Anaplasma phagocytophilum infection induces apoptosis in HL-60 cells.
World Journal of Microbiology & Biotechnology 2011 November 2
Anaplasma phagocytophilum, the causative agent of human granulocytic anaplasmosis, is an obligate intra-cellular bacterium that survives in neutrophils by delaying apoptosis. The human promyelocytic leukemia cell line HL-60 has been the ultimate choice for culturing Anaplasma in vitro. In this study, we assessed the various events of drug-induced apoptosis in A. phagocytophilum-infected HL-60 cells. Anaplasma infection reduced the cell viability and increased the apoptosis in HL-60 cells and staurosporine or etoposide-induced apoptosis was further exacerbated with Anaplasma infection. Altogether our results suggest that A. phagocytophilum infection is proapoptotic in HL-60 cells unlike in neutrophils where it is antiapoptotic.
