The nerve growth factor (NGF) synthesis/secretion by cultured mouse astroglial cells was modulated by catecholamine. In quiescent cells, epinephrine (EN) and dopamine (DA) markedly increased the NGF content in the conditioned medium (CM). Conversely, EN, DA, and norepinephrine (NE) decreased the NGF content in growing cells. Cholinergic agonists, metacholine and carbamylcholine, slightly increased the NGF content in quiescent cells, but showed no effects on growing cells. Other neurotransmitters tested had no effects on either growing or quiescent cells. These results suggest that catecholamine is one of the molecules responsible for regulation of NGF synthesis/secretion in the mouse brain. 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

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

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

Astroglial cells cultured from the mouse brain have been found to synthesize and secrete a material(s) with nerve growth factor-like immunoreactivity (NGF-LI) into their culture medium. A material(s) with NGF-LI showed identical properties to those of beta NGF purified from the mouse submaxillary gland in immunoreactivity, molecular weight, isoelectric point, and neurite outgrowth stimulatory activity. These results indicate that astroglial cells cultured from mouse brain are able to synthesize and secrete beta NGF in culture. 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

Serum contains a macromolecular effector promoting the synthesis of nerve growth factor (NGF) in L cells 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Addition of serum to the culture medium of murine L cells increased both the cellular level of NGF mRNA and the secretion of mature factor. Stimulation of NGF production by the serum was dose-dependent and appeared mediated by some specific factor(s). After gel filtration chromatography of serum, most of the biological activity formed a major peak with an apparent MW of about 160 kDa. This promoting factor was sensitive to heat at neutral pH, but resisted after heating at pH4. An activity inducing NGF synthesis, and displaying a comparable thermal sensitivity was also detected in Cohn fraction IV of human or bovine plasma. 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

The beta-amyloid protein, component of the senile plaques found in Alzheimer brains is proteolytically derived from the beta-amyloid precursor protein (APP), a larger membrane-associated protein that is expressed in both neural and non-neural cells. Overexpression of APP might be one of the mechanisms that more directly contributes to the development of Alzheimer's disease. The APP gene expression is regulated by a number of cellular mediators including nerve growth factor (NGF) and other ligands of tyrosine kinase receptors. We have previously described that NGF increases APP mRNA levels in PC12 cells. However, the molecular mechanisms and the precise signalling pathways that mediate its regulation are not yet well understood. In the present study we present evidence that NGF, and to a lesser extent fibroblast growth factor and epidermal growth factor, stimulate APP promoter activity in PC12 cells. This induction is mediated by DNA sequences located between the nucleotides - 307 and - 15, and involves activation of the Ras-MAP kinase signalling pathway. In contrast, we have also found that NGF-induced secretion of soluble fragments of APP into the culture medium is mediated by a Ras independent mechanism. 相似文献

6-Hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA) is often used in models of Parkinson's disease since it can selectively target and kill dopaminergic cells of the substantia nigra. In this study, pre-treatment of PC12 cells with nerve growth factor (NGF) inhibited apoptosis and necrosis by 6-OHDA, including caspase activity and lactate dehydrogenase release. Notably, cells exposed to 6-OHDA in the presence of NGF were subsequently capable of proliferation (when replated without NGF), or neurite outgrowth (with continued presence of NGF). Following 7 days growth in the presence of NGF, expression of betaIII tubulin and tyrosine hydroxylase and increased intracellular catecholamines was detectable in PC12 cells, features characteristic of functional dopaminergic neurons. NGF-pre-treated PC12 cells retained expression of betaIII-tubulin and tyrosine hydroxylase, but not catecholamine content following 6-OHDA exposure. These data indicate that NGF-protected cells maintained some aspects of functionality and were subsequently capable of proliferation or differentiation. 相似文献

The effect of a kampo medicine, Ninjin-yoei-to (NYT; Ren-shen-yang-rong-tang in Chinese) on nerve growth factor (NGF) secretion from the cultured rat astrocytes was examined in vitro. When rat embryo astrocytes were cultured in the presence of NYT for 24 h, the amount of NGF in the medium was significantly increased in a dose dependent manner. Among 14 kinds of component herbs in NYT, the roots of Polygala tenuifolia and roots of Panax ginseng extracts increased NGF levels from the astrocytes. Saponin fraction from the roots of P. tenuifolia enhanced the production of NGF, however phenolic glycoside fraction showed no effect. Onjisaponins A, B, E, F and G as major saponins of the root of P. tenuifolia strongly increased the NGF level, whereas ginsenosides Rb1 and Rg1 did not affect the NGF level. Onjisaponin F also induced ChAT mRNA level in rat basal forebrain cells. These results indicate the possibility that NYT and/or onjisaponins in P. tenuifolia may have potential therapeutic effects for the treatment of Alzheimer disease patients. 相似文献

Serum-free mouse embryo (SFME) cells, derived in medium in which serum is replaced with growth factors and other supplements, are proastroblasts that are acutely dependent on epidermal growth factor (EGF) for survival. Ultrastructurally, an early change found in SFME cells deprived of EGF was a loss of polysomes which sedimentation analysis confirmed to be a shift from polysomes to monosomes. The ribosomal shift was not accompanied by decreased steady-state level of cytoplasmic actin mRNA examined as an indicator of cellular mRNA level. With time the cells became small and severely degenerate and exhibited nuclear morphology characteristic of apoptosis. Genomic DNA isolated from cultures undergoing EGF deprivation-dependent cell death exhibited a pattern of fragmentation resulting from endonuclease activation characteristic of cells undergoing apoptosis or programmed cell death. Flow cytometric analysis indicated that cultures in the absence of EGF contained almost exclusively G1-phase cells. Some of the phenomena associated with EGF deprivation of SFME cells are similar to those observed upon NGF deprivation of nerve cells in culture, suggesting that these neuroectodermal-derived cell types share common mechanisms of proliferative control involving peptide growth factor-dependent survival. 相似文献

Although apolipoprotein (apo) E is synthesized in the brain primarily by astrocytes, neurons in the central nervous system express apoE, albeit at lower levels than astrocytes, in response to various physiological and pathological conditions, including excitotoxic stress. To investigate how apoE expression is regulated in neurons, we transfected Neuro-2a cells with a 17-kilobase human apoE genomic DNA construct encoding apoE3 or apoE4 along with upstream and downstream regulatory elements. The baseline expression of apoE was low. However, conditioned medium from an astrocytic cell line (C6) or from apoE-null mouse primary astrocytes increased the expression of both isoforms by 3-4-fold at the mRNA level and by 4-10-fold at the protein level. These findings suggest that astrocytes secrete a factor or factors that regulate apoE expression in neuronal cells. The increased expression of apoE was almost completely abolished by incubating neurons with U0126, an inhibitor of extracellular signal-regulated kinase (Erk), suggesting that the Erk pathway controls astroglial regulation of apoE expression in neuronal cells. Human neuronal precursor NT2/D1 cells expressed apoE constitutively; however, after treatment of these cells with retinoic acid to induce differentiation, apoE expression diminished. Cultured mouse primary cortical and hippocampal neurons also expressed low levels of apoE. Astrocyte-conditioned medium rapidly up-regulated apoE expression in fully differentiated NT2 neurons and in cultured mouse primary cortical and hippocampal neurons. Thus, neuronal expression of apoE is regulated by a diffusible factor or factors released from astrocytes, and this regulation depends on the activity of the Erk kinase pathway in neurons. 相似文献
