Mitochondrial membrane permeabilization is a critical step of lysosome-initiated apoptosis induced by hydroxychloroquine
Abstract
Hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) is a lysosomotropic amine with cytotoxic properties. Here, we show that HCQ induces signs of lysosomal membrane permeabilization (LMP), such as the decrease in the lysosomal pH gradient and the release of cathepsin B from the lysosomal lumen, followed by signs of apoptosis including caspase activation, phosphatidylserine exposure, and chromatin condensation with DNA loss. HCQ also induces mitochondrial membrane permeabilization (MMP), as indicated by the insertion of Bax into mitochondrial membranes, the conformational activation of Bax within mitochondria, the release of cytochrome c from mitochondria, and the loss of the mitochondrial transmembrane potential. To determine the molecular order among these events, we introduced inhibitors of LMP (bafilomycin A(1)), MMP (Bcl-X(L), wild-type Bcl-2, mitochondrion-targeted Bcl-2, or viral mitochondrial inhibitor of apoptosis from cytomegalovirus), and caspases (Z-VAD.fmk) into the system. Our data indicate that caspase-independent MMP is rate-limiting for LMP-mediated caspase activation. Mouse embryonic fibroblasts lacking the expression of both Bax and Bak are resistant against hydroxychloroquine-induced apoptosis. Such Bax(-/-) Bak(-/-) cells manifest normal LMP, yet fail to undergo MMP and subsequent cell death. The data reported herein indicate that LMP does not suffice to trigger caspase activation and that Bax/Bak-dependent MMP is a critical step of LMP-induced cell death.

“In other experimental settings, however, lysosomes are permeabilized before mitochondria [752, 760, 761], via a mechanism that optionally involves BAX recruitment to the lysosomal membrane followed by the activation of its pore-forming activity [762–765].”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
