paclitaxel; p21 localization and phosphorylation
CKI p21 is a regulator of cellular responses to microtubule damage induced by drugs such as paclitaxel (PTX). It mediates the G1 4N arrest postactivation of the spindle assembly checkpoint and protects cancer cells against PTX-induced cytotoxicity. We demonstrated here that low doses of PTX that are unable to activate the spindle assembly checkpoint, upregulate p21 by a p53-dependent pathway and induce its translocation to the cytoplasm. This cytoplasmic accumulation of p21 resulted from an AKT-dependent p21 phosphorylation leading to an association of p21 with 14-3-3. Furthermore, the cytoplasmic p21 accumulation observed in PTX-treated cells was inhibited by LY 294002, a specific PI-3 kinase inhibitor or by the expression of a dominant-negative AKT mutant. However, the kinase activity of AKT was unchanged in PTX-treated cells, suggesting that low doses of PTX could regulate p21 phosphorylation via inhibition of its dephosphorylation. As a functional consequence, we found that cytoplasmic accumulation of the phosphorylated form of p21 prevents the inhibitory effect of p21, enabling these cells to escape to the p53-dependent GI/S and G2/M checkpoints.
