چکیده
We have previously demonstrated cleavage of alpha-spectrin by caspase-3 and calpain during apoptosis in SH-SY5Y neuroblastoma cells (Nath, R., Raser, K. J., Stafford, D., Hajimohammadreza, I., Posner, A., Allen, H., Talanian, R. V., Yuen, P., Gilbertsen, R. B., and Wang, K. K. (1996) Biochem. J. 319, 683-690). We demonstrate here that calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase IV (CaMK IV) is cleaved during apoptosis by caspase-3 and calpain. We challenged SH-SY5Y cells with the pro-apoptotic agent thapsigargin. Western blot analysis revealed major CaMK IV breakdown products of 40, 38, and 33 kDa. Digestion of control SH-SY5Y lysate with purified caspase-3 produced a 38-kDa CaMK IV fragment; digestion with purified calpain produced a major fragment of 40 kDa. Pretreatment with carbobenzoxy-Asp-CH2OC(O)-2,6-dichlorobenzene or Z-Val-Ala-Asp-fluoromethylketone was able to block the caspase-3-mediated production of the 38-kDa fragment both in situ and in vitro. Calpain inhibitor II similarly blocked formation of the calpain-mediated 40-kDa fragment both in situ and in vitro. Digestion of recombinant CaMK IV by other caspase family members revealed that only caspase-3 produces a fragmentation pattern consistent to that seen in situ. The major caspase-3 and calpain cleavage sites are respectively identified as PAPD176*A and CG201*A, both within the CaMK IV catalytic domain. Furthermore, calmodulin-stimulated protein kinase activity decreases within 6 h in thapsigargin-treated SH-SY5Y. The loss of activity precedes cell death.

Involvement of Mu Opioid Receptor Signaling in The Protective Effect of Opioid against 6-Hydroxydopamine-Induced SH-SY5Y Human Neuroblastoma Cells Apoptosis
Introduction: The neuroprotective role of opioid morphine against 6-hydroxydopamineinduced cell death has been demonstrated. However, the exact mechanism(s) underlying such neuroprotection, especially the role of subtype receptors, has not yet been fully clarified. Methods: Here, we investigated the effects of different opioid agonists on 6-OHDA-induced neurotoxicity in human neuroblastoma...

Neuroblastoma is the most common cancer in infants and fourth most common cancer in children. Despite recent advances in cancer treatments, the prognosis of stage-IV neuroblastoma patients continues to be dismal which warrant new pharmacotherapy. A novel tetracyclic condensed quinoline compound, 8-methoxypyrimido [4',5':4,5]thieno(2,3-b) quinoline-4(3H)-one (MPTQ) is a structural analogue of an...

The cytoskeletal protein non-erythroid alpha-spectrin is well documented as an endogenous calpain substrate, especially under pathophysiological conditions. In cell necrosis (e.g. maitotoxin-treated neuroblastoma SH-SY5Y cells), alpha-spectrin breakdown products (SBDPs) of 150 kDa and 145 kDa were produced by cellular calpains. In contrast, in neuronal cells undergoing apoptosis (cerebellar gra...

Cancers are characterized by dysregulation of multiple signaling pathways and thus monotherapies are hardly effective. Neuroblastoma, which often occurs in adrenal glands, is the most common childhood malignancy. Malignant neuroblastoma resists traditional treatments and further studies are needed for effective therapeutic interventions. We evaluated synergistic efficacy of N-(4-hydroxyphenyl) ...
متن کاملCytochrome c translocation does not lead to caspase activation in maitotoxin-treated SH-SY5Y neuroblastoma cells.
Cytosolic cytochrome c elevation has been associated with activation of caspase-3-like proteases. In this study, we demonstrate that treatment with the neurotoxin and potent calcium channel opener maitotoxin (MTX) induces cytochrome c release from the mitochondria that is not accompanied by caspase activation. Cytochrome c translocation in MTX-treated SH-SY5Y cells was readily apparent after 30...
