    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: Three annexins-p68, endonexin, and p32-have been isolated from porcine brain using their calcium-dependent affinity for membranes. Large amounts (20-50 mg/kg of tissue) of p68 and p32 can be isolated from cerebrum and cerebellum. The p68 is present as up to 0.3% of total porcine brain protein. The p68 and p32 from porcine brain bind to phosphatidic acid (half-maximal binding at 6 and 34 μM free calcium, respectively) and to phosphatidylserine (8 and 34 μM, respectively). They do not bind to phosphatidylcholine at calcium concentrations up to 1 mM. Two other major proteins (Mr 180,000 and Mr 76,000) were isolated with the annexins in a calcium-dependent manner but do not bind to phospholipids. The 180-kilodalton protein is the heavy chain of clathrin. From immunohistochemical studies, p68 is strongly associated with the plasma membranes of Purkinje cell bodies and dendrites in porcine cerebellum. It is also an intracellular component of Purkinje cells localized to perinuclear structures. Staining of axons in the white matter and granule cell layer was also seen. In contrast, p32 is completely absent from Purkinje cells and their dendrites; it is predominantly located in the molecular layer and in white matter of the cerebellar folds. The distribution of p32 may be consistent with a predominantly glial localization.

    Notes: Abstract: Antisera were raised in guinea pigs to synaptic vesicles purified from the electric organ of Torpedo marmorata. In cholinergic nerve terminals from Torpedo the major antigens identified had Mr 300,000-150,000, 86,000, and 18,000. The Mr 86,000 antigen was conserved between Torpedo and rat, where it is neuron-specific and concentrated in nerve terminals. When rat brain synaptosomes are subfractionated the antigen is associated with synaptic vesicles. The antigen is not found in the cytoskeleton and in the vesicle-free cytosol. Immunohistochemical localization of the antigen in rat shows it to be associated with synapses in diaphragm, cerebellum, hippocampus, and cerebral cortex. The staining pattern of the antigen indicates that the antigen is not cholinergicspecific. The function of the Mr 86,000 antigen remains to be identified.

    Notes: Abstract: An antiserum specific for cholinergic terminals was used to identify an antigen conserved between Elasmobranchs and mammals. Immunohistochemistry and a cytotoxicity test were used to assay the binding of antibody to mammalian terminals. Torpedo electric organ gangliosides totally abolished antibody binding. The highest inhibitory activity was associated with a single polysialoganglioside band on TLC plates. Neuraminidase altered the migration of the inhibitory activity on TLC plates. Antibody binding was inhibited by ganglioside fractions derived from chicken and mammalian brains. A summary of those tissues in which the antigen has been detected is presented. The possible function of the antigen is discussed.

    Occurrence of Two Types of Secretory Vesicles in the Human Neuroblastoma SH-SY5Y (1997)

    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.

    Activation of Protein Kinase C-α and Translocation of the Myristoylated Alanine-Rich C-Kinase Substrate Correlate with Phorbol Ester-Enhanced Noradrenaline Release from SH-SY5Y Human Neuroblastoma Cells (1997)

    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.

    Characterization of Calelectrin, a Ca2+-Binding Protein Isolated from the Electric Organ of Torpedo marmorata (1985)

    Notes: Abstract: We report a fast (〈 1 day) and efficient (2–3 mg protein/100 g tissue) isolation method for calelectrin, a protein of Mr 34,000 in the electric organ of Torpedo marmorata that binds to membranes in the presence of Ca2+. Purified protein was used to investigate the nature of its interaction with membranes and with Ca2+. Calelectrin binds to liposomes composed of total extractable lipids from the electric organ in a Ca2+-dependent and -specific manner with half-maximal binding between 3 and 7 μM free Ca2+. This binding is totally inhibited by 1 mM mercaptoethanol. It is also shown that calelectrin directly binds Ca2+ in solution by two techniques: at 1 and 10 μM Ca2+ it binds 45Ca2+ as measured by gel permeation chromatography, and it contains saturable Tb3+-binding sites that are Ca2+-displaceable. An investigation of the protein's endogenous fluorescence shows that although it contains both tryptophan and tyrosine, there is no change in the apparent quantum yield as a function of Ca2+. Ca2+-dependent hydrophobic affinity chromatography of the total soluble proteins from Torpedo electric organ shows that Torpedo calelectrin, like calmodulin and mammalian calelectrins, is specifically retained in the presence of Ca2+ and eluted by EGTA. Calelectrin also contains high-affinity sites for hydrophobic fluorescence probes such as N-phenyl-1-naphthylamine, 2-CP-toluidinylnaphthalene-6-sulfonic acid, and 1-anilinonaphthalene-8-sulfonic acid, which again unlike calmodulin, show no changes as a function of Ca2+. We conclude that calelectrin is a Ca2+-binding protein whose binding to the lipid moieties of membranes is regulated by physiological changes in the Ca2+ concentration. This binding must be due to specific mechanisms other than simple exposure of hydrophobic sites.
