Inhibition by pertussis toxin of the activation of Na(+)-dependent uridine transport in dimethyl-sulphoxide-induced HL-60 leukaemia cells.

ABSTRACT: The effects of pertussis toxin on the Na(+)-dependent transport of uridine were studied in HL-60 leukaemia cells induced to differentiate along the granulocytic or monocytic pathways by dimethyl sulphoxide (DMSO) or phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA) respectively. Pertussis toxin at 50 ng/ml completely inhibited the activation of Na(+)-dependent uridine transport and consequently prevented the formation of intracellular pools of free uridine which occurs in HL-60 cells induced to differentiate by DMSO. The inhibition of Na(+)-dependent uridine transport by pertussis toxin in cells exposed to DMSO was associated with a 14-fold decrease in affinity, with no change in Vmax. Pertussis toxin, however, had no effect on Na(+)-dependent uridine transport in PMA-induced HL-60 cells. Furthermore, 500 ng of cholera toxin/ml had no effect on the Na(+)-dependent uptake of uridine in DMSO-treated HL-60 cells. These results suggest that the activation of the Na(+)-dependent transport of uridine in HL-60 cells induced to differentiate along the granulocytic pathway by DMSO is coupled to a pertussis-toxin-sensitive guanine-nucleotide binding protein (G-protein).

Enhancement of pertussis-toxin-sensitive Na(+)-dependent uridine transporter activity in HL-60 granulocytes by N-formylmethionyl-leucyl-phenylalanine.

Project description:N-Formyl-Met-Leu-Phe (FMLP), at concentrations as low as 5 nM, caused an increase in intracellular uridine pools in dimethyl sulphoxide (Me2SO)-differentiated HL-60 cells. Intracellular uridine pools were elevated rapidly and reached a maximum within 10 min of exposure to 10 microM FMLP, followed by a gradual decline. This enhancement by FMLP was a consequence of a 3-fold increase in the Vmax of pertussis-toxin-sensitive Na(+)-dependent uridine transport system, with no change in the apparent Km. Km values of 2.67 +/- 0.45 and 3.85 +/- 0.52 microM and Vmax. values of 0.046 +/- 0.017 and 0.125 +/- 0.020 microM/s were obtained for untreated and FMLP-treated Me2SO-differentiated cells respectively. The effect of FMLP on the Na(+)-dependent transport of uridine in Me2SO-differentiated HL-60 cells was specific, as the facilitated transport of uridine was unaffected. Furthermore, this phenomenon was not observed in undifferentiated, phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA)-differentiated or pertussis-toxin-treated Me2SO-differentiated HL-60 cells. Removal of extracellular Ca2+ with EGTA abolished the FMLP enhancement of uridine transport in a reversible manner, suggesting the involvement of Ca2+. However, the Ca2+ ionophore A23187 only partially mimicked the effect of FMLP. Similarly, with PMA the transport was sub-optimally enhanced, but a full activation was observed in cells treated with both A23187 and PMA. These findings suggest that activation of the Na(+)-dependent uridine transporter by FMLP in Me2SO-differentiated HL-60 cells involves a pertussis-toxin-sensitive G-protein with a bifurcating signal-transduction pathway.

Decrease in equilibrative uridine transport during monocytic differentiation of HL-60 leukaemia: involvement of protein kinase C.

Project description:The dose-response curves for the inhibition of equilibrative uridine transport by dilazep, dipyridamole and nitrobenzylthioinosine (NBMPR) in undifferentiated HL-60 cells were biphasic. Some 70% of the transport activity was inhibited with IC50 values of 0.7, 1 and 7 nM respectively. No inhibition of the remaining 30% of transport activity was observed until the dilazep, dipyridamole and NBMPR concentrations exceeded 1, 0.1 and 3 microM respectively. Exposure to phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA) for 48 h, to induce monocytic differentiation, caused a 20-fold decrease in Vmax. of both NBMPR-sensitive and NBMPR-insensitive equilibrative uridine transport. The decrease in NBMPR-sensitive uridine transport induced by PMA corresponded to a decrease in NBMPR binding sites. A 30% decrease in specific NBMPR binding sites occurred within 6 h of PMA exposure, and could be prevented by uridine and thymidine at concentrations as low as 100 microM, and by staurosporine at 40 nM. However, the protective effects of these compounds diminished with prolonged PMA exposure. No protection was observed with uracil. Exogenous protein kinase C (PKC) in the presence of ATP and PMA decreased the number of specific NBMPR-binding sites in purified HL-60 cell plasma membranes. These results suggest that a PKC-induced conformational change in substrate-binding/transporting site may be responsible for the decrease in NBMPR-sensitive nucleoside transport during PMA-induced monocytic differentiation of HL-60 cells.

Treatment of HL-60 cells with dimethyl sulphoxide inhibits the formation of beta-N-acetylhexosaminidase S.

Project description:beta-N-Acetylhexosaminidase of HL-60 cells was separated into two main forms, A and S, by chromatography on DEAE-cellulose. Analysis of developmental changes in the isoenzyme pattern was complicated by the fact that the specific activity of beta-N-acetylhexosaminidase underwent a 6-fold change during the normal growth cycle. Two other lysosomal enzymes, beta-galactosidase and alpha-mannosidase, behaved similarly. Induction of differentiation of HL-60 cells with dimethyl sulphoxide at a low cell density (3 x 10(5) cells/ml) had a greater effect on the abundance of alpha-subunits of beta-N-acetylhexosaminidase, measured with 4-methylumbelliferyl-beta-N-acetylglucosaminide 6-sulphate, than of beta-subunits, measured with 4-methylumbelliferyl-beta-N-acetylglucosamine, and resulted in an isoenzyme profile in which A and B were the major forms, with the levels of form S greatly decreased.

Induction of the differentiation of HL-60 cells by phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate activates a Na(+)-dependent uridine-transport system. Involvement of protein kinase C.

Project description:The Na(+)-dependent transport and facilitated diffusion of uridine were measured after differentiation of HL-60 leukaemia cells along the monocytic pathway by phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA). PMA (200 ng/ml) caused a marked increase in Na(+)-dependent uridine transport within 48 h of exposure that was attributable to an increase in transport affinity (apparent Km values of 1.15 +/- 0.22 and 44 +/- 4.4 microM for PMA-induced and uninduced cells respectively), with no change in Vmax. (0.15 +/- 0.02 and 0.13 +/- 0.01 pmol/s per microliter of cell water for PMA-induced and uninduced cells respectively). A corresponding rapid decrease in both the rate of facilitated diffusion and the formation of uracil nucleotides occurred in PMA-induced cells. As a consequence of these changes, intracellular pools of uridine 3-4-fold greater than those in the medium were generated. A similar increase in Na(+)-dependent transport of adenosine, inosine, guanosine, thymidine and cytidine (Km values of 1-4 microM) was observed. The effects of PMA on the activation of the Na(+)-dependent uridine transporter were inhibited by staurosporine, suggesting the involvement of protein kinase C. The findings indicate that a change in the balance of the cellular mechanisms employed for nucleoside transport occurs during the monocytic differentiation of HL-60 leukaemia cells.

Increased expression of the inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptor in human leukaemic (HL-60) cells differentiated with retinoic acid or dimethyl sulphoxide.

Project description:The Ins(1,4,5)P3 receptor was examined in human promyelocytic leukaemic cells (HL-60) and in HL-60 cells differentiated towards granulocytes with either retinoic acid (RA) or dimethyl sulphoxide (Me2SO). HL-60 cell membranes enriched in marker enzyme activities of the endoplasmic reticulum and the plasma membrane possess a high-affinity binding site for [3H]Ins(1,4,5)P3 (KD = 22 nM). Electrotransfer studies indicate that Ins(1,4,[32P]5)P3 binds specifically to a 260 kDa protein of HL-60 cell membranes. This Ins(1,4,5)P3-binding protein selectively binds Ca(2+)-mobilizing inositol phosphates and other inositol phosphates which also bind to the purified InsP3 receptor, suggesting that the Ins(1,4,5)P3-binding protein of HL-60 cell membranes is the InsP3 receptor. When HL-60 cells are incubated with 1 microM-RA or with 1.25% Me2SO the cells differentiate within 5-7 days into cells resembling neutrophils in both structure and function. Treated cells cease to proliferate, acquire the ability to reduce Nitro Blue Tetrazolium dye, and undergo morphological changes typical of differentiated granulocytes. Concomitant with HL-60 cell differentiation, the maximal [3H]Ins(1,4,5)P3 binding in membranes increases 3-4-fold, with no change in KD. The results suggest that there is an absolute increase in the level of the InsP3 receptor during HL-60 cell differentiation and that the expression of this signal-transducing protein may be specifically regulated by differentiation factors.

1 alpha,25-Dihydroxycholecalciferol and a human myeloid leukaemia cell line (HL-60).

Project description:Human promyelocytic leukaemia cells (HL-60) can be induced to differentiate into mature granulocytes in vitro by 1 alpha,25-dihydroxycholecalciferol [1 alpha,25(OH)2D3], the active form of cholecalciferol. The differentiation-associated properties, such as phagocytosis and C3 rosette formation, were induced by as little as 0.12 nM-1 alpha,25(OH)2D3, and, at 12 nM, about half of the cells exhibited differentiation on day 3 of incubation. Concomitantly the viable cell number was decreased to less than half of the control. Among various derivatives of cholecalciferol examined, 1 alpha,25(OH)2D3 and 1 alpha,24R-dihydroxycholecalciferol were the most potent in inducing differentiation, followed successively by 1 alpha,24S-dihydroxycholecalciferol, 1 alpha-hydroxycholecalciferol, 25-hydroxycholecalciferol and 24R,25-dihydroxycholecalciferol. A cytosol protein specifically bound to 1 alpha,25 (OH)2D3 was found in HL-60 cells. Its physical properties closely resembled those found in such target tissues as intestine and parathyroid glands. 1 alpha,25(OH)2D3 bound to the cytosol receptor was transferred quantitatively to the chromatin fraction. The specificity of various derivatives of cholecalciferol in inducing differentiation was well correlated with that of their association with the cytosol receptor. These results are compatible with the hypothesis that the active form of cholecalciferol induces differentiation of human myeloid leukaemia cells by a mechanism similar to that proposed for the classical concept of steroid hormone action.

(Chalcogen)semicarbazones and their cobalt complexes differentiate HL-60 myeloid leukaemia cells and are cytotoxic towards tumor cell lines.

Project description:Cobalt complexes with semi- and thiosemicarbazones of 8-quinolinecarboxaldehyde have been synthesized and characterized by X-ray diffraction analysis. These novel complexes and a previously synthesized cobalt complex with a selenium-based selenosemicarbazone ligand showed myeloid differentiation activity on all trans retinoic acid resistant HL-60 acute myeloid leukaemia cells. They also showed varying levels of cytotoxicity on five human tumor cell lines: cervix carcinoma cells (HeLa), lung adenocarcinoma cells (A549), colorectal adenocarcinoma cells (LS-174), breast carcinoma cells (MDA-MB-361), and chronic myeloid leukaemia (K562) as well as one normal human cell line: fetal lung fibroblast cells (MRC-5). Leukaemia differentiation was most strongly induced by a metal-free oxygen ligand and the selenium ligand, whilst the latter and the cobalt(ii) complex with an oxygen ligand showed the strongest dose-dependent cytotoxic activity. In four out of five investigated tumor cell lines, it was of the same order of magnitude as cisplatin. These best compounds, however, had lower toxicity on non-transformed MRC-5 cells than cisplatin.

Prostaglandin-concentration-dependent desensitization of adenylate cyclase in human erythroleukaemia (HEL) cells is abolished by pertussis toxin and enhanced by induction by dimethyl sulphoxide.

Project description:Prostaglandin-regulated cyclic AMP metabolism in human erythroleukaemia (HEL) cells was similar to that previously described in platelets [Ashby (1989) Mol. Pharmacol. 36, 866-873], displaying prostaglandin-concentration-dependent desensitization that could be explained by the presence of separate stimulatory and inhibitory prostaglandin receptors. Pertussis toxin abolished prostaglandin-concentration-dependent desensitization, indicating that the process is mediated through a pertussis toxin-sensitive GTP-binding protein. Treatment of HEL cells for 4 days with the inducer dimethyl sulphoxide enhanced prostaglandin-concentration-dependent desensitization, but did not alter the initial rate of cyclic AMP synthesis or the amount of Gi2 alpha measured by immunoblotting, suggesting that the inhibitory receptor was selectively induced by changing the cells to a more platelet-like form.

Resveratrol induces autophagy-dependent apoptosis in HL-60 cells.

Project description:BACKGROUND:All known mechanisms of apoptosis induced by resveratrol act through cell cycle arrest and changes in mitochondrial membrane potential. It is currently unknown whether resveratrol-induced apoptosis is associated with other physiological processes, such as autophagy. METHODS:Apoptosis-related markers involved in the intrinsic and extrinsic apoptotic pathways, and autophagic markers were detected by using western blotting and immunofluorescence. Mitochondrial membrane potential was assayed by flow cytometry. Pharmaceutical or genetic inhibition of autophagy involved were carried by 3- methyladenine or knockdown of autophagy-related (Atg) genes by siRNA. Differences between two values were tested by Student's unpaired t test. RESULTS:We show that resveratrol-induced apoptosis occurs through both the intrinsic and extrinsic apoptotic pathways. Mitochondrial membrane potential and apoptosis-related markers, such as an increased Bax/Bcl-2 ratio, and cleaved forms of caspase-8 and caspase-3, arise following resveratrol addition. Moreover, we find that resveratrol increases both the levels of microtubule-associated protein 1 light chain 3-II and the number of autophagosomes, and further demonstrate that resveratrol-induced autophagy depends on the LKB1-AMPK-mTOR pathway. We next reveal that some apoptosis-related markers induced by resveratrol are further attenuated by the inhibition of autophagy with 3-methyladenine or knockdown of autophagy-related (Atg) genes by siRNA. CONCLUSIONS:These results suggest that resveratrol induced apoptotic cell death of HL-60 cells depends on the autophagy activated through both the LKB1-AMPK and PI3K/AKT-regulated mTOR signaling pathways.

Induction of cyclo-oxygenase synthesis in human promyelocytic leukaemia (HL-60) cells during monocytic or granulocytic differentiation.

Project description:Cyclo-oxygenase (COX) production in human promyelocytic leukaemia (HL-60) cells was studied during monocytic differentiation induced by 1 alpha, 25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 (24 nM; 3 days) or phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (100 nM; 1 day), or during granulocytic differentiation induced by retinoic acid (1 microns; 4 days). Undifferentiated or differentiated HL-60 cells were labelled with [35S]methionine, and membrane-bound COX was solubilized and quantified by SDS/PAGE. Immunoprecipitated 35S-labelled COX from cells induced to differentiate into monocytic or granulocytic lineage were clearly detected on the autoradiograms as a protein of approx. 70 kDa molecular size, whereas only a very faint COX band was detected in untreated HL-60 cells. During both monocytic and granulocytic differentiation, COX activity (measured by the conversion of exogenous arachidonic acid into prostaglandin E2) was dramatically increased. In addition, thromboxane synthesis was preferentially enhanced during monocytic differentiation. HL-60 cells, induced to differentiate into the monocytic or granulocytic lineage, provide a useful tool to investigate the cellular mechanisms involved in regulation of the synthesis of individual prostanoid-metabolizing enzymes.
