The transcription factor nuclear factor (NF)
B is involved in the regulation of cell survival. NF
B is activated in many malignant tumors and seems to play a role in the resistance to cytostatic treatments and escape from apoptosis. We have studied the effects on NF
B activation of two topoisomerase poisons and DNA damaging agents that are used in chemotherapy: SN38 (7-ethyl-10-hydroxycamptothecin), the active metabolite of CPT11, and doxorubicin. In HeLa cells, both drugs activate NF
B using a preexisting pathway that requires a functional I
B-specific kinase complex, I
B-specific kinase activation, I
B-
phosphorylation, and degradation. Blocking NF
B activation by stable expression of a mutant super-repressor I
B-
molecule sensitized HeLa cells to the apoptotic actions of drugs and tumor necrosis factor. RNase protection assay analysis demonstrate that NF
B is involved in the regulation of a complex pattern of gene activation and repression during the cellular response of HeLa cells to topoisomerase poisons. The blockade of NF-
B activation seems to shift the death/survival balance toward apoptosis.
