Oxidative stress can cause significant cell death
by apoptosis. We performed studies in L-cells to explore whether prior
exposure to oxidative stress ("oxidative preconditioning") can
protect the cell against the apoptotic consequences of subsequent
oxidative insults and to establish the mediators in the preconditioning signaling cascade. Cells were preconditioned with three 5-min exposures
to H2O2, followed by 10-h recovery and
subsequent exposure to 600 µM
H2O2 for 10 h. A single 10-h exposure to
H2O2 induced substantial apoptotic cell death
(~90%), as determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, TUNEL
(terminal deoxyribonucleotide transferase-mediated dUTP nick end
labeling), and Annexin V methods, but apoptosis was largely prevented
in preconditioned cells. The degree of cytoprotection depended on
the strength of preconditioning or H2O2
concentration (20~600 µM). Transient increases in
mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK), p38, and JNK/SAPK
activities and sustained protein kinase B (Akt) activation,
accompanied by drastically reduced caspase 3 activity, were seen after
preconditioning. The expression levels of these kinases were unaltered.
Inhibitors of p38 (SB203580) and phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K,
LY294002) pathways abolished the protection provided by
preconditioning. We conclude that oxidative preconditioning protects
cells against apoptosis and that this effect involves MAPK and PI3K/Akt
pathways. This system may be important in regulating apoptotic cell
death in development and disease states.
