Abstract:
:Excision of chromatin loop domains and internucleosomal DNA fragmentation are widely considered as consecutive stages of chromatin disassembly during apoptosis. We report here on apoptosis induced by staurosporine in NB-2a neuroblastoma cells, which was accompanied by excision of chromatin loop domains, but proceeded without internucleosomal DNA cleavage. In contrast to apoptosis associated with internucleosomal DNA fragmentation, the apoptotic pathway associated with excision of chromatin loop domains was largely caspase independent. We identify here MAPK family member, p38/JNK, mitochondria, and topoisomerase II as the components of this caspase-independent apoptotic pathway. While caspase-independent excision of chromatin loop domains was a predominant mechanism of DNA disintegration in staurosporine-treated neuroblastoma, both caspase-dependent internucleosomal DNA fragmentation and caspase-independent excision of chromatin loop domains accompanied staurosporine-induced apoptosis of promyelocytic leukemia cells. Our results suggest that caspase-independent excision of chromatin loop domains represents a separate cell death pathway, which operates either in parallel or independently from caspase-dependent internucleosomal DNA fragmentation.
