Prolactin-regulated apoptosis of Nb2 lymphoma cells: pim-1, bcl-2, and bax expression.

Abstract:

:Lactogen-dependent Nb2 lymphoma cells, widely employed for studying prolactin (PRL) mitogenic mechanisms, are also useful for investigations of apoptosis in T-lineage lymphocytes. Utilizing PRL-dependent Nb2-11 cultures, apoptosis-regulatory genes were evaluated for participation in dexamethasone- (DEX) provoked cell death or its inhibition by PRL. Treatment of lactogen-starved, G1-arrested Nb2-11 cells with DEX (100 nM) activated apoptosis within 12 h evaluated by flow cytometric analysis of fragmented DNA. This effect was not associated with altered expression of bcl-2, bax, or pim-1. PRL (10 ng/mL), coincubated with DEX-treated cells, completely blocked DEX-induced apoptosis. This inhibition was associated with increased expression of bcl-2 and pim-1 mRNAs, genes reported to suppress apoptosis, within 2-6 h after addition of the hormone. Moreover, the increased transcription of bcl-2 and pim-1 was coupled to increases in their protein levels. The results suggest that bcl-2, bax, and pim-1 do not play a critical role in DEX-induced apoptosis in Nb2 cells. However, expression of bcl-2, together with pim-1, may have a role in mediating the antiapoptotic actions of PRL.
