The half-lives of the p53 protein and both of the HA and HF clones were increased approximately 4 fold compared with the parental HeLa cells (16, 17, and 4 min, respectively).

Western blot analysis of immunoaffinity-purified p53 demonstrated that stabilization of p53 in the revertants was correlated with a reduction in the in vivo formation of complexes involving the E6 oncoprotein and p53. Stabilization of p53 function in the revertants did not result from mutations in either the p53 or E6-AP genes.

Moreover, exposure of the cells to PRL abrogated heat-induced HSF proteolysis. The present study was conducted to investigate whether HSF proteolysis is a component of the apoptotic process in this model. Initially, the effect of heat stress (41 degrees C for 1 h) on apoptosis, determined by agarose gel electrophoresis and flow cytometric analysis, was evaluated in PRL-dependent Nb2-11 cells and in an autonomous subline (Nb2-SFJCD1). Heat was found to induce HSF proteolysis concomitant with activation of apoptosis in each cell line; treatment with PRL blocked these effects. To determine whether HSF proteolysis occurred as a generalized phenomenon associated with apoptosis, the effects of other activators of this process were evaluated. Vinblastine, cycloheximide, and thapsigargin stimulated fragmentation of HSF and hydrolysis of DNA in each cell line. The addition of PRL blocked the effects of vinblastine but was ineffective in cells treated with either cycloheximide or thapsigargin. Iodoacetamide, a cysteine protease inhibitor that blocks HSF fragmentation, also inhibited apoptosis. In addition, Z-VAD, a general caspase antagonist, blocked vinblastine-induced fragmentation of HSF and DNA, suggesting that the enzyme responsible for proteolysis of the transcription factor was likely a caspase family member. The results suggest that proteolysis of HSF reflects the action of one or more caspases activated as a consequence of stimulation of cell death. It is concluded that HSF may represent a previously unrecognized substrate for caspases or other cysteine proteases activated during apoptosis.</p>","PeriodicalId":9753,"journal":{"name":"Cell growth & differentiation : the molecular biology journal of the American Association for Cancer Research","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1999-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"21452491","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To understand the molecular basis of such monitoring mechanism in human cells, we have been studying genes that regulate the mitotic checkpoint. Our early studies have led to the cloning of a full-length cDNA encoding MAD3-like protein (also termed BUBR1/MAD3/SSK1). Dot blot analyses show that BUBR1 mRNA is expressed in tissues with a high mitotic index but not in differentiated tissues. Western blot analyses show that in asynchronous cells, BUBR1 protein primarily exhibits a molecular mass of 120 kDa, and its expression is detected in most cell lines examined. In addition, BUBR1 is present during various stages of the cell cycle. As cells enter later S and G2, BUBR1 levels are increased significantly. Nocodazole-arrested mitotic cells obtained by mechanical shake-off contain BUBR1 antigen with a slower mobility on denaturing SDS gels. Phosphatase treatment restores the slowly migrating band to the interphase state, indicating that the slow mobility of the BUBR1 antigen is attributable to phosphorylation. Furthermore, purified recombinant His6-BUBR1 is capable of autophosphorylation. Our studies indicate that BUBR1 phosphorylation status is regulated during spindle disruption.

Consistent with impaired cell cycle progression through S-phase, insulin-stimulated Sparc -/- cells also revealed reduced expression of two key regulators of S phase progression (cyclin A and thymidine kinase), whereas expression of the G1 phase progression regulators cmyc or cyclin D1 was unaffected. An examination of the status of retinoblastoma family pocket proteins in Sparc -/- cells revealed a selective and dramatic reduction in levels of the retinoblastoma-related protein p107.

These effects have been well characterized in colonic cell lines in vitro. We investigated the role of beta-catenin-Tcf signaling in these responses to butyrate and other well-characterized inducers of apoptosis of colonic epithelial cells. Unlike wild-type APC, which down-regulates Tcf activity, butyrate, as well as sulindac and trichostatin A, all inducers of G0-G1 cell cycle arrest and apoptosis in the SW620 colonic carcinoma cell line, up-regulate Tcf activity. In contrast, structural analogues of butyrate that do not induce cell cycle arrest or apoptosis and curcumin, which stimulates G2-M arrest without inducing apoptosis, do not alter Tcf activity. Similar to the cell cycle arrest and apoptotic cascade induced by butyrate, the up-regulation of Tcf activity is dependent upon the presence of a mitochondrial membrane potential, unlike the APC-induced down-regulation, which is insensitive to collapse of the mitochondrial membrane potential. Moreover, the butyrate-induced increase in Tcf activity, which is reflected in an increase in beta-catenin-Tcf complex formation, is independent of the down-regulation caused by expression of wild-type APC. Thus, butyrate and wild-type APC have different and independent effects on beta-catenin-Tcf signaling. These data are consistent with other reports that suggest that the absence of wild-type APC, associated with the up-regulation of this signaling pathway, is linked to the probability of a colonic epithelial cell entering an apoptotic cascade.</p>","PeriodicalId":9753,"journal":{"name":"Cell growth & differentiation : the molecular biology journal of the American Association for Cancer Research","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1999-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"21407798","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
