Disease relevance of PC12 Cells

 

Psychiatry related information on PC12 Cells

  • Recent studies have identified the Alzheimer's disease amyloid beta/A4 protein precursor (APP) as a trophic and/or tropic protein on several types of cells, including fibroblasts, primary culture neurons, PC12 cells, and B103 neuron-like cells [6].
  • This investigation examined if lithium, the primary therapeutic treatment for bipolar affective disorder, modulated the levels of selected signal transduction proteins in PC12 cells [7].
  • Our findings suggest that sigma2 receptors are coupled to the DAT via a Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II transduction system in PC12 cells, and that sigma2 receptor antagonists might be useful in the treatment of drug abuse by blocking elevation of DA levels via reversal of the DAT [8].
  • Interestingly, however, in the nerve treated with tumor necrosis factor-alpha (but not in the nerve treated with colony stimulating factor-1) this increase was accompanied by an increased permissiveness of the nerve to neuronal adhesion, which we examined in vitro using longitudinal sections of the nerve on which PC12 cells were seeded [9].

Chemical compound and disease context of PC12 Cells

 

Biological context of PC12 Cells

  • Treatment of PC12 cells with nerve growth factor (NGF) induces a rapid increase in tyrosine phosphorylation of multiple cellular proteins [20].
  • We report that in PC12 cells, expression of a dominant inhibitory mutant of ras, c-Ha-ras(Asn-17), antagonizes growth factor- and phorbol ester-induced activation of the erk-encoded family of MAP kinases, the 85-92 kd RSKs, and the kinase(s) responsible for hyperphosphorylation of the proto-oncogene product Raf-1 [21].
  • Transfection of PC12 cells with the amino-terminal domains of Rim greatly enhances regulated exocytosis in a Rab3-dependent manner [22].
  • In vivo, dominant negative Ras mutant N17 inhibits growth factor induced production of 3' phosphorylated phosphoinositides in PC12 cells, and transfection of Ras, but not Raf, into COS cells results in a large elevation in the level of these lipids [23].
  • Similar cAMP induction was obtained with the transfected chromogranin A promoter in PC12 cells, and abolition of the CRE site (by deletion or point mutation) eliminated the induction [24].
 

Anatomical context of PC12 Cells

 

Associations of PC12 Cells with chemical compounds

  • PC12 cells mutagenized with ethyl methanesulfonate were cultured in the presence of NGF, causing normal cells to cease proliferation and allowing the isolation of cell clones which do not show growth inhibition by NGF [30].
  • We have recently shown that highly purified BWSTx stimulates secretion from PC12 cells of previously taken up radioactive dopamine (DA) and noradrenaline (NA) (ref. 14 and manuscript in preparation) [31].
  • Functional acetylcholine receptor in PC12 cells reacts with a monoclonal antibody to brain nicotinic receptors [32].
  • We also show that at low concentrations FK506 and cyclosporin A enhance the phosphorylation of endogenous protein substrates in brain tissue and in intact PC12 cells, indicating that these drugs may inhibit phosphatase activity by interacting with the immunophilin-calcineurin complexes [33].
  • A functional consequence of this interaction was revealed by measuring a PAF-elicited, Ca2+-dependent secretion of adenosine triphosphate from PC12 cells [34].
 

Gene context of PC12 Cells

 

Analytical, diagnostic and therapeutic context of PC12 Cells

  • In addition, PC12 cells expressing Wnt-1 (PC12/Wnt-1) fail to extend neurites after treatment with NGF, despite the presence and activation of high affinity NGF receptors encoded by the trk gene and the induction of early response genes [40].
  • Antibodies directed against recombinant VGF8a-beta-galactosidase fusion proteins were used for immunofluorescent staining of the protein in PC12 cells as well as for its localization, by Western blot analysis, in subfractions of cell homogenates [41].
  • Immunoprecipitation from particulate and cytosolic fractions of PC12 cells confirmed that compactin blocks p21ras membrane association: p21ras is confined to the cytosol fraction [42].
  • To study microtubule (MT) dynamics in nerve cells, we microinjected biotin-labeled tubulin into the cell body of chemically fused and differentiated PC12 cells and performed the immunofluorescence or immunogold procedure using an anti-biotin antibody followed by secondary antibodies coupled to fluorescent dye or colloidal gold [43].
  • Coculture of these cells with C2 cells results in the clustering of N-CAM at heterologous contacts between C2 cells and NRK, CHO, or PC12 cells, but not between C2 cells and L929 cells [44].
