Little is known about the role of Rho proteins in
apoptosis produced by stimuli evolved specifically to produce
apoptosis, such as granzymes from cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs) and
Fas. Here we demonstrate that all three Rho family members are involved in CTL- and Fas-induced killing. Dominant-negative mutants of each Rho
family member and Clostridium difficile toxin B, an
inhibitor of all family members, strongly inhibited the susceptibility
of cells to CTL- and Fas-induced apoptosis. Fas-induced caspase-3 activation was inhibited by C. difficile toxin. Activated
mutants of each GTPase increased susceptibility to apoptosis, and
activation of Cdc42 increased within 5 min of Fas stimulation. In
contrast, during the time required for CTL and Fas killing, no
apoptosis was produced by dominant-negative or activated mutants or by
C. difficile toxin alone. Inhibition of actin
polymerization using latrunculin A reduced the ability of
constitutively active GTPase mutants to stimulate apoptosis and blocked
Fas-induced activation of caspase-3. Furthermore, the ability of Rac to
enhance apoptosis was decreased by point mutations reported to block
Rac induction of actin polymerization. Rho family proteins may regulate
apoptosis through their effects on the actin cytoskeleton.
