项目摘要

Doxorubicin (Dox) is an anticancer agent which has the side effect of cardiac toxicity. However, the precise molecular mechanism of doxorubicin-induced myocardial apoptosis is still unknown. We have previously reported that cyclin A/cdk2 kinase activity, which is one of the cell cycle regulators, is mediated hypoxia-induced apoptosis in cardiomyocytes. Because apoptosis typically begins in the cytoplasm in the proliferating cells, we tested the hypothesis that the subcellular localization of cyclin A determines the apoptotic fate. Primary rat cardiomyocytes were exposed to doxorubicin and increased apoptosis dose-dependently (10-5 to 10-7M) evaluated by TUNEL method and the number of viable cells. The cyclin A protein level assessed by immunoblot analysis accumulated with a maximum response after 6 hours treatment in cardiomyocytes. Also, doxorubicin increased in the activity of cyclin A-and cdk2-associated kinase by histone-H1 kinase assay. By immnohistochemistry, cyclin A was cytoplasm in cardiomyocytes, however, cyclin A was nuclear in proliferating condition of fibroblasts. To test whether the cyclin A-associated kinase was the effector for apoptosis, cardiomyocytes were infected by dominant-negative cdk2 adenovirus (dncdk2). The apoptosis by doxorubicin(10-6M) was significantly reduced (cont. 4.8± 1.8%, Dox. 46.2±4.0%, Dox+dncdk2 25.8±6.0%), suggesting that cyclin A/cdk2 kinase activity play significant roles in the doxorubicin induced apoptosis. In conclusion, these findings confirm that the activation of cyclin A in cytoplasm mediates doxorubicin-induced apoptosis in cardiomyocytes.

阿霉素(Dox)是一种具有心脏毒性副作用的抗癌药物，但我们之前报道过阿霉素诱导心肌细胞凋亡的确切分子机制，而这是其中之一。细胞周期调节剂介导缺氧诱导的心肌细胞凋亡，因为细胞凋亡通常始于增殖细胞的细胞质，因此我们测试了细胞周期调节剂的亚细胞定位的假设。细胞周期蛋白 A 决定细胞凋亡的命运。原代大鼠心肌细胞暴露于阿霉素，通过 TUNEL 方法评估细胞凋亡剂量依赖性增加（10-5 至 10-7M），并通过免疫印迹分析评估累积的活细胞数量。在心肌细胞中治疗 6 小时后，阿霉素可增加细胞周期蛋白 A 和 cdk2 相关激酶的活性。组蛋白-H1激酶检测显示，细胞周期蛋白A在心肌细胞中为细胞质，而在成纤维细胞增殖状态下，细胞周期蛋白A为细胞核。 cdk2 腺病毒 (dncdk2) 显着减少阿霉素 (10-6M) 的细胞凋亡（续）。 4.8±1.8%，Dox 46.2±4.0%，Dox+dncdk2 25.8±6.0%)，表明细胞周期蛋白A/cdk2激酶活性在阿霉素诱导的细胞凋亡中发挥重要作用。细胞质中的介导多柔比星诱导的心肌细胞凋亡。
