20307652 Chaudhuri L, Sarsour EH, Kalen AL, Aykin-Burns N, Spitz DR, Goswami PC: Polychlorinated biphenyl induced ROS signaling delays the entry of quiescent human breast epithelial cells into the proliferative cycle. Free Radic Biol Med. 2010 Mar 19.
Polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) are environmental chemical contaminants that can produce reactive oxygen species (ROS) by autoxidation of dihydroxy-PCBs and redox-cycling. We investigate the hypothesis that PCB induced perturbations in ROS signaling regulate the entry of quiescent cells into the proliferative cycle. Quiescent MCF-10A human breast epithelial cells were incubated with 0-3 micromolar of 2-(4-chlorophenyl) benzo-1,4-quinone (4-Cl-BQ), 2, 2', 4, 4', 5, 5'-hexachlorobiphenyl (PCB 153), and Aroclor 1254 for 4days. Cells were replated at a lower density and analyzed for cell cycle phase distributions, ROS levels, MnSOD expression, and cyclin D1 protein levels. Quiescent cells incubated with 4-Cl-BQ showed the maximal delay in entering S phase. This delay was associated with a decrease in MnSOD activity, protein and mRNA levels, and an increase in cellular ROS levels. Results from the mRNA turnover assay showed that the 4-Cl-BQ treatment selectively enhanced the degradation of the 4.2kb MnSOD transcript, while the half-life of the 1.5kb transcript did not change. Accumulation of cyclin D1 protein levels in replated cells was suppressed in cells treated with 4-Cl-BQ. Pretreatment of quiescent cells with polyethylene glycol-conjugated superoxide dismutase and catalase suppressed 4-Cl-BQ induced increase in ROS levels, which was consistent with an increase in cyclin D1 accumulation, and entry into S phase. These results showed 4-Cl-BQ induced perturbations in ROS signaling inhibit the entry of quiescent cells into S phase.
