Abstract:
ObjectiveTo study the effect of 8-Br-cAMP and isopentenyl pyrophosphate (IPP) on the ex pression tau protein in various neural cell lines at the level of signal transdu ction. MethodsNG108-15, PC12 and SH-SY5Y cells were treated with 8-Br-cAMP and IPP in the 37?C incubator for 30 min, then the tau-enriched samples were analyzed by West ern blot. ResultsSH-SY5Y cells only expressed the isoform of tau protein with the lowest molecul ar weight; PC12 cells mainly expressed high molecular weight tau, and several ot her isoforms of tau; NG108-15 expressed a little of isoform of tau. In the expe rimental conditions, the expression of tau was altered with 8-Br-cAMP and IPP in NG108-15, SH-SY5Y and PC12 cells. Conclusions8-Br-cAMP and IPP does not alter the expression of tau in NG108-15, SH-SY5Y and PC12 cells.
