Resistance of colorectal cancer cells to chemotherapeutic drugs increases as cells reach confluence. Here we show that the small stress protein HSP27, which has been described to block necrotic and apoptotic cell death, accumulates in confluent human colorectal cancer cell lines HT-29 and Caco2. Cell confluence also induces HSP27 phosphorylation and changes in its intracellular distribution. We also show that overexpression of human HSP27 by transfection of HT-29 cells increased the resistance of cells to doxorubicin or cisplatin and prevented drug-induced apoptosis. Interestingly, nonconfluent HSP27-transfected cells and confluent control cells in which HSP27 is expressed at the same level displayed a similar drug resistance. HSP27-transfected cells did not exhibit an enhanced resistance when they reached confluence, nor was there an increased accumulation of HSP27. We have previously shown that HSP27 expression blocks tumor necrosis factor-induced cell death as a result of decreasing intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS). Here we show that HSP27 overexpression in HT-29 cells, obtained either by transfection or by growing the cells at high density, correlated with a significant ROS decrease. We conclude that cell confluent-dependent HSP27 accumulation, probably due to its ability to decrease ROS levels, is essential for the establishment of the resistance of colorectal cancer cells when reaching confluence.
