Popis: | The effect of hexapeptide HLDF-6, the granulocytic differentiation inducer, on the tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-alpha)-induced differentiation and apoptosis of human promyelocytic leukemia HL-60 cells has been investigated. Costimulation of HL-60 cells with HLDF-6 and TNF-alpha enhanced granulocyte differentiation, whereas the level of monocyte differentiation remained unchanged; however, the cytotoxic action of TNF-alpha on these cells decreased. The protective effect of HLDF-6 peptide did not depend on activation of NF-kappaB (nuclear transcription factor). Since HLDF-6 peptide decreases the number of cells entering apoptosis caused by C(2)-ceramide, a mediator of TNF-induced apoptosis, and also reduces TNF-alpha-mediated activation of caspase-3, we have proposed the hypothesis that HLDF-6 increases resistance of HL-60 cells to the TNF-alpha cytotoxic effect due to inhibition of some stages of mitochondria-dependent apoptotic signaling. |
