We evaluated IRF-1-induced apoptosis in gastric cancer cell lines. We established stable clones in AGS cells that have a tetracycline-inducible IRF-1 expression system. We used these clones and recombinant adenovirus expressing IRF-1 to explore the mechanism of IRF-1-induced apoptosis in gastric cancer. Expression of IRF-1 causes apoptosis in gastric cancer cell lines as shown by phosphatidylserine exposure and cleavage of caspase-8, caspase-3, and Bid with the mitochondrial release of cytochrome c. However, inhibition of caspase-8 and Bid did not inhibit apoptosis and did not decrease cleaved caspase-9 or mitochondrial release of cytochrome c. We then show that IRF-1 upregulates PUMA (p53 upregulated modulator of apoptosis), which is known to activate apoptosis by the intrinsic pathway; this can be p53-independent. IRF-1 binds to distinct sites in the promoter of PUMA and activates PUMA transcription. Moreover, molecular markers of mitochondrial apoptosis are eliminated in PUMA knockout and knockdown cells and phosphatidylserine exposure is decreased dramatically. Finally, we show that IFN-gamma induces IRF-1-mediated upregulation of PUMA in cancer cells. We conclude that IRF-1 can induce apoptosis by the intrinsic pathway independent of the extrinsic pathway by upregulation of PUMA."xsd:string |
