The disruption of microtubules by treating bovine aortic endothelial cells with 10(-7)-10(-5) M colchicine caused apoptosis, as evidenced by DNA laddering and TdT-mediated dUTP nick end labeling fluorescence staining. Colchicine treatment also induced a sustained activation of c-Jun NH2-terminal kinase (JNK) that lasted for greater than or equal to 12 h. The blockade of JNK activity by using the negative interfering mutant JNK(K-R) markedly decreased the apoptosis induced by colchicine. Exposure of bovine aortic endothelial cells to laminar shear stress (12 dyn/cm(2)) caused a transient (
