The effects of inhibition of glycosylation on nerve growth factor (NGF) binding and neurite outgrowth response of PC12 cells have been examined. Exposure to tunicamycin (1-10 micrograms/ml) for 24-36 hr eliminates the rapidly dissociating component of NGF binding and decreases the proportion of PC12 cells capable of elaborating neurites in a dose-dependent manner. These decreased cellular responses are probably due to an underglycosylation of the NGF receptor, since the effects of tunicamycin are correlated with a decrease in 3H-fucose incorporation rather than a general decline in cellular metabolism as measured by viability and protein synthesis. These results suggest that carbohydrate side chains are important for the function and/or orientation of the NGF receptor in PC12 cells and that the rapidly dissociating component of NGF binding may be associated with a minimum concentration of functional receptors per cell required for the full biologic response. 相似文献

Previous studies have demonstrated that the divalent cation manganese (Mn) causes PC12 cells to form neurites in the absence of NGF. Since divalent cations modulate the binding affinity and specificity of integrins, and integrin function affects neurite outgrowth, we tested the hypothesis that Mn induces neurite outgrowth through an integrin-dependent signaling pathway. Our studies support this hypothesis. Function-blocking antisera specific for beta(1) integrins block the neurite-promoting activity of Mn by 90-95%. Bioassays and biochemical studies with antisera specific for the alpha(v), alpha(5), or alpha(8) integrin subunit suggest that the alpha(v)beta(1) heterodimer is one of the principal beta(1) integrins mediating the response of PC12 cells to Mn. This is corroborated by studies in which Mn failed to induce neurite outgrowth in a clone of PC12 cells that does not express alpha(v) at levels detectable by immunoprecipitation or immunocytochemistry. SDS-PAGE analysis of biotinylated surface proteins immunoprecipitated from Mn-responsive PC12 cells, as well as confocal laser microscopy of PC12 immunostained for surface alpha(v) indicate that Mn increases the surface expression of alpha(v) integrins. This increase appears to be due in part to synthesis of alpha(v) since specific inhibitors of RNA and protein synthesis block the neurite-promoting activity of Mn. These data indicate that Mn induces neurite outgrowth in PC12 cells by upregulating alpha(v) integrins, suggesting that Mn potentially represents an additional mechanism for regulating the rate and direction of neurite outgrowth during development and regeneration. 相似文献

Guanosine at 30 and 300 microM elicited the de novo extension of neurites from PC12 cells. With saturating concentrations of NGF, guanosine acted in a synergistic manner to enhance neuritogenesis. Adenosine alone also stimulated neurite outgrowth, but did not enhance NGF-induced neuritogenesis. 5'-N-ethylcarboxamidoadenosine (NECA), an adenosine analog and A1/A2 receptor agonist, also alone had neuritogenic effects. It enhanced NGF-induced neuritic outgrowth but not to the same extent as guanosine. However, when NECA was added together with guanosine in the presence of NGF, these compounds elicited a greatly enhanced neuritogenic response. This suggested that the mechanisms through which NECA modulates the neuritogenic effects may be different from those of guanosine and NGF. 相似文献

We investigated the role of the p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathway in heat-shock-induced neurite outgrowth of PC12 mutant cells in which nerve growth factor (NGF)-induced neurite outgrowth is impaired. When cultures of the PC12 mutant (PC12m3) cells were exposed to heat stress at 44 degrees C for 10 min, activity of p38 MAPK increased and neurite outgrowth was greatly enhanced. The neurite extension was inhibited by the p38 MAPK inhibitor BS203580. Longer heat treatment of PC12m3 cells provoked cell death, which was enhanced by SB203580. These findings suggest that heat-induced activation of p38 MAPK is responsible for the neurite outgrowth and survival of PC12m3 cells. 相似文献

Previous studies have demonstrated that the divalent cation manganese (Mn) causes PC12 cells to form neurites in the absence of NGF. Since divalent cations modulate the binding affinity and specificity of integrins, and integrin function affects neurite outgrowth, we tested the hypothesis that Mn induces neurite outgrowth through an integrin-dependent signaling pathway. Our studies support this hypothesis. Function-blocking antisera specific for β1 integrins block the neurite-promoting activity of Mn by 90–95%. Bioassays and biochemical studies with antisera specific for the αv, α5, or α8 integrin subunit suggest that the αvβ1 heterodimer is one of the principal β1 integrins mediating the response of PC12 cells to Mn. This is corroborated by studies in which Mn failed to induce neurite outgrowth in a clone of PC12 cells that does not express αv at levels detectable by immunoprecipitation or immunocytochemistry. SDS–PAGE analysis of biotinylated surface proteins immunoprecipitated from Mn-responsive PC12 cells, as well as confocal laser microscopy of PC12 immunostained for surface αv indicate that Mn increases the surface expression of αv integrins. This increase appears to be due in part to synthesis of αv since specific inhibitors of RNA and protein synthesis block the neurite-promoting activity of Mn. These data indicate that Mn induces neurite outgrowth in PC12 cells by upregulating αv integrins, suggesting that Mn potentially represents an additional mechanism for regulating the rate and direction of neurite outgrowth during development and regeneration. 相似文献

Epithelial fatty acid-binding protein (E-FABP) is up-regulated in rat dorsal root ganglia after sciatic nerve crush and in differentiating neurons during development. The present study investigates the role of E-FABP during nerve growth factor (NGF)-mediated neurite outgrowth in PC12 cells. Undifferentiated PC12 cells express low levels of E-FABP, while NGF triggers a 6- and 8-fold induction of E-FABP mRNA and protein, respectively. Up-regulation of E-FABP mRNA occurs as early as 24 h after NGF treatment and remains highly expressed over the course of several days, corresponding to NGF-mediated neurite outgrowth. Withdrawal of NGF leads to down-regulation of E-FABP mRNA and retraction of neurites. Immunofluorescence microscopy reveals E-FABP immunoreactivity in the perinuclear cytoplasm, neurites and growth cones of NGF-differentiated cells. To examine the role of E-FABP during neurite outgrowth, PC12 cells were transfected with a constitutive antisense E-FABP vector to create the E-FABP-deficient line PC12-AS. By morphometric analysis, PC12-AS cells treated for 2, 4, and 7 days with NGF exhibited significantly decreased neurite expression relative to control (mock-transfected) cells. Taken together, these data indicate that E-FABP is important in normal NGF-mediated neurite outgrowth in PC12 cells, a finding that is consistent with a potential role in axonal development and regeneration. 相似文献

Repeated, intermittent treatment with amphetamine (AMPH) leads to long-term neurobiological adaptations in rat brain including an increased number and branching of dendritic spines. This effect depends upon several different cell types in the intact brain. Here we demonstrate that repeated, intermittent AMPH treatment induces neurite outgrowth in cultured PC12 cells without the requirement for integrated synaptic pathways. PC12 cells were treated with 1 micro M AMPH for 5 min a day, for 5 days. After 10 days of withdrawal, there was an increase in the percentage of cells with neurites ( approximately 30%) and the length of neurites as well as an increase in the level of GAP-43 and neurofilament-M. Neurite outgrowth was enhanced as withdrawal time was increased. Neurite outgrowth was much greater following repeated, intermittent treatment with AMPH compared to continuous or single treatment with AMPH. Pretreatment with cocaine, a monoamine transporter blocker, inhibited the AMPH-mediated increase in neurite outgrowth. Neither NGF antibody nor DA receptor antagonists blocked AMPH-induced neurite outgrowth, demonstrating that AMPH-induced neurite outgrowth is not dependent on endogenous NGF release or DA receptors. Thus we have demonstrated that repeated, intermittent treatment with AMPH has a neurotrophic effect in PC12 cells. The effect requires the action of AMPH on the norepinephrine transporter, and shares characteristics in its development with other forms of sensitization but does not require an intact neuroanatomy. 相似文献

GPR12, an orphan G protein-coupled receptor, constitutively activates the Gs signaling pathway and further increases intracellular cyclic AMP. GPR12 overexpression has been reported to promote neurite extension in neurons or transform neuro2a neuroblastoma cells into neuron-like cells. However, the possible effects and mechanisms of GPR12 in the differentiation of PC12 cells are still unknown. The present study shows that GPR12 overexpression induced PC12 cells differentiation into neuron-like cells with enlarged cell sizes and neuritogenesis possibly via activation of Erk1/2 signaling and significantly increased the expression of several neurite outgrowth-related genes, including Bcl-xL, Bcl-2 and synaptophysin. These findings indicate that GPR12 may play a role in neurite outgrowth during PC12 cell differentiation. 相似文献

Estrogen (E2) has direct in vivo and in vitro effects, such as inducing neurite outgrowth, on neurons. We investigated the morphological changes and intracellular signaling pathway induced by E2 in neuroblastoma (SH-SY5Y) cells. The effect of medroxyprogesterone acetate (MPA) or progesterone (P4) on the E2-induced neurite outgrowth was also examined using SH-SY5Y cells. Neurite outgrowth was induced by E2 in association with the phosphorylation of Akt, and these effects of E2 were abolished by MPA but not by P4. Progesterone receptor antagonist RU486 blocked the inhibitory effects of MPA. Estrogen receptor antagonist ICI 182,780 and phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase inhibitor LY294002 inhibited the E2-induced neurite outgrowth. Because the Rho family of small GTPases has been shown to be involved in the regulation of neurite outgrowth, we examined the cross-talk among Rac1, Cdc42 and RhoA in the E2-induced neurite outgrowth. E2 immediately increased the Rac1 and Cdc42 activity and decreased the RhoA activity. E2-induced neurite outgrowth was attenuated in cells expressing dominant-negative mutants for Rac1 or Cdc42. These results suggest that regulation of Rho family GTPase activity by E2 is important for the neurite outgrowth in neuroblastoma cells, and that MPA may have an antagonistic effect against E2. 相似文献

Methylmercury decreases NGF-induced TrkA autophosphorylation and neurite outgrowth in PC12 cells 总被引:7,自引:0,他引:7
Neurotrophin signaling through Trk receptors is important for differentiation and survival in the developing nervous system. The present study examined the effects of CH(3)Hg on (125)I-nerve growth factor (NGF) binding to the TrkA receptor, NGF-induced activation of the TrkA receptor, and neurite outgrowth in an in vitro model of differentiation using PC12 cells. Whole-cell binding assays using (125)I-NGF revealed a single binding site with a K(d) of approximately 1 nM. Methylmercury (CH(3)Hg) at 30 nM (EC(50) for neurite outgrowth inhibition) did not affect NGF binding to TrkA. TrkA autophosphorylation was measured by immunoblotting with a phospho-specific antibody. TrkA autophosphorylation peaked between 2.5 and 5 min of exposure and then decreased but was still detectable at 60 min. Concurrent exposure to CH(3)Hg and NGF for 2.5 min resulted in a concentration-dependent decrease in TrkA autophosphorylation, which was significant at 100 nM CH(3)Hg. To determine whether the observed inhibition of TrkA was sufficient to alter cell differentiation, NGF-stimulated neurite outgrowth was examined in PC12 cells after exposure to 30 nM CH(3)Hg, a concentration that inhibited TrkA autophosphorylation by approximately 50%. For comparison, a separate group of PC12 cells were exposed to a concentration of the selective Trk inhibitor K252a (30 nM), which had been shown to produce significant inhibition of TrkA autophosphorylation. Twenty-four hour exposure to either CH(3)Hg or K252a reduced neurite outgrowth to a similar degree. Our results suggest that CH(3)Hg may inhibit differentiation of PC12 cells by interfering with NGF-stimulated TrkA autophosphorylation. 相似文献

Notch signaling inhibits PC12 cell neurite outgrowth via RBP-J-dependent and -independent mechanisms
The Notch signaling pathway has been implicated in the control of neurite extension, although the mechanisms are unknown. In this report, we studied the role of RBP-J/CBF-1 activation, the primary mediator of Notch signaling, in Notch-mediated regulation of neurite outgrowth in PC12 cells. Expression of constitutively active Notch proteins decreased neurite length and number after NGF treatment. In contrast, an inactive Notch protein had no effect on neurite extension. A dominant negative RBP-J construct prevented the reduction of neurite outgrowth by Notch. Conversely, an activated form of RBP-J decreased neurite length but failed to reduce neurite number. In summary, Notch activation inhibited PC12 cell neurite outgrowth by both RBP-J-dependent and -independent pathways. 相似文献

Six per cent of rat pheochromocytoma (PC12) cells extended neurites (processes greater than one cell diameter in length) in the presence of 300 μM extracellular GTP or 300 μM guanosine for 48 hr, compared to only 2.5% of cells in control cultures. In the presence of 40 ng/ml of 2.5S NGF, about 20–35% of PC12 cells had neurites after 48 hr, and the addition of 300 μM guanosine or GTP together with NGF synergistically increased the proportion of cells with neurites to 40–65%. GTP and guanosine also increased the average number of branches per neurite, from 0.6 in NGF-treated cultures to 1.2 (guanosine) or 1.5 (GTP). Neurites formed after exposure to NGF alone had axonal characteristics as determined by immunocytochemistry with antibody, SMI-31, against axonal-specific polyphosphorylated neurofilament epitopes. Neurites generated with the addition of both guanosine or GTP had the same characteristics.GTP probably did not exert its effects via the P2X or P2Y purinoceptors because the adenine nucleotides ATP, ATPγS, ADPβS, and ADP, which are all agonists of these receptors, inhibited rather than enhanced, NGF-induced neurite outgrowth. UTP also enhanced the proportion of cells with neurites, although not to the same degree as did GTP. This may indicate activity through a P2U-like nucleotide receptor. However, the response profile obtained, GTP > UTP ? ATP, does not fit the profile of any known P2Y, P2X or P2U receptor. The poorly hydrolyzable GTP analogues, GTPγS and GDPβs were also unable to enhance the proportion of cells with neurites. This implied that GTP may produce its effects through a GTP-specific ectoenzyme or kinase. This idea was supported by results showing that another poorly hydrolyzable analogue, GMP-PCP, competitively inhibited the effects of GTP on neurite outgrowth. GTP did not exert its effects after hydrolysis to guanosine since the metabolic intermediates GDP and GMP were also ineffective in enhancing the proportion of cells with neurites. Moreover, the effects of GTP and guanosine were mutually additive, implying that these two purines utilized different signal transduction mechanisms.The effects of guanosine were not affected by the nucleoside uptake inhibitors nitrobenzylthioinosine (NBTI) and dipyridamole, indicating that a transport mechanism was not involved. Guanosine also did not activate the purinergic P1 receptors, because the A2 receptor antagonists, 1, 3-dipropyl-7-methylxanthine (DPMX) or CGS15943, and the At receptor antagonist, 1, 3-dipropyl-8-(2-amino-4-chloro)xanthine (PACPX) did not inhibit its reaction. Therefore guanosine enhanced neurite outgrowth by a signal transduction mechanism that does not include the activation of the Pt purinoceptors.The enhancement of the neuritogenic effects of NGF by GTP and guanosine may have physiological implications in sprouting and functional recovery after neuronal injury in the CNS, due to the high levels of nucleosides and nucleotides released from dead or injured cells. 相似文献

It has been shown that sodium butyrate (NaBu) does not elicit neurite outgrowth of PC12, one of the most widely used cell lines as a model of neuronal differentiation. In this study, the effects of NaBu on nerve growth factor (NGF)- and cholera toxin-induced neurite outgrowth in PC12 cells were examined. NaBu dose-dependently enhanced neurite formation induced by both agents. The maximum responses obtained at 0.5 mM NaBu were nearly twice those of the inducers alone. Propionate and valerate were also effective, but acetate and caproate were ineffective. Among the butyrate analogs with a moiety of three to five carbon atoms tested, isobutyrate, isovalerate, vinylacetate and 3-chloropropionate enhanced neurite outgrowth promoted by both inducers. However, neither alpha-, beta-, and gamma-aminobutyrates nor alpha-, beta-, and gamma-hydroxybutyrates were effective. All of the effective short-chain fatty acids and their analogs increased the level of histone acetylation, while ineffective ones did not. Furthermore, Helminthosporium carbonum toxin (HC toxin), a structurally dissimilar inhibitor of histone deacetylase, mimicked the effect of butyrate. These results suggest that NaBu enhances neurite outgrowth induced by NGF and cholera toxin in PC12 cells through a mechanism involving an increase in the level of histone acetylation. 相似文献

Mitogen-activated protein kinase mediates purinergic-enhanced nerve growth factor-induced neurite outgrowth in PC12 cells 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
In 1999, we reported new observations that several compounds, including ATP, enhance neurite expression in PC12 cells when coapplied with nerve growth factor (NGF). Because purinergic and NGF signaling have several potential interfaces in PC12 cells, a series of experiments was conducted to elucidate the signal mediators contributing to the enhancement. Activities of selected kinases were measured and Western blots evaluated mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) active and nonactive isoforms in lysates of the treated PC12 cells. In terms of purinergic potency, ATP and beta,gamma-methylene ATP elicited the greatest neurite-enhancing effect, whereas adenosine and alpha,beta-methylene ATP elicited the smallest. The effectiveness of a nonhydrolyzable analog such as beta,gamma-methylene ATP indicates that a nonmetabolic process is responsible. In response to ATP, NGF, or NGF + ATP, MAPK activity (measured by 32P incorporation) was maximal within 2 hr and remained statistically elevated over control levels throughout the 24 hr monitored. At maximal 32P incorporation, MAPK activity in response to ATP, NGF, and NGF + ATP was two-, four-, and sixfold higher, respectively, than control values; the observed increase was qualitatively confirmed using Western blots. Short-term inhibition experiments with protein kinase C and MAPK indicated that MAPK transduces the enhancing signal. We conclude from these experiments that ATP coapplied with NGF increases PC12 neurite expression by elevation of MAPK activity, likely by P2 receptor activation, and suggest that combination therapies with NGF and its enhancing adjunct compounds may be plausible for certain degenerative neurological disorders. 相似文献

We previously isolated a nerve growth factor (NGF)-dependent neurite outgrowth promoting substance MC14 (sargaquinoic acid) from a marine brown alga, Sargassum macrocarpum. In the present study, the NGF-potentiating activity of MC14 to neural differentiation of PC12D cells was investigated in detail. The treatment of cells with 3 microg/ml MC14 in the presence of 1.25-100 ng/ml NGF markedly enhanced the proportion of neurite-bearing cells compared with the NGF-only controls. In addition, MC14 significantly elevated the NGF-induced specific acetylcholinesterase (AchE) activity in PC12D cells, suggesting that MC14 could morphologically and biochemically promote the differentiation of PC12D cells. The mechanism of action of MC14 was further investigated by pharmacological inhibition of several intracellular signaling molecules. Results indicated that the neurite outgrowth promoting activity of MC14 was almost completely blocked by 10 microM PD98059, suggesting that a TrkA-dependent MAP kinases-mediated signaling pathway may play a crucial role in modulating the effect of MC14. Besides, the MC14-enhanced neurite outgrowth was substantially suppressed by the pretreatment with 10 ng/ml protein kinase A (PKA) inhibitor, demonstrating that the adenylate cyclase-PKA signaling cascade was also involved in the action of MC14. In contrast, a PKC inhibitor chelerythrine chloride did not inhibit the neurite outgrowth promoting activity of MC14. Altogether, these results demonstrate that MC14 enhances the neurite outgrowth by cooperating at least two separated signaling pathways, a TrkA-MAP kinases pathway and an adenylate cyclase-PKA pathway, in PC12D cells. 相似文献

The molecular mechanisms that underlie the axonal damage that accompanies CNS inflammation are largely unknown. Here, we investigate the effects of immune cells on neuronal viability and axonal growth and show that conditioned media from myeloid lineage cells inhibit neurite outgrowth without causing apoptosis. Treatment with monocyte conditioned medium enhances myosin light chain phosphorylation in neurons and the neurite outgrowth inhibitory effect of myeloid lineage cells can be attenuated with the myosin II inhibitor blebbistatin. Our results suggest that in the context of CNS inflammation myeloid cells may limit axonal repair in the CNS via a myosin II-dependent mechanism. 相似文献

Nogo-A, a member of the reticulon family, is one of the most important myelin-associated inhibitors for axonal growth, regeneration, and plasticity in the central nervous system. RhoA has been targeted pharmacologically to promote neurite outgrowth and functional recovery in the brain and spinal cord. However, the underlying mechanism of the inhibition of neurite outgrowth by Nogo-A has not yet been fully defined. Protein kinase B (PKB, also known as Akt) is a protein serine/threonine kinase that plays a key role in intracellular signaling and cellular homeostasis. This study reports the role of PKB signaling on Nogo-A-treated PC12 neuronal cells. An inhibitory fragment of Nogo-A (Nogo-66) activated RhoA and reduced the phosphorylation of PKB at Ser473 in a time-dependent manner. In contrast, pretreatment with Y27632, a specific inhibitor of Rho-A, resulted in an increase of the phosphorylation of PKB. Nogo-66 also inhibited the neurite outgrowth of PC12 cells, whereas pretreatment with LY294002, a specific inhibitor of PKB, ameliorated the neurite outgrowth. These data suggest that PKB is involved in the inhibition of neurite outgrowth by Nogo-A in PC12 cells. 相似文献

Rat alpha-1-macroglobulin (alpha(1)M) and alpha-2-macroglobulin (alpha(2)M) are murine homologs of human alpha(2)M, and rat alpha(2)M is generally known as an acute-phase protein. Monoamine-activated forms of human alpha(2)M have been shown to inhibit various neuronal functions, but the effect of rat alpha(1)M and acute-phase alpha(2)M on neurons is largely unknown. In this report, rat serotonin-activated alpha(2)M (5HT-alpha(2)M) has been demonstrated to inhibit nerve growth factor (NGF)-promoted neurite extension in pheochromocytoma PC12 cells, and we investigated its possible mechanism of action including its effect on NGF-promoted signal transduction and gene expression in these cells. Especially in the absence of NGF, 5HT-alpha(2)M was found to bind to TrkA (the high-affinity receptor for NGF) much better than normal alpha(2)M (N-alpha(2)M). 5HT-alpha(2)M dose-dependently inhibited NGF-promoted autophosphorylation of TrkA, and decreased the expression of two immediate-early genes (NGFI-A and c-jun) and two delayed-response genes (SCG10 and transin) which are associated with neurite outgrowth in PC12 cells. The unmodified N-alpha(2)M, on the other hand, exhibited very little or no inhibitory effects on neurite extension, Trk phosphorylation, or expression of these genes. The results of this study taken together suggest that monoamine-activated acute-phase rat alpha(2)M appears to inhibit neurite outgrowth in PC12 cells possibly via its direct binding to TrkA and subsequent blocking of TrkA-mediated signal transduction and gene expression. 相似文献
