Trinitrotoluene Induces Endoplasmic Reticulum Stress and Apoptosis in HePG2 Cells
BACKGROUND This study aims to describe trinitrotoluene (TNT)-induced endoplasmic reticulum stress (ERS) and apoptosis in HePG2 cells. MATERIAL AND METHODS HePG2 cells were cultured in vitro with 0, 6, 12, or 24 μg/ml TNT solution for 12, 24, and 48 h. Western blotting was performed to detect intracellular ERS-related proteins, including glucose-regulated protein (GRP) 78, GRP94, Caspase 4, p-...
متن کاملDihydroartemisinin induces endoplasmic reticulum stress-mediated apoptosis in HepG2 human hepatoma cells.
AIMS AND BACKGROUND Previous studies showed that dihydroartemisinin (DHA) possessed antitumor activity in many human tumor cells through the induction of apoptosis. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of DHA on apoptosis in the human hepatocellular carcinoma cell line HepG2 and the possible molecular mechanisms involved. METHODS The inhibitory effect of DHA on HepG2 cells was...
متن کاملmda-7/IL-24 induces apoptosis in human HepG2 hepatoma cells by endoplasmic reticulum stress.
mda-7/IL-24 shows tumor-suppressor activity in a broad spectrum of human cancer cells. However, the molecular mechanism by which mda-7/IL-24 induces apoptosis is not well understood and most likely involves different pathways depending on the tumor. We examined the apoptotic effect of the adenovirus-mediated mda-7/IL-24 (Ad.mda-7) on human HepG2 hepatoma cells. We found that blocking the endopl...
متن کاملGlycolaldehyde induces endoplasmic reticulum stress and apoptosis in Schwann cells
Schwann cell injury is caused by diabetic neuropathy. The apoptosis of Schwann cells plays a pivotal role in diabetic nerve dysfunction. Glycolaldehyde is a precursor of advanced glycation end products that contribute to the pathogenesis of diabetic neuropathy. In this study, we examined whether glycolaldehyde induces endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress and apoptosis in rat Schwann cells. Schwann...
متن کاملCelecoxib-mediated activation of endoplasmic reticulum stress induces de novo ceramide biosynthesis and apoptosis in hepatoma HepG2 cells
Ceramides are the major sphingolipid metabolites involved in cell survival and apoptosis. When HepG2 hepatoma cells were treated with celecoxib, the expression of the genes in de novo sphingolipid biosynthesis and sphingomyelinase pathway was upregulated and cellular ceramide was elevated. In addition, celecoxib induced endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress in a time-dependent manner. SPTLC2, a sub...
