Ganglioside 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 کاملPTPμ Regulates N-Cadherin–dependent Neurite Outgrowth
Cell adhesion is critical to the establishment of proper connections in the nervous system. Some receptor-type protein tyrosine phosphatases (RPTPs) have adhesion molecule-like extracellular segments with intracellular tyrosine phosphatase domains that may transduce signals in response to adhesion. PTPmu is a RPTP that mediates cell aggregation and is expressed at high levels in the nervous sys...
متن کاملModifier of cell adhesion regulates N-cadherin-mediated cell-cell adhesion and neurite outgrowth.
Modifier of cell adhesion (MOCA) is a member of the dedicator of cytokinesis 180 family of proteins and is highly expressed in CNS neurons. MOCA is associated with Alzheimer's disease tangles and regulates the accumulation of amyloid precursor protein and beta-amyloid. Here, we report that MOCA modulates cell-cell adhesion and morphology. MOCA increases the accumulation of adherens junction pro...
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 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...
