摘要：

Apoptosis was induced in THP.1 cells, a human monocytic tumour cell line, by diverse stimuli including cyclo-heximide, thapsigargin, etoposide and staurosporine. Induction of apoptosis by all these stimuli, except etoposide, was enhanced in the presence of the trypsin-like protease inhibitor, N alpha-tosyl-L-lysinyl chloromethyl ketone (TLCK), Induction of apoptosis, assessed by morphological, flow cytometric and biochemical criteria, including proteolysis of poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase and cleavage of DNA to large kilobasepair fragments, was completely abrogated when cells were pretreated with an ICE-like protease inhibitor, Z-Val-Ala-Asp . fluoromethylketone. This suggested that an ICE homologue was a common mediator of apoptosis in THP.1 cells.
