Abstract:
:Neurons are distinctive in that they are generally considered to be permanently post-mitotic cells. The oncoprotein p53 is a key regulator in neuronal development, notably in cell proliferation and neuronal death. We hypothesize that p53 maintains the post-mitotic characteristic of differentiated neurons. New lines of conditionally immortalized cortical cells were generated to test this hypothesis. Populations of cells were obtained from the neocortices of dual transgenic mice that were null for p53 and expressed a temperature-sensitive SV40 large T antigen. At a permissive temperature (32 degrees C), the cells continued to proliferate and most expressed nestin and proteins associated with glia. At a non-permissive temperature (39 degrees C), the cells expressed cytoskeletal proteins associated with differentiated neurons such as microtubule associated protein 2 and neurofilament 200. Under permissive conditions, both p53(+/-) and p53(-/-) cells exhibited similar cycling behaviors; the length of the cell cycle was 13-15 h and >85% of the cells were actively cycling. In non-permissive conditions, most p53(+/-) cells stopped dividing, whereas the p53(-/-) cells continued to proliferate. The survival of the cells also differed. In the non-permissive conditions, many p53(+/-) cells died following treatment with a neurotoxin (ethanol, 400 mg/dl), whereas the p53(-/-) cells did not. After re-introduction to the permissive conditions, both cell lines expressed neuron-like characteristics, but only the p53(-/-) cells retained their ability to cycle. Therefore, p53-mediated activities appear to be involved in the proliferation, survival, and post-mitotic nature of neuron-like cells.
