Knock-Out of the Neural Death Effector Domain Protein PEA-15 Demonstrates That Its Expression Protects Astrocytes from TNFα-Induced Apoptosis

Abstract: Apoptosis is a very general phenomenon, but only a few reports concern astrocytes. Indeed, astrocytes express receptors for tumor necrosis factor (TNF) alpha, a cytokine demonstrated on many cells and tissues to mediate apoptosis after recruitment of adaptor proteins containing a death effector domain (DED). PEA-15 is a DED-containing protein prominently expressed in the CNS and particularly abundant in astrocytes. This led us to investigate if PEA-15 expression could be involved in astrocytic protection again… Show more

“…This dual effect of Akt has to be correlated to contradictory effects of PEA-15. Indeed, PEA-15 is a strong inhibitor of death receptor-dependent apoptosis (Condorelli et al, 1999;Estelles et al, 1999;Kitsberg et al, 1999) but is associated with decreased cell proliferation (Formstecher et al, 2001;Gaumont-Leclerc et al, 2004). Furthermore, a recent study showed that sustained level of PEA-15 participated in Akt-dependent chemoresistance in human breast cancer cells (Stassi et al, 2005).…”

“…PEA-15 is a small protein abundantly present in brain astrocytes (Araujo et al, 1993) but also widely expressed in other human tissues (Danziger et al, 1995;Estelles et al, 1996;Ramos et al, 1998). PEA-15 regulates multiple cellular functions (Renault et al, 2003), including Ras suppression of integrin activation, and protection against Fas-and tumor necrosis factor ␣-induced apoptosis (Condorelli et al, 1999;Estelles et al, 1999;Kitsberg et al, 1999). Besides, we have already demonstrated that PEA-15 binds to ERK1/2 and prevents their nuclear translocation, which results in blockade of ERK-dependent transcription and cell proliferation in response to serum (Formstecher et al, 2001).…”

“…21,22 Decreased levels of PEA-15 protein have been associated with astrocyte protection against TNF-induced apoptosis. 23 In addition to these differentially regulated proteins that have been linked to apoptosis and oxidative stress and are accompanied by morphological correlates, [8][9][10] a dysregulation of proteins associated with cell growth and energy metabolism suggests that these biological processes are also affected by an exposure to high oxygen levels during the brain growth spurt period (Table 1; Figure 2b). …”

“…In addition, PEA15 exerts a wide anti-apoptotic action. It binds Fas-associated death domain (FADD) and caspase-8, thereby protecting against cytokine-induced apoptosis [9][10][11]. PEA15 also binds to Omi/HtrA2 to inhibit apoptosis triggered by stress and physical agents [12].…”
