Abstract：
BACKGROUND:DMXAA (5,6-dimethylxanthenone-4-acetic acid; AS1404), a vascular disrupting agent currently in clinical trials, induces tumour endothelial cell apoptosis in vivo in mice and in cancer patients. DMXAA activates NF-kappaB in many different cell types. In this study, whether DMXAA-induced endothelial cell apoptosis was NF-kappaB dependent was determined. MATERIALS AND METHODS:HUVEC endothelial and T24 endothelial-like cells were treated with DMXAA and apoptosis was measured by terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase biotin-dUTP nick end labelling (TUNEL). NF-kappaB activation was measured by electrophoretic mobility shift assays (EMSA). T24 cells were transfected with IkappaBalphaM, a mutant form of the IkappaBalpha gene which cannot be phosphorylated and degraded, hence preventing NF-kappaB expression. RESULTS:No NF-kappaB up-regulation was detected in apoptotic HUVEC treated with DMXAA. The IkappaBalphaM-transfected T24 cells showed similar apoptotic responses to those of parental cells. CONCLUSION:The DMXAA-induced apoptosis is neither mediated by, nor inhibited by, the expression of the NF-kappaB pathway.
