    Abstract The importance of post-translational modifications (PTMs), particularly O-GlcNAcylation, of cytoplasmic proteins in apoptosis has been neglected for quite a while. Modification of cytoplasmic proteins by a single N-acetylglucosamine sugar is a dynamic and reversible PTM exhibiting properties more like phosphorylation than classical O- and N-linked glycosylation. Due to the sparse information existing, we have only limited understanding of how GlcNAcylation affects cell death. Deciphering the role of GlcNAcylation in cell fate may provide further understanding of cell fate decisions. This review focus on the modulation of extrinsic apoptotic pathway via GlcNAcylation carried out by O-GlcNAc transferase (OGT) or by other bacterial effector proteins.

    Abstract Breast cancer is still the most common cancer in women worldwide. Resistance to drugs and recurrence of the disease are two leading causes of failure in treatment. For a more efficient treatment of patients, the development of novel therapeutic regimes is needed. Recent studies indicate that modulation of autophagy in concert with apoptosis induction may provide a promising novel strategy in breast cancer treatment. Apoptosis and autophagy are two tightly regulated distinct cellular processes. To maintain tissue homeostasis abnormal cells are disposed largely by means of apoptosis. Autophagy, however, contributes to tissue homeostasis and cell fitness by scavenging of damaged organelles, lipids, proteins, and DNA. Defects in autophagy promote tumorigenesis, whereas upon tumor formation rapidly proliferating cancer cells may rely on autophagy to survive. Given that evasion of apoptosis is one of the characteristic hallmarks of cancer cells, inhibiting autophagy and promoting apoptosis can negatively influence cancer cell survival and increase cell death. Hence, combination of antiautophagic agents with the enhancement of apoptosis may restore apoptosis and provide a therapeutic advantage against breast cancer. In this review, we discuss the cross-talk of autophagy and apoptosis and the diverse facets of autophagy in breast cancer cells leading to novel models for more effective therapeutic strategies.

    Abstract Extrinsic apoptosis is mediated by the activation of death receptors (DRs) such as CD95/Fas/APO-1 or tumor necrosis factor-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL)-receptor 1/receptor 2 (TRAIL-R1/R2). Stimulation of these receptors with their cognate ligands leads to the assembly of the death-inducing signaling complex (DISC). DISC comprises DR, the adaptor protein Fas-associated protein with death domain (FADD), procaspases-8/-10, and cellular FADD-like interleukin (IL)-1β-converting enzyme-inhibitory proteins (c-FLIPs). The DISC serves as a platform for procaspase-8 processing and activation. The latter occurs via its dimerization/oligomerization in the death effector domain (DED) filaments assembled at the DISC. Activation of procaspase-8 is followed by its processing, which occurs in several steps. In this work, an established experimental workflow is described that allows the measurement of DISC formation and the processing of procaspase-8 in this complex. The workflow is based on immunoprecipitation techniques supported by western blot analysis. This workflow allows careful monitoring of different steps of procaspase-8 recruitment to the DISC and its processing and is highly relevant for investigating molecular mechanisms of extrinsic apoptosis.

    Abstract CD95 is a member of the death receptor family and is well-known to promote apoptosis. However, accumulating evidence indicates that in some context CD95 has not only the potential to induce apoptosis but also can trigger non-apoptotic signal leading to cell survival, proliferation, cancer growth and metastasis. Despite extensive investigations focused on alterations in the expression level of CD95 and associated signal molecules, very few studies, however, have investigated the effects of post-translational modifications such as glycosylation, phosphorylation, palmitoylation, nitrosylation and glutathionylation on CD95 function. Post-translational modifications of CD95 in mammalian systems are likely to play a more prominent role than anticipated in CD95 induced cell death. In this review we will focus on the alterations in CD95-mediated signaling caused by post-translational modifications of CD95.

    Abstract RL2 (recombinant lactaptin 2), a recombinant analogon of the human milk protein Κ-Casein, induces mitophagy and cell death in breast carcinoma cells. Furthermore, RL2 was shown to enhance extrinsic apoptosis upon long-term treatment while inhibiting it upon short-term stimulation. However, the effects of RL2 on the action of chemotherapeutic drugs that induce the intrinsic apoptotic pathway have not been investigated to date. Here, we examined the effects of RL2 on the doxorubicin (DXR)-induced cell death in breast cancer cells with three different backgrounds. In particular, we used BT549 and MDA-MB-231 triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) cells, T47D estrogen receptor alpha (ERα) positive cells, and SKBR3 human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) positive cells. BT549, MDA-MB-231, and T47D cells showed a severe loss of cell viability upon RL2 treatment, accompanied by the induction of mitophagy. Furthermore, BT549, MDA-MB-231, and T47D cells could be sensitized towards DXR treatment with RL2, as evidenced by loss of cell viability. In contrast, SKBR3 cells showed almost no RL2-induced loss of cell viability when treated with RL2 alone, and RL2 did not sensitize SKBR3 cells towards DXR-mediated loss of cell viability. Bioinformatic analysis of gene expression showed an enrichment of genes controlling metabolism in SKBR3 cells compared to the other cell lines. This suggests that the metabolic status of the cells is important for their sensitivity to RL2. Taken together, we have shown that RL2 can enhance the intrinsic apoptotic pathway in TNBC and ERα-positive breast cancer cells, paving the way for the development of novel therapeutic strategies.

    Abstract Human apurinic/apyrimidinic endonuclease 1 (APE1) has multiple functions in base excision DNA repair (BER) and other cellular processes. Its eukaryote-specific N-terminal extension plays diverse regulatory roles in interaction with different partners. Here, we explored its involvement in interaction with canonical BER proteins. Using fluorescence based-techniques, we compared binding affinities of the full-length and N-terminally truncated forms of APE1 (APE1NΔ35 and APE1NΔ61) for functionally and structurally different DNA polymerase β (Polβ), X-ray repair cross-complementing protein 1 (XRCC1), and poly(adenosine diphosphate (ADP)-ribose) polymerase 1 (PARP1), in the absence and presence of model DNA intermediates. Influence of the N-terminal truncation on binding the AP site-containing DNA was additionally explored. These data suggest that the interaction domain for proteins is basically formed by the conserved catalytic core of APE1. The N-terminal extension being capable of dynamically interacting with the protein and DNA partners is mostly responsible for DNA-dependent modulation of protein-protein interactions. Polβ, XRCC1, and PARP1 were shown to more efficiently regulate the endonuclease activity of the full-length protein than that of APE1NΔ61, further suggesting contribution of the N-terminal extension to BER coordination. Our results advance the understanding of functional roles of eukaryote-specific protein extensions in highly coordinated BER processes.
