Increased choline kinase activity in the rat superior cervical ganglion after axonal injury.

Abstract:

:The activity of choline kinase (CK) was examined in the rat superior cervical ganglion (SCG) during development and following postganglionic axotomy. The highest specific enzyme activity (nmol phosphorylcholine/mg protein/h) 52 +/- 8, is observed 5 d before birth, then it rapidly decreases by about 50%, reaching at the day of birth levels observed in the ganglion throughout life. During development the total enzyme activity per ganglion is increased steadily until it reaches a 5-fold increase which parallels the increase in protein content. Following axotomy the enzyme activity per ganglion is rapidly increased by about 2-fold between 1 and 5 d postoperative and then gradually decreases reaching control levels at 30 d. The transient increase in enzyme activity parallels the increase in protein content of the axotomized ganglia. The peak increase in enzyme activity coincides with the peak chromatolytic response of the axotomized ganglion. We conclude that choline kinase activity is transiently increased within neurons after axonal injury, and that this event represents an effort of the nerve cell body to enhance its phosphatidylcholine biosynthesis essential for new membrane synthesis during the regeneration of the cut axon.
