We previously
reported that primary cultures of guinea pig gastric pit cells
expressed all of the phagocyte NADPH oxidase components (gp91-, p22-,
p67-, p47-, and p40-phox) and could spontaneously release
superoxide anion (O2
). We demonstrate here that pit
cells express a nonphagocyte-specific gp91-phox homolog
(Mox1) but not gp91-phox. Inclusion of catalase significantly inhibited [3H]thymidine uptake during the
initial 2 days of culture. Pit cells, matured on day 2,
slowly underwent spontaneous apoptosis. Scavenging O2
and related oxidants by superoxide dismutase plus catalase or N-acetyl cysteine (NAC) and inhibiting Mox1 oxidase by
diphenylene iodonium activated caspase 3-like proteases and markedly
enhanced chromatin condensation and DNA fragmentation. This accelerated apoptosis was completely blocked by a caspase inhibitor,
z-Val-Ala-Asp-CH2F. Mox1-derived reactive oxygen
intermediates constitutively activated nuclear factor-
B, and
inhibition of this activity by nuclear factor-
B decoy
oligodeoxynucleotide accelerated their spontaneous apoptosis. These
results suggest that O2
produced by the pit cell Mox1
oxidase may play a crucial role in the regulation of their
spontaneous apoptosis as well as cell proliferation.
