Induced Apoptosis

Mcl-1 is an antiapoptotic member of the Bcl-2 family that plays an important role in cell survival. We demonstrate that proteasome-dependent regulation of Mcl-1 plays a critical role in renal tubular epithelial cell injury from cisplatin. Protein levels of Mcl-1 rapidly declined in a time-dependent manner following cisplatin treatment of LLC-PK1cells. However, mRNA levels of Mcl-1 were not altered following cisplatin treatment. Expression of other antiapoptotic members of the Bcl-2 family such as Bcl-2 and BclxL was not affected by cisplatin treatment. Cisplatin-induced loss of Mcl-1 occurs at the same time as the mitochondrial release of cytochrome c, activation of caspase-3, and initiation of apoptosis. Treatment of cells with cycloheximide, a protein synthesis inhibitor, revealed rapid turnover of Mcl-1. In addition, treatment with cycloheximide in the presence or absence of cisplatin demonstrated that cisplatin-induced loss of Mcl-1 results from posttranslational degradation rather than transcriptional inhibition. Overexpression of Mcl-1 protected cells from cisplatin-induced caspase-3 activation and apoptosis. Preincubating cells with the proteasome inhibitor MG-132 or lactacystin not only restored cisplatin-induced loss of Mcl-1 but also resulted in an accumulation of Mcl-1 that exceeded basal levels; however, Bcl-2 and BclxL levels did not change in response to MG-132 or lactacystin. The proteasome inhibitors effectively blocked cisplatin-induced mitochondrial release of cytochrome c, caspase-3 activation, and apoptosis. These studies suggest that proteasome regulation of Mcl-1 is crucial in the cisplatin-induced apoptosis via the mitochondrial apoptotic pathway and that Mcl-1 is an important therapeutic target in cisplatin injury to renal tubular epithelial cells.

Induced Apoptosis

Autophagy has emerged as another major “programmed” mechanism to control life and death much like “programmed cell death” is for apoptosis in eukaryotes. We examined the expression of autophagic proteins and formation of autophagosomes during progression of cisplatin injury to renal tubular epithelial cells (RTEC). Autophagy was detected as early as 2–4 h after cisplatin exposure as indicated by induction of LC3-I, conversion of LC3-I to LC3-II protein, and upregulation of Beclin 1 and Atg5, essential markers of autophagy. The appearance of cisplatin-induced punctated staining of autophagosome-associated LC3-II upon GFP-LC3 transfection in RTEC provided further evidence for autophagy. The autophagy inhibitor 3-methyladenine blocked punctated staining of autophagosomes. The staining of normal cells with acridine orange displayed green fluorescence with cytoplasmic and nuclear components in normal cells but displayed considerable red fluorescence in cisplatin-treated cells, suggesting formation of numerous acidic autophagolysosomal vacuoles. Autophagy inhibitors LY294002 or 3-methyladenine or wortmannin inhibited the formation of autophagosomes but induced apoptosis after 2–4 h of cisplatin treatment as indicated by caspase-3/7 and -6 activation, nuclear fragmentation, and cell death. This switch from autophagy to apoptosis by autophagic inhibitors further suggests that the preapoptotic lag phase after treatment with cisplatin is mediated by autophagy. At later stages of cisplatin injury, apoptosis was also found to be associated with autophagy, as autophagic inhibitors and inactivation of autophagy proteins Beclin 1 and Atg5 enhanced activation of caspases and apoptosis. Our results demonstrate that induction of autophagy mounts an adaptive response, suppresses cisplatin-induced apoptosis, and prolongs survival of RTEC.
