Adriamycin-induced apoptosis of renal tubular cells has been reported in adriamycin-treated rats. In addition, prostacyclin (PGI(2)) is known to have various protective effects on many kinds of cells. To investigate the protective effect of PGI(2) on cells undergoing adriamycin-induced apoptosis, this study selectively augmented PGI(2) production via adenovirus-mediated transfer of genes for cyclooxygenase-1 (COX-1) and prostacyclin synthase (PGIS) (two key enzymes of PGI(2) synthesis) to renal tubular cells. This PGI(2) overexpression protected rat renal tubular cells from adriamycin-induced apoptosis. Ad-COX-1/PGIS transfection was found to reduce the adriamycin-stimulated activities of caspase-3 and caspase-9, inhibit adriamycin-induced release of cytochrome c, elevate the expression of Bcl-x(L), and suppress the activation and translocation of nuclear factor-kappaB (NF-kappaB) in adriamycin-treated renal tubular cells. Our results reveal that selective augmentation of PGI(2) production can protect rat renal tubular cells from adriamycin-induced apoptosis via the NF-kappaB signaling pathway. This implies the therapeutic potential of combined COX-1 and PGIS gene transfer in gene therapy for chronic renal diseases. ------>tmu_sno=None ------>sno=15509 ------>authors2=Lin H ------>authors3=Hsu YH ------>authors4=Sue YM ------>authors5=Cheng TH ------>authors6=Chan P, Chen TH ------>authors6_c= ------>authors=Chen CH ------>delete_flag=0 ------>SCI_JNo=None ------>authors2_c= ------>publish_area=0 ------>updateTitle=The protective effect of prostacyclin on adriamycin-induced apoptosis in rat renal tubular cells. ------>language=2 ------>check_flag=None ------>submit_date=None ------>country=None ------>no=1-3 ------>patent_SDate=None ------>update_bywho=None ------>publish_year=2006 ------>submit_flag=None ------>publish_month=1 |
