Intracellular Storage and Evoked Release of Acetylcholine from Postnatal Rat Basal Forebrain Cholinergic Neurons in Culture with Nerve Growth Factor

Cholinergic neurons from the septum area, the vertical limb of the diagonal band of Broca, and the nucleus basalis of Meynert of postnatal 13-day-old rats were cultured with or without nerve growth factor (NGF) conditions. Total choline acetyltransferase (ChAT) activities, acetylcholine (ACh) contents, and survival numbers of cholinergic neurons in culture from each of three distinct regions were increased by NGF treatment, but little difference was found in cellular ChAT activities and ACh contents obtained in cultures with or without NGF. The result shows that NGF promotes the survival of cholinergic neurons from 13-day-old rats. Furthermore, the release of ACh from cultured neurons was investigated. The cells cultured with NGF showed a larger increase of the high K+-evoked ACh release than those cultured without NGF. However, NGF had no effect on spontaneous release. This suggests that NGF could regenerate and sustain the stimulation-evoked release mechanisms of ACh in cultured cholinergic neurons from postnatal rats.

Increase of Choline Acetyltransferase by Colchicine in Primary Cell Cultures of Spinal Cord

Abstract: Colchicine (5–10 μ M ) increased choline ace-tyltransferase (ChAT) activity 5–10-fold and suppressed acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and glutamate decarboxylase (GAD) activities to 30% and 50%, respectively, of the levels of control cells in mouse spinal cord cells cultured for several days. The synthesis of radiolaheled acetylcholine (ACh) from [¹⁴C]choline was also enhanced 4.6-fold, although the uptake of [¹⁴C]choline into cells was decreased to 80% of control level. Neither the incorporation of [³H]Ieucine into protein nor the total amount of protein was increased by colchicine. Vinblastine also increased ChAT activity while cytochalasin B was not effective. Immunochemical titration study revealed that the increase of ChAT activity by colchicine was due to the accumulation of ChAT molecules. Co-culture of spinalcord cells with skeletal muscle markedly stimulated ChAT activity, and the addition of colchicine to the co- cultures showed greater than additive effect. These observations indicate that colchicine increases ChAT molecules in a specific manner, that the stimulatory effect of colchicine on ChAT activity is possibly mediated via the interaction with microtubules, and that the increase of ChAT activity is based on a mechanism different from that of co-cultures with skeletal muscle cells.     

Acetylcholine inhibits cell cycle progression in rat Schwann cells by activation of the M2 receptor subtype

Cultures of Schwann cells from neonatal rat sciatic nerves were treated with acetylcholine agonists and the effects on cell proliferation evaluated. (3)[H]-thymidine incorporation shows that acetylcholine (ACh) receptor agonists inhibit cell proliferation, and FACS analysis demonstrates cell-cycle arrest and accumulation of cells in the G1 phase. The use of arecaidine, a selective agonist of muscarinic M2 receptors reveals that this effect depends mainly on M2 receptor activation. The arecaidine dependent-block in G1 is reversible because removal of arecaidine from the culture medium induces progression to the S phase. The block of the G1-S transition is also characterized by modulation of the expression of several cell-cycle markers. Moreover, treatment with ACh receptor agonist causes both a decrease in the PCNA protein levels in Schwann cell nuclei and an increase in p27 and p53 proteins. Finally, immuno-electron microscopy demonstrates that M2 receptors are expressed by Schwann cells in vivo. These results indicate that ACh, by modulating Schwann cell proliferation through M2 receptor activation, might contribute to their progression to a more differentiated phenotype.     

Comparative evaluation of the antiproliferative effect of cyclosporin A and γ-interferon on normal and HPV-transformed keratinocytes by cell counting, MTT assay and tritiated thymidine incorporation

We compared three techniques, the MTT tetrazolium assay, cell counting, and tritiated thymidine ([3H]TdR) incorporation assay to measure the antiproliferative effect of cyclosporin A (CsA) and interferon-γ (IFN-γ) on normal human skin keratinocyte cultures (NHK) used at the second passage and human papillomavirus type 16- and 18-transformed cell lines (EK16 and EK18) exposed continuously to the drugs for 3 days. The three techniques showed that under CsA (0.5 and 8 μ/ml) and IFN-γ (5 and 160 U/ml) treatments the cells remained viable and that the growth of keratinocytes was inhibited. For IFN-γ, the MTT colorimetric assay consistently underestimated its growth inhibitory activity as compared to cell counting or [3H]TdR incorporation, whatever the cells used. For high doses of CsA, MTT and cell counting gave similar percentages of inhibitory activity whatever the cells; MTT underestimated this activity as compared to [3H]TdR incorporation only in NHK and EK18 cells, whereas similar results were obtained with EK16 cells. In conclusion, this investigation shows that MTT sensitivity differed with the drug and also according to the keratinocyte cultures. The MTT test is clearly not appropriate for study of IFN-γ treatment whatever the keratinocytes used. Such discrepancies indicate that the MTT test should be done with care on cultures to measure the effects of drugs on cell growth; the growth inhibition should be carefully considered and it would be best if two different methods were used.
