Abstract:
:Both clinical and experimental evidence indicates that AIDS-related Kaposi's sarcoma (AIDS-KS) has a multifactorial pathogenesis with factors such as HIV viral load, latent virus induction, and opportunistic infections contributing to disease progression. However, a consistent feature that unites these apparently diverse putative etiologic agents is sustained serum elevations of pro-inflammatory cytokines such as tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha). While virtually every cell responds to TNF-alpha with gene activation, the extent of TNF-alpha-mediated cellular signaling is regulated by a delicate balance between signal activation and signal arresting events. Reactive oxygen intermediates (ROI), which are generated as a consequence of TNF-alpha membrane interaction, are part of this TNF-alpha-initiated cellular activation cascade. Previous studies in our laboratory have shown that AIDS-KS cells possess impaired oxygen intermediate scavenging capacities, thereby establishing conditions permissive for the intracellular retention of ROI. In this study, we used cellular capacity to upregulate the cytoprotective enzyme superoxide dismutase (SOD) to address the extent of cellular response to TNF-alpha. Concurrent with the SOD analyses, nucleotide profiles were obtained to assess cellular bioenergetic responses during TNF-alpha challenge. Proliferative growth levels of mitochondrial (Mn)SOD activities showed an activity spectrum ranging from lowest activity in AIDS-KS cells, to intermediate levels in matched, nonlesional cells from the AIDS-KS donors, to highest activities in HIV normal fibroblasts. In contrast, following TNF-alpha challenge, the AIDS-KS and KS donor nonlesional cells showed a 11.89- and 5.86-fold respective increase in MnSOD activity, while the normal fibroblasts demonstrated a 1.35-fold decrease. Subsequent thiol redox modulation studies showed that only the normal fibroblast cultures showed a potentiation of TNF-alpha-mediated MnSOD upregulation following GSH depletion. In addition, provision of the GSH precursor, N-acetylcysteine during TNF-alpha challenge only diminished MnSOD activity and mitochondrial compartmentalization in the AIDS-KS cells, a finding that likely reflects the lower levels of reduced thiols in this cellular population. Our data, which show that a perturbation in their cellular thiol redox status accentuates AIDS-KS cellular responsiveness to TNF-alpha, suggest a biochemical rationale for the recognized TNF-alpha AIDS-KS clinical correlation.
