Human SH-SY5Y neuroblastoma cells maintain their potential for differentiation and regression in culture conditions. The induction of differentiation could serve as a strategy to inhibit cell proliferation and tumor growth. Previous studies have shown that differentiation of SH-SY5Y cells can be induced by all- trans-retinoic-acid (RA) and cholesterol (CHOL). However, signaling pathways that lead to terminal differentiation of SH-SY5Y cells are still largely unknown. The goal of this study was to examine in the RA and CHOL treated SH-SY5Y cells the additive impacts of estradiol (E 2) and brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) on cell morphology, cell population growth, synaptic vesicle recycling and presence of neurofilaments. The above features indicate a higher level of neuronal differentiation. Our data show that treatment for 10 days in vitro (DIV) with RA alone or when combined with E 2 (RE) or CHOL (RC), but not when combined with BDNF (RB), significantly ( p < 0.01) inhibited the cell population growth. Synaptic vesicle recycling, induced by high-K + depolarization, was significantly increased in all treatments where RA was included (RE, RC, RB, RCB), and when all agents were added together (RCBE). Specifically, our results show for the first time that E 2 treatment can alone increase synaptic vesicle recycling in SH-SY5Y cells. This work contributes to the understanding of the ways to improve suppression of neuroblastoma cells’ population growth by inducing maturation and differentiation. 相似文献

Ataxia telangiectasia (A-T) is an autosomal, recessive disorder mainly characterized by neuronal degeneration. However, the reason for neuronal degeneration in A-T patients is still unclear. ATM (A-T, mutated), the gene mutated in A-T, encodes a 370-kDa protein kinase. We measured the levels of the ATM protein found in differentiated neuron-like rat PC12 cells and differentiated neuron-like human SH-SY5Y cells. We found that, in rat PC12 cells, ATM levels decreased dramatically after differentiation, which is consistent with previous results observed in differentiated mouse neural progenitor cells. In contrast, the levels of ATM were similar before and after differentiation in human SH-SY5Y cells. Using an indirect immunofluorescence assay, we showed that ATM translocates from the nucleus to the cytoplasm in differentiated human SH-SY5Y cells. The translocation of ATM was further verified by subcellular fractionation experiments. The constitutive expression and cytoplasmic translocation of ATM in differentiated SH-SY5Y cells suggest that ATM is important for maintaining the regular function of human neuronal cells. Our results further demonstrated that, in response to insulin, ATM protects differentiated neuron-like SH-SY5Y cells from serum starvation-induced apoptosis. These data provide the first evidence that cytoplasmic ATM promotes survival of human neuronal cells in an insulin-dependent manner. 相似文献

Cyclin-dependent kinase-5 (Cdk5) is required for neuronal survival, but its targets in the apoptotic pathways remain unknown. Here, we show that Cdk5 kinase activity prevents neuronal apoptosis through the upregulation of Bcl-2. Treatment of SH-SY5Y cells with retinoid acid (RA) and brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) generates differentiated neuron-like cells. DNA damage triggers apoptosis in the undifferentiated cells through mitochondrial pathway; however, RA/BDNF treatment results in Bcl-2 upregulation and inhibition of the mitochondrial pathway in the differentiated cells. RA/BDNF treatment activates Cdk5-mediated PI3K/Akt and ERK pathways. Inhibition of Cdk5 inhibits PI3K/Akt and ERK phosphorylation and Bcl-2 expression, and thus sensitizes the differentiated cells to DNA-damage. Inhibition of ERK, but not PI3K/Akt, abrogates Cdk5-medidated Bcl-2 upregulation and the protection of the differentiated cells. This study suggests that ERK-mediated Bcl-2 upregulation contributes to BDNF-induced Cdk5-mediated neuronal survival. 相似文献

Oxidative stress is a common feature in neurodegenerative diseases associated with neuroinflammation, and therefore, has been proposed as a key target for novel therapies for these diseases. Recently, adipose-derived stem cell (ASC)-based cell therapy has emerged as a novel strategy for neuroprotection. In this study, we evaluate the therapeutic role of ASC-conditioned medium (ASC-CM) against H 2O 2-induced neurotoxicity in a new in vitro model of ec23/brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF)-differentiated human SH-SY5Y neuron-like cells (SH-SY5Yd). In the presence of ASC-CM, stressed SH-SY5Yd cells recover normal axonal morphology (with an almost complete absence of H 2O 2-induced axonal beading), electrophysiological features, and cell viability. This beneficial effect of ASC-CM was associated with its antioxidant capacity and the presence of growth factors, namely, BDNF, glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor, and transforming growth factor β1. Moreover, the neuroprotective effect of ASC-CM was very similar to that obtained from treatment with BDNF, an essential factor for SH-SY5Yd cell survival. Importantly, we also found that the addition of the antioxidant agent N-acetyl cysteine to ASC-CM abolished its restorative effect; this was associated with a strong reduction in reactive oxygen species (ROS), in contrast to the moderate decrease in ROS produced by ASC-CM alone. These results suggest that neuronal restorative effect of ASC-CM is associated with not only the release of essential neurotrophic factors, but also the maintenance of an appropriate redox state to preserve neuronal function. 相似文献

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are generated by endonuclease activity of Dicer, which also helps in loading of miRNAs to their target sequences. SH-SY5Y, a human neuroblastoma and a cellular model of neurodevelopment, consistently expresses genes related to neurodegenerative disorders at different biological levels (DNA, RNA, and proteins). Using SH-SY5Y cells, we have studied the role of Dicer and miRNAs in neuronal differentiation and explored involvement of P53, a master regulator of gene expression in differentiation-induced induction of miRNAs. Knocking down Dicer gene induced senescence in differentiating SH-SY5Y cells, which indicate the essential role of Dicer in brain development. Differentiation of SH-SY5Y cells by retinoic acid (RA) or RA + brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) induced dramatic changes in global miRNA expression. Fully differentiated SH-SY5Y cells (5-day RA followed by 3-day BDNF) significantly ( p < 0.05 and atleast >3-fold change) upregulated and downregulated the expression of 77 and 17 miRNAs, respectively. Maximum increase was observed in the expression of miR-193-5p, miR-199a-5p, miR-192, miR-145, miR-28-5p, miR-29b, and miR-222 after RA exposure and miR-193-5p, miR-146a, miR-21, miR-199a-5p, miR-153, miR-29b, and miR-222 after RA + BDNF exposure in SH-SY5Y cells. Exploring the role of P53 in differentiating SH-SY5Y cells, we have observed that induction of miR-222, miR-192, and miR-145 is P53 dependent and expression of miR-193a-5p, miR-199a-5p, miR-146a, miR-21, miR-153, and miR-29b is P53 independent. In conclusion, decreased Dicer level enforces differentiating cells to senescence, and differentiating SH-SY5Y cells needs increased expression of P53 to cope up with changes in protein levels of mature neurons. 相似文献

Abstract: A rapid and simple procedure is presented to obtain nearly pure populations of human neuron-like cells from the SH-SY5Y neuroblastoma cell line. Sequential exposure of SH-SY5Y cells to retinoic acid and brain-derived neurotrophic factor in serum-free medium yields homogeneous populations of cells with neuronal morphology, avoiding the presence of other neural crest derivatives that would normally arise from those cells. Cells are withdrawn from the cell cycle, as shown by 5-bromo-2'-deoxyuridine uptake and retinoblastoma hypophosphorylation. Cell survival is dependent on the continuous presence of brain-derived neurotrophic factor, and removal of this neurotrophin causes apoptotic cell death accompanied by an attempt to reenter the cell cycle. Differentiated cells express neuronal markers, including neurofilaments, neuron-specific enolase, and growth-associated protein-43 as well as neuronal polarity markers such as tau and microtubule-associated protein 2. Moreover, differentiated cultures do not contain glial cells, as could be evidenced after the negative staining for glial fibrillary acidic protein. In conclusion, the protocol presented herein yields homogeneous populations of human neuronal differentiated cells that present many of the characteristics of primary cultures of neurons. This model may be useful to perform large-scale biochemical and molecular studies due to its susceptibility to genetic manipulation and the availability of an unlimited amount of cells. 相似文献

Recently neuronal insulin resistance was suggested playing a role in Alzheimer’s disease. Streptozotocin (STZ) is commonly used to induce impairment in insulin metabolism. In our previous work on undifferentiated SH-SY5Y cells the compound exerted cytotoxicity without altering insulin sensitivity. Nevertheless, differentiation of the cells to a more mature neuron-like phenotype may considerably affect the significance of insulin signaling and its sensitivity to STZ. We aimed at studying the influence of STZ treatment on insulin signaling in SH-SY5Y cells differentiated by retinoic acid (RA). Cytotoxicity of STZ or low serum (LS) condition and protective effect of insulin were compared in RA differentiated SH-SY5Y cells. The effect of insulin and an incretin analogue, exendin-4 on insulin signaling was also examined by assessing glycogen synthase kinase-3 (GSK-3) phosphorylation. STZ was found less cytotoxic in the differentiated cells compared to our previous results in undifferentiated SH-SY5Y cells. The cytoprotective concentration of insulin was similar in the STZ and LS groups. However, the right-shifted concentration–response curve of insulin induced GSK-3 phosphorylation in STZ-treated differentiated cells is suggestive of the development of insulin resistance that was further confirmed by the insulin potentiating effect of exendin-4. Differentiation reduced the sensitivity of SH-SY5Y cells for the non-specific cytotoxicity of STZ and enhanced the relative significance of development of insulin resistance. The differentiated cells thus serve as a better model for studying the role of insulin signaling in neuronal survival. However, direct cytotoxicity of STZ also contributes to the cell death. 相似文献

Oxidative stress and free radical production have been implicated in Alzheimer's disease, where low levels of the antioxidant vitamin C (ascorbate) have been shown to be associated with the disease. In this study, neuroblastoma SH-SY5Y cells were treated with hydrogen peroxide in the presence of ascorbate in order to elucidate the mechanism(s) of protection against oxidative stress afforded by ascorbate. Protein oxidation, glutathione levels, cell viability and the effects on the proteome and its oxidized counterpart were monitored. SH-SY5Y cells treated with ascorbate prior to co-incubation with peroxide showed increased viability in comparison to cells treated with peroxide alone. This dual treatment also caused an increase in protein carbonyl content and a decrease in glutathione levels within the cells. Proteins, extracted from SH-SY5Y cells that were treated with either ascorbate or peroxide alone or with ascorbate prior to peroxide, were separated by two-dimensional gel electrophoresis and analyzed for oxidation. Co-incubation for 24 hours decreased the number of oxidised proteins (e.g. acyl CoA oxidase 3) and induced brain derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) expression. Enhanced expression of BDNF may contribute to the protective effects of ascorbate against oxidative stress in neuronal cells. 相似文献

The paired helical filaments of highly phosphorylated tau protein are the main components of neurofibrillary tangles (NFT) in Alzheimer's disease (AD). Protein kinases including glycogen synthase kinase 3 beta (GSK3beta), cyclin-dependent kinase 5 (Cdk5), and c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) have been implicated in NFT formation making the use of selective kinase inhibitors an attractive treatment possibility in AD. When sequentially treated with retinoic acid (RA) and brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), the human neuroblastoma SH-SY5Y differentiates to neuron-like cells. We found that coincident with morphologically evident neurite outgrowth, both the content and phosphorylation state of tau increased in RA-BDNF differentiated SH-SY5Y cells. Tau phosphorylation increased at all the examined sites ser-199, ser-202, thr-205, ser-396, and ser-404, all of which are hyperphosphorylated in AD brain. We also investigated whether GSK3beta, Cdk5 or JNK was involved in tau phosphorylation in the differentiated SH-SY5Y cells. We found that GSK3beta contributed most and that Cdk5 made a minor contribution. JNK was not involved in tau phosphorylation in this system. The GSK3beta-inhibitor, lithium, inhibited tau phosphorylation in a concentration-dependent manner and with good reproducibility, which enables ranking of substances in this cell model. RA-BDNF differentiated SH-SY5Y cells could serve as a suitable model for studying the mechanisms of tau phosphorylation and for screening potential GSK3beta inhibitors. 相似文献

The study investigated the effect of taurine on cell viability and neurotrophic gene expression in arsenite-treated human neuroblastoma SH-SY5Y cells. Arsenite-induced intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) and interrupted cell cycle in SH-SY5Y cells. In addition, arsenite reduced mitochondria membrane potential (MMP) and decreased neurotrophic gene expressions such as n-myc downstream-regulated gene 4 (NDRG-4), brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) and sirtuin-1 (SIRT-1) in SH-SY5Y cells. In parallel, taurine prevented cell cycle, restored MMP and reduced the intracellular ROS level, and taurine recovered NDRG-4, BDNF and SIRT-1 gene expressions in arsenite-treated SH-SY5Y cells while taurine alone has no effect on these parameters. 相似文献

Cannabinoid (CB) ligands have demonstrated neuroprotective properties. In this study we compared the effects of a diverse set of CB ligands against β amyloid-mediated neuronal toxicity and activated microglial-conditioned media-based neurotoxicity in vitro, and compared this with a capacity to directly alter β amyloid (Aβ) fibril or aggregate formation. Neuroblastoma (SH-SY5Y) cells were exposed to Aβ 1–42 directly or microglial (BV-2 cells) conditioned media activated with lipopolysaccharide (LPS) in the presence of the CB1 receptor-selective agonist ACEA, CB2 receptor-selective agonist JWH-015, phytocannabinoids Δ 9-THC and cannabidiol (CBD), the endocannabinoids 2-arachidonoyl glycerol (2-AG) and anandamide or putative GPR18/GPR55 ligands O-1602 and abnormal-cannabidiol (Abn-CBD). TNF-α and nitrite production was measured in BV-2 cells to compare activation via LPS or albumin with Aβ 1–42. Aβ 1–42 evoked a concentration-dependent loss of cell viability in SH-SY5Y cells but negligible TNF-α and nitrite production in BV-2 cells compared to albumin or LPS. Both albumin and LPS-activated BV-2 conditioned media significantly reduced neuronal cell viability but were directly innocuous to SH-SY5Y cells. Of those CB ligands tested, only 2-AG and CBD were directly protective against Aβ-evoked SH-SY5Y cell viability, whereas JWH-015, THC, CBD, Abn-CBD and O-1602 all protected SH-SY5Y cells from BV-2 conditioned media activated via LPS. While CB ligands variably altered the morphology of Aβ fibrils and aggregates, there was no clear correlation between effects on Aβ morphology and neuroprotective actions. These findings indicate a neuroprotective action of CB ligands via actions at microglial and neuronal cells. 相似文献

Recent research into depression has focused on the involvement of long-term intracellular processes, leading to abnormal neuronal plasticity in brains of depressed patients, and reversed by antidepressant treatment. Given a suggested decrease in noradrenergic transmission in depression, and an antidepressant induced increase in norepinephrine (NE) level, a possible role for NE in mediating alterations in neuronal morphology and plasticity was examined. Human neuroblastoma SH-SY5Y cells treated with 10-5 m NE presented an elongated granule-rich cell-body and increased number of neurites, when compared with non-treated cells. Moreover, cell survival was enhanced in the presence of NE, while proliferation was inhibited. The above effects suggest a role for NE in cell differentiation. Indeed similar effects on cell survival and neurite outgrowth were induced in SH-SY5Y cells by retinoic acid (RA), an established differentiating agent. Finally, NE treatment resulted in a progressive decrease in the pluripotent marker Oct4 and an increase in the neuronal growth cone marker, growth-associated-protein 43 (GAP-43). Alongside these effects, NE-treated cells presented alterations in the expression of 44 genes as observed in a neurobiology cDNA microarray. Among the altered genes, an increase in the expression level of two neurite-outgrowth promoting genes, neural cell adhesion molecule L1 and laminin, was confirmed by RT-PCR. Taken together, the results support a role for NE in processes of synaptic connectivity, and may point to a role for this neurotransmitter in mediating the suggested neuronal plasticity in depression and in antidepressant treatment. 相似文献

Brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) is a well-known neuroprotectant and a potent therapeutic candidate for neurodegenerative diseases. However, there are several clinical concerns about its therapeutic applications. In the current study, we designed and developed BDNF-mimicking small peptides as an alternative to circumvent these problems. A phage-displayed peptide library was screened using BDNF receptor (neurotrophic tyrosine kinase receptor type2 [NTRK2]) and evaluated by ELISA. The peptide sequences showed similarity to loop2 of BDNF, they were recognized as discontinuous epitopes though. Interestingly, in silico molecular docking showed strong interactions between the peptide three-dimensional models and the surface residues of the NTRK2 protein at the IgC2 domain. A consensus peptide sequence was then synthesized to generate a mimetic construct (named as RNYK). The affinity binding and function of this construct was confirmed by testing against the native structure of NTRK2 in SH-SY5Y cells in vitro using flow-cytometry and MTT assays, respectively. RNYK at 5 ng/mL prevented neuronal degeneration of all- trans-retinoic acid-treated SH-SY5Y with equal efficacy to or even better than BDNF at 50 ng/mL. 相似文献

Human cell lines are often used to investigate cellular pathways relevant for physiological or pathological processes or to evaluate cell toxicity or protection induced by different compounds, including potential drugs. In this study, we analyzed and compared the differentiating activities of three agents (retinoic acid, staurosporine and 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate) on the human neuroblastoma SH-SY5Y and BE(2)-M17 cell lines; the first cell line is largely used in the field of neuroscience, while the second is still poorly characterized. After evaluating their effects in terms of cell proliferation and morphology, we investigated their catecholaminergic properties by assessing the expression profiles of the major genes involved in catecholamine synthesis and storage and the cellular concentrations of the neurotransmitters dopamine and noradrenaline. Our results demonstrate that the two cell lines possess similar abilities to differentiate and acquire a neuron-like morphology. The most evident effects in SH-SY5Y cells were observed in the presence of staurosporine, while in BE(2)-M17 cells, retinoic acid induced the strongest effects. Undifferentiated SH-SY5Y and BE(2)-M17 cells are characterized by the production of both NA and DA, but their levels are considerably higher in BE(2)-M17 cells. Moreover, the NAergic phenotype appears to be more pronounced in SH-SY5Y cells, while BE(2)-M17 cells have a more prominent DAergic phenotype. Finally, the catecholamine concentration strongly increases upon differentiation induced by staurosporine in both cell lines. In conclusion, in this work the catecholaminergic phenotype of the human BE(2)-M17 cell line upon differentiation was characterized for the first time. Our data suggest that SH-SY5Y and BE(2)-M17 represent two alternative cell models for the neuroscience field. 相似文献

Apoptosis is a major mechanism for cell death in the nervous system during development. P2X 7 nucleotide receptors are ionotropic ATP receptors that mediate cell death under pathological conditions. We developed an in vitro protocol to investigate the expression and functional responses of P2X 7 nucleotide receptors during retinoic acid (RA)-induced neuronal differentiation of human SH-SY5Y neuroblastoma cells. Neuronal differentiation was examined measuring cellular growth arrest and neuritic processes elongation. We found that SH-SY5Y cells treated for 5 days with RA under low serum content exhibited a neuron-like phenotype with neurites extending more than twice the length of the cell body and cell growth arrest. Concurrently, we detected the abolishment of intracellular-free calcium mobilization and the down-regulation of P2X 7 nucleotide receptor protein expression that protected differentiated cells from neuronal cell death and reduced caspase-3 cleavage-induced by P2X 7 nucleotide receptor agonist. The role of P2X 7 nucleotide receptors in neuronal death was established by selectively antagonizing the receptor with KN-62 prior to its activation. We assessed the involvement of protein kinases and found that p38 signaling was activated in undifferentiated after nucleotide stimulation, but abolished by the differentiating RA pretreatment. Importantly, P2X 7 receptor-induced caspase-3 cleavage was blocked by the p38 protein kinase specific inhibitor PD169316. Taken together, our results suggest that RA treatment of human SH-SY5Y cells leads to decreased P2X 7 nucleotide receptor protein expression thus protecting differentiated cells from extracellular nucleotide-induced neuronal death, and p38 signaling pathway is critically involved in this protection of RA-differentiated cells. 相似文献

Varicella-zoster virus (VZV) is a highly species-specific herpesvirus that targets sensory ganglionic neurons. This species specificity has limited the study of many aspects of VZV pathogenesis, including neuronal infection. We report development of a highly efficient neuroblastoma cell model to study productive VZV infection of neuronal cells. We show that differentiation of SH-SY5Y neuroblastoma cells yields a homogenous population of neuron-like cells that are permissive to the full VZV replicative cycle. These cells supported productive infection by both laboratory and clinical VZV isolates, including the live varicella vaccine. This model may enable rapid identification of genetic determinants facilitating VZV neurotropism. 相似文献
