| Abstract: | Recently it has been reported that arsenic trioxide (As203) is very
effective in the treatment of acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) by inducing apoptosis,
but the molecular mechanism of its action on other leukemia remains unclear. In the
present study, we tested the effect of As2 O3 at low concentration O.25-2.O μM on K562, a
chronic myelogenous leukemia cell line. As2 03 inhibited the cell growth of K562 in a
similar way to APL cell line NB4. Typical oncotic cell death, such as cytoplasmic
swelling and swelling of organelles, was observed by morphological study and cell cycle
was arrested at G2+M phases. During the treatment of As2 03, the CD95 and CD95 ligand
(CD95L) expressions were upregulated, and caspase 8 and caspase 3 were activated, but
bcl-2 expression was not changed. Treatment of the cells with anti-CD95 monoclonal
antibody or ZVAD-fmk capable of blocking the CD95 signaling pathway ameliorated
As2 03-induced oncosis. These results suggest that the induction of oncosis by As2 03
invoIves CD95/CD95L pathway in K562 and As2 03 may provide a novel therapy for
leukemia other than APL. |
