Abstract: Apoptotic cell death was induced in human lung cancer DMS114 cells by treatment with β-hydroxyisovalerylshikonin (β-HIVS), an ATP-noncompetitive inhibitor of protein tyrosine kinases. Changes in phosphoprotein profiles were analyzed by two-dimensional-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (2D-PAGE) after the cells were treated with β-HIVS. One spot on the 2D gel showed a marked decrease in intensity and the corresponding protein was identified by mass spectrometry as dUTP nucleotidohydrolase (dUTPase). The β-HIVS-induced decrease of dUTPase in the phosphoprotein fraction of DMS114 cells was confirmed using immunoblotting. Treatment of the cells with β-HIVS-induced rapid reduction of dUTPase activity. An antioxidant N-acetyl-cysteine inhibited both the reduction of phosphorylated dUTPase and the induction of apoptosis by β-HIVS treatment of DMS114 cells. Introduction of siRNA directed against dUTPase mRNA into DMS114 cells enhanced the susceptibility of β-HIVS-induced apoptosis. Treatment of DMS114 cells with β-HIVS and 5-fluorouracil, a specific inhibitor of thymidylate synthase used as a chemotherapeutic drug, revealed the synergistic effects of these drugs on the inhibition of cell growth. These results suggest that dUTPase activity is one of the crucial factors involved in apoptotic cell death in lung cancer cells. [Copyright &y& Elsevier] |
