Effect of glutathione reductase knockdown in response to UVB-induced oxidative stress in human lung adenocarcinoma.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Glutathione reductase (GR) plays a critical role in the maintenance of physiological redox status in cells. However, the comprehensive investigations of GR-modulated oxidative stress have not been reported.

Methods

In the present study, we cultured a human lung adenocarcinoma line CL1-0 and its GR-knockdown derivative CL1-0ΔGR to evaluate their differential responses to UVB-irradiation.

Results

We identified 18 proteins that showed significant changes under UVB-irradiation in CL1-0ΔGR cells rather than in CL1-0 cells. Several proteins involving protein folding, metabolism, protein biosynthesis and redox regulation showed significant changes in expression.

Conclusions

In summary, the current study used a comprehensive lung adenocarcinoma-based proteom
