摘要: The roles of tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-alpha) and its mediators in cellular processes related to intestinal diseases remain elusive. In this study, we aimed determine the biological role activated Cdc42-associated kinase 1 (ACK1) TNF-alpha-mediated apoptosis proliferation Caco-2 cells. ACK1 expression was knocked down using ACK1-specific siRNAs, activity disrupted a small molecule inhibitor. Terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase biotin-dUTP Nick End Labeling (TUNEL) BrdU incorporation assays were used measure cell proliferation, respectively. siRNA pharmacological inhibitor significantly abrogated anti-apoptotic effects Interestingly, TNF-alpha at tyrosine 284 (Tyr284), ErbB family proteins implicated activation ACK1-Tyr284 required for protein B (AKT) activation, signaling mediated through recruiting phosphorylating down-stream adaptor AKT, which likely promoted response TNF-alpha. Moreover, AKT Src enhanced nuclear factor-кB (NF-кB) activity, suggesting correlation between NF-кB Our results demonstrate that plays an important modulating TNF-alpha-induced aberrant apoptosis, part by activation. effectors may hold promise as therapeutic targets prevention treatment gastrointestinal cancers, particular, those induced chronic inflammation.
