Distinct endoplasmic reticulum signaling pathways regulate apoptotic and necrotic cell death following iodoacetamide treatment.

Abstract：

:Environmental stress induces the synthesis of glucose-regulated proteins (Grps) in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and heat shock proteins (Hsps) in the cytoplasm. Iodoacetamide (IDAM), a prototypical alkyating agent, induces both Grp and Hsp synthesis in renal epithelial cells and causes necrosis which is prevented by prior activation of the ER stress response (pre-ER stress) [Liu, H., et al. (1997) J. Biol. Chem. 272, 21751-21759]. In this study, we examined the biochemical pathways leading to IDAM-induced apoptosis and investigated the role of the ER stress response in apoptotic cell death. The antioxidant N,N'-diphenyl-p-phenylenediamine (DPPD) prevented necrosis after IDAM treatment, but the cells went on to die with hallmarks of apoptosis, i.e., cell detachment, caspase-3 activation, cleavage of poly(ADP-ribose)polymerase (PARP), and DNA-ladder formation, all of which were blocked by the general caspase inhibitor zVAD. As with IDAM-induced necrosis, dithiothreitol protected against apoptosis, but cell permeable calcium chelators did not, suggesting that distinct biochemical pathways mediate these two forms of cell death. Pre-ER stress, but not heat shock, prevented IDAM-induced apoptosis. pkASgrp78 cells are deficient in Grp78 induction due to expression of a grp78 antisense RNA and are more sensitive to necrosis. However, these cells were resistant to IDAM-induced apoptosis and had increased basal levels of Grp94 and a KDEL-containing protein of about 50 kDa. Thus, the expression of grp78 antisense perturbs ER functions and activates expression of other ER stress genes accounting for the resistance to apoptosis. Taken together, the data describe functionally distinct signaling pathways through which the ER regulates apoptosis and necrosis caused by chemical toxicants.
