Differential inhibition of telomerase activity during induction of differentiation in hematopoietic, melanoma, and glioma cells in culture.

Abstract:

:Accumulating evidence indicates that telomerase activity is stringently repressed in normal human somatic cells but reactivated in cancers and immortal cells, suggesting that activation of telomerase activity may play a role in carcinogenesis and immortalization. Recently, down-regulation of telomerase activity by induction of differentiation has been reported for cells of pre-myelocytic and myelocytic leukemia as well as embryonic carcinoma. To gain further insight about the regulation of telomerase activity following induction of differentiation, telomerase activity was examined in a human hematopoietic progenitor cell line (D2), a melanoma cell line (CM73-36) and a glioma cell line (Ast812) before and after addition of differentiation inducing agents. The state of differentiation was assessed by growth inhibition and cell morphological maturation. Telomerase activity was assayed by a PCR-based telomeric repeat amplification protocol (TRAP). Our data show that telomerase activity was inhibited only in differentiation-induced D2 cells but not in differentiation-induced melanoma and glioma cells. A model for the differential inhibition of telomerase activity following induction of differentiation in different cancer cells will be presented.
