A soluble form of the F3 neuronal cell adhesion molecule promotes neurite outgrowth
The F3 molecule is a member of the immunoglobulin superfamily anchored to membranes by a glycane-phosphatidylinositol, and is predominantly expressed on subsets of axons of the central and peripheral nervous system. In a previous paper (Gennarini, G., P. Durbec, A. Boned, G. Rougon, and C. Goridis. 1991. Neuron. 6:595-606), we have established that F3 fulfills the operational definition of a ce...
متن کاملSeveral extracellular domains of the neural cell adhesion molecule L1 are involved in neurite outgrowth and cell body adhesion.
The neural cell adhesion molecule L1 is a multidomain protein that plays important roles in cell adhesion, migration, and neurite outgrowth. To analyze structure-function relationships of L1 in neurite outgrowth and cell body adhesion, we have expressed and purified a set of different fragments of the extracellular part of this glycoprotein in CHO cells and in Escherichia coli. When neurite out...
متن کاملGanglioside modulation of neural cell adhesion molecule and N-cadherin- dependent neurite outgrowth
We have used monolayers of control 3T3 cells and 3T3 cells expressing transfected human neural cell adhesion molecule (NCAM) or chick N-cadherin as a culture substrate for PC12 cells. NCAM and N-cadherin in the monolayer directly promote neurite outgrowth from PC12 cells via a G-protein-dependent activation of neuronal calcium channels. In the present study we show that ganglioside GM1 does not...
متن کاملSynergic interaction between amyloid precursor protein and neural cell adhesion molecule promotes neurite outgrowth
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is one of the most common neurodegenerative diseases worldwide. The main features of AD are the pathological changes of density and distribution of intracellular neurofibrillary tangles (NFT) and extracellular amyloid plaques. The processing of amyloid beta precursor protein (APP) to β-amyloid peptide (Aβ) is one of the critical events in the pathogenesis of AD. In this...
متن کاملRapid axonal transport of the neural cell adhesion molecule.
The neural cell adhesion molecule (NCAM) is a cell-surface glycoprotein that mediates cell-cell interactions in the nervous system during development. In the present study, we demonstrate that NCAM is axonally transported in 3-d-old chick retinal ganglion cells and that it travels within the fast component of axonal transport (FC). Proteins were radiolabeled in retinal ganglion cell bodies afte...
