Abstract: The actions of basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) and ciliary neurotrophic factor (CNTF) on tyrosine hydroxylase (TH) gene expression were studied using IMR-32 neuroblastoma cells. Treatment of these cells with bFGF for 3 days induced the expression of detectable levels of immunoreactive TH protein and TH mRNA. In contrast, CNTF did not affect TH expression unless bFGF was present. In the presence of saturating amounts of bFGF, CNTF increased TH protein and mRNA levels of TH two- to threefold over those found in bFGF-treated cultures. The effects of CNTF on TH expression diminished with increasing culture time, and after 6 days of incubation CNTF no longer enhanced TH levels. The requirement for bFGF as cofactor in the effects of CNTF on TH was specific, as CNTF did not affect TH when it was coadministered with 8-(4-chlorophenylthio)-cyclic AMP, another agent that stimulates TH development in this cell line, and bFGF was not required for CNTF to stimulate the development of choline acetyltransferase. Moreover, cotreatment with bFGF reduced the ability of CNTF to enhance choline acetyltransferase. These results demonstrate that bFGF and CNTF can enhance expression of TH and that bFGF can modify the effects of CNTF on neurotransmitter phenotype. 相似文献

The objective of this study was to determine the effect of age and chronic intracerebral administration of nerve growth factor (NGF) on the activity of the presynaptic cholinergic neuronal markers hemicholinium-sensitive high-affinity choline uptake (HACU) and choline acetyltransferase (ChAT) in the brain of Fisher 344 male rats. In 24-month-old rats, a substantial decrease in ChAT activity (30%) was measured in striatum, and decreases in HACU were found in frontal cortex (28%) and hippocampus (23%) compared with 4-month-old controls. Cholinergic neurons in brain of both young adult and aged rats responded to administration of exogenous NGF by increased expression of both phenotypes. In 4-month-old animals, NGF treatment at 1.2 micron/day resulted in increased activities of both ChAT and HACU in striatum (175 and 170%, respectively), frontal cortex (133 and 125%), and hippocampus (137 and 125%) compared with untreated and vehicle-treated 4-month-old animals; vehicle treatment had no effect on the activity of either marker. In 24-month-old animals treated with NGF for 2 weeks, ChAT activity was increased in striatum (179%), frontal cortex (134%), and hippocampus (119%) compared with 24-month-old control animals. Synaptosomal HACU in 24-month-old rats was increased in striatum (151%) and frontal cortex (128%) after 2 weeks of NGF treatment, but hippocampal HACU was not significantly different from control values.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

Skeletal Muscle Proteins Stimulate Cholinergic Differentiation of Human Neuroblastoma Cells 总被引:2,自引:1,他引:1
Extracts of rat skeletal muscle contain substances that enhance the development of choline acetyltransferase (ChAT) in the cholinergic human neuroblastoma cell line LA-N-2. The ChAT enhancing activity in muscle extract was purified to homogeneity by preparative gel electrophoresis and reverse-phase HPLC. The active factor is biochemically and immunologically identical to ChAT development factor, (CDF), the skeletal muscle factor that enhances ChAT activity in enriched cultures of embryonic rat motoneurons and rescues motoneurons from naturally occurring cell death in vivo. CDF increases the specific ChAT activity of LA-N-2 cells fivefold after 6 days in culture, but does not affect their growth or metabolic activity. Basic fibroblast growth factor also increases ChAT activity in LA-N-2 cells and its effect is additive with that of CDF. In contrast, neither insulin-like growth factor-1, epidermal growth factor, nor nerve growth factor affected the ChAT activity of LA-N-2 cells. Our study demonstrates for the first time that CDF can directly affect the development of neuronal properties in a homogeneous population of cells, and that the effects of CDF are separate from those of other types of trophic factors. 相似文献

When spinal cord cultures from embryonic day 12 rats were cultured at low density, both acidic and basic fibroblast growth factors significantly increased neuronal survival and neurite outgrowth in a dose-dependent manner. The effects of acidic fibroblast growth factor were independent of heparin, in contrast to its mitogenic effects on both NIH3T3 cells and cerebral cortical astrocytes. In high-density cultures, acidic fibroblast growth factor increased choline acetyltransferase activity by 57%, glutamic acid decarboxylase activity by 58%, and aspartate aminotransferase activity by 65%. Basic fibroblast growth factor increased choline acetyltransferase activity by 73% and glutamic acid decarboxylase activity by 200% but decreased aspartate aminotransferase activity by 40%. Growing these cultures in the presence of a mitotic inhibitor did not significantly alter the effect of acidic or basic fibroblast growth factor on these enzyme activities. These results demonstrate that acidic and basic fibroblast growth factors differentially affect neurotransmitter enzyme levels of multiple classes of neurons, rather than having effects on a single neuronal population. 相似文献

Abstract: There is increasing, although largely indirect, evidence that neurotrophic factors not only function as target-derived survival factors for projection neurons, but also act locally to regulate developmental processes. We studied the expression of ciliary neurotrophic factor (CNTF) and the CNTF-specific ligand-binding α-subunit of the CNTF receptor complex (CNTFRα) in the rat retina, a well-defined CNS model system, and CNTF effects on cultured retinal neurons. Both CNTF and CNTFRα (mRNA and protein) are expressed during phases of retinal neurogenesis and differentiation. Retina-specific Müller glia are immunocytochemically identified as the site of CNTF production and CNTFRα-expressing, distinct neuronal cell types as potential CNTF targets. Biological effects on corresponding neurons in culture further support the conclusion that locally supplied CNTF plays a regulatory role in the development of various retinal cell types including ganglion cells and interneurons. 相似文献

Abstract: The present study compares the effects of chronic administration of basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) and nerve growth factor (NGF) on various hippocampal cholinergic parameters in rats with partial unilateral fimbrial transections. Lesions resulted in marked reductions of several presynaptic cholinergic parameters: choline acetyltransferase (ChAT) activity (by 50%), [3H]-acetylcholine ([3H]ACh) synthesis (by 59%), basal and ve-ratridine (1 μM)-evoked [3H]ACh release (by 44 and 57%, respectively), and [3H]vesamicol binding site densities (by 35%). In addition, [3H]AF-DX 116/muscarinic M2 binding site densities were also modestly decreased (by 23%). In contrast, [3H]pirenzepine/muscarinic M1 and [3H]AF-DX 384/muscarinic M2/M4 binding site densities were not altered by the lesions, nor were they affected by any of the treatments. Intracerebroventricular administration of bFGF (10 ng, every other day, for 21 days) partially prevented the lesion-induced deficit in hippocampal ChAT activity, an effect that was not markedly different from that measured in the NGF-treated (1 μg intracerebroventricularly, every other day, for 21 days) rats. In rats treated with a combination of bFGF and NGF, ChAT activity was not different from that in rats treated with the individual factors alone. In contrast, the lesion-induced deficits in the other cholinergic parameters were not attenuated by bFGF treatment, although they were at least partially prevented by NGF administration. To determine whether higher concentrations of bFGF are necessary to affect cholinergic parameters other than hippocampal ChAT activity, rats were treated with 1 μg (every other day, 21 days) of the growth factor. In this group of rats, detrimental effects of bFGF, manifested by an increased death rate (46%), and marked reductions in body weight of the survivors, were observed. In addition, this concentration of bFGF appeared to exacerbate the lesion-induced reduction in [3H]ACh synthesis by hippocampal slices; [3H]ACh synthesis in lesioned hippocampi represented 36 and 52% of that in contralateral unlesioned hippocampi for the bFGF-treated and control groups, respectively. In conclusion, although bFGF administration attenuates the deficit in hippocampal ChAT activity induced by partial fimbrial transections, this does not appear to translate into enhanced functional capacity of the cholinergic terminals. This is clearly in contrast to NGF, which enhances not only hippocampal ChAT activity, but also other parameters indicative of increased function in the cholinergic terminals. 相似文献

Extracellular proteolysis is considered to be required during neuritic outgrowth to control the adhesiveness between the growing neurite membrane and extracellular matrix proteins. In this work, PC12 nerve cells were used to study the modulation of proteolytic activity during neuronal differentiation. PC12 cells were found to contain and release a 70-75-kDa tissue-type plasminogen activator (tPA) and a much less abundant 48-kDa urokinase-type plasminogen activator. A plasminogen activator inhibitor (PAI) activity with molecular sizes of 54 and 58 kDa was also detected in PC12 cell conditioned medium and formed high-molecular-mass complexes with released tPA. Release of PAI activity was dependent on treatment with nerve growth factor (NGF), whereas tPA synthesis and release were under control of a cyclic AMP-dependent mechanism and increased on treatment with dibutyryl-cyclic AMP [(But)2cAMP] or cholera toxin. Simultaneous treatment with NGF and (But)2cAMP resulted in increases of both tPA and PAI release and enhancement of tPA-PAI complex formation. The resulting plasminogen activator activity in conditioned medium was high in (But)2cAMP-treated cultures with short neuritic outgrowth but remained low in NGF- or NGF plus (But)2cAMP-treated cultures, where neurite extension was, respectively, large and very large. These results suggest that excess proteolytic activity may be detrimental to neuritic outgrowth and that not only PAI release but also tPA-PAI complex formation is associated with production of large and stable neuritic outgrowth. This can be understood as an involvement of PAI in the protection against neurite-destabilizing proteolytic activity. 相似文献
