Naturally occurring neuronal death (NOND) has been described in the postnatal cerebellum of several species, mainly affecting the cerebellar granule cells (CGCs) by an apoptotic mechanism. However, little is known about the cellular pathway(s) of CGC apoptosis in vivo. By immunocytochemistry, in situ detection of fragmented DNA, electron microscopy, and Western blotting, we demonstrate here the existence of two different molecular mechanisms of apoptosis in the rabbit postnatal cerebellum. These two mechanisms affect CGCs at different stages of their maturation and migration. In the external granular layer, premigratory CGCs undergo apoptosis upon phosphorylation of checkpoint kinase 1 (Chk1), and hyperphosphorylation of retinoblastoma protein. In postmigratory CGCs within the internal granular layer, caspase 3 and to a lesser extent 7 and 9 are activated, eventually leading to poly-ADP-ribose polymerase-1 (PARP-1) cleavage and programmed cell death. We conclude that NOND of premigratory CGCs is linked to activation of DNA checkpoint and alteration of normal cell cycle, whereas in postmigratory CGCs apoptosis is, more classically, dependent upon caspase 3 activation.
