A little guide for advanced search:

  • Tip 1. You can use quotes "" to search for an exact expression.
    Example: "cell division"
  • Tip 2. You can use + symbol to restrict results containing all words.
    Example: +cell +stem
  • Tip 3. You can use + and - symbols to force inclusion or exclusion of specific words.
    Example: +cell -stem
e.g. searching for members in projects tagged cancer

We have investigated how Bacillus anthracis lethal toxin (LT) triggers caspase-3 activation and the formation of thick actin cables in human endothelial cells. By DNA array analysis we show that LT has a major impact on the cell transcriptome and we identify key host genes involved in LT cytotoxic effects. Indeed, upregulation of TRAIL and downregulation of XIAP both participate in LT-induced caspase-3 activation. LT induces a downregulation of the immediate early gene and master regulator of transcription egr1. Importantly, its re-expression in LT-intoxicated cells blocks caspase-3 activation. In parallel, we found that the formation of actin cables induced by LT occurs in the absence of direct activation of RhoA/ROCK signalling. We show that knock-down of cortactin and rhophilin-2 under conditions of calponin-1 expression defines the minimal set of genes regulated by LT for actin cable formation. Together our data establish that the modulation of the cell transcriptome by LT plays a key role in triggering human endothelial cell toxicity.
