Clones of F11 hybrid (neuroblastoma X dorsal root neuron) cells have been tested for adherence and neurite outgrowth on three different substrata on which the parental cells display some competence--plasma fibronectin (pFN) with its multiple receptors, cholera toxin subunit B(CTB) as a model ganglioside GM1-binding substratum, and platelet factor-4 (PF4) as a model proteoglycan-binding substratum. This paradigm tests for independently segregating and overlapping mechanisms of neuritogenesis via transmembrane processes in pluripotent hybrid cells based on random loss of chromosomes contributed by the parent neural cells. For the nine clones tested, attachment was significantly lower on CTB but much higher on PF4 for all clones when compared to their attachment on pFN. Supplementation of cells with GM1 stimulated attachment of only two clones (on all three substrata). Neurite outgrowth was observed in a substratum-specific pattern and varied from 0 to greater than 60% on pFN; on CTB and PF4 substrata, the patterns were similar to each other but differed markedly from the pattern on pFN. In contrast, PF4- and CTB-directed neurites differed morphologically from each other while sharing some characteristics with neurites on pFN. Supplementation with GM1 or GT1b, but not GD1a, was inhibitory for neurite outgrowth in certain clones. Cycloheximide pretreatment distinguished several classes of clones based on inhibition of neuritogenesis. While most clones on pFN were unaffected, all clones on CTB and PF4 displayed significant and comparable degrees of inhibition, suggesting the sharing of some protein intermediate(s) on these substrata. Exposure to cycloheximide only during the active period of neuritogenesis generated higher percentages and longer neurites for all clones, indicating a widely-used negative regulation mechanism. Based on substratum type and cycloheximide protocols, these data have resolved six or more different transmembrane signalling processes for generating different classes of neurites. Some mechanisms have been segregated into individual clones while others overlap in other clones, providing cell systems for biochemical and molecular biological dissection of these processes.
