E2F-1在胃腺癌细胞内质网应激反应中对Mcl-1的调控作用
Regulation of Mcl-1 by E2F-1 in endoplasmic reticulum stress in gastric adenocarcinoma cells
摘要
Abstract
Objective To explore the role of Mcl-1 in resistance of gastric adenocarcinoma cells to endoplasmic reticulum ( ER ) stress-induced apoptosis and the mechanism of regulation of Mcl-1 by E2F-1 in the cells under ER stress. Methods Apoptosis was measured by flow cytometry using propidium iodide staining. Western blot was used to detect expression levels of various proteins including CRP78, Mcl-1 . Bc1-2 and E2F-1. The expression of Mcl-1 at mRNA level was monitored by quantitative RT-PCR. cDNA ( pcDNA-E2F-1-Flag )transfection was employed to over-express E2F-1 in cells. Results Gastric adenocarcinoma cells were in general resistant to apoptosis induced by the ER-stress inducer tunicymicin ( TM ) which was associated with up-regulation of Mcl-1 in protein and mRNA levels. Intriguingly , the transcription factor E2F-1 known to repress transcription of Mcl-1 was decreased by exposure to TM. Over-expression of E2F-1 attenuated up-regulation of Mcl-1 in gastric adenocarcinoma cells under ER stress. Conclusion Up-regulation of Mcl-1 may play a role in resistance of gastric adenocarcinoma cells to ER stress-induced apoptosis. This is , at least in part , due to down-regulation of E2F-1 in the cells upon ER stress.关键词
