    Notes: Abstract: The effect of inhibition and down-regulation of protein kinase C (PKC) subtypes α, ε, and ζ on noradrenaline (NA) secretion from human SH-SY5Y neuroblastoma cells was investigated. The PKC inhibitor Ro 31-7549 inhibited carbachol-evoked NA release (IC50 0.6 µM) but not 100 mM K+-evoked release. In addition, Ro 31-7549 inhibited the enhancement of carbachol- and K+-evoked release after pretreatment with 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol 13-acetate (TPA; 100 nM) for 8 min, with IC50 values of 0.7 and 2.4 µM, respectively. Immunoblotting studies showed that prolonged exposure (48 h) of SH-SY5Y cells to phorbol 12,13-dibutyrate (PDBu) or bryostatin-1 caused down-regulation of PKC-α and PKC-ε but not PKC-ζ. Under these conditions, the acute TPA enhancement of NA release was inhibited. Moreover, the inhibition of TPA-enhanced secretion was also apparent after only 2-h exposure to either PDBu or bryostatin-1, conditions that caused down-regulation of PKC-α, but not PKC-ε or ζ. The PKC inhibitor Gö-6976 (2 µM), which has been shown to inhibit selectively PKC-α and β in vitro, also inhibited the TPA enhancement of carbachol- and K+-evoked NA release by 〉50%. These data suggest that in SH-SY5Y cells, the ability of TPA to enhance carbachol- and K+-evoked NA secretion is due to activation of PKC-\ga.

    Notes: Abstract: The aim of this study was to investigate the mechanism by which short-term pretreatment with the phorbol ester 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol 13-acetate (TPA; 100 nM) enhances noradrenaline (NA) release from the human neuroblastoma cell line SH-SY5Y. Subcellular fractionation and immunocytochemical studies demonstrated that an 8-min TPA treatment caused translocation of the α-subtype of protein kinase C (PKC) from the cytosol to the plasma membrane. In contrast, TPA altered the distribution of PKC-ε from cytosolic and membrane-associated to cytoskeleton- and membrane-associated TPA had no effect on the cytosolic location of PKC-ζ. Subcellular fractionation studies also showed that the myristoylated alanine-rich C-kinase substrate (MARCKS), a major neuronal PKC substrate that has been implicated in the mechanism of neurotransmitter release, translocated from membranes to cytosol in response to an 8-min TPA treatment. Under these conditions the level of phosphorylation of MARCKS increased threefold. The ability of TPA to enhance NA release and to cause the translocation and phosphorylation of MARCKS was inhibited by the PKC inhibitor Ro 31-8220 (10 µM). Selective down-regulation of PKC subtypes by prolonged exposure to phorbol 12,13-dibutyrate (100 nM) attenuated the TPA-induced enhancement of NA release and the translocation of MARCKS over an interval similar to that of down-regulation of PKC-α (but not -ε or -ζ). Thus, we have demonstrated a strong correlation between the translocation of MARCKS and the enhancement of NA release from SH-SY5Y cells due to the TPA-induced activation of PKC-α.

    Notes: Abstract: Western blot analysis showed that the human neuroblastoma SH-SY5Y expresses the proteins synaptotagmin I, synaptobrevin, synapsin I, rab3a, syntaxin, SNAP-25, NSF, α-SNAP, and munc-18, which have been implicated in the movement, docking, and fusion of vesicles during exocytosis from other neuroendocrine cells. The subcellular localization of secretogranins I and II, synaptotagmin I, neuropeptide Y, rab3a, synaptobrevin, synaptophysin, and syntaxin was investigated by immunofluorescence microscopy and revealed punctate staining patterns characteristic of secretory vesicles. The comigration of noradrenaline, secretogranin II, and dopamine-β-hydroxylase on sucrose-D2O gradient fractions indicates the presence of a population of noradrenaline-containing large dense-cored vesicles (LDCVs). In addition, a lighter vesicle population is also present that does not appear to be noradrenergic and contains a 48-kDa synaptophysin antigen absent from the large dense-cored vesicles. Immunocytochemical experiments show that not all of the vesicles that express synaptotagmin I contain secretogranin II. Thus, our studies suggest that two types of vesicle are present in SH-SY5Y cells, one of which, the LDCVs, contains noradrenaline. These findings confirm our previous studies suggesting that depolarization-evoked release of noradrenaline from SH-SY5Y occurs by LDCV exocytosis. This enhances the value of SH-SY5Y as a cell line in which to study the mechanism by which noradrenaline release is regulated.

    Notes: Replacement of Ca2+ with Ba2+ in HEPES-buffered saline stimulated [3H]noradrenalin release in the human neuroblastoma clone SH-SY5Y by up to 20% of the cell content in the absence of other secretory stimuli. The Ba2+-evoked release was inhibited by 85% by 3 μM tetrodotoxin and 95% by 5 μM nifedipine. Ba2+ also increased the potency of K+-evoked release of [3H]noradrenalin, as maximal release was observed with 60 mM K+ compared with the 100 mM K+ necessary to achieve maximal release in the presence of Ca2+. In contrast, replacing Ca2+ with Ba2+ had little effect on carbachol- and bradykinin-evoked release of [3H]noradrenalin. No evidence was obtained from studies on changes in [Ca2+]i (in response to 100 pM carbachol) using fura-2 that Ba2+ could enter intracellular stores in SH-SY5Y cells. Whole-cell patch-clamp studies showed that Ba2+ depolarizes SH-SY5Y cells as well as enhancing inward Ca2+ channel currents and shifting their voltage dependence to more negative values. These results are discussed in terms of the hypothesis that Ba2+ blocks K+ channels, leading to depolarization followed by opening of voltage-sensitive Na+ channels. This in turn opens voltage-sensitive L-type Ca2+ channels, which are coupled to the release of [3H]noradrenalin in SH-SY5Y cells.
