Phosphofructokinase 2 and glycolysis in HT29 human colon adenocarcinoma cell line. Regulation by insulin and phorbol esters.

ABSTRACT: Kinetic properties of phosphofructokinase 2 (PFK2) and regulation of glycolysis by phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA) and insulin were investigated in highly glycolytic HT29 colon cancer cells. PFK2 was found to be inhibited by citrate and, to a lesser extent, by phosphoenolpyruvate and ADP, but to be insensitive to inhibition by sn-glycerol phosphate. From these kinetic data, PFK2 from HT29 cells appears different from the liver form, but resembles somewhat the heart isoenzyme. Fructose 2,6-bisphosphate (Fru-2,6-P2) levels, glucose consumption and lactate production are increased in a dose-dependent manner in HT29 cells treated with PMA or insulin. The increase in Fru-2,6-P2 can be related to an increase in the Vmax. of PFK2, persisting after the enzyme has been precipitated with poly(ethylene glycol), without change in the Km for fructose 6-phosphate. The most striking effects of PMA and insulin on Fru-2,6-P2 production are observed after long-term treatment (24 h) and are abolished by actinomycin, cycloheximide and puromycin, suggesting that protein synthesis is involved. Furthermore, the effects of insulin and PMA on glucose consumption, lactate production, Fru-2,6-P2 levels and PFK2 activity are additive, and the effect of insulin on Fru-2,6-P2 production is not altered by pre-treatment of the cells with the phorbol ester. This suggests that these effects are exerted by separate mechanisms.

Project description:Ruta angustifolia Pers. is a perennial herb that is cultivated worldwide, including Southeast Asia, for the treatment of various diseases as traditional medicine.The purpose of the study was to identify an active principle of R. angustifolia and to investigate its effect on the HT29 cell death.The methanol and fractionated extracts (hexane, chloroform, ethyl acetate, and water) of R. angustifolia Pers. were initially investigated for their cytotoxic activity against two human carcinoma cell lines (MCF7 and HT29) and a normal human colon fibroblast cell line (CCD-18Co) using sulforhodamine B cytotoxicity assay. Eight compounds including rutamarin were isolated from the active chloroform extract and evaluated for their cytotoxic activity against HT29 human colon carcinoma cell line and CCD-18Co noncancer cells. Further studies on the induction of apoptosis such as morphological examinations, biochemical analyses, cell cycle analysis, and caspase activation assay were conducted in rutamarin-treated HT29 cells.Rutamarin exhibited remarkable cytotoxic activity against HT29 cells (IC50 value of 5.6 μM) but was not toxic to CCD-18Co cells. The morphological and biochemical hallmarks of apoptosis including activation of caspases 3, 8, and 9 were observed in rutamarin-treated HT29 cells. These may be associated with cell cycle arrest at the G0/G1 and G2/M checkpoints, which was also observed in HT29 cells.The present study describes rutamarin-induced apoptosis in the HT29 cell line for the first time and suggests that rutamarin has the potential to be developed as an anticancer agent.Rutamarin was cytotoxic to HT29 colon cancer cells but exerted no damage to normal colon cellsRutamarin induced morphological and biochemical hallmarks of apoptosis in HT29 cellsRutamarin induced cell cycle arrest at the G0/G1 and G2/M checkpoints in a dose-dependent manner in HT29 cellsRutamarin activated caspases 3, 8, and 9 in a dose-dependent manner in HT29 cells.

Project description:Phosphorylation of membrane proteins is one of the earliest steps in cell activation induced by growth-promoting agents. Since MHC (major histocompatibility complex) class I molecules are known to contain phosphorylation sites in their C-terminal intracellular domain, we have studied the regulation of HLA (human leucocyte antigen) phosphorylation in intact cells by two mitogens, namely TPA (12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol 13-acetate), a phorbol ester, and insulin, which are thought to exert their mitogenic effects through the stimulation of different protein kinases (protein kinase C and a tyrosine kinase respectively). Human B lymphoblastoid cells (526 cell line) were pulsed with [32P]Pi to label the intracellular ATP pool. Cells were then stimulated for 10 min with TPA, insulin, cyclic AMP or EGF (epidermal growth factor). The reaction was stopped by cell lysis in the presence of kinase and phosphatase inhibitors, and class I HLA antigens were immunoprecipitated with monoclonal antibodies. Analysis of labelled proteins by gel electrophoresis and autoradiography revealed that TPA increased the phosphorylation of the 45 kDa class I heavy chain by 5-7-fold, and insulin increased it by 2-3-fold. Cyclic AMP and EGF had no stimulatory effect. Analysis of immunoprecipitated HLA molecules by two-dimensional gel electrophoresis showed that TPA and insulin stimulated the incorporation of 32P into different 45 kDa molecular species, suggesting that different sites were phosphorylated by two agents. Moreover, incubation of purified class I MHC antigens with partially purified insulin-receptor tyrosine kinase and [gamma-32P]ATP revealed that class I antigens could also be phosphorylated in vitro by this tyrosine kinase. Altogether, these results therefore confirm that insulin receptors and HLA class I molecules are not only structurally [Fehlmann, Peyron, Samson, Van Obberghen, Brandenburg & Brossette (1985) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A. 82, 8634-8637] but also functionally associated in the membranes of intact cells.
