Abstract:
:We investigated the effect of aphidicolin, an inhibitor of DNA polymerase alpha and delta, on the induction of apoptosis by arabinosyl nucleosides in a human promyelocytic leukemia cell line, HL-60. Pretreatment of HL-60 cells with aphidicolin (2 microM) significantly increased the number of morphologically apoptotic cells induced by 1-beta-D arabinofuranosylcytosine (ara-C) during 4 hr of incubation. This is consistent with the appearance of DNA fragmentation as determined quantitatively by diphenylamine or by agarose gel electrophoresis. The inhibition of cell growth on day 3 after drug exposure was correlated with the degree of apoptosis: Such synergistic interaction between aphidicolin and ara-C has also been observed in other human myeloid leukemia cell lines, U937 and KG-1. In addition, the induction of apoptosis by 9-beta-D arabinofuranosyladenine or 9-beta-D arabinofuranosylguanine is augmented by aphidicolin.
