Apoptotic effect of ethyl-4-isothiocyanatobutanoate is associated with DNA damage, proteasomal activity and induction of p53 and p21cip1/waf1. Apoptosis : an international journal on programmed cell death, 2006, Volume: 11, Issue:8 The effect of synthetic isothiocyanate ethyl-4-isothiocyanatobutanoate (E-4IB) on survival of mismatch repair-proficient TK6 and -deficient MT1 cell lines as well as the influence of proteasomal inhibitor MG132, caspase inhibitor Z-VAD-fmk, and ATM inhibitor caffeine on E-4IB modulation of cell cycle and apoptosis was evaluated. Flow cytometric analyses of DNA double strand breaks (gamma-H2AX), mitotic fraction (phospho-histone H3), cell cycle modulation, apoptosis induction (sub-G(0) fraction and fluorescein diacetate staining), and dissipation of transmembrane mitochondrial potential (JC-1 staining) were performed. Western blotting was used for the evaluation of ERK activation, expression of p53, p21(cip1/waf1) and GADD45alpha proteins, as well as PARP fragmentation. Analysis of mitotic nuclei was performed for chromosomal aberrations assessment. MT1 cells were more resistant to E-4IB treatment then TK6 cells (IC(50) 8 muM vs. 4 muM). In both cell lines E-4IB treatment induced phosphorylation of H2AX, increase of p53 protein level, phospho-histone H3 staining, and G(2)/M arrest. The sub-G(0) fragmentation was accompanied by PARP degradation, decreased mitochondrial transmembrane potential, and diminished p21(cip1/waf1) protein expression in TK6 cells. Caspase inhibitor Z-VAD-fmk decreased E-4IB induced sub-G(0) fragmentation and extent of apoptosis in TK6 cells, while proteasome inhibitor MG132 increased number of apoptotic cells in both cell lines tested. A number of aberrant metaphases and clastogenic effect of high E-4IB concentration was observed. The synthetic isothiocyanate E-4IB induced DNA strand breaks, increased mitotic fraction and apoptosis potentiated by MG132 inhibitor in both mismatch repair-proficient and -deficient cell lines.
