Abstract

Evidence suggests that solar ultraviolet B (UVB) radiation inhibits growth and/or induces apoptosis of human skin cells. However, mechanisms underlying the UVB-induced anti-survival and pro-apoptotic effects on human skin cells remain unclear. In this study, we investigated the effect of UVB radiation on survival and apoptosis of HaCaT human keratinocytes and determined possible molecular, cellular and signaling mechanisms including cross-regulation, which are responsible for the UVB's anti-survival and/or pro-apoptotic effects. The results showed that UVB radiation at 400 mJ/cm² for 8 h largely decreased cell survival and induced DNA fragmentation, an index of apoptosis, in HaCaT human keratinocytes. On a mechanistic level, UVB radiation triggered the activation of caspase-9, cleavage of poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase, and downregulation of myeloid cell leukemia-1 (Mcl-1), human inhibitor of apoptosis protein-1 (HIAP-1), X-linked IAP (XIAP), and protein kinase B (PKB), but did not affect the expression of B-cell lymphoma-2 in HaCaT cells. UVB radiation also upregulated the expression of glucose-regulated protein 78 (GRP78), an endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress marker, in HaCaT cells. Of note, results of pharmacological inhibition...Continue Reading

B-Cell Lymphoma

B-cell lymphomas include lymphomas that affect B cells. This subtype of cancer accounts for over 80% of non-Hodgkin lymphomas in the US. Here is the latest research.

BCL-2 Family Proteins

BLC-2 family proteins are a group that share the same homologous BH domain. They play many different roles including pro-survival signals, mitochondria-mediated apoptosis and removal or damaged cells. They are often regulated by phosphorylation, affecting their catalytic activity. Here is the latest research on BCL-2 family proteins.

Apoptotic Caspases

Apoptotic caspases belong to the protease enzyme family and are known to play an essential role in inflammation and programmed cell death. Here is the latest research.

Apoptosis

Apoptosis is a specific process that leads to programmed cell death through the activation of an evolutionary conserved intracellular pathway leading to pathognomic cellular changes distinct from cellular necrosis
