Molecular Axon Guidance PC12 cell…. then NGF added NGF is neurotropic and neurotrophic
Growth FactorsGuidance Factors
Netrin..was one of the first neurotropic factors
Findings
Netrin from FP
Netrin from FP, But perpendicular
Netrin in media
Cell locomotion like GCs Cell moves forward by extending filipodia & lamellipodia Focal adhesions are formed Cell is pulled forward
DiffusibleContact dependent
Extracellular matrix
Proteins of ECM - collagen
Extracellular matrix Proteins of ECM - proteoglycans
Extracellular matrix Proteins of ECM - fibronectin
Extracellular matrix Proteins of ECM - laminin collagen laminin
Interaction of cells with ECM inactive INTEGRINS
Interaction of cells with ECM INTEGRINS functions of outside-in signals differentiation motility growth survival ligands have RGD motif
Interaction of cells with ECM FOCAL ADHESIONS FA
Interaction of cells with ECM FOCAL ADHESION S
Interaction of cells with cells CELL ADHESION MOLECULES
Interaction of cells with ECM and other cells CELL ADHESION MOLECULES VS ECM ATTACHMENT MOLECULES
Tcf/Lef P E-Cadherin -catenin p120 P Wnt Dsh Frz II Extracellular Space actin filaments -catenin Ca 2+ Gsk3 APC Axin
Focus is often on adhesive function: Cadherins as molecular glue Cadherins as Master Regulators of Morphology Cadherins Actin Cytoskeleton -catenin Rho-GTPases Arp2/3 Proliferation CDKI: p27/p21 Wnt Motility Passive Inhibition Rho-GTPases Active Promoter Adhesion AJ’s Type of Cadherin Stabilize others junctions Receptor Signaling EGF FGF PDGF Transcriptional/ Nuclear Role -catenin/Wnt P120/kaiso In nucleus
