Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Sulfasalazine (SSZ) is an inhibitor of the cystine-glutamate antiporter known to reduce intracellular glutathione level and increase cellular oxidative stress, giving its anti-tumor potential. SSZ enhanced radiation-induced apoptosis in Molt-4 cells via the involvement of both intrinsic and extrinsic apoptotic pathways. In addition, to understand characteristics of stem cells, the immortalized human amniotic mesenchymal cells (iHAMs) and immortalized human amniotic epithelial cells (iHAEs) were utilized. To reveal response of these cells against X-rays and hydrogen peroxide, intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS), cell viability, and apoptois were examined. Intracellular ROS level significantly increased in iHAMs after treatment, consequently cell viability also significantly decreased in iHAMs, but not in iHAEs. Radiation-induced apoptosis was also higher in iHAMs. Furthermore, proteins related to oxidative stress were also determined and detailed mechanism was discussed.
