Abstract:
:Recent studies have proposed that tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-alpha) and ionizing radiation induce apoptosis by activating hydrolysis of sphingomyelin to ceramide. Bcl-2 and a related gene, Bcl-X, inhibit several forms of apoptosis. Herein, we report that internucleosomal DNA fragmentation, characteristic of apoptosis and induced by ionizing radiation, is accompanied by concomitant decreases in Bcl-2 and Bcl-X mRNA levels in HL-60 and U-937 human leukemia cells. Apoptotic DNA fragmentation after exposure to TNF-alpha and C2-ceramide was also associated with down-regulation of Bcl-2 mRNA in HL-60 and U-937 cells, while Bcl-X mRNA production was unaffected. These results suggest that modulation of Bcl-2 gene expression may be a target for ceramide-mediated apoptosis following exposure to ionizing radiation and TNF-alpha. Changes in Bcl-2 expression may be the basis for the interactive killing observed between radiation and TNF-alpha in some human and tumor cells.
