The teratogenic potency of TSA is, at the moment, unknown. The aim of the present work is to investigate the HDAC inhibition on embryos exposed in utero to TSA or VPA and to compare the teratogenic potential of these two molecules on the axial skeleton morphogenesis. METHODS: Pregnant CD mice were i.p. treated on day 8 post coitum (9.00 a.m.) with 400 mg/kg VPA or with 0, 2, 4, 8, 16 mg/kg TSA. Embryos explanted 1 hr after the treatment from some females exposed to 400 mg/kg VPA or to 16 mg/kg TSA were processed for Western blotting and immunohistochemical analysis, in order to evaluate the histone hyperacetylation in the total embryo homogenates and to visualize the hyperacetylated tissues. Foetuses at term were processed for skeletal examination. RESULTS: Both VPA and TSA were able to induce hyperacetylation on embryos, specifically at the level of the caudal neural tube and of somites. At term, TSA showed teratogenic effects at the axial skeleton, quite similar to those observed after VPA exposure. CONCLUSIONS: In conclusion, both VPA and TSA are teratogenic in mice. A direct correlation between somite hyperacetylation and axial abnormalities could suggest the HDAC inhibition as the mechanism of the teratogenic effects. 相似文献

The aim of the present study is to investigate the effect of histone deacetylase inhibitor, trichostatin A (TSA) on the cell growth, apoptosis, genomic DNA damage and the expression of telomerase and associated factors in human normal and brain cancer cells. Here, human normal un-transformed fibroblasts (MRC-5), human normal hTERT-immortalised fibroblasts (hTERT-BJ1) and human brain cancer cell lines (glioblastoma cell line, A-172 and medulloblastoma cell line, ONS-76) were treated with 0.5–3.0 μM TSA for 24 h. Exposure to TSA resulted in apoptosis in a dose-dependent manner in the brain cancer cells. Glioblastoma cell line (A-172) displayed higher sensitivity to TSA-induced cell killing effect and apoptosis than the medulloblastoma cell line (ONS-76). The brain cancer cell lines and hTERT-BJ1 cell line displayed significant inhibition in telomerase activity and hTERT mRNA level after 2 μM TSA treatment. Elevated expressions of p53 and p21 with a decrease in cyclin-D level supported the observation on cell cycle arrest following TSA treatment. Upregulation of Bax and cytochrome c correlated with the apoptotic events in TSA-treated cells. This study suggests that telomerase and hTERT might be the primary targets of TSA which may have the potential to be used as a telomerase inhibitor in cancer therapy. 相似文献

This study investigated the effects of the histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitor trichostatin A (TSA) on cartilage degradation in an experimental model of osteoarthritis (OA). Thirty-two male New Zealand rabbits underwent unilateral anterior cruciate ligament transection (ACLT) on left knee joints to induce OA and were randomly divided into two groups (n = 16), the TSA group was injected intra-articularly with 0.3 ml TSA [250 ng/ml in the dimethylsulphoxide (DMSO)], the OA group received DSMO since 4 weeks after operation once a week for 5 weeks. Rabbits were killed seven days after the last injection. Left knee cartilage was harvested for morphological, histological and genetic analysis. Another ten rabbits were used for normal control and received no injection. The TSA group showed less cartilage degradation as compared to the OA group assessed by morphological and histological evaluation. Gene expression of matrix metalloproteinase-1 (MMP-1), MMP-3, MMP-13, and interleukin-1 (IL-1) was increased significantly in the OA group compared to the normal group. The elevated expression was reduced by TSA. Our results suggest that TSA could be considered as a potential agent for treatment for OA. 相似文献

We hypothesized that the neuroprotective role of the standardized Ginkgo biloba (Ginkgoaceae) extract EGb 761 under hypoxic conditions might be associated with its function to increase HIF-1 activity based on the fact that oxygen availability is crucial for cellular metabolism and viability and that HIF-1 plays an essential role in cellular oxygen homeostasis under hypoxic conditions. In this study, we therefore investigated the effects of ginkgolides, the main constituent of the non-flavone fraction of EGb 761, on the content and activity of HIF-1alpha, a key factor to determine HIF-1 activity, in hypoxic PC12 cells induced by cobalt chloride. Our data demonstrated that ginkgolides have a significant protective role against hypoxia-induced injury in the PC12 cells. The findings also strongly support our hypothesis that the protective role of ginkgolides is due to the up-regulation of HIF-1alpha protein expression and modification through the ginkgolides-induced activation of the p42/p44 MAPK pathway. In addition, it was evident that ginkgolides could significantly increase the HIF-1 DNA binding activity, which might also be associated with the protective effects of ginkgolides by promoting the expression of target genes of HIF-1 under hypoxic conditions. 相似文献

ErbB3 transactivation can make tumor cells resistance to ErbB1/ErbB2 targeting drugs. This urges for a reliable method to determine cell surface ErbB3 levels, but in our hands iodinated NRG1β is unstable and tends to underestimate the number of ErbB3 receptors in a radio-receptor assay. Here we show by the use of a radio-labeled high affinity neuregulin mutant NRG/YYDLL that ErbB3 levels can be determined in a reliable manner by Scatchard analysis. Furthermore we show by differential competition with unlabeled NRG/YYDLL and betacellulin that the number of ErbB3 and ErbB4 receptors can be quantified separately on cultured human breast cancer cells. 相似文献

Methotrexate (MTX) is a dihydrofolate reductase (DHFR) inhibitor widely used for treating human cancers, and overexpression of histone deacetylase (HDAC) is usually found in tumors. HDAC inhibitors (HDACi) can reactivate tumor suppressor genes and serve as potential anti-cancer drugs. In this study, we found that MTX shared structural similarity with some HDACi and molecular modeling showed that MTX indeed docks into the active site of HDLP, a bacterial homologue of HDAC. Subsequent in vitro assay demonstrated MTX’s inhibition on HDAC activity in human cancer cells. The global acetylation of histone H3 was also induced by MTX. Moreover, MTX inhibited immunoprecipitated HDAC1/2 activity but not their protein levels. This study provides evidence that MTX inhibits HDAC activity. 相似文献

Bim plays a crucial role in synergistic induction of apoptosis by the histone deacetylase inhibitor SBHA and TRAIL in melanoma cells 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3

The wide variation in sensitivity of cancer cells to TRAIL- or histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitor – induced apoptosis precludes
successful treatment of cancer with these agents. We report here that TRAIL and SBHA synergistically induce apoptosis of melanoma
cells as revealed by quantitative analysis using the normalized isobologram method. This is supported by enhanced activation
of caspase-3 and cleavage of its substrates, PARP and ICAD. Co-treatment with SBHA and TRAIL did not enhance formation of
the death-inducing signaling complex (DISC) and processing of caspase-8 and Bid, but potentiated activation of Bax and release
of Cytochrome C and Smac/DIABLO from mitochondria into the cytosol. SBHA down-regulated Bcl-XL, Mcl-1 and XIAP, but up-regulated Bax, Bak, and the BH3-only protein BimEL. Up-regulation of the latter by SBHA was attenuated by the presence of TRAIL, which was inhibitable by the pan-caspase inhibitor
z-VAD-fmk. Inhibition of Bim by siRNA attenuated conformational changes of Bax, mitochondrial apoptotic events, and activation
of caspase-3, leading to marked inhibition of the synergy between SBHA and TRAIL. Thus, Bim plays an essential role in synergistic
induction of apoptosis by SBHA and TRAIL in melanoma.

Histone deacetylases (HDACs) are modification enzymes that regulate a plethora of biological processes. HDAC1, a crucial epigenetic modifier, is deregulated in cancer and subjected to a variety of post-translational modifications. Here, we describe the generation of a new monoclonal antibody that specifically recognizes a novel highly dynamic prophase phosphorylation of serine 406-HDAC1, providing a powerful tool for detecting early mitotic cells. 相似文献

The histone deacetylase inhibitor trichostatin A (TsA) potently induces 5-lipoxygenase (5-LO) promoter activity in reporter gene assays as well as 5-LO mRNA expression. We identified two proximal Sp1/Sp3 binding sites in the 5-LO gene promoter mediating the TsA effect in both 5-LO-negative HeLa cells and in 5-LO expressing Mono Mac 6 (MM6) cells, the tandem GC-boxes, by contrast, were not important for the TsA effect. TsA neither altered the protein expression levels of Sp1/Sp3 nor of the histone deacetylases HDAC1/2, nor did it apparently change the protein complex formation by these factors. Also, treatment of cells with TsA did not change the binding affinity of Sp1/Sp3 in cell extracts, as tested by DAPA analysis using probes containing the proximal GC boxes. However, in the living cell TsA induced Sp1, Sp3 and RNA polymerase II recruitment to the 5-LO promoter without changing the acetylation status of histone protein H4. Cotransfection studies suggest that both Sp1 and Sp3 can mediate the TsA effect. This is the first report demonstrating that Sp3 is involved in the regulation of 5-LO promoter activity. In summary, we show that TsA increases 5-LO promoter activity by the enhanced recruitment of Sp1 and Sp3 to the 5-LO promoter. 相似文献
