title: Induction of antioxidant enzymes by FAK in a human leukemic cell line, HL-60.
abstract: We have established several focal adhesion kinase (FAK) cDNA-transfected HL-60 (HL-60/FAK) cells which were highly resistant to oxidative stress-induced apoptosis. To identify target genes that are involved in HL-60/FAK cells, we performed cDNA microarray screening using apoptosis-chip. There, we identified the decrease of glutathione peroxidase (GPx). This result prompted us to investigate the changes of antioxidant enzymes. Here, we demonstrate that lipid peroxidation was suppressed after treatment with hydrogen peroxide in HL-60/FAK cells but not vector-transfected HL-60 (HL-60/Vect) cells. Furthermore, we demonstrate that HL-60/FAK cells have higher basal reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels than the parental HL-60 or HL-60/Vect cells, while ROS accumulation by hydrogen peroxide treatment was almost the same in these cells. Basal activity and mRNA expression of antioxidant enzymes, particularly of GSH reductase (GRe), phospholipid hydroperoxide glutathione peroxidase (PHGPx) were markedly elevated in HL-60/FAK cells. In contrast, GPx and catalase levels were decreased in HL-60/FAK cells. Further, a Src family kinases inhibitor, PP2, suppressed GRe and PHGPx mRNA by inactivation of FAK and c-Src in HL-60/FAK cells. These results suggest that FAK upregulates antioxidant enzymes and suppresses lipid peroxidation, resulting in the anti-apoptotic state for oxidative stress.
