Background
Neurotrophins are important regulators for neural development and regeneration. Nerve growth factor (NGF) therapy has been tested in various models of neural injury and degeneration. However, whether NGF can reach target tissues and maintain effective concentration for a certain period of time remains uncertain. To facilitate neural regeneration, we investigate the possibility of combining NGF and electrical stimulation (ES) in promoting neurite outgrowth, an essential process during neural regeneration.Methods
PC12 cells were seeded on collagen and indium tin oxide (ITO)-coated area on the transparent conductive devices. Cells were then subjected to the combination of ES and NGF treatment. Neurite outgrowth was compared.Results
Our findings suggest that ES of 100 mV/mm together with NGF provides optimal effect on neurite outgrowth of PC12 cells. ES increases NGF-induced neurite length but reduces neurite branching, indicative of its primary effect on neurite elongation instead of initiation. One mechanism that ES enhances neurite outgrowth is through increasing NGF-induced phosphorylation of ERK1/2 (pERK1/2) and expression of Egr1 gene. ES has previously been demonstrated to increase the activity of protein kinase C (PKC). Our result indicates that activating PKC further increases NGF-induced pERK1/2 and thus neurite outgrowth.Conclusion
It is likely that ES promotes NGF-induced neurite outgrowth through modulating the activity of ERK1/2.General significance
Findings from this study suggest that combining ES and NGF provides a promising strategy for promoting neurite outgrowth. 相似文献2.

Transient Receptor Potential Canonical (TRPC) channels are implicated in modulating neurite outgrowth. The expression pattern of TRPCs changes significantly during brain development, suggesting that fine-tuning TRPC expression may be important for orchestrating neuritogenesis. To study how alterations in the TRPC expression pattern affect neurite outgrowth, we used nerve growth factor (NGF)-differentiated rat pheochromocytoma 12 (PC12) cells, a model system for neuritogenesis. In PC12 cells, NGF markedly up-regulated TRPC1 and TRPC6 expression, but down-regulated TRPC5 expression while promoting neurite outgrowth. Overexpression of TRPC1 augmented, whereas TRPC5 overexpression decelerated NGF-induced neurite outgrowth. Conversely, shRNA-mediated knockdown of TRPC1 decreased, whereas shRNA-mediated knockdown of TRPC5 increased NGF-induced neurite extension. Endogenous TRPC1 attenuated the anti-neuritogenic effect of overexpressed TRPC5 in part by forming the heteromeric TRPC1-TRPC5 channels. Previous reports suggested that TRPC6 may facilitate neurite outgrowth. However, we found that TRPC6 overexpression slowed down neuritogenesis, whereas dominant negative TRPC6 (DN-TRPC6) facilitated neurite outgrowth in NGF-differentiated PC12 cells. Consistent with these findings, hyperforin, a neurite outgrowth promoting factor, decreased TRPC6 expression in NGF-differentiated PC12 cells. Using pharmacological and molecular biological approaches, we determined that NGF up-regulated TRPC1 and TRPC6 expression via a p75(NTR)-IKK(2)-dependent pathway that did not involve TrkA receptor signaling in PC12 cells. Similarly, NGF up-regulated TRPC1 and TRPC6 via an IKK(2) dependent pathway in primary cultured hippocampal neurons. Thus, our data suggest that a balance of TRPC1, TRPC5, and TRPC6 expression determines neurite extension rate in neural cells, with TRPC6 emerging as an NGF-dependent "molecular damper" maintaining a submaximal velocity of neurite extension. 相似文献

Previous work showed that the adapter protein SH2B adapter protein 1beta (SH2B1) (SH2-B) binds to the activated form of the nerve growth factor (NGF) receptor TrkA and is critical for both NGF-dependent neurite outgrowth and maintenance. To identify SH2B1beta-regulated genes critical for neurite outgrowth, we performed microarray analysis of control PC12 cells and PC12 cells stably overexpressing SH2B1beta (PC12-SH2B1beta) or the dominant-negative SH2B1beta(R555E) [PC12-SH2B1beta(R555E)]. NGF-induced microarray expression of Plaur and Mmp10 genes was greatly enhanced in PC12-SH2B1beta cells, whereas NGF-induced Plaur and Mmp3 expression was substantially depressed in PC12-SH2B1beta(R555E) cells. Plaur, Mmp3, and Mmp10 are among the 12 genes most highly up-regulated after 6 h of NGF. Their protein products [urokinase plasminogen activator receptor (uPAR), matrix metalloproteinase 3 (MMP3), and MMP10] lie in the same pathway of extracellular matrix degradation; uPAR has been shown previously to be critical for NGF-induced neurite outgrowth. Quantitative real-time PCR analysis revealed SH2B1beta enhancement of NGF induction of all three genes and the suppression of NGF induction of all three when endogenous SH2B1 was reduced using short hairpin RNA against SH2B1 and in PC12-SH2B1beta(R555E) cells. NGF-induced levels of uPAR and MMP3/10 and neurite outgrowth through Matrigel (MMP3-dependent) were also increased in PC12-SH2B1beta cells. These results suggest that SH2B1beta stimulates NGF-induced neuronal differentiation at least in part by enhancing expression of a specific subset of NGF-sensitive genes, including Plaur, Mmp3, and/or Mmp10, required for neurite outgrowth. 相似文献

We report here that a microbial extracellular glycolipid,mannosylerythritol lipid (MEL), induces the outgrowth ofneurites from and enhances the activity of acetylcholinesterase(AChE) in PC12 pheochromocytoma cells. Furthermore, treatment ofPC12 cells with MEL increased levels of galactosylceramide(Gal1-1Cer; GalCer). Exposure of PC12 cells to exogenous GalCer caused the dose-dependent outgrowth ofneurites. By contrast, treatment of PC12 cells with nerve growthfactor (NGF) did not increase the level of GalCer in the cells. The neurite-related morphological changes induced by GalCerdifferend from those induced by NGF, indicating differencesbetween the signal transduction pathways triggered by NGF and by GalCer.Both authors contributed equally to this work. 相似文献

Vitronectin is the major serum protein essential for NGF-mediated neurite outgrowth from PC12 cells.
The rat pheochromocytoma cell line PC12 can be induced to differentiate in response to nerve growth factor (NGF) in the presence of 1% fetal calf serum (FCS). Using a novel assay procedure we have developed a purification protocol which has allowed the isolation of the protein in serum responsible for neurite outgrowth after NGF treatment. FCS has been fractionated using four chromatographic procedures and in each case the peak of biological activity copurified with vitronectin. We have concluded, therefore, that vitronectin is the protein present in FCS which can mediate NGF-dependent neurite outgrowth in PC12 cells. Vitronectin and fibronectin from FCS have been chromatographically separated and only the former is capable of inducing neurite outgrowth. We have also shown that vitronectin utilizes the RGD amino acid sequence in binding to the surface of PC12s. 相似文献

The Src homology 2 (SH2) domain adaptor protein Shb has been shown to transmit NGF- and FGF-2-dependent differentiation signals in PC12 cells. To study if this involves signaling through the small GTPase Rap1, Rap1 activity was assessed in Shb-overexpressing PC12 cells. We demonstrate that NGF and EGF induce Rap1 activation in PC12-Shb cells, while FGF-2 fails to do so. However, PC12 cells expressing Shb with an inactivated SH2 domain do not respond to NGF stimulation with Rap1 activation. The CrkII SH2 domain interacts with Shb and a 130- to 135-kDa phosphotyrosine protein present mainly in PC12-Shb cells and these interactions may thus relate to the effect of Shb on Rap1 activation. Transient expression of RalGDS-RBD or Rap1GAP to block the Rap1 pathway reduces the NGF-dependent neurite outgrowth in PC12-Shb cells. These results suggest a role of Shb in NGF-dependent Rap1 signaling and this pathway may be of significance for neurite outgrowth under certain conditions. 相似文献

SIRT1, a NAD+-dependent protein deacetylase, is known to have neural functions. However, despite its cytoplasmic expression in some neural cells, its cytoplasmic function, if any, is unknown. Here we found that PC12 (pheochromocytoma) cells expressed SIRT1 in the cytoplasm. Nerve growth factor (NGF)-induced neurite outgrowth of these cells was promoted by activators of SIRT1, while inhibitors of SIRT1 or SIRT1-siRNA significantly inhibited it. The overexpression of a mutant SIRT1 that localised to the cytoplasm but not the nucleus enhanced the NGF-dependent neurite outgrowth, and a cytoplasmic dominant-negative SIRT1 suppressed it. Thus, cytoplasmic SIRT1 increases the NGF-induced neurite outgrowth of PC12 cells. 相似文献

Blockage of Nerve Growth Factor Action in PC12h Cells by Staurosporine, a Potent Protein Kinase Inhibitor 总被引:13,自引:9,他引:4
Staurosporine, which has a structure similar to that of K-252a, a potent protein kinase inhibitor that blocks nerve growth factor (NGF) action in PC12 and PC12h cells, is also known as a potent inhibitor of several protein kinases. This study shows that in PC12h cells staurosporine has a dual action: at lower concentrations than that required by K-252a, it is an inhibitor of NGF induction of neurite formation and of changes in the phosphorylation of specific proteins, whereas at concentrations higher than that required to inhibit NGF-induced neurite outgrowth, it rapidly enhances outgrowth by itself. 相似文献

Tests have been made of the action of the methyltransferase inhibitors 5'-S-methyl adenosine, 5'-S-(2-methyl-propyl)-adenosine, and 3-deaza- adenosine +/- L-homocysteine thiolactone, on nerve growth factor (NGF)- dependent events in the rat pheochromocytoma line PC12. Each of these agents inhibited NGF-dependent neurite outgrowth at concentrations of the order of millimolar. Slow initiation of neurite outgrowth over several days and more rapid regeneration of neurites (congruent to 1 d) were blocked, as was the priming mechanism necessary for genesis of neurites. The inhibitions were reversible in that PC12 cells maintained for several days in the presence of inhibitors grew neurites normally after washout of these agents. Other NGF-dependent responses of the PC12 line (i.e., induction of ornithine decarboxylase activity [over 4 h], enhancement of tyrosine hydroxylase phosphorylation [over 1 h], and rapid changes in cell surface morphology [30 s onward]) were inhibited by each of the agents. In contrast, corresponding epidermal growth factor-dependent responses in ornithine decarboxylase activity, phosphorylation, and cell surface morphology were not blocked, but instead either unaffected or enhanced, by the methylation inhibitors. These inhibitors did not act by blockade of binding of NGF to high- or low-affinity cell surface receptors, though they partially inhibited internalization of [125I]NGF. The inhibition of rapidly-induced NGF- dependent events and the differential inhibition of responses to NGF and epidermal growth factor imply that the methyltransferase inhibitors specifically block one of the first steps in the mechanistic pathway for NGF. 相似文献

Nerve growth factor (NGF) is a trophic agent that is essential for the development and survival of sympathetic and sensory nerves. A chemically-synthesized DNA fragment encoding human NGF (hNGF) and a cDNA encoding mouse NGF (mNGF) were engineered for expression in the yeast, Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Expression and secretion of hNGF and mNGF was attempted under the direction of the yeast PGK promoter and with various leader sequences. Among the leader sequences tested, that of the yeast -factor successfully directed secretion of both hNGF and mNGF that were correctly processed. The content of the recombinant NGF (reNGF) in the culture supernatant was estimated to be 1 g/ml. The yeast-produced reNGF was able to bind to NGF receptors in rat pheochromocytoma (PC12) cells as efficiently as the standard mNGF, and partially purified reNGF could induce neurite outgrowth of PC12 cells. Thus, we have demonstrated that biologically active human and mouse reNGF can be produced in yeast cells.

Two signaling pathways, phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI-3k)/Akt and Ras/MAPK, are major effectors triggered by nerve growth factor (NGF). Rac1, Cdc42 and GSK-3beta are reported to be targets of PI-3k in the signal transduction for neurite outgrowth. Immediately after NGF was added, broad ruffles were observed temporarily around the periphery of PC12 cells prior to neurite growth. As PC12D cells are characterized by a very rapid extension of neurites in response to various agents, the signaling pathways described above were studied in relation to the NGF-induced formation of ruffles and outgrowth of neurites. Wortmannin, an Akt inhibitor (V), and GSK-3beta inhibitor (SB425286) suppressed the neurite growth in NGF-treated cells, but not in dbcAMP-treated cells. The outgrowth of neurites induced by NGF but not by dbcAMP was inhibited with the expression of mutant Ras. But upon the expression of dominant-negative Rac1, cells often extended protrusions, incomplete neurites, lacking F-actin. Intact neurites were observed in cells with dominant-negative Cdc42. These results suggest that NGF-dependent neurite outgrowth occurs via a mechanism involving activation of the Ras/PI-3K/Akt/GSK-3beta pathway, while dbcAMP-dependent neurite growth might be induced in a distinct manner. However, inhibitors for GSK-3beta and PI-3k (wortmannin) did not suppress the NGF-dependent formation of ruffles. In addition, the formation of ruffles was not inhibited by the expression of mutant Ras. On the other hand, it was suppressed by the expression of dominant-negative Rac1 or Cdc42. These results suggest that the NGF-induced ruffling requires activation of Rac1 and Cdc42, but does not require Ras, PI-3k, Akt and GSK-3beta. Taken together, the NGF-dependent formation of ruffles might not require Ras/PI-3k/Akt/GSK-3beta, but these pathways might contribute to the formation of intact neurites due to combined actions including Rac1. 相似文献

We present evidence that the neurite out-growth stimulated by the binding of Thy-1 antibodies to PC12 cells is mediated by calcium influx through both N- and L-type calcium channels. PC12 cells cultured on a noncellular substratum in the presence of NGF, or on a cellular substratum in the absence of NGF, responded to soluble Thy-1 antibody by extending longer neurites. The response required bivalent antibody and could be blocked by removing Thy-1 from the surface of PC12 cells with phosphatidylinositol specific phospholipase C. The response could also be blocked by reducing extracellular calcium to 0.25 mM, or by antagonists of L- and N-type calcium channels. Additionally, the response could be fully inhibited by preloading PC12 cells with BAPTA/AM which buffers changes in intracellular calcium. A heterotrimeric G-protein is also implicated in the pathway as the response could be fully inhibited by pertussis toxin. These data suggest that antibody-induced clustering of Thy-1 stimulates neurite outgrowth by activating a second messenger pathway that has previously been shown to underlie cell adhesion molecule (NCAM, N-cadherin, and L1), but not integrin or NGF-dependent neurite outgrowth. 相似文献

We have established a subline of PC12 cells (PC12D) that extend neurites very quickly in response not only to nerve growth factor (NGF) but also to cyclic AMP (cAMP) in the same way as primed PC12 cells (NGF-pretreated cells). When phosphorylation of brain microtubule proteins by extracts of these cells was monitored, two distinct kinase activities were found to be increased [from three- to eightfold in terms of phosphorylation of microtubule-associated protein (MAP) 2] by a brief exposure of cells to NGF or to dibutyryl cAMP(dbcAMP). The effect of the combined stimulation with both NGF and dbcAMP was additive in terms of the phosphorylation of MAP2. The apparent molecular mass of the kinase activated by dbcAMP was 40 kDa, and this kinase appears to be cAMP-dependent protein kinase. The molecular mass of the kinase activated by NGF was 50 kDa. The latter was activated to a measurable extent after 5 min of exposure of cells to NGF; it required Mg2+ for activity but not Mn2+ or Ca2+. This kinase appears to be distinct from previously reported kinases in PC12 cells, and it has been designated as NGF-dependent MAP kinase, although its physiological substrates are not known at present. An inhibitor of protein kinases, K-252a, selectively inhibited the outgrowth of neurites from PC12D cells in response to NGF but not to dbcAMP. When this inhibitor was added to the incubation medium of cells exposed simultaneously to NGF or dbcAMP, the increase in activity of the NGF-dependent MAP kinase was selectively abolished. We isolated several mutant clones of PC12D cells that were deficient in the ability to induce neurites in response to either of the two stimulators. In these variant cells, the activity of the relevant protein kinase was decreased, in parallel with the deficiency in the neurite response to NGF or dbcAMP. These observations suggest that the NGF-dependent MAP kinase may play an important role in the outgrowth of neurites from PC12 cells in response to NGF. 相似文献

We have examined the expression of GDP-fucose: glycosphingolipid fucosyltransferase activity in PC12 cells and PC12 sublines in relation to the neuronal differentiation induced by nerve growth factor (NGF) or dexamethasone. Transfer of fucose to paragloboside (nLc4Cer) yielded a product which was determined to be a blood group H1 antigen (Fuc1-2Gal1-4GlcNAc1-3Gal1-4Glc-Cer) by gas chromatography/mass spectrometry analysis and enzymatic hydrolysis, suggesting that PC12 cells have an 1,2-fucosyltransferase. Lactosylceramide was also fucosylated at a reduced rate. When the differentiation of PC12 cells and PC12 subline cells, PC12D and MR31, was induced by exposure to either NGF or dexamethasone, the fucosyltransferase activity for nLc4Cer was found to decrease in both cell lines, suggesting the association with cell differentiation. This is the first report of the presence of an 1,2-fucosyltransferase in cultured neuronal cell lines which catalyses thein vitro biosynthesis from nLc4Cer of a type-2 chain glycosphingolipid having the blood group H1 determinant. The disaccharides, -lactose andN-acetyllactosamine, were also fucosylated by PC12 cell enzyme, although the specificity for the carbohydrate structure was different from that for glycosphingolipids.Abbreviations Glc

Possible roles of coexisting cells in inducing neurite growth from a nerve cell were studied. Nerve growth factor (NGF)-inducing neurite growth from PC12h-R (a cell line derived from cultured nerve cells) was investigated at various cell densities. At the cell density 102104 cells/ml neurites appeared even without NGF. In contrast, no neurite appeared without NGF in single cell culture. The neurite growth observed in plural cell culture without NGF was only partially inhibited by antibody to NGF receptor (Ab-NGFR). However, the effect of the used medium alone was mostly inhibited by Ab-NGFR. These results suggest that the neurite inducing potency of coexisting cells is via different sites than the NGF receptor.Abbreviations Ab-IgG-FITC

LAMTOR2 (p14), a part of the larger LAMTOR/Ragulator complex, plays a crucial role in EGF-dependent activation of p42/44 mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPK, ERK1/2). In this study, we investigated the role of LAMTOR2 in nerve growth factor (NGF)-mediated neuronal differentiation. Stimulation of PC12 (rat adrenal pheochromocytoma) cells with NGF is known to activate the MAPK. Pharmacological inhibition of MEK1 as well as siRNA–mediated knockdown of both p42 and p44 MAPK resulted in inhibition of neurite outgrowth. Contrary to expectations, siRNA–mediated knockdown of LAMTOR2 effectively augmented neurite formation and neurite length of PC12 cells. Ectopic expression of a siRNA-resistant LAMTOR2 ortholog reversed this phenotype back to wildtype levels, ruling out nonspecific off-target effects of this LAMTOR2 siRNA approach. Mechanistically, LAMTOR2 siRNA treatment significantly enhanced NGF-dependent MAPK activity, and this effect again was reversed upon expression of the siRNA-resistant LAMTOR2 ortholog. Studies of intracellular trafficking of the NGF receptor TrkA revealed a rapid colocalization with early endosomes, which was modulated by LAMTOR2 siRNA. Inhibition of LAMTOR2 and concomitant destabilization of the remaining members of the LAMTOR complex apparently leads to a faster release of the TrkA/MAPK signaling module and nuclear increase of activated MAPK. These results suggest a modulatory role of the MEK1 adapter protein LAMTOR2 in NGF-mediated MAPK activation required for induction of neurite outgrowth in PC12 cells. 相似文献
