Popis: | J. Neurochem. (2011) 116, 1088–1096. Abstract Moderate, transient oxidative stress is achieved in SH-SY5Y cells using tertiary butylhydroperoxide as oxidant. Over a recovery period of 24 h, the enzymatic activity and protein levels of the acetylcholinesterase (AChE) splice variants tailed AChE (AChE-T) and readthrough AChE (AChE-R) are monitored. Their time-dependent correlation to pro- and anti-apoptotic factors, namely caspase 3 and Bcl-2, respectively, as well as lactate dehydrogenase release as a measure of cell viability is assessed. A distinctly different expression pattern of AChE-T as compared with AChE-R is recorded, in that AChE-T shows only a very slight increase over a 6 h time period. In contrast, AChE-R rises continuously during the recovery period, reaching peak intracellular levels that are up to six times higher than control levels 3–4 h post-stress, and is released from cells in substantial amounts. Moreover, anti-apoptotic Bcl-2 increases significantly, peaking 2–3 h after this AChE-R peak has occurred. We believe this study presents the first work that demonstrates – without relying on techniques of over-expression – the time-dependent correlation between apoptotic processes and related rescue mechanisms involving AChE isoforms in a neuronal cell line. |
