The Benzophenanthridine Alkaloid Fagaronine Induces Erythroleukemic Cell Differentiation by Gene of GATA-1 gene by 3.2-fold. A mutation within the GATA-1 bind-ing sites strongly decreased the promoter activation induced by Fagaronine, a benzophenanthridine alkaloid from Fagara zan- FAG.

In this study we showed that fagaronine induces a significant hemoglobinization of the human erythro-leukemic cell line K562. This hemoglobin synthesis was accom- panied by a strong increase of erythroid mRNA expression such Fagaronine ´ K562 cell differentiation ´ leukemia ´ erythroid gene as g- and a-globin, and PBGD, an enzyme of heme synthesis. In expression ´ GATA-1 transcription factor addition, the Epo-R transcripts were also stimulated indicatingthat cells are engaged in a maturation process. Both transcription factors GATA-1 and NF-E2, which play an important role in the regulation of genes involved in the erythroid differentiation, were also transcriptionally up-regulated. To elucidate the possi- ble role of GATA-1 in the FAG-induced differentiation of K562 cells, we transfected reporter constructs containing regulatory GAPDH: glyceraldehydes 3-phosphate dehydrogenase regions of erythroid genes encompassing GATA-1 binding sites.
After 48 hours of treatment, FAG stimulated the EPO-R and g-glo-bin promoters by 2- to 3-fold and the promoter/enhancer region the normal regulatory pathways controlling cell proliferationand differentiation.

As previously described [6], an average of 300cells was scored for benzidine-positivity and the results are Since ACLA was also reported to intercalate DNA and to inhibit topoisomerase I activity [16], we wondered whether the differ-entiating activity of FAG is triggered by similar molecular events related to transcriptional mechanisms.

Proteins were separated on a 10% gel by SDS-PAGE and blotted onto PVDF membrane (Amer- sham). The membrane was blocked by a 2-h incubation in Tris- buffered saline containing 5% non-fat milk, 0.05% Tween 20. Im- munodetections were performed by incubating the membrane with the specific GATA-1 monoclonal antibody (Santa Cruz) and then with the secondary antisera, conjugated with horse radish peroxidase (HRP).

Transient transfection of K562 cells and analysis of reporter Reporter constructs were prepared by insertion of promoter and enhancer regions in restriction sites of pGL2-basic plasmids,respectively, upstream and downstream of the firefly luciferasegene as described previously [4]. K562 cells were transfected bythese reporter plasmids using the transferrinfection technique(Transferrinfection kit, Serva).

Cells were resuspended in 0.25 mM Tris-HCl (pH 7.5) and quitous transcripts remained constant after FAG treatment.

In contrast, GATA-1, we have transfected K562 cells with different plasmid these concentrations of FAG had a limited effect on cell viability, constructs containing either the promoter of EPO-R or g-globin as determined by trypan blue dye exclusion, and cell death did genes upstream to the firefly luciferase gene. These 2 promoter not exceed 5% at the optimal differentiating concentration regions contained GATA-1 consensus sequences. Then, we ana- lyzed the effect of FAG treatment (6 mM) for 24 or 48 hours ontothe reporter activity.

Results from one experiment are To determine whether the GATA binding sites contained in thesepromoter sequences played a role in the FAG-mediated gene ac-tivation, we also used a construct with the GATA-1 gene promo- ter/enhancer region, which included two inverted canonical GATA binding sites [4]. This construct was significantly activatedafter 48 hours of FAG treatment (3.2-fold activation, Fig. 5B). Inparallel, a construct containing mutated GATA-1 binding sites lo-cated in the enhancer region was also used. In that case, FAG in-duced transcription activation by 1.9-fold only. These results in-dicated that the GATA-1 binding sites were involved in the pro-moter regulation induced by FAG treatment and thus representa molecular basis to explain the FAG-induced transcriptionalstimulation of erythroid genes.

These results are in agreement with an erythroid maturationthat seems to occur at the transcriptional level. Indeed, resultsobtained with reporter constructs containing erythroid gene reg-ulatory regions showed that FAG caused an increased transcrip-tional activity of luciferase gene downstream of the g-globin,EPO-R and GATA-1 promoters. Constructs with GATA-1 gene en-hancer region mutated or not at the level of two GATA-1 bindingsites clearly showed that the binding of GATA-1 to its target se-quence was required to stimulate reporter gene. Although wecannot exclude that other factors are involved, it is interestingto note that GATA-1's implication in FAG transcriptional activa-tion was also described for the antitumor drug aclacinomycin [5].
All these data show for the first time that fagaronine exerts itsdifferentiating activity by a specific activation of regulatory re- gions which control the erythroid differentiation program of hu- man erythroleukemic cells. This process involves the participa-tion of erythroid transcription factors such as GATA-1. Fagaro-nine may represent a new family of natural products able to actby modulating the activity of genes important for proliferation,differentiation and apoptosis control.
