Fas ligand and TNF-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL) induce apoptosis in many different cell types. Jurkat T cells die rapidly by apoptosis after treatment with either ligand. We have previously shown that mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK)/extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) can act as a negative regulator of apoptosis mediated by the Fas receptor. In this study we examined whether MAPK/ERK can also act as a negative regulator of apoptosis induced by TRAIL. Activated Jurkat T cells were efficiently protected from TRAIL-induced apoptosis. The protection was shown to be MAPK/ERK dependent and independent of protein synthesis. MAPK/ERK suppressed TRAIL-induced apoptosis upstream of the mitochondrial amplification loop because mitochondrial depolarization and release of cytochrome c were inhibited. Furthermore, caspase-8-mediated relocalization and activation of Bid, a proapoptotic member of the Bcl family, was also inhibited by the MAPK/ERK signaling. The protection occurred at the level of the apoptotic initiator caspase-8, as the cleavage of caspase-8 was inhibited but the assembly of the death-inducing signaling complex was unaffected. Both TRAIL and Fas ligand have been suggested to regulate the clonal size and persistence of different T cell populations. Our previous results indicate that MAPK/ERK protects recently activated T cells from Fas receptor-mediated apoptosis during the initial phase of an immune response before the activation-induced cell death takes place. The results of this study show clearly that MAPK/ERK also participates in the inhibition of TRAIL-induced apoptosis after T cell activation.
