Anti-apoptotic action of (2S,3S,4R)-N"-cyano-N-(6-amino-3,4-dihydro-3-hydroxy-2-methyl-2-dimethoxymethyl-2H-benzopyran-4-yl)-N'-benzylguanidine (KR-31378) by suppression of the phosphatase and tensin homolog deleted from chromosome 10 phosphorylation and

    This study shows the signaling pathway by which (2S,3S,4R)-N"-cyano-N-(6-amino-3,4-dihydro-3-hydroxy-2-methyl-2-dimethoxymethyl-2H-benzopyran-4-yl)-N'-benzylguanidine (KR-31378) prevents tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha-induced neuronal cell death. KR-31378 restored TNF-alpha-induced decreased cell viability of SK-N-SH. U87-MG cells (PTEN-null glioblastoma cell line) transfected with expression vectors for sense PTEN (phosphatase and tensin homolog deleted from chromosome 10) showed significantly decreased cell viability, which was restored by KR-31378. TNF-alpha-induced increased PTEN phosphorylation and decreased phosphorylation of Akt/cyclic AMP response element-binding protein (CREB) in SK-N-SH cells were concentration-dependently reversed by KR-31378, those of which were antagonized by iberiotoxin, a maxi-K channel blocker. TNF-alpha and apigenin, a casein kinase2 (CK2) inhibitor, showed decreased CK2 phosphorylation and increased PTEN phosphorylation, which were reversed by KR-31378. KR-31378 increased K(+) currents by activating the maxi-K channels in SK-N-SH cells, with suppression of TNF-alpha-induced increase in cytosolic Ca(2+) and elevation of suppressed mitochondrial membrane potential, all of which were antagonized by iberiotoxin. It is suggested that increase in cell viability by KR-31378 is ascribed to the maxi-K channel opening-coupled upregulation of CK2/Akt/CREB phosphorylation and downregulation of PTEN phosphorylation in association with increased Bcl-2 and decreased Bax levels.
