IL-1β Acts in Synergy with Endogenous IL-1β in A375-S2 Human Melanoma Cell Apoptosis Through Mitochondrial Pathway

Abstract: Interleukin-1β (IL-1β) is a pivotal proinflammatory cytokine. To investigate the mechanism of IL-1β-induced cell death in human malignant melanoma A375-S2 cells, MTT assay, photomicroscopical observation, DNA agarose gel electrophoresis, radioimmunoassay and Western blot analysis were carried out. IL-1β did not only induce nuclear condensation and DNA fragmentation, but also increased degradation of two substrates of caspase-3, poly ADP-ribose polymerase (PARP) and inhibitor of caspase-activated DNase (ICAD). … Show more

“…Thus, 100 µg/ml cis-UCA was optimally anti-inflammatory and cytoprotective against cellular damage caused by UV-B radiation in the present experimental setting. It should be noted that the decrease in mitochondrial metabolic activity measured by the MTT assay after UV-B irradiation may not be caused by the irradiation only because the UV-B dose induced IL-6 secretion at the nanomolar level, which can directly decrease MTT metabolism [30]. The UV-B irradiation induced caspase-3 activity in both cell types, which revealed apoptotic cell death and supported the MTT assay data.…”

“…IL-1β released from the activation of spinal microglia enhanced the AMPA response in neurons through IL-1R activation which led to acute and chronic pain, and IL-1R antagonist (IL-1RA) can abolish these effects of IL-1β (Gustafson-Vickers et al 2008;Kawasaki et al 2008;Liu et al 2013). IL-1β-induced apoptosis was mediated by mitochondria, through up-regulation of Bax and down-regulation of Bcl-2 and Bcl-x L to initiate caspase-9 activity, leading to the activation of caspase-3 in this apoptotic process (Wang et al 2005). IL-1R is expressed in the PC12 cells and IL-1β has toxic effect on PC12 cells by binding with IL-1R.…”

“…In the study of Lui et al, this method was used for evaluating the inhibitory effects of a fusion protein of IL-1Ra with an extended half-life. The results showed that 32 nM of IL-1Ra led to 100 % inhibition effects of 1 ng/mL IL-1β [19]. The concentrations of IL-1Ra-ABD used in the present study were higher than those investigated by Lui et al In another study, Yu-Xin produced several mutated forms of IL-1Ra and compared their biological activities with those of native IL-1Ra.…”

“…For biological assay, on the other hand, we used the potent cytotoxic and apoptotic effects of IL-1β against cells with highly expressed of IL-1R [19]. Furthermore, based on the effects of Anakinra in preventing the cytotoxic effects of IL-1β, the protocol mentioned in the methods section was used.…”
