Abstract:
:Neurotrophic factors regulate the developmental survival and differentiation of specific neuronal populations. Brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) and neurotrophin-3 (NT-3) are members of the nerve growth factor (NGF) protein family, also known as the neurotrophins. Insights into the different roles of neurotrophins can be gained by studying the expression of their functional receptors. Here we report the development of procedures for their radiolabeling and efficient crosslinking to specific cell-surface receptors. BDNF and NT-3 receptors in cell lines and tissue preparations expressing receptors for the 2 neurotrophins have been identified using this affinity crosslinking procedure. Like NGF, BDNF and NT-3 crosslinked to the low affinity NGF receptor (p75NGFR) on PC12 cells. BDNF and NT-3 also crosslinked to cells expressing p145trkB protein, producing an approximately 160 kD neurotrophin-receptor complex. Crosslinking of the 2 neurotrophins in vivo to specific trk family members in many areas of the central nervous system also produced a 160 kD receptor complex. However, in all brain regions a complex of approx. 100 kD could also be identified, all or most of which represents crosslinking to a truncated form of trkB. The broad distribution of BDNF and NT-3 receptors throughout the CNS suggests that neurotrophins may have yet unrecognized functions on specific neuronal populations. BDNF and NT-3 receptors were also found in brain areas in which the neurotrophins themselves are also synthesized, suggesting that beyond long-range trophic effects, these proteins may also act as autocrine or short-range paracrine regulators.
