Apoptosis supercedes necrosis in mitochondrial DNA-depleted Jurkat cells by cleavage of receptor-interacting protein and inhibition of lysosomal cathepsin.

Abstract
In the present study, we used mitochondrial DNA-depleted Jurkat subclones (rho0 cells) to demonstrate that Fas agonistic Ab (CH-11), at the concentrations that evoke apoptotic death of the parental Jurkat cells, induced necrosis mainly through generation of excess reactive oxygen species, lysosomal rupture, and sequential activation of cathepsins B and D, and in minor part through activation of receptor-interacting protein (RIP). In the rho0 cells treated with CH-11, ATP supplementation converted necrosis into apoptosis by the formation of the apoptosome and subsequent activation of procaspase-3. In these ATP-supplemented rho0 cells (ATP-rho0), generation of excess ROS and lysosomal rupture were still seen, yet cathepsins B and D were inactivated and RIP was degraded. The conversion of necrosis to apoptosis, RIP degradation, and cathepsin inactivation in ATP- rho0 cells were blocked by caspase-3 inhibitors. Activities of cathepsins B and D in the lysate of necrotic rho0 cells were inhibited by the addition of apoptotic parental Jurkat cell lysate. Thus, apoptosis may supercede necrosis.
