ALTERATIONS IN IMMUNOGLOBULIN SYNTHESIS DURING ADRIAMYCIN-INDUCED APOPTOSIS IN MOUSE HYBRIDOMA CELLS
Changes in the immunoglobulin synthesis in mouse hybridoma 1F7cell line following exposure to the anticancer drug adriamycin were studied. It was shown that adriamycin in concentrations up to 0.1μg/ml causes dose-dependent reversible enhancement of immunoglobulin heavy γ2bchain synthesis, and to a l...

Summary: | Changes in the immunoglobulin synthesis in mouse hybridoma 1F7cell line following exposure to the anticancer drug adriamycin were studied. It was shown that adriamycin in concentrations up to 0.1μg/ml causes dose-dependent reversible enhancement of immunoglobulin heavy γ2bchain synthesis, and to a lesser extent, κ light chain synthesis. Enhancement of γ2bheavy chain synthesis accompanies an increase in Ig γ2bmRNA levels. Enhancement of DNA-binding activity of another B-cell specific protein, octamer transcription factor Oct-2 was also observed. Cell cycle analysis revealed accumulation of the ADR-treated cells in G2/M phase of cell cycle. These changes in hybridoma cells preceded the onset of internucleosomal DNA fragmentation and appearance of morphological characteristics of apoptosis. These findings suggest, that differentiation-related processes occur during the latent phase of apoptosis induced by adria-mycin in mouse hybridoma cells. |
