Abstract

The role of p53 in apoptosis and the contrasting p53 status in tumors prompted us to investigate the bleomycin-induced apoptosis in p53-null human leukemia HL-60 cells (bleomycin at 160 µM for 7.5 h). Cells with apoptotic phenotype increased from 0.87% in controls to 9.40% in bleomycin-treated cells. Both the enzymes, caspase-3 and -8, were activated. Furthermore, the apoptotic phenotypes totally disappeared with zVAD-fmk, a caspase inhibitor. Besides, cytochrome c release from mitochondria happened simultaneously to apoptotic phenotypes, shrinkage of mitochondria but being independent of the mitochondrial permeability transition, since cyclosporine A and bongkrekic acid were inefficient on induced apoptosis. On the other hand, incubations with bleomycin (BLM) did not result in detectable changes in the expression of Bcl-2- and Bax-mRNA neither Bcl-2- or Bax-proteins. In conclusion, we suggest that BLM can produce apoptosis independently of p53 through three mechanisms: i) at the nuclear level by its endonuclease activities; ii) at the cell membrane, by activating caspases; and iii) at the mitochondria by releasing cytochrome c. These results indicate that BLM-induced apoptosis in HL-60 cells results from the activation of a mitochondria-dependent caspase cascade which includes also the activation of the initiator caspase-8.
