The retro-retinoids, metabolites of vitamin A (retinol), belong to a family of lipophilic signalling molecules implicated in regulation of cell growth and survival. Growth-promoting properties have been ascribed to 14-hydroxy-retro-retinol (14HRR), while anhydroretinol (AR) was discovered to act as a natural antagonist triggering growth arrest and death by apoptosis. Based on morphological studies and inhibition of apoptosis by the kinase blocker, herbimycin A, it has been suggested that retro-retinoids exhibit their function in the cytosolic compartment. F-actin emerged as a functional target for retro-retinoid action. By FACS analysis and fluorescence microscopy of phalloidin-FITC labeled cells we demonstrated that F-actin reorganization was an early event in AR-triggered apoptosis. Fluorescence images of AR-treated fibroblasts displayed short, thick, stick-like and punctate structures, and membrane ruffles at the cell periphery along with an increased diffuse staining pattern. Reversal of the AR effect by 14HRR or retinol indicates that F-actin is a common site for regulation by retro-retinoids. Inhibition of both cell death and actin depolymerisation by bcl-2 implies that cytoskeleton reorganization is downstream of bcl-2-related processes. Furthermore, stabilization of microfilaments by jasplakinolide increased the survival potential of AR treated cells, while weakening the cytoskeleton by cytochalasin B abetted apoptosis. Thus the cytoskeleton is an important way station in a communication network that decides whether a cell should live or die.
