Anacardic acid induces mitochondrial-mediated apoptosis in the A549 human lung adenocarcinoma cells

Abstract: Anacardic acid (AA) is a constituent of the cashew nut shell and is known as an inhibitor of nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB). We investigated the cytotoxicity of AA on cancer cells and more experiments to reveal the cell death mechanism focused on A549 lung adenocarcinoma cells for our interest in lung cancer. To examine the molecular mechanism of cell death in AA treated A549 cells, we performed experiments such as transmission electron microscopy (TEM), western blot analysis, fluorescence-activated cell sorting (F… Show more

“…Among them, the PERK pathway enhances translation of mRNAs, including ATF4 (Armstrong et al 2010). In a previous study, anacardic acid (6-pentadecylsalicylic acid, AA), which induced apoptosis in pituitary adenoma and lung adenocarcinoma cells through ER stress, not only significantly increased the expression of GRP78, but also increased the expression of ATF4 in both HepG2 and U266 cells (Seong et al 2013(Seong et al , 2014. IRE1 is derived from the activation of IRE.…”

“…One explanation could be the improved intracellular delivery of the drug, as discussed earlier. However, the release rate seems too slow for this to be the only factor contributing to such an increase AA is a commonly acknowledged antineoplastic molecule that induces caspase-independent apoptosis 36 and inhibits the NF-κB pathway. 3 It is also an epigenetic agent that inhibits histone acetyltransferases (HATs) involved in the regulation of gene expression.…”

“…Furthermore, the mediator of the intrinsic pathway involved in the release of the PARP enzyme was investigated. PARP is involved in the release of mitochondrial proteins such as cytochrome c or apoptosis-inducing factor (AIF) and regulates its translocation to the cytoplasm (19). Kenalog-IR decreased AIF protein levels in the mitochondria fraction (Fig.…”
