Abstrakt: FK1706 is a novel non-immunosuppressive immunophilin ligand with neurotrophic activity and exerts its neurotrophic effect through NGF. The present study aimed to elaborate on the neurotrophic activity and the mechanism of action of FK1706 in end-to-side neurorrhaphy rats and SH-SY5Y cells. In the regenerating nerves of neurorrhaphy rats, FK1706 increased the thickness of myelin sheath and the level of nerve regeneration-related proteins. The mechanism of action of FK1706 on neurite regrowth was elucidated in vitro by incubating SH-SY5Y cells in different conditions (Control, NGF, FK1706, NGF + FK1706, NGF + FK1706 + geldanamycin). Under the conditions where NGF was used, the phosphorylation level of major proteins (Raf-1 and ERK) in the Ras/Raf/MAPK/ERK signaling pathway related to SH-SY5Y cell proliferation was significantly enhanced following the application of FK1706. The number of viable cells, cell viability and neurite length of SH-SY5Y cells was maximal when NGF and FK1706 were used simultaneously. The binding level of HSP90 and Raf-1 in FK1706 group was the highest. These results indicated that FK1706 could significantly promote nerve regeneration after neurorrhaphy. The putative mechanism of action stated that FK1706 could promote the binding of HSP90 and Raf-1, make Raf-1 continue to be activated, thereby affecting key proteins in the Ras/Raf/MAPK/ERK signaling pathway related to the neurotrophic effects of NGF to promote the proliferation and neurite regrowth of nerve cells.
