We recently reported that a mild heat shock induces a long lasting stimulation of TRAIL-induced apoptosis of leukemic T-lymphocytes and myeloid cell lines, but not normal T-lymphocytes, which correlates with an enhanced ability of TRAIL to recognize its receptors. As shown here, this phenomenon could be inhibited by the xanthogenate agent D609, a sphingomyelin/ceramide pathway inhibitor. A caspase-dependent and D609-sensitive two-fold increase in ceramide level was elicited by heat shock plus TRAIL combined treatment. One day after heat shock, a similar increase in ceramide was induced by TRAIL. Sphingolipids/ceramides are known to regulate membrane integrity, and heat shock increases membrane fluidity. In this regard, the heat shock plus TRAIL combined treatment resulted in a D609-sensitive membrane fluidization which was far more intense than that induced by heat shock only. We also report that membrane fluidizers, that mimic the effect of heat shock, such benzyl alcohol and ethanol, potently stimulated TRAIL-induced apoptosis. As heat shock, these alcohols increased, in a D609-sensitive manner, membrane fluidity in the presence of TRAIL, the recognition of TRAIL death receptors, and ceramide levels. These results suggest that stress agents that trigger ceramide production and an overall increase in membrane fluidity are stimulators of TRAIL apoptosis.
