Abstract

Posttranslational modifications of histones have an integral function in the structural and functional organization of chromatin. Several changes in the modification state of histones could be observed after induction of apoptosis with topoisomerase inhibitors and other inducers. Most of these studies include the analysis of the state of phosphorylation of histones, and the results are to some extent controversial, depending on cell lines and agents used. In the present study we compared the kinetics of the dephosphorylation of H1 and H3 histones with apoptosis markers after treatment of leukemic cell lines with topoisomerase inhibitors. In parallel, we determined cell cycle parameters in detail. Dephosphorylation of both histone classes started within 1 h of induction, and no direct correlation with timing and intensity of the investigated apoptotic features could be observed. In contrast, we show that the effect of topoisomerase inhibitors on the state of H1 and H3 phosphorylation is not directly related to apoptosis, but reflects the changes in the cell cycle distribution of cells treated with these inducers. © 2005 Wiley‐Liss, Inc.
