BalB/C-3T3 mouse fibroblasts and a temperature-sensitive derivative, ts 2e, were transfected by the calcium phosphate-dimethyl sulphoxide procedure to examine the effect of this manipulation on cell cycle progression. Cells were synchronized by growth to confluence in the presence of [2-14C]thymidine to generally label cellular DNA, and then subcultured from the G0 state. Plasmid pSV3-neo or pSV2-neo DNA was added to cells at 24 h post-plating, at peak Sphase. At designated intervals prior to, during, and after the transfection procedure, cells were labelled with [methyl-H]thymidine for 1 h to monitor nascent DNA synthesis and thereby assess cell cycle position. In all experiments performed, irrespective of the time of DNA addition, the transfection manipulations resulted in a reproducible, transient interruption of cell cycle progression, of about 5 h, and manifested as a delay in movement across the subsequent G1–S interface. Thereafter, the cycle resumed normally. The results indicated that the temporal sequence of the cell duplication cycle is altered when cells are exposed to exogenous DNA:Ca3 (PO4)2.Key words: transfection, cell cycle progression.

Histone Modifying Enzymes

ABSTRACT The anaphase-promoting complex (APC), a large evolutionarily conserved ubiquitin ligase complex, regulates cell cycle progression through mitosis and G1. Here, we present data suggesting that APC-dependent cell cycle progression relies on a specific set of posttranslational histone-modifying enzymes. Multiple APC subunit mutants were impaired in total and modified histone H3 protein content. Acetylated H3K56 (H3K56Ac) levels were as reduced as those of total H3, indicating that loading histones with H3K56Ac is unaffected in APC mutants. However, under restrictive conditions, H3K9Ac and dimethylated H3K79 (H3K79me2) levels were more greatly reduced than those of total H3. In a screen for histone acetyltransferase (HAT) and histone deacetylase (HDAC) mutants that genetically interact with the apc5 CA (chromatin assembly) mutant, we found that deletion of GCN5 or ELP3 severely hampered apc5 CA temperature-sensitive (ts) growth. Further analyses showed that (i) the elp3Δ gcn5Δ double mutant ts defect was epistatic to that observed in apc5 CA cells; (ii) gcn5Δ and elp3Δ mutants accumulate in mitosis; and (iii) turnover of the APC substrate Clb2 is not impaired in elp3Δ gcn5Δ cells. Increased expression of ELP3 and GCN5, as well as genes encoding the HAT Rtt109 and the chromatin assembly factors Msi1 and Asf1, suppressed apc5 CA defects, while increased APC5 expression partially suppressed elp3Δ gcn5Δ growth defects. Finally, we demonstrate that Gcn5 is unstable during G1 and following G1 arrest and is stabilized in APC mutants. We present our working model in which Elp3/Gcn5 and the APC work together to facilitate passage through mitosis and G1. To progress into S, we propose that at least Gcn5 must then be targeted for degradation in an APC-dependent fashion.

Abstract Objectives Piceatannol (PIC) is a polyphenolic and resveratrol analog that is found in many vegetables consumed by humans. Like resveratrol, PIC has beneficial effects on health due to its anti-inflammatory, anti-oxidative and anti-proliferative features. However, the molecular targets of PIC in prostate cancer (PCa), which is the second most common cancer in men worldwide, are still poorly understood. Preventing cancer through dietary sources is a promising strategy to control diseases. Therefore, the aim of present study was to investigate the molecular mechanistic of actions of PIC in PCa cell lines with different genetic background common to human prostate cancer. Methods Human PCa cell lines (PC-3, 22Rv1, LNCaP, and VCaP) were treated with different doses of PIC (5–40 µM) and used for cell viability assay, measurement of total free fatty acids (FFA) and lactate, and cell cycle distribution. Results PIC treatment dose- and time-dependently reduced viability in PC-3 (androgen-independent, PTEN null, p53 null) and VCaP cells (androgen-responsive, wild-type PTEN, mutant p53). Because metabolic alterations, such as increased glucose and lipid metabolism are implicated in pathogenesis of in PCa, we tested if PIC could affect these pathways. Results from lactate and total free fatty acid assays in VCaP, 22Rv1 (castration-resistant, wild-type PTEN, mutant p53), and LNCaP (androgen-responsive, PTEN null, wild-type p53) revealed no effect of PIC on these metabolisms. However, PIC treatment delayed cell cycle progression in G0/G1 phase concomitant with the induction of apoptosis in both LNCaP and 22Rv1 cells, suggesting that growth inhibitory effect of PIC in PCa is associated with cell cycle arrest and apoptotic cell death at least LNCaP and 22Rv1 cells. Conclusions While PIC treatment does not alter lipid or glucose metabolism, cell cycle arrest and apoptosis induction are likely important in anti-cancer effects of PIC.

ABSTRACT Novel techniques were used to determine when in the cell cycle of proliferating NIH 3T3 cells cellular Ras and cyclin D1 are required. For comparison, in quiescent cells, all four of the inhibitors of cell cycle progression tested (anti-Ras, anti-cyclin D1, serum removal, and cycloheximide) became ineffective at essentially the same point in G1 phase, approximately 4 h prior to the beginning of DNA synthesis. To extend these studies to cycling cells, a time-lapse approach was used to determine the approximate cell cycle position of individual cells in an asynchronous culture at the time of inhibitor treatment and then to determine the effects of the inhibitor upon recipient cells. With this approach, anti-Ras antibody efficiently inhibited entry into S phase only when introduced into cells prior to the preceding mitosis, several hours before the beginning of S phase. Anti-cyclin D1, on the other hand, was an efficient inhibitor when introduced up until just before the initiation of DNA synthesis. Cycloheximide treatment, like anti-cyclin D1 microinjection, was inhibitory throughout G1 phase (which lasts a total of 4 to 5 h in these cells). Finally, serum removal blocked entry into S phase only during the first hour following mitosis. Kinetic analysis and a novel dual-labeling technique were used to confirm the differences in cell cycle requirements for Ras, cyclin D1, and cycloheximide. These studies demonstrate a fundamental difference in mitogenic signal transduction between quiescent and cycling NIH 3T3 cells and reveal a sequence of signaling events required for cell cycle progression in proliferating NIH 3T3 cells.
