Introduction Metazoan cells are able to initiate a series of events that causes the activation of intracellular proteases and ultimately results in the destruction of the cell. There are two reasons for a cell to undergo apoptosis. How apoptosis transpires: caspase activation Activation of the family of proteins known as caspases cysteinyl, aspartate-specific proteases constitutes the means of execution of apoptosis.

Lamins Lamins are the major structural component proteins of the nuclear envelope. Translation initiation factors When apoptosis is induced, the rate of cellular protein synthesis is rapidly diminished and this occurs at the level of translation initiation. Cell signaling proteins Certain cell signaling proteins are cleaved by caspases and this may contribute to apoptosis. How apoptosis is initiated; mechanisms of induction of apoptosis What makes a cell decide to kill itself? Figure 1. Full size image.

Protection from apoptosis: the other side of the coin The life or death decision-making process responsible for apoptosis hangs in the balance of positive and negative influences.

Help from the outside: how extracellular cytokines protect cells from apoptosis As discussed above, the survival of a cell depends on a balance between positive and negative signals.

Several observations revealed that oxidative stress induces damage in both nuclear and mtDNA and cells lacking mtDNA exhibit a marked resistance to cell death Yoneda et al.

Attempts to determine whether loss of mtDNA and disturbance in respiratory chain function result in apoptosis in vivo were also undertaken Wang et al. Using embryos with homozygous disruption of the gene encoding the mitochondrial transcription factor Tfam, as well as tissue-specific Tfam knockout animals with severe respiratory chain deficiency in the heart, the authors showed massive apoptosis in both experimental systems.

These data provide in vivo evidence that respiratory chain deficiency predisposes cells to apoptosis. Interestingly, Tfam is essential not only for mitochondrial gene expression, but also for maintenance and repair of mtDNA. More detailed investigation revealed that binding of Tfam to cisplatin-modified DNA was significantly enhanced by p53, with which Tfam was found to interact physically Yoshida et al.

Thus, although the role of mtDNA in cell death is contentious, it is clear that its absence or impaired function can profoundly influence the rate of apoptosis. Mutations in the mtDNA leading to mitochondrial dysfunction have been reported in a variety of cancers. Might these mutations influence cellular responses to cancer therapy? Importantly, resistance to adriamycin, which induces ROS formation as well as acting as a topoisomerase II inhibitor, was not due to the lack of drug uptake, or to altered cell cycle responses.

Thus, mitochondrial function is a determinant of cellular sensitivity to important cancer therapeutic agents. The data reviewed above concerning the involvement of histones H1. Compared with native chromatin, apoptotic oligonucleosomal fragments contained less histone H1 Borisova et al. This histone modification increases the accessibility of chromatin to nucleases and probably promotes DNA fragmentation during apoptosis.

On the other hand, histone H1. Moreover, no modifications in H1. In certain experimental systems, induction of apoptosis was accompanied by histone H1 phosphorylation Lee et al. These data suggest that apoptotic cells could be entering premature, and therefore catastrophic, mitosis in response to DNA damage. Broadly speaking, similar data have been obtained for histone H3, which is phosphorylated during mitosis and premature chromosome condensation, but not during apoptosis.

Histone H2AX phosphorylation, as noted above, plays a role in DNA damage signalling, but has no known direct connection with the chromatin changes that accompany apoptosis. Perhaps the most clearcut case for direct involvement of histone phosphorylation in DDIA concerns mammalian histone H2B, which is phosphorylated at Ser14 in response to UV irradiation or treatment with the topoisomerase II inhibitor etoposide, which induces DNA strand breaks.

This phosphorylation is mediated by mammalian sterile twenty Mst1 kinase Cheung et al. This comprises elements of the DNA damage detection machinery, including proteins that also signal cell cycle checkpoint arrest, signal transducers including CHK2, p53 and E2F-1, as well as the downstream caspases and their regulators Figure 2. The setting of the rheostat is determined in part by the abundance and basal activities of these various components, in part by their upregulation during cell proliferation and in part by the in-built amplification loops that operate via Fas and the release of mitochondrial regulators of apoptosis.

Multiple independent routes have now been traced by which nuclear DNA damage can be signalled to the mitochondria. These encompass pdependent transcriptional activation, less well-characterized direct mitochondrial roles for p53, histone H1. A degree of coordination between DNA repair and cellular commitment to apoptosis may be achieved through the release of Ku70, conventionally considered to be a nuclear DNA repair protein, into the cytoplasm.

It is also apparent that damage to the mitochondrial genome, as well as nuclear DNA damage, has the capacity to influence the extent of subsequent apoptosis. Each of these events is potentially of crucial importance both in tumour development and in the response of cancer cells to therapies based on the induction of DNA damage. EMBO J. Cancer Res.

Laboratory Investigation Cancer Gene Therapy Environmental Science and Pollution Research It is well known that tumor cells can be resistant to chemotherapeutics.

With the assistance of nanoparticles, medical treatment can advance more smoothly. Polysaccharides, as major bioactive compounds, are reported to have anti-cancer properties. They have been able to induce cell death in a hepatoma cell lines Hep G2 [ 94 ]. Here, Nano-encapsulated in chitosan-silica or just silica, the nano-conjunction caused a more significant decrease in Hep G2 cell viability than mere polysaccharides alone and induced apoptosis like ROS generation, DNA fragmentation, caspase activation and cell sub-G1 phase arrest.

In the study of Li et al. There it significantly inhibited the growth of tumors as compared to free Dox treatment. It may be that the released Dox induced cancer cell apoptosis through interference with DNA repair and replication by DNA intercalation in highly proliferating cells.

In such a process normal cells may be spared [ 97 ]. ENPs are also explored as small interfering RNA siRNA carriers in the treatment of breast cancer [ 98 ], ovarian cancer [ 99 ], hepatocellular carcinoma [ ], and B-cell malignancies [ ] etc. The above examples show that ENP-dependent drug delivery systems prove to be a promising therapeutic system for the treatment of cancer.

Despite the promising drug delivery system provided by ENPs in cancer therapy, one has to consider the safety and efficiency of the delivery and targeting. To achieve selective treatment and to reduce toxicity, ENPs are usually endowed with tumor targeting abilities by binding to antibodies directed against highly expressed cancer cell surface receptors.

In the newly published literature of Palanca-Wessels et al. Plus, the effective targeting can be realized by designing smart nano-carriers that respond to certain changes in the bio-environment and release the encapsulated contents on demanded sites.

Gurka et al. It was found that the tumor specificity of MSN was improved with the addition of chitosan targeting acid PH and urokinase plasminogen activator UPA, targeting UPAR , ensuring drug release and accumulation preferentially at the pancreatic tumors compared to liver or kidney. Targeted as well as controlled drug delivery and release can also be realized with magnetoelectric nanoparticles MEN , which, with its load, can be controlled and placed at the intended site via application of an external magnetic field [ ].

ENPs, having great potential for application in cancer treatment, also arouse concerns about potential risks for human exposure. How to use ENPs wisely at minimum side effects is becoming an increasingly important focal area. Here we introduce several examples concerning ENP type, size and shape as well as surface modification.

Before application, the comparable cytotoxicities between many differing particles must be established by comparing their effects in different cell lines.

In one case six different fine- or nano- particles were investigated on the macrophage-like murine cell line RAW In another report, silver particles of nano- 20 nm and submicron- nm were compared with TiO 2 -NPs 21 nm in the human testicular embryonic carcinoma cell line Ntera2 and primary testicular cells from C57BL6 mice. The results showed that the silver particles exerted more of a cytotoxic effect than did the TiO 2 -NPs, causing apoptosis, necrosis and decreased proliferation in dose and time dependent manner [ ].

TiO 2 NPs seemed to be less toxic than other particles, though case by case analyses remain necessary. In general, the smaller the ENPs size, the more concerns there is for human exposure. This may be due to the effect of mass-specific surface area, leading to the smaller sized ENPs exerting a more toxic effect.

In this, CuO NPs were seen to exert the strongest effects. However, small particles do not necessarily lead to better uptake or enhanced toxicity. In a NT2 study, for example, primary testicular cells were treated with nano- 20 nm and submicron- nm Ag particles. Another study by Park reconfirmed that by investigating different cell fates induced by different sizes of TiO 2 nanotubes, in which cellular activities were enhanced by particles less than 30 nm while reduced by particles larger than 50 nm with a high extent of apoptosis [ ].

In addition to size, the shapes of ENPs are also directly correlated to their induced cytotoxicity. Two graphitic nanomaterials, graphene layers G and single-wall carbon nanotubes SWCNT , having similar chemical composition and crystalline structures, were presented with different shapes.

Here, G occurs in flat atomic sheets and nanotubes are tubular. In the concentration-dependent toxicity testing of these two ENPs on PC12 cells, results were dissimilar. G had a higher toxic effect at lower concentrations and SWCNT a more intense toxic effect at higher concentrations.

This indicates different toxic mechanisms related to shape [ ]. These different effects were assumed to be that the needle-like CNTs were more mobile and more easily able to penetrate the cell membrane and thereby caused strong interactions with various protein systems. The indication is that these two ENPs have different cellular target sites. In another case four types of hydroxyapatite nanoparticles nano-HAP with different nanocrystal morphologies short rod-like, long rod like, spherical and needle-shaped crystals and sizes , , and nm were compared for their effects upon primary cultured rat osteoblasts [ ].

These nano-HAPs induced mitochondrial and caspase dependent apoptosis in the osteoblasts, with needle-shaped and the spherical particles inducing the greater cellular injury than short rod-like and long rod-like particles.

It has been recognized that the specific surface area of ENPs can determine the activities of the materials. Particles with higher specific surface area tend to have greater activity and more easily attach to the cells and lead to toxicity.

This is in accordance with the above study in which the needle-shaped ENPs of different surface modifications have numerous technological and biomedical applications. They interact with biological structures and display distinct and specific impacts to the cell systems.

It was found that exposure to GOs led to mitochondrial dysfunction and increased the amount of HLF apoptotic cells, while values of the cell viability rates and DNA damage differed among the various modifications. This may be a result of different electronic charges on the surface of GOs after modification The electronic charge on the surface of the ENPs may play important roles in determining their toxicity to targeted cells. Similarly, Arvizo et al. Some modifications might be able to lighten the cytotoxic effects of ENPs.

These modifications were supposed to improve their solubility and biocompatibility and alter their cellular interaction pathways, resulting in an enhanced ability to penetrate biological membranes with relatively low cytotoxicity [ 89 ].

Carbon-based substances were considered to be less bio-reactive in biological systems and thus be critical for reducing the inherent reactivity of ENPs with biomolecules. In another case, nano-TiO 2 was coated with polyacrylate and the cytotoxicity on Chinese hamster lung fibroblast V79 cells was compared with nano-TiO 2 and micro-TiO 2.

Here, the cell viability decreased and induction of apoptosis was observed for the administration of all types of TiO 2 particles, but for polyacrylate-coated nano-TiO 2 , it was only detected in higher concentrations with no DNA damage detected [ ].

Nanoparticles offer a numerous application possibilities in the industrial sector. These include their use as fuel additives for catalysis, as sunscreen additives for UV protection, various applications in the textile industry and their use in biomedicine as drug targeting agents or drug carriers [ ].

In recent years directs ENP applications towards cancer therapy for inducing cancer cell apoptosis has been an increasing focus. Unfortunately such widely usage may also pose unwanted threat to human health. In addition, some aspects of surface modification may be able to reduce the bio-reactivity of ENPs, thus alleviating their toxicities in certain circumstances. This may provide a way to design even more effective particles of minimum undesired toxicity.
