INTRODUCTION

Cell death by injury

-Mechanical damage

-Exposure to toxic chemicals

Cell death by suicide

-Internal signals

-External signals

Page 3: APOPTOSIS: An overview

Conted…..

Apoptosis or programmed cell death, is carefully coordinated collapse of cell, protein degradation , DNA fragmentation followed by rapid engulfment of corpses by neighbouring cells. (Tommi, 2002)

Essential part of life for every multicellular organism from worms to humans. (Faddy et al.,1992)

Apoptosis plays a major role from embryonic development to senescence.

Page 4: APOPTOSIS: An overview

Why should a cell commit suicide?Apoptosis is needed for proper developmentExamples: – The resorption of the tadpole tail

– The formation of the fingers and toes of the fetus

– The sloughing off of the inner lining of the uterus

– The formation of the proper connections between neurons in the brain

Apoptosis is needed to destroy cells

Examples: – Cells infected with viruses

– Cells of the immune system

– Cells with DNA damage

– Cancer cells

Page 5: APOPTOSIS: An overview

What makes a cell decide to commit suicide?

Withdrawal of positive signalsexamples : – growth factors for neurons – Interleukin-2 (IL-2)

Receipt of negative signals examples : – increased levels of oxidants within the cell – damage to DNA by oxidants – death activators :

• Tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-) • Lymphotoxin (TNF-β) • Fas ligand (FasL)

History of cell death / apoptosis research

1800s Numerous observation of cell death

1908 Mechnikov wins Nobel prize (phagocytosis)

1930-40 Studies of metamorphosis

1948-49 Cell death in chick limb & exploration of NGF

1955 Beginning of studies of lysomes

1964-66 Necrosis & PCD described

1971 Term apoptosis coined

1977 Cell death genes in C. elegans

1980-82 DNA ladder observed & ced-3 identified

1989-91 Apoptosis genes identified, including bcl-2, fas/apo1 & p53, ced-3 sequenced

(Richerd et.al., 2001)

Page 7: APOPTOSIS: An overview

Necrosis vs. Apoptosis

• Cellular condensation

• Membranes remain intact

• Requires ATP

• Cell is phagocytosed, no tissue reaction

• Ladder-like DNA fragmentation

• In vivo, individual cells appear affected

• Cellular swelling

• Membranes are broken

• ATP is depleted

• Cell lyses, eliciting an inflammatory reaction

• DNA fragmentation is random, or smeared

• In vivo, whole areas of the tissue are affected

REGULATION OF APOPTOSIS

Stimuli apoptosis selection of targets (Rich et al., 2000)

Apoptosis by conflicting signals that scramble the normal status of cell (Canlon & Raff, 1999)

Apoptotic stimulicytokines, death factors (FasL)

(Tabibzadeh et al., 1999)

DNA breaks p53 is activated arrest cell cycle or activate self destruction (Blaint & Vousden, 2001)

Page 22: APOPTOSIS: An overview

Importance of Apoptosis

• Important in normal physiology / development– Development: Immune systems maturation,

Morphogenesis, Neural development– Adult: Immune privilege, DNA Damage and wound

repair.

• Excess apoptosis– Neurodegenerative diseases

• Deficient apoptosis– Cancer– Autoimmunity

Page 23: APOPTOSIS: An overview

FUTURE PERSPECTIVES

The biological roles of newly identified death

receptors and ligands need to be studied

Need to know whether defects in these ligands

and receptors contribute to disease

Page 24: APOPTOSIS: An overview

CONCLUSION

an important process of cell death

can be initiated extrinsically through death ligands (e.g. TRAIL, FasL) activating initiator caspase 8 through

induced proximity.

can be initiated intrinsically through DNA damage (via cytochrome c) activating initiator caspase 9 through oligomerization.

Initiator caspases 8 and 9 cleave and activate effector caspase 3, which leads to cell death.

P53 & Apoptosis

p53 first arrests cell growth between G1 S

This allows for DNA repair during delay

If the damage is too extensive then p53 induces gene activation leading to apoptosis (programmed cell death)

3 mechanisms of caspase activationa. Proteolytic cleavage e.g.

pro-caspase 3

b. Induced proximity, e.g. pro-caspase 8

c. Oligomerization, e.g. cyt c, Apaf-1 & caspase 9
