pubmed:abstractText |
The vertebrate Wnt-1 proto-oncogene is expressed transiently in embryonic brain and functions in the development of the central nervous system and neural crest. The role of Wnt-1 in neural crest development appears to be to increase the number of certain progenitor cells by preventing their premature differentiation. To study the mechanism by which this transient Wnt-1 expression inhibits differentiation we have constructed PC12 pheochromocytoma cells in which Wnt-1 expression levels were controlled by use of a tetracycline-responsive transactivator. Induction of Wnt-1 expression by tetracycline withdrawal was followed by activation of the Wnt-1 signalling pathway as shown by activation of the Lef-1/Tcf transcription factor. Wnt-1 expression by these cells resulted in reversible inhibition of NGF-induced neurite outgrowth, but it did not adversely affect the maintenance of previously formed NGF-induced neurites. Wnt-1 expression also partially blocked the ability of NGF to decrease the rate of cell multiplication. Wnt-1 decreased the NGF-induced expression of the late-response gene SCG10 but not of the immediate early genes, fos, Nur77 and UPAR (urokinase-type plasminogen activator receptor) nor of the late-response genes GAP-43 and collagenase. The Wnt-1 expressing PC12 cells multiplied at a greater rate when they expressed Wnt-1 than they did in the absence of Wnt-1 expression, a result that is consistent with the proposal that Wnt-1 may also act as a mitogen.
