چکیده

Recent studies indicate that the induction of apoptosis in human colon cancer cells by certain nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drugs involves increased expression of 15-LOX-1 and synthesis of its major product 13-S-hydroxyoctadecadienoic acid (13-S-HODE). Evidence was obtained that this occurs via a cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2)-independent mechanism, but the actual mechanism of induction of 15-LOX-1 by these compounds is not known. There is extensive evidence that treatment of SW480 human colon cancer cells with sulindac sulfone (Exisulind, Aptosyn) or the related derivative OSI-461, both of which inhibit cyclic GMP (cGMP)-phosphodiesterases but lack COX-2 inhibitory activity, causes an increase in intracellular levels of cGMP, thus activating protein kinase G (PKG), which then activates pathways that lead to apoptosis. Therefore, in the present study, we examined the effects of various agents that cause increased cellular levels of cGMP on the expression of 15-LOX-1 in SW480 human colon cancer cells. Treatment of the cells with Exisulind, sulindac sulfide, OSI-461, the guanylyl cyclase activator YC-1, or the cell-permeable cGMP compound 8-para-chlorophenylthio-cGMP (8-pCPT-cGMP) caused an increase in cellular levels of 15-LOX-1. Exisulind, OSI-461, and 8-pCPT-cGMP also increased mRNA levels of 15-LOX-1, suggesting that the effects were at the level of transcription. The cGMP-phosphodiesterase inhibitors and YC-1 increased the production of 13-S-HODE, which is the linoleic acid metabolite of 15-LOX-1. Treatment of SW480 cells with the PKG inhibitor Rp-8-pCPT-cGMP blocked Exisulind-induced 15-LOX-1 expression. Furthermore, derivatives of SW480 cells that were engineered to stably overexpress wild-type PKG Ibeta displayed increased cellular levels of 15-LOX-1 when compared with vector control cells. Taken together, these results provide evidence that the cGMP/PKG pathway can play an important role in the induction of 15-LOX-1 expression by nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drugs and related agents.

Genistein Induces Apoptosis and Inhibits Proliferation of HT29 Colon Cancer Cells

Soybean isoflavone genistein has multiple anticancer properties and its pro-apoptotic and anti-proliferative effects have been studied in different cancer cells. However, the mechanisms of action of genistein and its molecular targets on human colon cells have not been fully elucidated. Therefore, caspase-3 and p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (p38 MAPK) as the main therapeutic targets...

Celecoxib Up Regulates the Expression of Drug Efflux Transporter ABCG2 in Breast Cancer Cell Lines

Elevated expression of the drug efflux transporter ABCG2 seems to correlate with multidrug resistance of cancer cells. Specific COX-2 inhibitor celecoxib has been shown to enhance the sensitivity of cancer cells to anticancer drugs. To clarify whether ABCG2 inhibition is involved in the sensitizing effect of celecoxib, we investigated whether the expression of ABCG2 in breast cancer cell lines ...

Expression of Anaplastic Lymphoma Kinase Protein in Human Breast Cancer

Background & Objectives: Anaplastic lymphoma Kinase (ALK) is a receptor tyrosine kinase involved in the genesis of several human cancers. ALK was initially identified because of its involvement in anaplastic large cell lymphoma (ALCL). ALK is believed to foster tumorigenesis following activation by autocrine and/or paracrine growth loops. Studies reveal that the presence of anti-ALK antibodies ...

Overexpression of 15-lipoxygenase-1 induces growth arrest through phosphorylation of p53 in human colorectal cancer cells.

To investigate the function of 15-lipoxygenase-1 (15-LOX-1) in human colorectal cancer, we overexpressed 15-LOX-1 in HCT-116 human colorectal cancer cells. Clones expressing the highest levels of 15-LOX-1 displayed reduced viability compared with the HCT-116-Vector control cells. Further, by cell cycle gene array analyses, the cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor p21WAF1/CIP1 and MDM2 genes were u...
