摘要
Our previous reports indicated that cyclic AMP response element-binding (CREB) protein was involved in the regulation of Bcl-2 expression in apoptotic HeLa cells induced by trichosanthin (TCS). Here we presented that blockade the binding site of CREB to Bcl-2 by a CRE decoy oligonucleotide abrogated the TCS-decreased Bcl-2 expression. Furthermore, overexpression of phosphorylated CREB (p-CREB) in cells transfected with p-CREB/GFP fusion construct resulted in an increase of Bcl-2 protein content, however, this increase was attenuated by TCS treatment. Therefore, this data supports the hypothesis that CREB is a possible upstream regulator of Bcl-2 in apoptotic HeLa cells induced by TCS. The study provides new insights into understanding the mechanism of TCS in the treatment of cervical cancer.
