Selective sensitivity of macrophages to cytotoxicity by inhibitors of macromolecular synthesis: induction of apoptosis.

Abstract:

:Initial studies designed to measure the effect of inhibiting RNA synthesis by dactinomycin on macrophage functions revealed that the cells were uniformly killed at concentrations that have been routinely used to inhibit RNA synthesis in other cell types. We, thus, determined the dose curve for the cytotoxicity of dactinomycin for macrophages and two other cell types, L929 cells and splenic lymphocytes. Macrophages were extremely sensitive to the cytotoxicity of dactinomycin compared to the other cell types. Submicromolar concentrations that induced 100% cytotoxicity in macrophages caused little death in L929 cells or lymphocytes. Concentrations of dactinomycin that inhibited RNA synthesis by 40% in macrophages induced almost complete cell death but inhibition of over 80% of RNA synthesis in L929 cells or lymphocytes induced no measurable cytotoxicity. Macrophages did take up more dactinomycin than other cells but the amount was not sufficient to account for the large differences in cytotoxicity. We next tested the effects of doxorubicin and cycloheximide and found that macrophages were also extremely sensitive to killing by these compounds, and there was a very close association between the amount of inhibition of protein synthesis and the amount of toxicity. The morphology of macrophages exposed to these agents was consistent with death by apoptosis. This was further supported by assays measuring membrane integrity and DNA fragmentation. These data demonstrate that inhibition of macromolecular synthesis in macrophages, by different mechanisms, causes macrophages to undergo apoptosis. They further suggest that, in contrast to other cell types that require protein synthesis for apoptosis, macrophages require the synthesis of certain proteins to avoid apoptosis.
