Glycogen Synthase Kinase-3β Plays a Pro-Apoptotic Role in β-Adrenergic Receptor-Stimulated Apoptosis in Adult Rat Ventricular Myocytes: Role of β1 IntegrinsMenon, Bindu, Johnson, Jennifer N., Ross, Robert S., Singh, Mahipal, Singh, Krishna 01 March 2007 (has links)
β-adrenergic receptor (β-AR) stimulation induces apoptosis in adult rat ventricular myocytes (ARVM). β1 integrin signaling plays a protective role in β-AR-stimulated apoptosis. Glycogen synthase kinase-3β (GSK-3β), a multifunctional serine/threonine kinase, negatively regulates cardiac hypertrophy. Here we show that β-AR stimulation (isoproterenol; 15 min) increases tyr216 phosphorylation and GSK-3β activity. Inclusion of LiCl, inhibitor of GSK-3β, in the reaction mix or expression of catalytically inactive GSK-3β (KM-GSK) inhibited β-AR-stimulated GSK-3β activity. Inhibition of tyrosine kinase using genistein or chelation of intracellular Ca2+ using BAPTA-AM inhibited β-AR-stimulated increases in tyr216 phosphorylation and GSK-3β activity. Inhibition of GSK-3β using pharmacological inhibitors or infection with KM-GSK decreased β-AR-stimulated cytosolic cytochrome C release and apoptosis. Expression of β1 integrins increased ser9 phosphorylation and inhibited β-AR-stimulated increase in GSK-3β activity. Wortmannin, inhibitor of PI3-kinase, reversed the effects of β1 integrins on GSK-3β activity and apoptosis. Purified active matrix metalloproteinase-2 (MMP-2), shown to interfere with β1 integrin signaling, increased GSK-3β activity, while inhibition of MMP-2 inhibited β-AR-stimulated increases in GSK-3β activity. β-AR stimulation induced nuclear accumulation of GSK-3β. β-AR stimulation (3 h) increased the expression of transcription factor Gadd153 (growth arrest- and DNA damage-inducible gene 153). These data suggest that β-AR stimulation increases GSK-3β activity. Activation of GSK-3β plays a pro-apoptotic role in β-AR-stimulated apoptosis via the involvement of mitochondrial death pathway. β1 integrins inactivate GSK-3β and play an anti-apoptotic role via the involvement of PI3-kinase pathway. The apoptotic effects of GSK-3β may be mediated, at least in part, via its nuclear localization and induction of pro-apoptotic genes, such as Gadd153.

Rôle de la voie IGF-1 dans la sensibilité des plasmocytes tumoraux aux inhibiteurs du protéasome / The chemosensitivity of plasma cells to conventional treatments and the modulation of this sensivity by IGF-1 pathwayTagoug, Ines 17 December 2010 (has links)
Le myélome multiple (MM) est une hémopathie dont la croissance et la prolifération sont liés à une variété de facteurs de croissance, y compris « insulin-like growth factor type 1 » (IGF-1). Bortézomib est le premier inhibiteur protéasome ayant une activité anti-tumorale significative dans le myélome multiple. Nous avons analysé l'impact de l'IGF-1 recombinant associé à l'inhibiteur du protéasome bortezomib sur des lignées humaines de MM, in vivo et sur des cellules de myélome frais humaines ex vivo. Nous avons montré que l'IGF-1 améliore l'activité cytotoxique du bortezomib in vitro, in vivo et ex vivo. Nous avons montré que l'accroissement de la toxicité peut être inhibé par la présence d'un anticorps monoclonal dirigé contre le récepteur de l'IGF-1 (IGF1-R). IGF-1 renforce l'activité cytotoxique des autres inhibiteurs de protéasome, y compris MG115, MG132, PSI et epoxomicin. Nos résultats confirment le fait que l'IGF-1sensibilise des cellules de myélome à l'activité cytotoxique des inhibiteurs du protéasome tels que le bortezomib, en raison du niveau accru du stress de réticulum endoplasmique et l'induction de la une réponse protéine dépliée (UPR) / Multiple Myeloma (MM) is a clonal plasma cell disorder whose growth and proliferation are linked to a variety of growth factors, including insulin-like growth factor type 1 (IGF-1). Bortezomib, the first-in-class proteasome inhibitor, has displayed significant antitumor activity in multiple myeloma. We analyzed the impact of recombinant IGF-1 combined with the proteasome inhibitor bortezomib in MM cell lines, in vivo and on fresh human myeloma cells ex vivo. We found that IGF-1 enhanced the cytotoxic activity of bortezomib in vitro, in vivo and ex vivo. We showed that the enhanced toxicity could be inhibited by the presence of a monoclonal antibody directed against the IGF-1 receptor (IGF1-R). IGF-1 enhances the cytotoxic activity of other proteasome inhibitors, including MG115, MG132, PSI and epoxomicin. Our results support the fact that IGF-1sensitize myeloma cells to the cytotoxic activity of proteasome inhibitors such as bortezomib, as a consequence of enhanced level of endoplasmic reticulum stress and the induction of an unfolded protein response (UPR)
