Neurogenin1 is an important bHLH protein that plays crucial role in neurogenesis. We first show that the expression of ngn1 increases drastically in RA induced neuronal differentiation. During which, a three successive stages of the epigenetic changes surrounding the ngn1 gene are found correlated with a repression to activation of the gene in P19 cells. Recruiting of a repressive histone code H3K27me3 on the ngn1 gene is the dominant change in first repression stage, which is followed by the binding of the active codes of H3K9ac, H3K14ac, and the H3K4me3 in the second and third stages of RA treatment. Additionally, BRM but not BRG1 is specifically recruited to ngn1 gene at the third stage and is positively involved in the RA induced ngn1 expression. We propose that histone modifiers and chromatin remodelers are pivotal in the activation of the ngn1 gene in RA induced differentiation of P19 cells. J. Cell.

ADAM23 (a disintegrin and metalloprotease 23), a member of brain MDC (macrophage‐derived chemokine) family, is important for the development of CNS (central nervous system). P19 mouse embryonal carcinoma cells can differentiate into neurons when cultured in aggregates and induced with RA (retinoic acid). We have found that under conditions without RA induction, knocking down ADAM23 with RNAi (RNA interference) promoted neuronal differentiation, and similarly recombinant GST (glutathione transferase)‐ADAM23‐DIS protein inhibited neuronal differentiation of P19/ADAM23KD (P19/ADAM23‐knockdown) cells. In P19/ADAM23KD, there were more cells arrested in G1 phase than normal P19 cells, due to the up‐regulation of P57KIP2 and P27KIP1 expression. P27KIP1 was up‐regulated during the differentiation process of both P19/ADAM23KD cells without RA induction, and P19 cells with RA induction. Transient overexpression of P27KIP1 in P19 cells also promoted neuronal differentiation of P19 cells. The findings indicate that ADAM23 suppresses neuronal differentiation through its disintegrin domain, and Adam23 KD up‐regulates P27KIP1 in P19/ADAM23KD cells, one reason that P19/ADAM23KD cells can differentiate into neurons without RA induction. 相似文献

Znf179 is a member of the RING finger protein family. During embryogenesis, Znf179 is expressed in a restricted manner in the brain, suggesting a potential role in nervous system development. In this report, we show that the expression of Znf179 is upregulated during P19 cell neuronal differentiation. Inhibition of Znf179 expression by RNA interference significantly attenuated neuronal differentiation of P19 cells and a primary culture of cerebellar granule cells. Using a microarray approach and subsequent functional annotation analysis, we identified differentially expressed genes in Znf179-knockdown cells and found that several genes are involved in development, cellular growth, and cell cycle control. Flow cytometric analyses revealed that the population of G0/G1 cells decreased in Znf179-knockdown cells. In agreement with the flow cytometric data, the number of BrdU-incorporated cells significantly increased in Znf179-knockdown cells. Moreover, in Znf179-knockdown cells, p35, a neuronal-specific Cdk5 activator that is known to activate Cdk5 and may affect the cell cycle, and p27, a cell cycle inhibitor, also decreased. Collectively, these results show that induction of the Znf179 gene may be associated with p35 expression and p27 protein accumulation, which lead to cell cycle arrest in the G0/G1 phase, and is critical for neuronal differentiation of P19 cells. 相似文献

The methylcytosine dioxygenases TET proteins (TET1, TET2, and TET3) play important regulatory roles in neural function. In this study, we investigated the role of TET proteins in neuronal differentiation using Neuro2a cells as a model. We observed that knockdown of TET1, TET2 or TET3 promoted neuronal differentiation of Neuro2a cells, and their overexpression inhibited VPA (valproic acid)-induced neuronal differentiation, suggesting all three TET proteins negatively regulate neuronal differentiation of Neuro2a cells. Interestingly, the inducing activity of TET protein is independent of its enzymatic activity. Our previous studies have demonstrated that srGAP3 can negatively regulate neuronal differentiation of Neuro2a cells. Furthermore, we revealed that TET1 could positively regulate srGAP3 expression independent of its catalytic activity, and srGAP3 is required for TET-mediated neuronal differentiation of Neuro2a cells. The results presented here may facilitate better understanding of the role of TET proteins in neuronal differentiation, and provide a possible therapy target for neuroblastoma. 相似文献

Summary The embryonal carcinoma cell line P19 is derived from mouse teratocarcinomas. These pluripotent cells can be induced to differentiate
into a variety of cell types by exposure to various drugs. We used retinoic acid to induce embryonal carcinoma cells to differentiate
into neuronlike cells. In this study, we show that changes occur in mitochondria during differentiation of embryonal carcinoma
cells to neuronlike cells. We found that various morphologic parameters such as mitochondrial fractional area and mitochondrial
size decrease as embryonal carcinoma cells differentiate into neuronlike cells. Similar changes were also observed in mitochondrial
DNA content. Stereologic analysis of cell preparations provided a measure of mitochondrial fractional area per cell and mtDNA
content was assessed by radiolabeled mtDNA probe. This study establishes that mitochondria are regulated as cells differentiate.

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.

MicroRNAs (or miRNAs) are small non-coding RNAs (21-25 nucleotides) that are involved in a wide range of activities related to the development and differentiation of cells. Comparison of the miRNA expression profiles of mouse P19 embryonic carcinoma cells with those of differentiated neural stem cells showed that the expression level of 65 miRNAs changed (2-fold) after differentiation. MiR-124a was dramatically upregulated (more than 20-fold) while miRNAs of the miR-302 family and those in the miR-290-295 cluster were strongly down-regulated. Further analysis revealed that some important factors such as Oct4 and Sox2 appeared to be involved in the regulation of these miRNAs. These results may contribute to a better understanding of miRNA-regulated neural differentiation in early mouse embryos. 相似文献

Alpha-lipoic acid (oL-LA) is a potent antioxidant that acts as an essential cofactor in mitochondrial dehydrogenase reac- tions, α-LA has been shown to possess anti-inflammatory and cytoprotective properties, and is used to improve symptoms of diabetic neuropathy. However, the role of α-LA in stem cell differentiation and the underlying molecular mechanisms remain unknown. In the present study, we showed that α-LA significantly promoted dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO)-induced cardiomyogenic differentiation of mouse embryonic carcin- oma P19 cells. α-LA dose dependently increased beating embryonic body (EB) percentages of DMSO-differentiated P19 cells. The expressions of cardiac specific genes TNNT2, Nkx2.5, GATA4, MEF2C, and MLC2V and cardiac isoform of troponin T (cTnT)-positively stained cell population were significantly up-regulated by the addition of α-LA. We also demonstrated that the differentiation time after EB formation was critical for α-LA to take effect. Interestingly, without DMSO treatment, α-LA did not stimulate the cardi- omyogenic differentiation of P19 cells. Further investigation indicated that collagen synthesis-enhancing activity, instead of the antioxidative property, plays a significant role in the cardiomyogenic differentiation-promoting function of α-LA. These findings highlight the potential use of α-LA for regen- erative therapies in heart diseases. 相似文献

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
