Endogenously Produced Neurotrophins Regulate Survival and Differentiation of Cortical Progenitors via Distinct Signaling Pathways
Open accessAbstract
Cultured embryonic cortical progenitor cells will mimic the temporal differentiation pattern observed in vivo, producing neurons first and then glia. Here, we investigated the role of two endogenously produced growth factors, the neurotrophins brain-derived neurotrophic factor and neurotrophin-3 (NT-3), in the early progenitor-to-neuron transition. Cultured cortical progenitors express BDNF and NT-3, as well as their receptors TrkB (tyrosine kinase receptor B) and TrkC. Inhibition of these endogenously expressed neurotrophins using function-blocking antibodies resulted in a marked decrease in the survival of cortical progenitors, accompanied by decreased proliferation and inhibition of neurogenesis. Inhibition of neurotrophin function also suppressed the downstream Trk receptor signaling pathways, PI3-kinase (phosphatidyl inositol-3-kinase) and MEK—ERK (MAP kinase kinase—extracellular signal-regulated kinase), indicating the presence of autocrine—paracrine neurotrophin:Trk receptor signaling in these cells. Moreover, specific inhibition of these two Trk signaling pathways led to distinct biological effects; inhibition of PI3-kinase decreased progenitor cell survival, whereas inhibition of MEK selectively blocked the generation of neurons, with no effects on survival or proliferation. Thus, neurotrophins made by cortical progenitor cells themselves signal through the TrkB and TrkC receptors to mediate cortical progenitor cell survival and neurogenesis via two distinct downstream signaling pathways.

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.
