PC12 cell line is well documented and widely applied as many kinds of models in neurobiological and neurochemical studies. Yet a thorough proteomic analysis has not been performed so far. Here we report the construction of a large-scale 2-D protein database for PC12 cells. The proteins extracted from PC12 cells were separated by 2-DE and identified by MALDI-TOF/TOF MS. A total of 1080 protein spots, excised from three different 2-D gels, were identified with high confidence. These proteins represent 474 different gene products, mainly binding proteins and enzymes. Three hundred and seven identified protein spots were located in the low-molecular weight region below 20 kDa. This database today represents one of the largest 2-D databases for higher eukaryotic cell proteomes and for low-molecular weight proteins. In addition, fragment ion spectra obtained by TOF/TOF confirmed that calcylin in PC12 cells was N-acetylated. The database of PC12 proteome is expected to be a powerful tool for neuroscientists. 相似文献

We have isolated and characterized the cell-associated and secreted proteoglycans synthesized by a clonal line of rat adrenal medullary PC12 pheochromocytoma cells, which have been extensively employed for the study of a wide variety of neurobiological processes. Chondroitin sulfate accounts for 70-80% of the [35S] sulfate-labeled proteoglycans present in PC12 cells and secreted into the medium. Two major chondroitin sulfate proteoglycans were detected with molecular sizes of 45,000-100,000 and 120,000-190,000, comprising 14- and 105-kDa core proteins and one or two chondroitin sulfate chains with an average molecular size of 34 kDa. In contrast to the chondroitin sulfate proteoglycans, one major heparan sulfate proteoglycan accounts for most of the remaining 20-30% of the [35S] sulfate-labeled proteoglycans present in the PC12 cells and medium. It has a molecular size of 95,000-170,000, comprising a 65-kDa core protein and two to six 16-kDa heparan sulfate chains. Both the chondroitin sulfate and heparan sulfate proteoglycans also contain O-glycosidically linked oligosaccharides (25-28% of the total oligosaccharides) and predominantly tri- and tetraantennary N-glycosidic oligosaccharides. Proteoglycans produced by the original clone of PC12 cells were compared with those of two other PC12 cell lines (B2 and F3) that differ from the original clone in morphology, adhesive properties, and response to nerve growth factor. Although the F3 cells (a mutant line derived from B2 and reported to lack a cell surface heparan sulfate proteoglycan) do not contain a large molecular size heparan sulfate proteoglycan species, there was no significant difference between the B2 and F3 cells in the percentage of total heparan sulfate released by mild trypsinization, and both the B2 and F3 cells synthesized cell-associated and secreted chondroitin sulfate and heparan sulfate proteoglycans having properties very similar to those of the original PC12 cell line but with a reversed ratio (35:65) of chondroitin sulfate to heparan sulfate. 相似文献

We investigated neuronal cell differentiation, particularly neurite outgrowth, on the surface of diX H and diX AM using an in vitro examination of a neuron-like rat pheochromocytoma cell line, PC12. diX H and diX AM are in the parylene family of diX C (or Parylene-C), which is widely used as a novel coating material to insulate neural electrodes, and they have been recently commercialized; diX H and diX AM offer different features of biocompatibility. Previously, we found that these new parylene materials have high cell adhesiveness to neuronal cells whereas the adhesiveness of diX C is extremely low. However, their cell differentiation remains unknown although neuronal cell differentiation plays a crucial role in their development and regeneration. This study showed that almost all PC12 cells adhering to the surface of diX AM and diX H were differentiated, but the neurite outgrowth was significantly larger on diX H than that on diX AM and a conventional polystyrene culture dish. The result suggests that diX H may be advantageous as a biocompatible coating material for a scaffold, which can be used on virtually any substrate to get various configurations in neural devices. 相似文献

Though nanomaterials are considered as drug carriers or imaging reagents targeting the central nervous system their cytotoxicity effect on neuronal cells has not been well studied. In this study, we treated PC12 cells, a model neuronal cell line, with a nanomaterial that is widely accepted for medical use, superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (SPIONs). Our results suggest that, after treated with SPIONs, the expression pattern of the cellular miRNAs changed widely in PC12 cells. As potential miRNA targets, NMDAR, one of the candidate mRNAs that were selected using GO and KEGG pathway enrichment, was significantly down regulated by SPIONs treatment. We further illustrated that SPIONs may induce cell death through NMDAR suppression. This study revealed a NMDAR neurotoxic effect of SPIONs and provides a reliable approach for assessing the neurocytotoxic effects of nanomaterials based on the comprehensive annotation of miRNA profiling. 相似文献

Neural stem cells (NSCs) have a bright application prospect to be used to treat neurodegenerative diseases due to their capacity to give rise to the appropriate cell types when they are grafted. At present, however, the function of NSCs after transplantation is not quite ensured, whether to replace the degenerative cells or to secrete nutrient factors. On the other hand, pheochromocytoma cell line 12 (PC12) cells have been widely used for investigating Parkinson's disease (PD) since their apoptosis is similar to that of dopaminergic neuron cells. Therefore, the possible cytoprotective effects of NSCs on the apoptosis of PC12 cells induced by serum deprivation were investigated in this paper. PC12 cells were cocultured with NSCs in DMEM/F12 medium free of serum, and their morphologies, viabilities, and survival were observed with an inverted microscope and assessed with a CCK-8 assay. In addition, the concentrations of glial derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF) in different medium were detected with a GDNF Elisa kit, and the mechanism of NSC's protective effect on PC12 cell apoptosis induced by serum deprivation was analyzed. The results showed that (1) PC12 cell apoptosis induced by serum deprivation increased with time, and only about 44.25% PC12 cells survived after 72 h; (2) NSCs culture medium protected against PC12 cell apoptosis insignificantly; (3) NSCs' supernatant and NSCs mildly prevented PC12 cells from apoptosis; (4) the amount of GDNF secreted by NSCs increased after the coculture with the apoptotic PC12 cells induced by serum deprivation. It can be concluded that there exists clear interaction between NSCs and apoptotic PC12 cells, and that GDNF secretion from NSCs is one of the important mechanisms to prevent the apoptosis of PC12 cells. 相似文献

Neurite outgrowth is essential for the communication of the nervous system. The rat Pheochromocytoma (PC12) cells are commonly used in the neuronal cell study. It is well known that exogenous stimuli such as Nerve Growth Factor (NGF) induce neurite outgrowth. In the present study it has been investigated whether or not the conditioned medium from human neuroblastoma cell line (IMR-32) and human glioblastoma cell line (U87MG) may augment neurite outgrowth in PC12 cells. PC12 were cultured with and without conditioned media of IMR-32 and U87MG. The result showed that both the conditioned media induce neurite outgrowth within 48 hr and stops further proliferation of PC12 cells. However no outgrowth was noted in PC12 cells incubated without conditioned medium. In conclusion, it is shown that both the conditioned media (IMR-32 and U87MG) have the potential to induce the neurite outgrowth in the PC12 cells. 相似文献

The neurotoxin α-bungarotoxin (BuTX) has been extensively used as a specific and irreversible ligand to study the nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (nAChR) in skeletal muscle and electric fish. More recently it has been utilized to investigate the possibility of nAChRs in the CNS. The BuTX binding sites in the CNS have biochemical properties similar to muscle, have a distribution similar to other cholinergic markers, and have been histologically demonstrated to bind to post-synaptic membranes. But studies of ganglionic neurons, cultured sympathetic ganglion cells, and the PC 12 cell culture line have raised questions regarding the use of BuTX as a nicotinic receptor ligand in the CNS. The evidence for and against BuTX as a nicotinic receptor ligand is reviewed and discussed. 相似文献

Some compounds derived from plants have been known to possess estrogenic properties and can thus alter the physiology of higher
organisms. Genistein and daidzin are examples of these phytoestrogens, which have recently been the subject of extensive research.
In this study, genistein and daidzin were found to enhance the acetylcholinesterase (AChE) activity of the rat neuronal cell
line PC12 at concentrations as low as 0.08 μM by binding to the estrogen receptor (ER). Results have shown that this enhancement
was effectively blocked by the known estrogen receptor antagonist tamoxifen, indicating the involvement of the ER in AChE
induction. That genistein and daidzin are estrogenic were confirmed in a cell proliferation assay using the human breast cancer
cell line MCF7. This proliferation was also blocked by tamoxifen, again indicating the involvement of the ER. On the other
hand, incubating the PC12 cells in increasing concentrations of 17 β-estradiol (E2) did not lead to enhanced AChE activity,
even in the presence of genistein or daidzin. This suggests that mere binding of an estrogenic compound to the ER does not
necessarily lead to enhanced AChE activity. Moreover, the effect of the phytoestrogens on AChE activity cannot be expressed
in the presence of E2 since they either could not compete with the natural ligand in binding to the ER or that E2 down-regulates
its own receptor. This study clearly suggests that genistein and daidzin enhance AChE activityin PC12 cells by binding to
the ER; however, the actual mechanism of enhancement is not known.

Summary Among the established plant cell lines, tobacco BY-2 cell line is unique, as it can be highly synchronized by established
procedures. Because of this reason, the cell line has become invaluable for various studies, particularly on cell cycle issues.
The importance of several characteristics of the cell line, some of which have not been handled thus far, is described in
this article. We also include some preliminary characterization of an auxin-autotrophic cell line 2B-13 derived from the BY-2
cell line. Thus, the repertoire using the BY-2 cell line in plant sciences is expanding. The importance of this cell line
could increase further as the expressed sequence tag (EST) database of the cell line became publicly available recently. The
scientific achievements on this cell line that have been accumulated in recent years are being compiled and will be published
as the 53rd volume in the monograph series of Biotechnology in Agriculture and Forestry (Nagata et al., 2004); readers are referred to this source. 相似文献

The PC12 pheochromocytoma cell line has been a favorite model system for cell and neurobiologists, but has proven relatively refractory to standard DNA transfection methods. We have found that the cationic lipid "lipofectin" provides a simple, gentle, and nontoxic procedure that vastly improves transfection efficiencies in PC12 cells. Transient expression of chloramphenicol acetyl transferase (CAT) driven by a Rous sarcoma virus long terminal repeat (LTR) is much more efficient using lipofectin when compared with calcium phosphate as a transfection procedure. Additionally, transient transfection of nerve growth factor (NGF)-differentiated PC12 cells proceeds with equal efficiency relative to naive, uninduced cells. Using the lipofectin procedure, the frequency of stable transfection is 100-fold higher than that reported with standard calcium phosphate precipitation protocols. To examine the effectiveness of different promoters for efficient expression of heterologous DNA in PC12 cells, three different promoter-bearing constructs were utilized. Each construct contains a different promoter sequence upstream from a chicken calsequestrin cDNA. A human cytomegalovirus (CMV) immediate early promoter construct produced the highest level of expression, followed by a human beta-actin promoter construct. Expression from a mouse Moloney sarcoma virus LTR construct could not be detected. These results overcome the previous transfection problems of low efficiency and low viability that have plagued many PC12 cell investigations. 相似文献

Cells of the rat neuronal line, PC12, adhere well to substrates coated with laminin and type IV collagen, but attach poorly to fibronectin. Adhesion and neurite extension in response to these extracellular matrix proteins are inhibited by Fab fragments of an antiserum (anti-ECMR) that recognizes PC12 cell surface integrin subunits of Mr 120,000, 140,000, and 180,000 (Tomaselli, K. J., C. H. Damsky, and L. F. Reichardt. 1987. J. Cell Biol. 105:2347-2358). Here we extend our study of integrin structure and function in PC12 cells using integrin subunit-specific antibodies prepared against synthetic peptides corresponding to the cytoplasmic domains of the human integrin beta 1 and the fibronectin receptor alpha (alpha FN) subunits. Anti-integrin beta 1 immunoprecipitated a 120-kD beta 1 subunit and two noncovalently associated integrin alpha subunits of 140 and 180 kD from detergent extracts of surface-labeled PC12 cells. Immunodepletion studies using anti-integrin beta 1 demonstrated that these two putative alpha/beta heterodimers are identical to those recognized by the adhesion-perturbing ECMR antiserum. Anti-alpha FN immunoprecipitated fibronectin receptor heterodimers in human and rat fibroblastic cells, but not in PC12 cells. Thus, low levels of expression of the integrin alpha FN subunit can explain the poor attachment of PC12 cells to FN. The PC12 cell integrins were purified using a combination of lectin and ECMR antibody affinity chromatography. The purified integrins: (a) completely neutralize the ability of the anti-ECMR serum to inhibit PC12 cell adhesion to laminin and collagen IV; (b) have hydrodynamic properties that are very similar to those of previously characterized integrin alpha/beta heterodimeric receptors for ECM proteins; and (c) can be incorporated into phosphatidylcholine vesicles that then bind specifically to substrates coated with laminin or collagen IV but not fibronectin. Thus, the ligand-binding specificity of the liposomes containing the purified PC12 integrins closely parallels the substrate-binding preference of intact PC12 cells. These results demonstrate that mammalian integrins purified from a neuronal cell line can, when incorporated into lipid vesicles, function as receptors for laminin and type IV collagen. 相似文献

Administration of L-DOPA is commonly used to treat Parkinson's disease, yet controversy continues as to whether the dopamine arising from it aggravates neuronal loss. Several authors have reported cytotoxic effects of L-DOPA and dopamine on cultured cells, but others have not. In this report using the rat pheochromocytoma cell line PC12 and the M14 human melanoma cell line we show that dopamine-mediated cell death is not specific for neuronal cells. Moreover, our data show that both L-DOPA and dopamine interact with commonly used cell culture media, undergoing oxidation to generate hydrogen peroxide and dopamine semiquinones/quinones. Catalase and reduced glutathione could protect against cytotoxicity. These results suggest that caution needs to be employed when using cell culture studies to predict effects of L-DOPA and/or dopamine in vivo because of the extracellular generation of reactive species in the culture media. 相似文献

Endooligopeptidase A is a putative neuropeptide-metabolizing enzyme. It converts small enkephalin-containing peptides into the corresponding enkephalins and inactivates biopeptides such as bradykinin and neurotensin in vitro. We investigated the presence of endooligopeptidase A in PC12 cells. This cell line was derived from a rat pheochromocytoma tumor and resembles fetal chromaffin cell. Depending on the supplements added to the cell culture, this cell line can be differentiated into mature chromaffin cell or sympathetic neuron-like cell. Endooligopeptidase A activity was measured in soluble cellular extracts using a specific fluorogenic substrate QF-ERP7. The PC12 endooligopeptidase A-like activity shared similar but not identical biochemical properties with rabbit brain endooligopeptidase A. Similarly to rabbit brain endooligopeptidase A, the PC12 endooligopeptidase A-like activity was enhanced by DTT, totally inhibited by DTNB and 1-10 Phenanthroline, partially inhibited by cFP-AAF-pAb, and not affected by PMSF. Furthermore, the PC12 endooligopeptidase A-like activity displayed identical elution profile as rabbit brain endooligopeptidase A in gel filtration and anion-exchange chromatography. In addition, an antiserum raised against rabbit brain endooligopeptidase A cross-reacted with a 71 kDa component from PC12 cell extracts in Western blotting and was also able to partially neutralize the PC12 endooligopeptidase A-like activity. Treatment of PC12 cells with basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF), a neurotrophic factor for this cell line, did not modify the specific activity of this enzyme. However, cAMP analogs decreased the specific activity of the enzyme. These results indicate the presence of an endooligopeptidase A-like activity in PC12 cells which is modulated by cAMP but not by bFGF. 相似文献

Alterations in glycolipid composition as well as glycosyltransferase activities during cellular differentiation and growth have been well documented. However, the underlying mechanisms for the regulation of glycolipid expression remain obscure. One of the major obstacles has been the lack of a well defined model system for studying these phenomena. We have chosen PC 12 pheochrom-ocytoma cells as a model because (a) the properties of these cells have been well characterized, and (b) they respond to nerve growth factor (NGF) by differentiating into sympathetic-like neurons and are amenable to well-controlled experimentation. Thus, PC12 cells represent a suitable model for studying changes in glycolipid metabolism in relation to cellular differentiation. We have previously shown that subcloned PC12 cells accumulate a unique series of globo-series neutral glycolipids which are not expressed in parental PC12 cells. This unusual change in glycolipid distribution is accompanied by changes in the activities of specific glycosyltransferases involved in their synthesis and is correlated with neuritogenesis and/or cellular differentiation in this cell line. We have further demonstrated that changes in the glycosyltransferase activities may be modulated by the phosphorylation states of the cells via protein kinase systems. We conclude that these unique globo-series glycolipids may play a functional role in the initiation and/or maintenance of neurite outgrowth in PC12 cells. 相似文献

A stable variant of the PC12 cell line (PC12.4) has been isolated on the basis of its cell adhesive properties and morphological characteristics. Cells from the PC12.4 subline differ from the parental cell line in that they readily adhere to untreated plastic surfaces and grow individually rather than aggregated in large clusters. When compared to the PC12.1 cell line (original phenotype), PC12.4 cells were found to have a more rapid growth rate (24 h vs. 40 h doubling time) and higher production of lactate but lower glucose metabolism as judged by the accumulation of 3H-2-deoxyglucose. Western blot analyses also revealed differences between PC12.1 and PC12.4 cells with respect to the expression of glucose transporters (GLUTs) and the subcellular distribution of the heat shock protein (Hsp) Hsp60. We have reported here that PC12.4 cells were far more sensitive to growth inhibition by ethanol when compared with PC12.1 cells and appeared to be more dependent upon glutamine and serum for cell growth. The cytostatic effects of ethanol were most pronounced when the cells were cultured in medium with low concentrations of serum and glutamine. Thus, there appears to be an interplay between energy metabolism in the cell and the response to ethanol. J Cell Physiol 178:93–101, 1999. © 1999 Wiley-Liss, Inc. 相似文献

It has recently been proposed that synaptotagmin (Syt) VII functions as a plasma membrane Ca2+ sensor for dense-core vesicle exocytosis in PC12 cells based on the results of transient overexpression studies using green fluorescent protein (GFP)-tagged Syt VII; however, the precise subcellular localization of Syt VII is still a matter of controversy (plasma membrane versus secretory granules). In this study we established a PC12 cell line "stably expressing" the Syt VII-GFP molecule and demonstrated by immunocytochemical and immunoelectron microscopic analyses that the Syt VII-GFP protein is localized on dense-core vesicles as well as in other intracellular membranous structures, such as the trans-Golgi network and lysosomes. Syt VII-GFP forms a complex with endogenous Syts I and IX, but not with Syt IV, and it colocalize well with Syts I and IX in the cellular processes (where dense-core vesicles are accumulated) in the PC12 cell line. We further demonstrated by an N-terminal antibody-uptake experiment that Syt VII-GFP-containing dense-core vesicles undergo Ca2+ -dependent exocytosis, the same as endogenous Syt IX-containing vesicles. Moreover, silencing of Syt VII-GFP with specific small interfering RNA dramatically reduced high KCl-dependent neuropeptide Y secretion from the stable PC12 cell line (approximately 60% of the control cells), whereas the same small interfering RNA had little effect on neuropeptide Y secretion from the wild-type PC12 cells (approximately 85-90% of the control cells), indicating that the level of endogenous expression of Syt VII molecules must be low. Our results indicate that the targeting of Syt VII-GFP molecules to specific membrane compartment(s) is affected by the transfection method (transient expression versus stable expression) and suggested that Syt VII molecule on dense-core vesicles functions as a vesicular Ca2+ sensor for exocytosis in endocrine cells. 相似文献

Microsomal glutathione-S-transferase 1 (Mgst1) plays a specific role in protection of cells against oxidative stress. In this study, we assayed the effect of Mgst1 downregulation on cells behavior using differentiated PC12 line, a widely accepted neuronal model system. We have developed stable transfected cells with downregulated Mgst1 (PC12_M), which were differentiated with 1 mM dibutyryl-cAMP (db-cAMP). Mgst1 reduction induced necrosis, decreased ATP amount, and increased thiobarbituric acid reacting substances (TBARS) content. However, in PC12_M cell population, we detected more intensive neuritogenesis than that in mock-transfected cells. Interestingly, total glutathione as well as GSH level were significantly higher than those in control PC12 line. Real-time PCR and Western blot analyses showed elevated expression of enzymes involved in glutathione metabolism—a rate-limiting γ-glutamylcysteine ligase and glutathione reductase. The present study shows for the first time that under stress conditions induced by Mgst1 downregulation, a rescue pathway can be activated and thereby enables differentiated PC12 cells to survive. Since Mgst1expression was reported to decline with age, our results could represent a putative adaptive process during aging. It could also be an early mechanism protecting neuronal cells against some neurodegenerative insults. 相似文献

A biological role of the carbohydrate moieties of laminin 总被引:8,自引:0,他引:8
The ways in which the carbohydrate moieties of laminin affect its cellular interactions have been examined by two different experimental approaches. In one approach, we used lectins in order to block specific carbohydrates on laminin which previously had been dried onto a plastic surface. We found that wheat germ agglutinin and Griffonia simplicifolia agglutinin I blocked the binding of the neuron-like rat pheochromocytoma cell line PC12. However, when concanavalin A was used cell binding was unaffected but neurite outgrowth was prevented, compared to controls, over a 24-h period. In the second approach we used unglycosylated laminin as a substratum on the plastic surface. We have developed a method for the purification of unglycosylated laminin from tunicamycin treated cultures of a mouse embryonal carcinoma derived cell line, M1536 B3, and have partially characterized the purified material. A mixture of unglycosylated and glycosylated laminin was selectively purified from the M1536 B3 cell lysate by an anti-EHS laminin monoclonal antibody immunoaffinity column. The unglycosylated laminin was separated from glycosylated laminin using G. simplicifolia lectin affinity chromatography. The lectins, wheat germ agglutinin, G. simplicifolia agglutinin I, and concanavalin A, did not bind to any of the subunits of unglycosylated laminin in Western blots. The unglycosylated laminin migrated as a single band in agarose-gel electrophoresis under nonreducing conditions indicating that it is a fully assembled and disulfide bonded molecule. Circular dichroism studies showed no differences between glycosylated and unglycosylated laminin, indicating similar molecular conformations. Western blots using antibodies specific for the A, B1, and B2 chains of laminin showed that unglycosylated laminin contained each of these subunits. We then performed cell binding and spreading or neurite outgrowth assays using unglycosylated laminin. A mouse melanoma cell line, B16 F1, bound to this laminin in the same numbers as to the control glycosylated laminin, but cell spreading was minimal. When this unglycosylated laminin was used as a substrate for PC12 cells neurite outgrowth was impaired; no effect was noted on the number of cells bound, compared to glycosylated laminin. We conclude from these results that once cells become bound to laminin the carbohydrate residues of that glycoprotein must be available to enable the cells to spread or to extend neurite processes. 相似文献
