The transcription factor nuclear factor (NF) {kappa}B is involved in the regulation of cell survival. NF{kappa}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{kappa}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{kappa}B using a preexisting pathway that requires a functional I{kappa}B-specific kinase complex, I{kappa}B-specific kinase activation, I{kappa}B-{alpha} phosphorylation, and degradation. Blocking NF{kappa}B activation by stable expression of a mutant super-repressor I{kappa}B-{alpha} molecule sensitized HeLa cells to the apoptotic actions of drugs and tumor necrosis factor. RNase protection assay analysis demonstrate that NF{kappa}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-{kappa}B activation seems to shift the death/survival balance toward apoptosis.
