pubmed:abstractText |
The cross-talk between endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and mitochondria was investigated during apoptosis in a breast cancer cell line (MCF-7) in culture. The effect of camptothecin, an inducer of apoptosis and a specific inhibitor of topoisomerase I, was investigated by morphological, immunocytochemical and histochemical techniques for electron microscopy. Our ultrastructural morphological data demonstrate alterations in ER configuration and communication with neighbouring mitochondria early after stimulation by camptothecin. Immunoelectron studies have demonstrated that Bax and Bid translocate from cytoplasm to mitochondria where they initiate mitochondrial dysfunction and cytochrome c release. Bax and Bid were also localized in ER and nuclear envelope. Since ER and mitochondria function as intracellular Ca2+ storage, we hypothesize that Bax and Bid are involved in the emptying of ER Ca2+ pool, triggers secondary changes in mitochondrial Ca2+ levels that contribute to cytochrome c release and cell death.
