In order to explore the molecular mechanism of the induction of apoptosis by p14ARF, a human melanoma cell model overexpressing p14ARF was constructed. Present study indicated that in the cells overex-pressing p14ARF, p53 was accumulated in nucleus while it dispersed in cytosol in the control cells. Irradiated with g-ray, overexpressing p14ARF promoted the apoptosis of A375 cells, triggered Smac release from mitochondria to cytosol, and increased the expression of p53, Bax, Caspase-3, Caspase-9, p21cip1 and p27kip1. However, the protein level of Bcl-2 and phospho-ERK was down-regulated. These results suggested a possible mechanism of p14ARF in promotion of apoptosis.展开更多
