NSAIDs cause severe gastrointestinal injury, in part by suppressing survivin, an inhibitor of apoptosis protein, both in cultured gastric epithelial cells and in human and rat gastric mucosa. The mechanism(s) of survivin down-regulation by NSAIDs is unclear. In this study, we examined whether NSAID treatment decreases survivin mRNA expression and/or enhances degradation of survivin protein via ubiquitin proteasome system in rat gastric mucosal, RGM-1 cells, and whether survivin overexpression prevents indomethacin-induced cell injury and apoptosis. Effects of indomethacin on survivin mRNA expression, survivin protein half-life and ubiquitination were examined in RGM-1 cells. Proteasome inhibitors were utilized to prevent indomethacin-induced survivin protein degradation in RGM-1 cells. The effects of stable overexpression of survivin on indomethacin-induced RGM-1 cell injury and apoptosis were examined. Results showed: (1) Indomethacin treatment did not alter survivin mRNA expression, but significantly reduced survivin protein half-life from 1.5h to approximately 1h and increased survivin ubiquitination. (2) Inhibition of ubiquitin proteasome prolonged survivin protein half-life to over 2h and inhibited indomethacin-induced survivin degradation. (3) Overexpression of survivin significantly reduced indomethacin-induced cell injury and apoptosis. In conclusion, indomethacin treatment enhances degradation of survivin via the ubiquitin proteasome machinery in RGM-1 cells, and maintenance of survivin levels is important for prevention of gastric epithelial cell injury and apoptosis.
