Abstract
Hypoxia is classically considered to result in a necrotic form of cell injury. We have recently demonstrated a role of endonuclease activation, considered a feature of apoptosis, in DNA damage and cell death in chemical hypoxic injury to renal tubular epithelial cells (LLC-PK1 cells). Tyrosine phosphorylation has been implicated to be involved in cell signaling pathway leading to cell growth, proliferation, and apoptotic death. However, a role of tyrosine phosphorylation as a signal transduction pathway involved in DNA damage and cell death has not been previously examined in hypoxic injury in any tissue. In the present study, we have demonstrated that chemical hypoxia with a combination of antimycin A, a mitochondrial respiration inhibitor, and substrate deprivation resulted in rapid increase in protein tyrosine kinases activity and protein tyrosine phosphorylation prior to any evidence of cell death in LLC-PK1 cells. The inhibitors of protein tyrosine kinases, genistein, lavendustin A, tyrphostin, and herbimycin A provided a marked protection against chemical hypoxia-induced DNA damage (as measured by alkaline unwinding assay) and cell death (as measured by trypan blue exclusion assay). In a separate study, we confirmed the a...Continue Reading
