NF-kB is a transcription factor that mediates antiapoptotic signals in several cancer cell lines. Here we have demonstrated that the cytotoxic drug, Etoposide, activates NF-kB in K562, a chronic myeloid leukemia blast crisis cell line. Treatment with the NF-kB inhibitors MG-132, Bay11-7082, and Resveratrol impedes Etoposide-induced NF-kB activation, rendering K562 sensitive to Etoposide-induced apoptosis. Stable expression of mutant form of IkB-alpha, which retains NF-kB inactive in the cytoplasm of cells, confirmed the data obtained with molecular inhibitors. Both inhibitors and stable expression of SR-IkB are associated with down-modulation of the antiapoptotic protein Bcl-xL, suggesting that the survival pathway activated by Etoposide involves NF-kB-mediated Bcl-xL expression.
