Dystrophin Dp71 is required for neurite outgrowth in PC12 cells.
To determine the role of Dp71 in neuronal cells, we generated PC12 cell lines in which Dp71 protein levels were controlled by stable transfection with either antisense or sense constructs. Cells expressing the antisense Dp71 RNA (antisense-Dp71 cells) contained reduced amounts of the two endogenous Dp71 isoforms. Antisense-Dp71 cells exhibited a marked suppression of neurite outgrowth upon the ...
متن کاملDystrophin Dp71 in PC12 cell adhesion.
Previously, we reported that PC12 cells with decreased Dp71 expression (antisense-Dp71 cells) display deficient nerve-growth-factor-induced neurite outgrowth. In this study, we show that disturbed neurite outgrowth of antisense-Dp71 cells is accompanied by decreased adhesion activity on laminin, collagen and fibronectin. In wild-type cells, the immunostaining of Dp71 and beta1-integrin overlaps...
متن کاملFibronectin expression during myogenesis
The biosynthesis and localization of fibronectin during chick muscle differentiation are described. This study employed two monoclonal antibodies, one that selectively killed mononucleated cells and one specific for avian fibronectin. These antibodies allowed precise analyses of fibronectin expression in well-defined cultures of myoblasts or myotubes and avoided the complications of exogenous f...
متن کاملDystrophin and Dp71, two products of the DMD gene, show a different pattern of expression during embryonic development in zebrafish
Dystrophin, the protein defective in Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD), plays a critical role in the formation and maintenance of the neuromuscular junction. In addition to dystrophin, activation of internal promoters of the DMD gene leads to the production of several short products. Among these, Dp71, which consists of the C-terminal domain of dystrophin, is the most abundant product of the ge...
متن کاملExpression of Dp71 in Müller glial cells: a comparison with utrophin- and dystrophin-associated proteins.
PURPOSE The abnormal retinal electrophysiology observed in patients with Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) has been attributed to an altered expression of C-terminal products of the dystrophin gene. It has been shown that Dp260 is expressed by photoreceptor cells, whereas Dp71 is present in glial cells. The present study was intended to identify all known members of the dystrophin superfamily a...
