Catecholamines increase nerve growth factor mRNA content in both mouse astroglial cells and fibroblast cells 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Previous studies have shown that catecholamines increase the nerve growth factor (NGF) content in medium conditioned by mouse L-M fibroblast cells and mouse astroglial cells. In this study, the NGF mRNA levels in these cells were measured by Northern blot analysis. In astroglial cells treated with epinephrine (EN), the cellular NGF mRNA level increased prior to accumulation of NGF in the culture medium. 3-Hydroxytyramine (DA) and norepinephrine (NE) also increased the cellular NGF mRNA content. An increased level of NGF mRNA elicited by EN was also observed in mouse L-M cells. These results indicate that catecholamines enhance NGF synthesis of L-M fibroblast cells and astroglial cells by increasing the cellular content of NGF mRNA. The present results also indicate that the effects of catecholamines are not mediated by adrenergic receptors. 相似文献

Abstract: Interferon (IFN)-β and IFN-γ inhibited the DNA synthesis and nerve growth factor (NGF) synthesis in growing astrocytes cultured from neonatal mouse brain, but they did not affect the NGF synthesis in quiescent astrocytes. IFN-β and IFN-γ also inhibited the enhanced DNA synthesis and NGF synthesis in growing astrocytes after the administration of basic fibroblast growth factor. These results indicated that NGF synthesis in astrocytes is regulated by IFNs associated with cell growth. The mechanism of IFN action on NGF synthesis/secretion is unknown, but the results that their effects last long after IFN removal from the cultures present the possibility that IFNs destabilize NGF mRNA. 相似文献

Astroglial cells and various types of non-neuronal cells in the peripheral nervous system, such as epithelial, Schwann and fibroblast cells synthesize and secrete nerve growth factor (NGF) in culture. NGFmRNA contents are well-correlated with the density of axonal projection from NGF-sensitive neurons, suggesting that NGF synthesis in vivo tissues is regulated by neuronal environments. We investigated neuronal regulations of NGF synthesis using cultured mouse astroglial cells and rat pheochromocytoma PC12 cells. It was found that astroglial NGF synthesis was enhanced by the addition of catecholamine into the cultured medium or the co-culture with differentiated PC12 cells. These results suggest that NGF synthesis in the in vivo tissues is increased by the release of catecholamine as neurotransmitters and/or the contact of NGF-producing cells with differentiated cell bodies and neurites of NGF-sensitive neurons. 相似文献

Insulin-like growth factors decrease catecholamine content in PC12 rat pheochromocytoma cells. 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Insulin-like growth factors (IGFs) stimulate proliferation and differentiation of PC12 rat pheochromocytoma cells and modulate catecholamine release in bovine adrenal medullary cells. Dexamethasone increases catecholamine synthesis in PC12 cells. We therefore studied the effects of IGFs and dexamethasone on catecholamine content in PC12 cells. Dopamine (DA) and norepinephrine (NE) content of PC12 cells were measured after incubation for 72 h with IGFs (100 ng/ml) and/or dexamethasone (500 nM). IGF-I (100 ng/ml) and IGF-II (100 ng/ml) decreased DA and NE content to approximately 35% and approximately 25% of control, respectively. [Leu27]IGF-II, which binds to the IGF-I receptor with markedly decreased affinity, did not reduce catecholamine levels, indicating that the effect is likely to be mediated by the IGF-I receptor. Dexamethasone (500 nM) increased levels of DA and NE to 173 +/- 20% and 331 +/- 48% of controls, respectively. Coincubation with IGFs did not significantly affect the stimulation of DA by dexamethasone, but abolished the rise in NE. Levels of tyrosine hydroxylase mRNA, protein and activity were increased following incubation with dexamethasone, but were unchanged by IGFs. These results indicate that IGFs decrease catecholamine content in PC12 cells via the IGF-I receptor. Complex regulation involving multiple synthetic and/or degradative steps is implicated in this process. 相似文献

Ketamine is an anesthetic and a popular abusive drug. As an anesthetic, effects of ketamine on glutamate and GABA transmission have been well documented but little is known about its long-term effects on the dopamine system. In the present study, the effects of ketamine on dopamine were studied in vitro and in vivo. In pheochromocytoma (PC 12) cells and NGF differentiated-PC 12 cells, ketamine decreased the cell viability while increasing dopamine (DA) concentrations in a dose-related manner. However, ketamine did not affect the expression of genes involved in DA synthesis. In the long-term (3 months) ketamine treated mice, significant increases of DA contents were found in the midbrain. Increased DA concentrations were further supported by up-regulation of tyrosine hydroxylase (TH), the rate limiting enzyme in catecholamine synthesis. Activation of midbrain dopaminergic neurons could be related to ketamine modulated cortical-subcortical glutamate connections. Using western blotting, significant increases in BDNF protein levels were found in the midbrain, suggesting that perhaps BDNF pathways in the cortical-subcortical connections might contribute to the long-term ketamine induced TH upregulation. These data suggest that long-term ketamine abuse caused a delayed and persistent upregulation of subcortical DA systems, which may contribute to the altered mental status in ketamine abusers. 相似文献

L-M cells, a mouse fibroblast cell line, synthesized and secreted a nerve growth factor (NGF). The neurite outgrowth stimulatory activity, immunoreactivity, molecular weight, and isoelectric point of L-M cell NGF were identical to those of beta-NGF of the mouse submaxillary gland. Treatment of the cells with either norepinephrine or epinephrine in the range of 0.05-0.2 mM for 24 h resulted in a 3-20-fold increase in NGF content in the medium of the L-M cells. The NGF of epinephrine-treated cell was identical to that of control cell. The stimulation of the increase in NGF content was observed after a 4-h lag time. The rate of incorporation of [3H]leucine into trichloroacetic acid-insoluble materials was essentially unchanged during the treatment. These results suggested that norepinephrine and epinephrine stimulated the de novo synthesis and secretion of NGF protein. Evidence is also presented to indicate that the effects of the drugs are due to the catechol part of the molecule and not mediated by adrenergic receptors. 相似文献

Retinoic acid (RA), the acid form of vitamin A, is shown to enhance the synthesis of nerve growth factor (NGF) in cultures of mouse L cells. Maximal stimulation was observed in cells growing in a serum-free medium supplemented with 10(-6)M RA during 48 h. The drug increased both the level of NGF mRNA and the amount of mature NGF protein secreted by the cells. RA was previously reported to increase the number of NGF receptors on some neuroblastoma cells (Haskell et al., 1987 Cell and Tiss. Res., 247, 67-73). It seems, therefore, that RA may influence nerve cell differentiation by promoting both the synthesis of the neurotrophic factor and the responsiveness of target cells. 相似文献

Using our enzyme immunoassay system developed for recombinant hNGF, we examined the synthesis and secretion of human NGF (hNGF) by human fibroblast (WS-1) cells. The amount of the factor secreted by WS-1 cells increased linearly and a significant amount of NGF was detected in the conditioned medium of WS-1 cultures. WS-1 NGF showed properties identical to those of recombinant human NGF in immunoreactivity and molecular weight. An increase in cell density or the withdrawal of serum from the culture medium caused a drastic decrease in the rate of NGF secretion. These results suggest that WS-1 cells are able to synthesize and secrete hNGF in culture and that the synthesis/secretion is regulated in a growth phase-dependent manner. 相似文献

To investigate effects of gangliosides on nerve growth factor (NGF) synthesis/secretion by Schwann cells, we obtained Schwann cells from dorsal sensory ganglia of one-day old Wistar rats and cultured them with various concentrations of a mixed ganglioside comprising GM1, GD1a, GD1b, and GT1b. NGF synthesis was evaluated by the measurement of NGF concentration in the conditioned medium using an enzyme immunoassay. In the continuous presence of 10(-3) M gangliosides, the NGF concentration in the medium showed a four fold increase on the 4th day, and it then decreased by the 8th day. The present results indicate that gangliosides promote the production/synthesis of NGF by Schwann cells. 相似文献

Abstract— Phenylethanolamine N -methyltransferase (PNMT) and adrenaline (A) have been studied in organ cultures of neonatal rat sympathetic ganglia. Organ culture for 2 days without added nerve growth factor (NGF) caused a fall in noradrenaline (NA) and PNMT contents but there was no change in dopamine (DA) or A contents compared to controls. However, in the presence of dexamethasone, there was a marked increase in both PNMT activity and A content, but no change in NA or DA content. Addition of NGF to cultures stimulated with dexamethasone caused no further significant change in PNMT activity or A content, whereas both NA and DA were increased. Prolonged culture without NGF, in the presence of dexamethasone resulted in reductions in both NA and DA content, but the high levels of PNMT activity and A content were sustained. The results are consistent with the hypothesis that both PNMT and A are not contained in the noradrenergic cell bodies but are located chiefly within the small intensely fluorescent cells in sympathetic ganglia. 相似文献

The effects of fibroblast growth factor (FGF) and nerve growth factor (NGF) on DNA synthesis and insulin secretion were studied in 4-5-day cultures of the isolated neonatal rat islets. FGF (0.1 ng/ml) stimulated significantly the incorporation of 3H-thymidine into DNA of the isolated islets, but failed to change either insulin content in the islets or the rate of insulin secretion. NGF (0.1-1000 ng/ml) did not affect the above parameters. The responses of the islets of Langerhans to increasing concentrations of glucose and isobutylmethylxanthine were not modified after prolonged exposure to NGF. The role of FGF and NGF in the regulation of proliferation and secretory process in pancreatic islet cells is discussed. 相似文献

The sympathetic nervous system plays a central role in lipolysis and the production of leptin in white adipose tissue (WAT). In this study, we have examined whether nerve growth factor (NGF), a target-derived neurotropin that is a key signal in the development and survival of sympathetic neurons, is expressed and secreted by white adipocytes. NGF mRNA was detected by RT-PCR in the major WAT depots of mice (epididymal, perirenal, omental, mesenteric, subcutaneous) and in human fat (subcutaneous, omental). In mouse WAT, NGF expression was observed in mature adipocytes and in stromal vascular cells. NGF expression was also evident in 3T3-L1 cells before and after differentiation into adipocytes. NGF protein, measured by ELISA, was secreted from 3T3-L1 cells, release being higher before differentiation. Addition of the sympathetic agonists norepinephrine, isoprenaline, or BRL-37344 (beta(3)-agonist) led to falls in NGF gene expression and secretion by 3T3-L1 adipocytes, as did IL-6 and the PPARgamma agonist rosiglitazone. A substantial decrease in NGF expression and secretion occurred with dexamethasone. In contrast, LPS increased NGF mRNA levels and NGF secretion. A major increase in NGF mRNA level (9-fold) and NGF secretion (相似文献

Regulation by Interleukin-1 of Nerve Growth Factor Secretion and Nerve Growth Factor mRNA Expression in Rat Primary Astroglial Cultures 总被引:10,自引:4,他引:6
Primary cultures of neonatal rat cortical astrocytes contain low cellular levels (about 2 pg/mg of protein) of nerve growth factor (NGF), but secrete significant amounts of NGF into the culture medium (about 540 pg of NGF/mg of cell protein/38-h incubation). Incubation of astrocytes with interleukin-1 (IL-1) increased the cellular content of NGF and the amount secreted by about threefold. In comparison, cerebellar astrocytes secreted significant amounts of NGF, and the secretion was also stimulated by IL-1. The stimulatory action of IL-1 on astrocytes prepared from cortex was dose- and time-dependent. Concentrations of IL-1 causing half-maximal and maximal stimulation of NGF secretion were 1 and 10 U/ml, respectively). Maximal NGF secretion induced by IL-1 (10 U/ml) was seen following 38 h of incubation. The basal secretion of NGF was reduced by about 50% under Ca2(+)-free conditions; however, the percent stimulation of NGF secretion by IL-1 was the same in the absence or presence of Ca2+. The stimulatory action of IL-1 was specific, because other glial growth factors and cytokines were almost ineffective in stimulating NGF secretion from cortical astroglial cells. IL-1 treatment also increased cellular NGF mRNA content twofold. The results indicate that IL-1 specifically triggers a cascade of events, independent of cell growth, which regulate NGF mRNA content and NGF secretion by astrocytes. 相似文献

The effects of nerve growth factor (NGF) and ciliary neuronotrophic factor (CNTF) on catecholamine content and in vitro activities of tyrosine hydroxylase (TH) and phenylethanolamine N-methyltransferase (PNMT) were studied in adrenal chromaffin cells cultured from 8-day-old rats. Both NGF and CNTF enhanced chromaffin cell survival and partially prevented losses of adrenaline during the 4-day culture period in a dose-dependent manner. CNTF was more potent, although cellular levels of adrenaline and noradrenaline were not maintained. NGF did not add to the effect of CNTF. The effect of CNTF on catecholamine storage was not accompanied by changes in the activities of TH and PNMT. In contrast, NGF induced TH but not PNMT activity. These data indicate differences between the mechanisms by which NGF and CNTF affect adrenal chromaffin cells. 相似文献

Catecholamine content and in vitro activities of tyrosine hydroxylase (TH) and noradrenaline N-methyltransferase (NMT) were measured in cultures of isolated adrenal medullary cells from newborn and young postnatal rats to study the effects of the differentiation factors glucocorticoids and nerve growth factor (NGF). During the 4-day culture period the cellular catecholamine (CA) content and TH activity remained stable, whereas NMT activity dropped to about half of the initial level. In cells from 2- and 10-day-old rats 10 microM dexamethasone specifically prevented this loss in NMT activity. Furthermore, this glucocorticoid treatment increased, in a dose-dependent manner, the total CA content by 50-100% over control levels without changes in the adrenaline (A) proportion or TH activity. In contrast, NGF did not affect NMT activities at all. In cells from 10-day-old rats 100 ng/ml NFG elevated TH activity and total CA content to about 160% of controls and did not change the proportion of A. This increase in total CA content was linear with the NGF dose and required greater than 5 ng/ml NGF. In chromaffin cells from 2-day-old rats 100 ng/ml NGF affected neither TH activity nor the total content, whereas it significantly reduced the proportion of A by about 25%. 相似文献

The potential role of nitric oxide (NO) donors and peroxynitrites on both basal catecholamine (CA) secretion and modulation of calcium levels has been investigated in primary cultures of bovine chromaffin cells. NO donors did not modulate catecholamine secretion, while peroxynitrites induced a time dose-dependent increase in basal CA secretion. Two facts may explain the lack of these compounds on basal CA secretion. NO donors induce, on the one hand, an increase in intracellular calcium levels by depletion of internal IP3-stores from endoplasmic reticulum. On the other hand, a small calcium influx through N-type voltage-dependent calcium channels (VDCC), which seem not to be coupled to exocytosis of adrenaline and noradrenaline in chromaffin cells. Both effects, calcium-mobilisation from internal stores and calcium entry through N-type VDCC are mediated by cGMP synthesis. In contrast, peroxynitrites induce an increase in basal CA secretion by both a decrease of intracellular catecholamine content and a toxic effect on cellular membrane. All these results, taken together, could explain contradictory results in the literature on the role of NO on basal catecholamine secretion and on modulation of intracellular calcium in chromaffin cells. 相似文献

In rat brain cortex, haloperidol initiates the long-term potentiation of K(+)-induced Ca(2+)-dependent noradrenaline (NA) and dopamine (DA) secretion in vitro and in vivo. In both cases, the long-term potentiation is caused by the long-term increase in catecholamine content in the NA and DA terminals, as it has been shown in cortical tangential slices. Acute intraperitoneal haloperidol injection (2.5 mg/kg) evokes catalepsy and increases the content of NA and DA in the brain structures with localization of catecholamine receptors on terminals. This increase appears to be caused, predominantly, by modification of the terminal DA receptors, since only a trend to catecholamine increase is observed in the brain structures with a mixed type of NA and DA receptor localization (on somata and terminals). It is suggested that the long-term and diffuse action of haloperidol after its acute administration consists in the anxiogenic reaction and consolidation of catalepsy without an additional procedure of training and in the absence of unconditioned stimulus. 相似文献

Systemic administration of 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine (MPTP) caused a rapid and long-lasting reduction of both 3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine (dopamine, DA) and noradrenaline (NA) in mouse brain, as observed histo- and neurochemically. The depleting effects were more pronounced after repeated MPTP administration and the most marked reductions were observed after 2 X 50 mg MPTP/kg s.c., when DA in striatum and NA in frontal cortex were reduced by greater than 90% 1 week after MPTP. Mice with such catecholamine depletions were markedly sedated and almost completely immobilized. The behavioural syndrome after MPTP resembled that seen after reserpine, a monoamine-depleting drug. MPTP also caused a long-lasting reduction of catecholamine uptake in striatal DA and cortical NA nerve terminals and reduced tyrosine hydroxylase activity in these regions. There was no evidence that MPTP caused any marked DA and NA cell body death. MPTP given acutely transiently elevated serotonin levels. The results are compatible with a neurotoxic action of MPTP on both DA and NA nerve terminals. The nigro-striatal DA and the locus coeruleus NA neurone systems appeared to be most susceptible. Synthesis and utilization of residual striatal DA and cortical NA were increased, as often observed in partially denervated monoamine-innervated brain regions. Both DA and NA showed a gradual recovery, which took months to become complete and may have been related to a regrowth of catecholamine nerve terminals. 相似文献
