  • Protein kinase CK2 downregulation induces premature senescence in various human cell types via activation of the reactive oxygen species (ROS)-p53-p21Cip1/WAF1 pathway. The transcription factor "nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2" (Nrf2) plays an important role in maintaining intracellular redox homeostasis. In this study, Nrf2 overexpression attenuated CK2 downregulation-induced ROS production and senescence markers including SA-β-gal staining and activation of p53-p21Cip1/WAF1 in human breast (MCF-7) and colon (HCT116) cancer cells. CK2 downregulation reduced the transcription of Nrf2 target genes, such as glutathione S-transferase, glutathione peroxidase 2, and glutathione reductase 1. Furthermore, CK2 downregulation destabilized Nrf2 protein via inhibiting autophagic degradation of Kelch-like ECH-associated protein 1 (Keap1). Finally, CK2 downregulation decreased the nuclear import of Nrf2 by deactivating AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK). Collectively, our data suggest that both Keap1 stabilization and AMPK inactivation are associated with decreased activity of Nrf2 in CK2 downregulation-induced cellular senescence.

  • Endocrine disrupting compounds (EDC's) are chemicals that either mimic endogenous hormones interfering with pharmacokinetics or act by other mechanisms. Some endocrine disrupters were reported to be chemical substances that cause apoptosis in cells. A number of reports have indicated that 1,3-DCP, one of the EDC's may act as an endocrine disrupter and also has possible carcinogenic effects. 1,3-DCP, present in commercial protein hydrolysates used for human nutrition, are genotoxic and 1,3-dichloro-2-propanol induced tumors in rats. In the present study, it was investigated whether 1,3-DCP induces ROS generation and apotosis in A549 adenocarcinoma cells. Here we show that 1,3-DCP inhibits the growth of lung cancer cell lines and generates reactive oxygen species (ROS), a major cause of DNA damage and genetic instability, It was investigated that 1,3-DCP increases G1 phase cells after 12 hours, thereafter abruptly draws A549 cells to G0 state after 24 hours by flow cytometric analysis. 1,3-DCP induces p53 and $p21^{Cip1/WAF1}$ activation time- and dose-dependently by 24 hours, while the level $p21^{Cip1/WAF1}$ was decreased after 48 hours. These results suggest that 1,3-DCP, an EDC's generates ROS and regulates genes involved with cell cycle and apoptosis.

  • Background: Prostate cancer is the second most common male cancer and remains a leading cause of cancer death worldwide. Heterogeneity regarding recurrence, tumor progression and therapeutic response reflects the inadequacy of traditional prognostic factors and underlies interest in new genetic and molecular markers. In this work, we studied the prognostic value of the expression of 9 proteins, Ki-67, p53, Bcl-2, PSA, HER2, E-cadherin, $p21^{WAF1/Cip1}$, $p27^{Kip1}$ and $p16^{ink4a}$ in prostate cancer. Materials and Methods: We conducted a retrospective study of 50 prostate cancers diagnosed in Pathology Department of Farhet Hached Hospital, Sousse, Tunisia, during a period of 12 months. Clinico-pathological data and survival were investigated. Protein expression was analyzed by immunohistochemistry on archived material. Results: Expression or over-expression of Ki-67, p53, Bcl-2, PSA, HER2, E-Cadherin, $p21^{WAF1/Cip1}$, $p27^{Kip1}$ and $p16^{ink4a}$ was observed in 68%, 24%, 32%, 78%, 12%, 90%, 20%, 44% and 56% of cases, respectively. Overall five-year survival was 68%. A statistically significant correlation was observed between death occurrence and advanced age (p=0.018), degree of tumor differentiation (p=0.0001), perineural invasion (p=0.016) and metastasis occurrence (p=0.05). Death occurrence was significantly correlated with the expression of p53 (p=0.007), Bcl-2 (p=0.02), Ki-67 (p=0.05) and $p27^{Kip1}$ (p=0.04). Conclusions: The p53, Bcl-2, Ki-67 and $p27^{Kip1}$ proteins may be useful additional prognostic markers for prostate cancer. The use of these proteins in clinical practice can improve prognosis prediction, disease screening and treatment response of prostatic cancer.

  • 목적 : 세포 독성 인자가 유도하는 아포프토시스에 관한 연구가 대부분 In Vitro 연구에 국한되어온 바, In VIVO에서 방사선에 의한 아포프토시스의 유도와 이에 관여하는 유전자들의 발현 양상을 분석하기 위하여 본 연구를 수행하였다. 대상 및 방법 : 마우스 동종암으로서 방사선 민감 종양인 난소암 (OC3-1)과 내성 종양인 간암 (HCa-1)을 모델로 하여 이들 종양이 평균 직경 8 mm로 자랐을 때 25 Gy의 방사선을 조사하였다. 조사 후 다양한 시간 간격으로 조직을 채취하여 아포프토시스의 유도 수준을 분석하며 동시에 이에 관련된 유전자 산물인 p53, $p21^{wart/cip1}$, bax, bel-2 등의 발현을 western blotting 을 이용하여 분석하였다. 종양의 p53 상태는 polymerase chain reaction-single strand conformation polymorphism assay로 분석하였다. 결과 : 모델 종양들의 p53 상태는 둘다 자연형으로 나타났다. 방사선 조사로 OCa-1에서는 아포프토시스가 유도되었으나 HCa-1에서는 아포프토시스가 관찰되지 않았다. OCa-1에서 방사선 조사로 p53, $p21^{wart/cip1}$의 발현이 증가되었으며 bel-2/ bax 비율은 감소하였다. HCa기에서는 p53, $p21^{wart/cip1}$의 발현이 증가되었으나 $p21^{wart/cip1}$은 OCa-1과 비교하여 증가 수준이 미약하였다. bel-2/bax 비율은 현저히 증가하였다. 이와 같은 변화들은 방사선 조사에 선행되거나 조사 후 수시간 내에 일어났으며 아포프토시스의 유도에 선행하거나 일치하였다. 결론 : 아포프토시스의 진행에는 p53, $p21^{wart/cip1}$의 증가 뿐만 아니라 bel-21 bax 비율의 변화 가 관여된다는 것이 In vivo에서 확인되었다. p53가 자연형인 경우에도 그 이하 단계의 유전자 발현 양상이 다르게 나타날 수 있으며 이는 세포 독성 요인을 이용한 암 치료시 결과를 예측하는데 있어서 단일 유전자 발현의 평가와 연계되는 복잡성을 시사하고 있다.

  • 본 연구는 유근피(root bark of Ulmus davidiana)에서 분리한 화합물인 hederagenin 3-O-b-D-glucopyranosyl($1{\rightarrow}3$)-a-L-rhamnopyranosyl($1{\rightarrow}2$)-a-L-arabinopyranoside (HDL)을 이용하여 $CoCl_2$에 의해 생성된 ROS에 대한 항산화 기전을 밝히기 위하여, ROS 생성과 관련된 산화 효소 및 항산화 효소에 대한 저해효과를 조사하였다. 또한 HDL이 $CoCl_2$에 의해 생성된 ROS의 조절을 통해 산화적 스트레스와 관련된 단백질 발현 및 세포주기에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다. 그 결과 HDL은 $CoCl_2$에 의해 유발된 xanthine oxidase와 $H_2O_2$ 생성 증가를 억제하였고, 산화와 관련된 SOD, CAT의 활성을 증가시켜 $H_2O_2$의 가수분해를 촉진하였다. 그리고 HDL은 $CoCl_2$에 의해 유발된 ferritin의 손상과 ferritin iron의 방출을 억제하 였으며, 지질과산화의 증가를 억제하였다. 뿐만 아니라 HDL은 $CoCl_2$에 의해 증가된 G1 phase의 세포를 감소시켰으며, 세포주기와 관련된 p53 및 $p21^{CIP1/WAF1}$의 발현을 감소시켰다. 이러한 연구결과들은 HDL이 천연물로부터 유래한 독성이 없는 항산화제로서의 가능성을 제시한다.

  • Clostridium difficile releases two exotoxins, toxin A and toxin B, which disrupt the epithelial cell barrier in the gut to increase mucosal permeability and trigger inflammation with severe diarrhea. Many studies have suggested that enteric nerves are also directly involved in the progression of this toxin-mediated inflammation and diarrhea. C. difficile toxin A is known to enhance neurotransmitter secretion, increase gut motility, and suppress sympathetic neurotransmission in the guinea pig colitis model. Although previous studies have examined the pathophysiological role of enteric nerves in gut inflammation, the direct effect of toxins on neuronal cells and the molecular mechanisms underlying toxin-induced neuronal stress remained to be unveiled. Here, we examined the toxicity of C. difficile toxin A against neuronal cells (SH-SY5Y). We found that toxin A treatment time- and dose-dependently decreased cell viability and triggered apoptosis accompanied by caspase-3 activation in this cell line. These effects were found to depend on the up-regulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and the subsequent activation of p38 MAPK and induction of $p21^{Cip1/Waf1}$. Moreover, the N-acetyl-$\text\tiny L$-cysteine (NAC)-induced down-regulation of ROS could recover the viability loss and apoptosis of toxin A-treated neuronal cells. These results collectively suggest that C. difficile toxin A is toxic for neuronal cells, and that this is associated with rapid ROS generation and subsequent p38 MAPK activation and $p21^{Cip1/Waf1}$ up-regulation. Moreover, our data suggest that NAC could inhibit the toxicity of C. difficile toxin A toward enteric neurons.
