Regulation of extracellular signal-regulated kinase phosphorylation in cultured rat striatal neurons
چکیده انگلیسی

Recent studies demonstrate that activation of Ca2+-permeable N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptors upregulates phosphorylation of mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs) in heterologous cells and neurons. In cultured rat striatal neurons, the present work systematically evaluated the role of a number of protein kinases in forming a signaling cascade transducing NMDA receptor signals to MAPKs. It was found that a brief NMDA application consistently induced rapid and transient phosphorylation of the extracellular signal-regulated kinase 1/2 (ERK1/2), a best characterized subclass of MAPKs. This ERK1/2 phosphorylation was resistant to the inhibition of protein kinase C, p38 MAPK, cyclin-dependent kinase 5, receptor tyrosine kinase (epidermal growth factor receptors), or non-receptor tyrosine kinases (including Src) by their selective inhibitors. However, the increase in ERK1/2 phosphorylation was partially blocked by a protein kinase A (PKA) inhibitor. The inhibitors for Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase (CaMK) or phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3-kinase) completely blocked the NMDA-stimulated ERK1/2 phosphorylation. In an attempt to characterize the sequential role of CaMK and PI3-kinase, we found that NMDA increased PI3-kinase phosphorylation on Tyr508, which kinetically corresponded to the ERK1/2 phosphorylation and was blocked by the CaMK inhibitor. These results indicate that the protein kinases are differentially involved in linking NMDA receptors to ERK1/2 in striatal neurons.
