The neuropeptide PACAP promotes ?‐secretase pathway for processing Alzheimer amyloid precursor protein
Abstract
The neuropeptide pituitary adenylate cyclase-activating polypeptide (PACAP) has neurotrophic as well as anti-apoptotic properties and is involved in learning and memory processes. Its specific G protein-coupled receptor PAC1 is expressed in several central nervous system (CNS) regions, including the hippocampal formation. Here we examined the effect of PAC1 receptor activation on alpha-secretase cleavage of the amyloid precursor protein (APP) and the production of secreted APP (APPsalpha). Stimulation of endogenously expressed PAC1 receptors with PACAP in human neuroblastoma cells increased APPsalpha secretion, which was completely inhibited by the PAC1 receptor specific antagonist PACAP-(6-38). In HEK cells stably overexpressing functional PAC1 receptors, PACAP-27 and PACAP-38 strongly stimulated alpha-secretase cleavage of APP. The PACAP-induced APPsalpha production was dose dependent and saturable. This increase of alpha-secretase activity was completely abolished by hydroxamate-based metalloproteinase inhibitors, including a preferential ADAM 10 inhibitor. By using several specific protein kinase inhibitors, we show that the MAP-kinase pathway [including extracellular-regulated kinase (ERK) 1 and ERK2] and phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase mediate the PACAP-induced alpha-secretase activation. Our findings provide evidence for a role of the neuropeptide PACAP in stimulation of the nonamyloidogenic pathway, which might be related to its neuroprotective properties.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
