Abstract: In contrast to the well-established anti-apoptotic effect of Bcl-2 protein, we have recently demonstrated that Bcl-2 overexpression by vaccinia virus causes apoptosis in BSC-40 cells, while it prevents apoptosis in HeLa G cells. Given the key role of mitochondria in the process of apoptosis, we focused on effects of Bcl-2 expression on mitochondrial energetics of these two cell lines. In this study we present data indicating that BSC-40 cells derive their ATP mainly from oxidative phosphorylation whereas HeLa G cells from glycolysis. More importantly, we show that in both cell lines, Bcl-2 inhibits mitochondrial respiration and causes a decrease of the ATP/ADP ratio. However, it appears that BSC-40 cells cannot sustain this decrease and die, while HeLa G cells survive, being adapted to the low ratio of ATP/ADP maintained by glycolysis. Based on this observation, we propose that the outcome of Bcl-2 expression is determined by the type of cellular ATP synthesis, namely that Bcl-2 causes apoptosis in cells relying on oxidative phosphorylation. • Keywords: Bcl-2, Apoptosis, ATP, Mitochondrial respiration
