Tumor Biology

Tumor necrosis factor-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL) is a new cytokine that was proposed to specifically induce apoptosis of cancer cells. In tumor cells that are resistant to the cytokine, subtoxic concentrations of chemotherapeutic drugs can restore the response to TRAIL. The present study further explores the mechanisms that determine tumor cell sensitivity to TRAIL by comparing four human colon carcinoma cell lines. We show that colon cancer cell sensitivity to TRAIL-induced apoptosis and cytotoxicity correlates with the expression of the death receptors TRAIL-R1 and TRAIL-R2 at the cell surface, as determined by flow cytometry, whereas the two decoy receptors TRAIL-R3 and TRAIL-R4 can be detected only in permeabilized cells. Clinically relevant concentrations of cisplatin and doxorubicin sensitize the most resistant colon cancer cell lines to TRAIL-induced cell death without modifying the expression nor the localization of TRAIL receptors in these cells. TRAIL induces the activation of procaspase-8 and triggers caspase-dependent apoptosis of colon cancer cells. Cytotoxic drugs lower the signaling threshold required for TRAIL-induced procaspase-8 activation. In turn, caspase-8 cleaves Bid, a BH3 domain-containing proapoptotic molecule of the Bcl-2 family, and activates effector caspases. Together, these data indicate that chemotherapeutic drugs sensitize colon tumor cells to TRAIL-mediated caspase-8 activation and apoptosis.
