摘要: Sulindac sulfone (Exisulind) induces apoptosis and exhibits cancer chemopreventive activity, but in contrast to sulindac, it does not inhibit cyclooxygenases 1 or 2. We found that sulindac two potent derivatives, CP248 CP461, inhibited the cyclic GMP (cGMP) phosphodiesterases (PDE) 2 5 human colon cells, these compounds caused rapid sustained activation of c-Jun NH2-terminal kinase (JNK1). Rapid stress-activated protein/ERK (SEK1) mitogen-activated protein (MEKK1), which are upstream JNK1, was also observed. Other increase cellular levels cGMP activated an inhibitor G (PKG), Rp-8-pCPT-cGMPS, JNK1 by derivatives. Expression a dominant-negative CP248-induced cleavage poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase, marker apoptosis. Thus, appears related induce apoptosis, at least part, through PKG, then activates MEKK1-SEK1-JNK1 cascade. These studies indicate role for PKG JNK pathway.
