Epithelial growth factor receptor (EGFR) has been proposed as a target for anticancer therapy. ZD1839 (Iressa) is a quinazoline derivative that selectively inhibits the EGFR tyrosine kinase activity and is under clinical use in cancer patients. However, the molecular mechanisms involved in ZD1839-mediated anticancer effects remain largely uncharacterized. In this study, exposure of human lung adenocarcinoma A549 cells to ZD1839 caused G1 arrest, and subsequently induced apoptosis. Moreover, ZD1839 increased the protein levels of p27(KIP1) and retinoblastoma-related Rb2/p130 while decreased the expression of cyclin-dependent kinase-2 (CDK2), CDK4, CDK6 and cyclin-D1, cyclin-D3. In vitro kinase assay showed that ZD1839 decreased these CDKs expression in A549 cells, leading to significantly reduce their kinase activities. In addition, ZD1839-induced death of A549 cells with characteristics of apoptosis including apoptotic morphological changes, DNA fragmentation and enhancement of TUNEL-positive cell. These events were accompanied by a marked increase of Fas protein expression, and activation of caspase-2, -3, -8. Co-treatment of cells with Fas antagonist antibody significantly blocked ZD1839-induced apoptosis. Caspase-8 and caspase-3 inhibitors, but not a caspase-9 inhibitor, were also capable of restoring cell viability. Our results indicate that downregulation of the expression and function of CDK2, CDK4, CDK6, cyclin-D1 and cyclin-D3, as well as upregulation of p27(KIP1) and pRb2/p130, are strong candidates for the cell cycle regulator that arrests ZD1839-treated A549 cells at G1 phase. Furthermore, upregulation of Fas appears to play a major role in the initiation of ZD1839-induced apoptosis, activation of caspase-8/caspase-3 cascade is involved in the execution phase of this death program. 相似文献

Inhibition of angiogenesis is becoming one promising, alternative approach to stop tumor from growth and spreading to distant organs. TNP-470, an analog of fumagillin, possesses potent anti-angiogenic effects with minimal toxicity in animal tumor models and is now in the phase III of human cancer trial. Although TNP-470 induced endothelial cell cycle arrest at G1 phase via p53 and p21(Cip1), the underlying mechanism of the cytostatic effect of TNP-470 on endothelial cells remains limited. We have found that TNP-470 did not only induce p53 and p21(Cip1) but also cyclin D1 in the basic fibroblast growth factors (bFGF)-treated endothelial cells. The TNP-470-mediated increase of cyclin D1 protein was due to the enhanced expression of mRNA. The induced cyclin D1 formed a complex with cyclin-dependent kinase4 (CDK4) and p21(Cip1). The ability of cyclin D1-associated CDK4 to phosphorylate retinoblastoma (Rb) protein was, however, reduced in the same cells. TNP-470 also significantly increased senescence-associated-beta-galactosidase activity (SA-gal), hallmark of cells undergoing senescence. Interestingly, the effect of increased cyclin D1 protein mimicked by overexpression of cyclin D1 increased the sensitivity of human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) to TNP-470. In summary, the cytostatic effect of TNP-470 on endothelial cells is in part mediated by induction of senescence and cyclin D1 is a key molecule participating in this event. 相似文献

Results of treatment in childhood acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (ALL) remain unsatisfactory because relapses occur even after high-dose chemotherapy. Corticosensitivity is used in numerous therapeutic trials as a prognostic factor for treatment choice. The aim of this study was to evaluate the role of cell cycle regulatory protein expression before and during the first 48 h of corticotherapy for predicting corticosensitivity. Fifty-two children presenting with ALL were studied at diagnosis and during the first 48 h of treatment for cell proliferation and apoptosis level by measurement of DNA content, and for expression of several cell proliferation regulatory proteins by means of Western blot. Glucocorticoids induced a significant decrease in the percentage of cells in S-phase and in CDK1, CDK4 and CDK6 expression and an increase in the percentage of cells in subG1 peak. Two criteria for corticosensitivity were used: (i) the number of blast cells after 7 d of treatment with a threshold at 1 x 109/l (usual criterion), (ii) the J8/J1 blast cell ratio, which is independent from initial leucocytosis. Bcl-2 expression at diagnosis was the best predictive variable for the usual corticosensitivity criterion in B- and T-cell ALL. For the second criterion, in B-cell ALL, p21waf1 expression at diagnosis was the sole (albeit poorly) predictive variable, whereas bcl-2 remained of high interest in T-cell ALL. Interestingly, these proteins, bcl-2 and p21waf1, are associated with prolonged cell lifespan and their increased expression is often linked to poor response to cytotoxic drugs. Such preliminary results call for subsequent studies on large independent sets of T-cell and B-cell lineage ALL in order to confirm the J8/J1 blast cell ratio value as well as the role of bcl-2 and p21waf1 expression in predicting corticosensitivity. 相似文献

Progression through eukaryotic cell division cycle is regulated by synergistic activities of both positive and negative regulatory factors. The active form of vitamin D3 (1α,25(OH)2D3, 1,25D) and a number of its synthetic analogs have been shown to arrest cells in the G1 phase of the cell cycle. In the present study, 1α,25(OH)2D3 and the analogs KH1060, EB1089, and CB1093 were used to study the mechanism of the cell cycle arrest and to compare the effectiveness of these compounds in human MG-63 osteosarcoma cells. The 20-epi analogs KH1060 and CB1093, as well as the 20-normal analog EB1089, were found to be more potent than 1α,25(OH)2D3 in inhibiting cell proliferation and arresting the MG-63 cells in the G1 phase. These analogs were more active than 1α,25(OH)2D3 in increasing the cyclin dependent kinase inhibitor p27 protein levels (approximately 2.3-2.5-fold compared to 1α,25(OH)2D3) by both increasing its formation and decreasing its degradation rate. The increased p27 formation was accompanied by stabilization of binding of nuclear proteins to the Sp1+NF-Y responsive promoter region of the p27 gene. The increase in p27 protein levels and the simultaneous decrease in cyclin E protein levels was accompanied by decreased Cdk2 kinase activity, retinoblastoma (Rb) protein hypophosphorylation and, finally, cell cycle arrest in the G1 phase. In summary, the analogs KH1060, EB1089, and CB1093 keep Rb protein in its growth-suppressing, hypophosphorylated form and prevent cell cycle progression through the restriction point. Therefore, these synthetic vitamin D3 analogs may be potential candidates for treating diseases, where cell cycle regulation is needed. 相似文献

Cell-cycle regulatory proteins in human wound healing 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Proper healing of mucosal wounds requires careful orchestration of epithelial cell migration and proliferation. To elucidate the molecular basis of the lack of cellular proliferation in the migrating 'epithelial tongue' during the re-epithelialization of oral mucosal wounds, the expression of cell-cycle regulators critical for G(1)-phase progression and S-phase entry was here analysed immunohistochemically. Compared to normal human mucosa, epithelia migrating to cover 2- or 3-day-old wounds made either in vivo or in an organotypic cell culture all showed loss of the proliferation marker Ki67 and cyclins D(1) and A, and reduced expression of cyclins D(3) and E, the cyclin D-dependent kinase 4 (CDK4), the MCM7 component of DNA replication origin complexes and the retinoblastoma protein pRb. Among the CDK inhibitors (CKIs), p16ink4a and p21Cip1 were moderately increased and decreased, respectively, whereas the abundance of most of the CKIs, including p27Kip1, p57Kip2, p15ink4b and p18ink4c, was relatively maintained in the migrating epithelial tongue. These data indicate that downmodulation of several G(1)/S-phase cyclins and a relative excess of CKIs may cooperate to ensure the quiescent state of migrating keratinocytes during wound healing. 相似文献

Nitrogen oxides (NOx) are important indoor and outdoor air pollutants. Many studies have indicated that NOx gas causes lung tissue damage by its oxidation properties and its free radicals. In a previous study we demonstrated that NOx gas induced proliferation of human lung fibroblast MRC-5 cells. In this study we show that NOx gas stimulates MRC-5 cell proliferation by retinoblastoma (Rb) phosphorylation via activation of cyclin-cell division protein kinase (cdk) complexes [correction]. Western blot and immunoprecipitation data showed that NOx gas increased the expressions of cyclinA/cdk2, cyclinD1/cdk4, and cyclinE/cdk2 complexes in the cells at 9 h after treatment. The levels of phospho-Rb were also increased and cdk inhibitors (CKIs) p27 and p16 were apparently decreased. These data suggested that NOx gas stimulates cell-cycle progression by Rb phosphorylation via activation of cyclin-cdk complexes and inhibition of CKIs. In conclusion, the NOx-gas that induced lung fibroblast cell proliferation by stimulation of cell-cycle progression may contribute to lung fibrosis by NOx pollutants. 相似文献
