Heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) catalyzes the rate limiting reaction of heme metabolism and plays critical roles in resistance to oxidative stress and other cellular functions. It is well known that HO-1 is induced in response to various stresses; however, the signaling pathways involved remain incompletely elucidated. Acrolein is an a,p-unsaturated aldehyde present in cigarette smoke and also a product of lipid peroxidation. In this investigation we studied HO-1 induction in response to acrolein and determined the signaling pathways involved in human bronchial epithelial cells (HBE1 cells). We demonstrated that acrolein significantly increased the HO-1 mRNA content and promoter activity. Acrolein-mediated HO-1 induction was significantly attenuated by pan-protein kinase C (PKC) inhibitors R0318220, staurosporine, and PKC-delta selective inhibitor rottlerin and PKC-delta small interfering RNA. The HO-1 induction was also decreased by phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) inhibitors LY294002 and wortmannin. No significant effects on HO-1 induction were observed with the pretreatment of mitogen-activated protein kinase pathway inhibitors PD98059 (ERK), SB203580 (p38MAPK) and JNKi, and conventional and atypical PKC inhibitors. Furthermore, Nrf2 silencing significantly attenuated the HO-1 induction by acrolein. Inhibition of PKC-delta significantly decreased acrolein-mediated Nrf2 nuclear translocation, though inhibition of PI3K had no effect. Taken together, our results indicate that acrolein up-regulates HO-1 expression through both PKC-delta and PI3K pathways in HBE1 cells; PKC-delta appears to regulate HO-1 induction via modulating Nrf2 nuclear translocation, while PI3K may work through targeting on downstream signaling molecules other than Nrf2.
