Summary

4-Hydroxynonenal (HNE), a diffusible product of lipid peroxidation, has been suggested to be a key mediator of oxidative stress-induced cell death. In this study, we partially characterized the mechanism of HNE-mediated cytotoxicity. Incubation of human T lymphoma Jurkat cells with 20–50 μM HNE led to cell death accompanied by DNA fragmentation. Western blot analysis showed that HNE-treatment induced time- and dose-dependent activation of caspase-8, caspase-9 and caspase-3. HNE-induced caspase-3 processing was confirmed by a flow cytometric demonstration of increased catalytic activity on the substrate peptide. HNE treatment also led to remarkable cleavage of poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP), which was prevented by pretreatment of cells with DEVD-FMK as a caspase-3 inhibitor. The HNE-mediated activation of caspases, cleavage of PARP and DNA fragmentation were blocked by antioxidants cysteine, N-acety-L-cysteine and dithiothreitol, but not by two other HNE-reactive amino acids lysine and histidine, or by cystine, the oxidized form of cysteine. HNE rapidly decreased levels of intracellular reduced glutathione (GSH) and its oxidized form GSSG, and these were also attenuated by the reductants. Coincubation of Jurkat cells with a blocking anti-Fas antibody prevented Fas-induced but not HNE-induced activation of caspase-3. HNE also activated caspase-3 in K562 cells that do not express functional Fas. Our results thereby demonstrate that HNE triggers oxidative stress-linked apoptotic cell death through activation of the caspase cascade. The results also suggest a possible mechanism involving a direct scavenge of intracellular GSH by HNE.

2020 at The Company of Biologists

Despite the challenges of 2020, we were able to bring a number of long-term projects and new ventures to fruition. While we look forward to a new year, join us as we reflect on the triumphs of the last 12 months.

Mole – The Corona Files

"This is not going to go away, 'like a miracle.' We have to do magic. And I know we can."

Mole continues to offer his wise words to researchers on how to manage during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Cell scientist to watch – Christine Faulkner

In an interview, Christine Faulkner talks about where her interest in plant science began, how she found the transition between Australia and the UK, and shares her thoughts on virtual conferences.

Read & Publish participation extends worldwide

“The clear advantages are rapid and efficient exposure and easy access to my article around the world. I believe it is great to have this publishing option in fast-growing fields in biomedical research.”

Dr Jaceques Behmoaras (Imperial College London) shares his experience of publishing Open Access as part of our growing Read & Publish initiative. We now have over 60 institutions in 12 countries taking part – find out more and view our full list of participating institutions.
