Cím:	Retinoids Induce A Nur77-Dependent Apoptosis In Mouse Thymocytes / Beata Kiss, Katalin Tóth, Zsolt Sarang, Éva Garabuczi, László Fésüs, Zsuzsa Szondy
Dátum:	2012
Megjegyzések:	Nur77 is a transcription factor, which plays a determinant role in mediating T cell receptor-induced cell death of thymocytes. In addition to regulation of transcription, Nur77 contributes to apoptosis induction by targeting mitochondria, where it can convert Bcl-2, an anti-apoptotic protein into a proapoptotic molecule. Previous studies have demonstrated that retinoids are actively produced in the mouse thymus and can induce a transcription-dependent apoptosis in mouse thymocytes. Here we show that similar to TCR stimulation, retinoic acids also induce the expression of Nur77 in a dose-dependent manner, 9-cis retinoic acid being more effective than all-trans retinoic acid. Retinoid-induced apoptosis was found to be completely dependent on Nur77, as retinoids were unable to induce apoptosis in Nur77 null thymocytes. In wild-type thymocytes retinoids induced the expression of five apoptosis-related genes, FasL, TRAIL, NDG-1, Gpr65 and Bid, all of them in a Nur77-dependent manner. The combined action of these proteins led to Caspase 8-dependent Bid cleavage in the mitochondria. In addition, we could demonstrate the mitochondrial translocation of Nur77 leading to the exposure of the Bcl-2/BH3 domain. The retinoid-induced apoptosis was dependent on both Caspase 8 and 9. Our data together indicate that retinoids induce a Nur77-dependent cell death program in thymocytes activating the mitochondrial pathway of apoptosis.
