Brain Res. Dev. Brain Res. 122, 97-109. Inhibition of mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase blocks proliferation of neural progenitor cells. 2000

Learish, R.D., Bruss, M.D., and Haak-Frendscho, M.

Notes: A primary cell line from rat subventricular zone which remains undifferentiated over time was developed as a model for MAPK activation. Cell were stimulated with 20 ng/ml bFGF and 20 ng/ml EGF (Promega) to activate MAPK. The MAPK pathway was inhibited with either U0126 (Promega) or  PD98059. Immunocytochemistry was performed with the Anti-ERK 1/2 pAb (1:100 dilution) to detect both active and inactive forms of MAPK proteins and with the Anti-ACTIVE™ MAPK pAb (1:100 dilution) to specifically detect the dually phosphorylated, active forms of MAPK. Cells were also immunostained with the neuron specific marker Anti-III-tubulin mAb (0.5 µg/ml). Cell proliferation was monitored with the CellTiter 96® AQueous One Solution Cell Proliferation Assay System. Apoptosis within the cell population was monitored using the DeadEnd™ Fluorometric TUNEL System. (2391)

Tao, J., Mallat, A., Gallois, C., Belmadani, S., Mery, P-F., Nhiew, J. T-V., Pavoine, C., Lotersztajn, S.

Notes: In this study, the authors document a hepatic effect for the C-type natriuretic peptide, CNP. Natriuretic peptide family members include atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) and brain natriuretic peptide. These peptides are implicated in maintaining blood pressure, and they also exert natriuretic and diuretic effects. (2530)

J. Biol. Chem. 6, 150-155. Secretory group IIA phospholipase A2 generates anti-apoptotic survival signals in kidney fibroblasts 1999

Zhang, Y., Lemasters, J., Herman, B.

Notes: This paper investigated the role of  group IIA phospholipase A2 (PLA2) in apoptosis and sought to identify its subcellular target. Baby hamster kidney fibroblasts (BHK) were transfected with wildtype or mutant rat PLA2, subjected to growth factor deprivation, and were assayed for survival.  Cells expressing either no PLA2 or mutant PLA2 underwent dramatic apoptosis; cells expressing the wildtype PLA2 showed resistance to apoptosis. The CellTiter 96® AQueous One Solution Cell Proliferation Assay was used to determine cell viability of the BHK cells. (2481)
