Abstract:
:Secretion of neurotrophins is critical for the delivery of neurotrophic support. Brain-derived neurotrophic factor is targeted to a regulated secretory pathway in neurons as well as the neurosecretory AtT-20 cells. Here, we show that pertussis toxin, which inactivates Gi and Go G proteins, inhibits up to 50% of the regulated release of brain derived neurotrophic factor by AtT-20 cells. To determine whether pertussis toxin-sensitive G proteins may regulate brain-derived neurotrophic factor release in vivo, the effect of intraocular pertussis toxin was assessed on the isthmo-optic nucleus in the developing chick visual system. The isthmo-optic nucleus projects axons from the midbrain to innervate retinal amacrine cells and depends on target-derived brain-derived neurotrophic factor between embryonic days 13 and 17 (E13-17). During this period approximately 50% of isthmo-optic neurons are eliminated by programmed cell death. Intraocular pertussis toxin administered at E13 increased cell death of isthmo-optic neurons by 42%, whereas injections at E19 had no effect. Co-injection of brain-derived neurotrophic factor with pertussis toxin rescued approximately 50% of isthmo-optic neurons from enhanced cell death, although overall retinal brain derived neurotrophic factor protein levels were unaffected by pertussis toxin. Retrograde transport of exogenous 125I-labeled brain derived neurotrophic factor from the retina to the midbrain was increased by co-administration of pertussis toxin, possibly owing to diminished competition from endogenously released brain-derived neurotrophic factors for the receptors that mediate retrograde axonal transport. These data suggest that the release of a major fraction of brain-derived neurotrophic factor in the secretory pathway in vitro and in vivo is regulated by the activity of pertussis toxin-sensitive G proteins.
