Concentration-dependent regulation of neuronal gene expression by nerve growth factor
NGF is a neurotrophic protein that promotes the survival, growth, and differentiation of developing sympathetic neurons. To directly determine the effects of different concentrations of NGF on neuronal gene expression, we examined mRNAs encoding the p75 low-affinity NGF (LNGF) receptor, T alpha 1 alpha-tubulin (T alpha 1), and tyrosine hydroxylase (TH) in pure cultures of rat sympathetic neuron...
متن کاملRegulation of nerve growth factor receptor gene expression by nerve growth factor in the developing peripheral nervous system
Nerve growth factor (NGF) is a target-derived neurotrophic protein that promotes the survival and growth of developing sympathetic and sensory neurons. We have examined NGF receptor gene expression in these neurons after NGF administration. Northern blot and in situ hybridization analyses demonstrated that NGF given systemically to neonatal rats increased levels of NGF receptor mRNA in sympathe...

متن کاملCa2+-dependent regulation in neuronal gene expression.
Ca2+ is an important signal-transduction molecule that plays a role in many intracellular signaling pathways. Recent advances have indicated that in neurons, Ca2+-controlled signaling mechanisms cooperate in order to discriminate amongst incoming cellular inputs. Ca2+-dependent transcriptional events can thereby be made selectively responsive to bursts of synaptic activity of specific intensity...
متن کاملRegulation of estrogen receptor- gene expression by epidermal growth factor
The role of epidermal growth factor (EGF) in the regulation of estrogen receptor(ER) gene expression in the human breast cancer cell line MCF-7 was investigated. Treatment of cells with 0·4 ng/ml EGF resulted in an approximately 60% decrease in ERprotein concentration by 6 h and the amount of receptor remained suppressed for 24 h. Ligand binding assays demonstrated that the decrease in ERprotei...
