Abstract:
:We examined the role of the phosphorylation of calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II (CaMKII) and cyclic AMP-response element binding protein (CREB) in N-methyl-d-aspartate (NMDA)-induced neurotoxicity in the rat retina. Western blot analysis showed early elevation of phosphorylated CaMKII (p-CaMKII) protein levels and subsequential elevation of phosphorylated CREB (p-CREB) protein after NMDA injection. Immunohistochemistry showed that p-CaMKII was colocalized with Thy-1-positive retinal ganglion cells (RGCs) after NMDA injection. The increase in the p-CaMKII protein level was significantly inhibited by the preinjection of CaMKII small interfering RNA (siRNA), whereas negative control siRNA did not affect. Moreover, the increase in the p-CREB protein level after NMDA injection was also prevented by preinjection of CaMKII siRNA. In addition, our morphometric study of neurotracer retrograde labeling and Thy-1-positive cells showed that CaMKII siRNA significantly accelerated NMDA-induced RGC loss. Furthermore, the prevention of CREB binding by CRE decoy oligonucleotide also exacerbated RGC loss. These results suggest that the activation of CaMKII may regulate CREB phosphorylation and that the transient phosphorylation of CaMKII and CREB may be a neuroprotective response against NMDA-induced neurotoxicity.
