摘要

Retinal progenitor cells (RPCs) are neural stem cells able to differentiate into any normal adult retinal cell type, except for pigment epithelial cells. Retinoic acid (RA) is a powerful growth/differentiation factor that generally causes growth inhibition, differentiation and/or apoptosis. In this study, we demonstrate that RA not only affects mouse RPC differentiation but also improves cell survival by reducing spontaneous apoptotic rate without affecting RPC proliferation. The enhanced cell survival was accompanied by a significant upregulation of the expression of protein kinase A (PKA) and several protein kinase C (PKC) isoforms. Treatment of cells grown in RA-free media with 8-bromoadenosine3′,5′-cyclic monophosphate, a known activator of PKA, resulted in an anti-apoptotic effect similar to that caused by RA; whereas the PKA inhibitor N-[2-(p-bromocinnamylamino)ethyl]-5-isoquinolinesul-fonamide dihydrochloride led to a significant (~32%) increase in apoptosis. In contrast, treatment of RPCs with any of two PKC selective inhibitors, 2,2′,3,3′,4,4′-hexahydroxy-1,1′-biphenyl-6,6′-dimethanol dimethyl ether and bisindolylmaleimide XI, led to diminished apoptosis; while a PKC activator, phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate, increased apoptosis. These and other data suggest that the effect of RA on RPC survival is mostly due to the increased anti-apoptotic activity elicited by PKA, which might in turn be antagonized by PKC. Such a mechanism is a new example of tight regulation of important biological processes triggered by RA. Although the detailed mechanisms remain to be elucidated, we provide evidence that the pro-survival effect of RA on RPCs is not mediated by changed expression of p53 or bcl-2, and appears to be independent of β-amyloid, Fas ligand, TNF-α, ganglioside GM1 and ceramide C16-induced apoptotic pathways.
