The role, origin, and mode of action of the lipid messenger ceramide in programmed cell death and its linkage to receptor-associated apoptotic signal proteins is still unresolved. We show here in Kym-1 rhabdomyosarcoma cells that tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-induced apoptosis is preceded by a multiphasic increase in intracellular ceramide levels. Distinct enzymes were found to contribute to three waves of ceramide, neutral sphingomyelinase, ceramide synthase, and acid sphingomyelinase, with peak activities at 1-2, 40, and around 200 min, respectively, the latter coinciding with progression to irreversible damage. In parallel with ceramide generation, TNF-mediated inhibition of glucosylceramide and sphingomyelin (SM) synthase prevents the immediate metabolization of this lipid mediator. In the presence of benzyloxycarbonyl-Val-Ala-Asp-fluoromethyl ketone (Z-VAD-fmk) or benzyloxycarbonyl-Asp-Glu-Val-Asp-chloromethyl ketone (Z-DEVD-cmk), a broad spectrum and a caspase 3-selective inhibitor, respectively, glucosylceramide and SM synthase activity remains unaffected by TNF, and intracellular ceramide accumulation is not observed. Our results show that several lipid enzymes contribute to generation of ceramide in response to TNF and identify glucosylceramide and SM synthase as important regulators of the kinetics and magnitude of intracellular ceramide accumulation. As glucosylceramide and SM synthase activity is caspase-sensitive, our data suggest a novel functional link between caspase(s) and ceramide during apoptotic processes.
