P19 embryonal carcinoma (EC) cells undergo apoptosis during neuronal differentiation induced by all-trans retinoic acid (RA). Caspase-3-like proteases are activated and involved in the apoptosis of P19 EC cells during neuronal differentiation.1 Recently it has been shown that growth factor signals protect against apoptosis by phosphorylation of Bad. Phosphorylated Bad, an apoptotic member of the Bcl-2 family, cannot bind to Bcl-xL and results in Bcl-xL homodimer formation and subsequent antiapoptotic activity. In the present study, we demonstrate that this system is used generally to protect against apoptosis during neuronal differentiation. Bcl-xL inhibited the activation of caspase-3-like proteases. Basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) inhibited more than 90% of the caspase-3-like activity, inhibited processing of caspase-3 into its active form, and inhibited DNA fragmentation. bFGF activated phosphatidyl-inositol-3-kinase (PI3K) and stimulated the phosphorylation of Bad. Phosphorylation was inhibited by wortmannin, an inhibitor of PI3K and its downstream target Akt. Thus, Bad is a target of the FGF receptor-mediated signals involved in the protection against activation of caspase-3.
