We have found that the gene expression of the ninth member of the fibroblast growth factor (FGF) family, FGF9 was induced during retinoic acid(RA)-induced neuronal differentiation of murine embryonal carcinoma P19 cells. We have reported here the nucleotide sequence of the mouse FGF9 cDNA. The murine cDNA showed 92.4% nucleotide sequence homology to the human FGF9 cDNA and 98.2% homology to that of rats. This mouse FGF9 cDNA encoded a polypeptide consisting of 208 amino acids with amino acid sequence identical to that of rats. Only one amino acid was replaced compared to the human homolog. The highly conserved sequence homology of FGF9 suggests its functional importance. FGF9 was originally isolated from a culture medium of a human glioma cell line as a growth-promoting factor for glial cells [5]. Upon induction of neuronal differentiation by forming cell aggregates with 10−6 M RA, the gene expression of FGF9 was increased biphasically during the first 96 hours when cells were aggregating and from 168 hours to 192 hours followed by plating onto a tissue culture dish as glia-like cells proliferated. Neither undifferentiated P19 cells nor the cells aggregated without RA remaining undifferentiated expressed FGF9. This indicates that RA regulates the gene expression of FGF9 that may play an important role in neuronal differentiation in both early and late developmental process. 相似文献

Dickkopf‐3 (Dkk‐3) and Dkkl‐1 (Soggy) are secreted proteins of poorly understood function that are highly expressed in subsets of neurons in the brain. To explore their potential roles during neuronal development, we examined their expression in Ntera‐2 (NT2) human embryonal carcinoma cells, which differentiate into neurons upon treatment with retinoic acid (RA). RA treatment increased the mRNA and protein levels of Dkk‐3 but not of Dkkl‐1. Ectopic expression of both Dkk‐3 and Dkkl‐1 induced apoptosis in NT2 cells. Gene silencing of Dkk‐3 did not affect NT2 cell growth or differentiation but altered their response to RA in suspension cultures. RA treatment of NT2 cells cultured in suspension resulted in morphological changes that led to cell attachment and flattening out of cell aggregates. Although there were no significant differences in the expression levels of cell adhesion molecules in control and Dkk‐3‐silenced cells, this morphological response was not observed in Dkk‐3‐silenced cells. These findings suggest that Dkk‐3 plays a role in the regulation of cell interactions during RA‐induced neuronal differentiation. © 2014 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Coordinated proliferation and differentiation of progenitor cells is the base for production of appropriate numbers of neurons and glia during neuronal development in order to establish normal brain functions. We have used murine embryonal carcinoma P19 cells as an in vitro model for early differentiation to study participation of nicotinic (nAChR) and muscarinic acetylcholine (mAChR) receptors in the proliferation of neural progenitor cells and their differentiation to neurons. We have previously shown that functional nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs) already expressed in embryonic cells mediate elevations in cytosolic free calcium concentration ([Ca2+]i) via calcium influx through nAChR channels whereas intracellular stores contribute to nAChR- and mAChR-mediated calcium fluxes in differentiated cells [Resende et al., Cell Calcium 43 (2008) 107-121]. In the present study, we have demonstrated that nicotine provoked inhibition of proliferation in embryonic cells as determined by BrdU labeling. However, in neural progenitor cells nicotine stimulated proliferation which was reversed in the presence of inhibitors of calcium mobilization from intracellular stores, indicating that liberation of intracellular calcium contributed to this proliferation induction. Muscarine induced proliferation stimulation in progenitor cells by activation of Galphaq/11-coupled M1, M3 and M5 receptors and intracellular calcium stores, whereas Galphai/o-protein coupled M2 receptor activity mediated neuronal differentiation. 相似文献

Pretreatment of cells with staurosporine, a protein kinase C (PKC) inhibitor, was found to potentiate the granulocytic differentiation induced by a brief (2 h) retinoic acid treatment. By cell cycle analysis, staurosporine was found to have little effect on the cell cycle. Retinoic acid was distributed equally in the nuclei (40%) and in the plasma membrane (40%) of staurosporine-pretreated cells while less than 20% of retinoic acid was found in the membrane of control non-staurosporine-pretreated cells during the retinoic acid-induced differentiation. These results indicate that the enhancing effect of staurosporine may be somehow associated with the localization of retinoic acid in the plasma membrane of the cell. -1This work is dedicated to Prof. Harris Busch (Baylor College of Medicine, Tex., USA) for his 33 wonderful years at Baylor and 50 years in medicine. 相似文献

Insulin-like growth factor binding protein-3 (IGFBP-3) has both IGF-dependent and -independent effects on cell growth, which are frequently growth-inhibitory. Interestingly, the development of a more aggressive phenotype in breast cancer cells (BCCs) correlates positively with elevated expression of IGFBP-3 and is often associated with all-trans-retinoic acid (atRA)-resistance. IGFBP-3 was previously demonstrated to interact directly with retinoid X receptor (RXR). In this study we have shown that IGFBP-5 also interacts with RXR and that both IGFBPs interact with retinoic acid receptor (RAR). To investigate whether the presence of IGFBP-3 regulates breast cancer cell responsiveness to atRA, we immuno-neutralized the IGFBP-3 expressed by the atRA-resistant Hs578T and MDA-MB-231 BCCs (which express IGFBP-3 constitutively) and showed that they become more sensitive to the growth-inhibitory effects of atRA. Similarly, in Hs578T cells expressing a reporter gene under the control of an RAR response element (RARE), depletion of IGFBP-3 resulted in the induction of reporter gene expression in response to atRA. In investigating possible mechanisms for IGFBP-3 regulation of atRA-sensitivity, we found that IGFBP-3 blocked the formation of RAR:RXR heterodimers and disrupted the ligand-inducible receptor complex. Thus, IGFBP-3 has the potential to reduce the RARE-mediated transactivation of target genes and modulate the atRA-response in BCCs. 相似文献

Phosphatidylinositol transfer protein (PI-TP) was studied in P19 embryonal carcinoma (EC) cells at different stages of retinoic acid (RA) induced differentiation. Western blot analysis indicated an increased expression of PI-TP (35 kDa) during differentiation. Western blots of isoelectric focusing gels showed that the 35 kDa band consisted of the PI-carrying form of PI-TP (pl 5.5) and of a novel, more acidic form of PI-TP (pl 5.4), levels of both of which increased during differentiation. These increased levels were not reflected in the in vitro PI-transfer activity of the cytosolic fraction nor in the mRNA levels as analyzed by northern blotting. By using indirect immunofluorescence it was shown that PI-TP is localized in the cytoplasm and associated with perinuclear Golgi structures and that this distribution is slightly affected during RA-induced differentiation. Immunoprecipitation of PI-TP from [32 P]Pi labeled cells demonstrated that the level of phosphorylation of PI-TP is high in undifferentiated P19 EC cells and low after 5 days of RA-induced differentiation. These results strongly suggest that changes in the levels of PI-TP are intimately connected with changes in the growth characteristics of P19 EC cells during RA-induced differentiation. It remains to be established to what extent this connection is governed by the recent finding that PI-TP is an essential cytosolic factor in stimulating phospholipase C activity. 相似文献

Apoptosis is thought to be involved in the maintenance of cellular homeostasis, as well as various pathological processes. However, little information is available about the regulation of apoptosis during the aggregation stage of P19 embryonal carcinoma (EC) cells. Here we report that aggregation-induced apoptosis is markedly attenuated by treatment with retinoic acid (RA). PTEN (phosphatase and tensin homolog deleted on chromosome 10) expression was down-regulated during the aggregation phase of P19 EC cells in the presence, but not in the absence, of RA. Suppression of PTEN expression during the aggregation was accompanied by increased phosphorylation of serine/threonine kinase Akt and glycogen synthase kinase-3beta (GSK-3beta). Our results suggest that RA attenuates the induction of apoptosis during the aggregation phase of P19 EC cells, probably by suppressing PTEN expression. 相似文献

The transient receptor potential vanilloid subtype 1 (TRPV1) is a Ca2+-permeable channel primarily expressed in dorsal root ganglion neurons. Besides its function in thermogenic nociception and neurogenic inflammation, TRPV1 is involved in cell migration, cytoskeleton re-organisation and in neuronal guidance. To explore the TRPV1 level and activity during conditions for neuronal maturation, TRPV1-expressing SHSY5Y neuroblastoma cells were differentiated into a neuronal phenotype using all-trans-retinoic acid (RA). We show that RA highly up-regulated the total and cell surface TRPV1 protein expression but the TRPV1 mRNA level was unaffected. The up-regulated receptors were localised to the cell bodies and the developed neurites. Furthermore, RA increased both the basal intracellular free Ca2+ concentration by 30% as well as the relative capsaicin-induced Ca2+ influx. The results show that TRPV1 protein expression increases during RA-induced differentiation in vitro, which generates an altered intracellular Ca2+ homeostasis. 相似文献

Retinoic acid decreases collagen production by hepatic stellate cells. This study investigated the effects of retinoic acid receptor beta (RARbeta) and retinoid X receptor alpha (RXRalpha) on the regulation of the alpha(2)(I) collagen promoter. Retinoic acid and the RARbeta and RXRalpha expression vectors suppressed the promoter in transfected stellate cells with maximal suppression obtained when combined. Mutation of the retinoic acid response element (RARE) at -879 to -874 (site 1) enhanced promoter activity and diminished but did not eliminate the suppression by RARbeta and RXRalpha. Mutation of another RARE site (site 2), at -930 to -911, resulted in low activity that was inhibited by retinoic acid. Mutation of the AP-2-binding site enhanced promoter activity that was inhibited by retinoic acid. This study shows that the suppressive effect of retinoic acid on the promoter is maximal with a combination of RARbeta and RXRalpha and occurs at more than one RARE site. The effect of retinoic acid is not mediated by AP-2. 相似文献

Marked change in microRNA expression during neuronal differentiation of human teratocarcinoma NTera2D1 and mouse embryonal carcinoma P19 cells 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small noncoding RNAs, with a length of 19-23 nucleotides, which appear to be involved in the regulation of gene expression by inhibiting the translation of messenger RNAs carrying partially or nearly complementary sequences to the miRNAs in their 3' untranslated regions. Expression analysis of miRNAs is necessary to understand their complex role in the regulation of gene expression during the development, differentiation and proliferation of cells. Here we report on the expression profile analysis of miRNAs in human teratocarcinoma NTere2D1, mouse embryonic carcinoma P19, mouse neuroblastoma Neuro2a and rat pheochromocytoma PC12D cells, which can be induced into differentiated cells with long neuritic processes, i.e., after cell differentiation, such that the resultant cells look similar to neuronal cells. The data presented here indicate marked changes in the expression of miRNAs, as well as genes related to neuronal development, occurred in the differentiation of NTera2D1 and P19 cells. Significant changes in miRNA expression were not observed in Neuro2a and PC12D cells, although they showed apparent morphologic change between undifferentiated and differentiated cells. Of the miRNAs investigated, the expression of miRNAs belonging to the miR-302 cluster, which is known to be specifically expressed in embryonic stem cells, and of miR-124a specific to the brain, appeared to be markedly changed. The miR-302 cluster was potently expressed in undifferentiated NTera2D1 and P19 cells, but hardly in differentiated cells, such that miR-124a showed an opposite expression pattern to the miR-302 cluster. Based on these observations, it is suggested that the miR-302 cluster and miR-124a may be useful molecular indicators in the assessment of degree of undifferentiation and/or differentiation in the course of neuronal differentiation. 相似文献

We have recently developed a rapid protocol involving NT2 cell aggregation and treatment with retinoic acid (RA) to produce terminally differentiated CNS neurons. As a first step to explore the functional roles of cell-cycle regulatory proteins in the process of neuronal differentiation, the expression profiles of cyclin-dependent kinases (Cdks) and their regulators were examined in NT2 cells following treatment with RA. One of the Cdks, Cdk5, has been demonstrated to affect the process of neuronal differentiation and suggested to play an important role in development of the nervous system. We found that the expression of Cdk5 was gradually increased, while its activators (p35 and p39) as well as Cdk5 kinase activity were induced in NT2 cells during the process of neuronal differentiation. Moreover, both p35 and p39 were localized along the axons and varicosity-like structures of differentiated NT2 neurons. Taken together, our results demonstrated that NT2 cells provide a good in vitro model system to examine signaling pathways involved in the regulation of Cdk5 activators and to elucidate the functional roles of Cdk5 in neuronal differentiation. 相似文献

Treatment of mouse embryonal carcinoma (F9) cells with retinoic acid, an inducer of F9 cell differentiation, greatly increased the level of mRNA specific to one of the heat-shock proteins (HSP86). Experiments including the one employing differentiation-resistant mutant F9 cells suggested that the increase represents early molecular events associated with the embryonal differentiation. The increased HSP86 mRNA declined to the original level during further incubation. The presence of cyclic AMP, which stimulates conversion of the retinoic acid-induced primitive endoderm cells to parietal endoderm cells, prevented the decline. These results suggest that not only the elevation of HSP86 mRNA level represents early molecular events in F9 cell differentiation but also that sustaining the elevated level (by cyclic AMP) is associated with further differentiation of the embryonal cells. 相似文献

Apoptosis during iron chelator-induced differentiation in F9 embryonal carcinoma cells 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3

We have previously demonstrated that three potent iron chelators, hinokitiol, dithizone and deferoxamine, induce differentiation of F9 embryonal carcinoma cells, as do other well-known morphogens such as retinoic acid (RA) and sodium butyrate (NaB). In this study, we compared the patterns of cell proliferation, cell death and cell cycle arrest during the process of differentiation induced by these five agents. When F9 cells were cultured with the agents at their individual differentiation-inducing concentrations, cell proliferation was rapidly inhibited by treatment with the iron chelators and NaB. In contrast, RA did not influence the rate of increase of cell number at the concentration of 1 microm. The three chelators also caused a marked reduction in cell viability, and the treated cells exhibited internucleosomal DNA fragmentation, whereas cells treated with NaB showed no apoptotic characteristics. RA induced apoptosis weakly at 1 microm and strongly at higher concentrations. In addition, all the iron chelators hindered cell cycle progression, resulting in an arrest at the G1-S interface or S phase. The phenomena observed in chelator-treated cells were considerably different from those in RA- or NaB-treated cells. It is concluded that the three iron chelators cause both severe apoptotic cell death and cell cycle arrest of proliferating F9 cells via cellular iron deprivation, and that this apoptotic change may be independent of the process of differentiation. 相似文献

The lamin complement of nuclear matrix isolated from F9 embryonal carcinoma cells was studied during retinoic acid-induced differentiation in culture. Differentiation of the original cells into parietal endoderm-like cells was accompanied by the gradual appearance of lamins A and C while lamin B was present throughout all stages. Lamins were identified by their molecular masses, isoelectric points, recognition by a monoclonal antibody and a polyclonal antiserum, and by peptide mapping. The increase in the amounts of lamins A and C found in the matrix was due to de novo synthesis as no extranuclear pools of these lamins were detected in the undifferentiated cells. These results provide biochemical evidence that, as in amphibian embryogenesis, there are variations in nuclear lamina composition during mammalian development. 相似文献
