K-252a: a specific inhibitor of the action of nerve growth factor on PC 12 cells.
K-252a, a kinase inhibitor isolated from the culture broth of Nocardiopsis sp., selectively inhibits the actions of nerve growth factor (NGF) on PC 12 cells. At a concentration of 200 nM, K-252a prevents neurite generation initiated by NGF, but not neurite generation produced by fibroblast growth factor or outgrowth produced by dibutyryl cAMP. K-252a also inhibits the induction of ornithine dec...
متن کاملTranscriptional and post-transcriptional effects of nerve growth factor on expression of the three neurofilament subunits in PC-12 cells.
Nerve growth factor (NGF) is known to increase the levels of neurofilament proteins in PC-12 pheochromocytoma cells. In this report, we show that the three neurofilament subunits, NF-L, NF-M, and NF-H, are not induced coordinately. NF-H accumulated only after longer term NGF treatment than required for NF-L and NF-M. While NGF treatment resulted in 12- and 14-fold increases in NF-L and NF-M mRN...
متن کاملNeuritogenesis and the nerve growth factor-induced differentiation of PC-12 cells requires annexin II-mediated plasmin generation.
One of the key morphological changes associated with the nerve growth factor (NGF)-induced differentiation of rat adrenal pheochromocytoma (PC-12) cells is the growth of axon-like processes called neurites. A growing body of evidence suggests that this process may be dependent upon plasmin, a serine protease generated from plasminogen (Plg) by either urokinase Plg activator (u-PA) or tissue Plg...
متن کاملInduction of Bone Marrow Stromal Cells into Cholinergic-Like Cells by Nerve Growth Factor
Background: Bone marrow stromal cells (BMSC) are used as a source for cell therapy in different model for neurological disorder such as stroke and spinal cord injury. However, the transdifferentiation of BMSC into cholinergic phenotype requires more investigation. Methods: BMSC were isolated from adult rats, pre-induced with β-mercaptoethanol (BME) and followed by nerve growth factor (NGF) indu...
متن کاملNerve growth factor in human semen: Effect of nerve growth factor on the normozoospermic men during cryopreservation process
Objective(s):Althoughroutinely applied in assisted reproductive technology, human sperm cryopreservation is not a completely successful procedure. Adverse effects of cryopreservation on the fertilization capacity, motility, morphology, and viability of spermatozoa have been proven; cryopreservation has also shown a role in sperm DNA fragmentation and infertility. The post-thaw survival of sperm...
