Overexpression of wild-type p53 in cancer cells by adenovirus-mediated p53 gene transfer can result in the induction of apoptosis. To identify the potential mediators of this p53-induced apoptosis, we examined apoptotic protein levels in human lung cancer cells after Adp53 gene transfer. We observed up-regulation of Bax and Bak protein levels 18-36 h after transduction with Adp53 in H1299, H358, and H322 lung cancer cells. Contrary to expected observations, no changes in Bcl-2 and Bcl-X(L) protein levels were observed. Morphological cell changes and terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated dUTP-biotin nick end labeling staining showed evidence of apoptosis in all cell lines 48 h after transduction with Adp53. These results indicate that the induction of apoptosis by adenovirus-mediated p53 transfer may be mediated by the induction of proapoptotic mechanisms rather than suppression of antiapoptotic mechanisms.
