Aim of present study was to analyze the methylation pattern of PSEN1 promoter in SK-N-BE neuroblastoma cells and TgCRND8 mice, in a B vitamin (folate, B12 and B6) deficiency paradigm.
Analysis of the mutant and wild-type-280 variants using luciferase reporter gene expression in transiently transfected neuroblastoma cells showed a 30% decrease in transcriptional activity for the mutant-280G PSEN1 promoter variant compared with the wild-type variant-280C.
For this, we established SH-SY5Y neuroblastoma cell lines stably transfected with wild-type PS1 or either the PS1 exon 9 deletion (deltaE9) or PS1L250S mutants.
Here, we report that the expression of FAD-linked PS1M146V mutant affects store-operated calcium channel activity (Isoc) in human neuroblastoma SK-N-SH cells.
In the present study, we examined intracellular Ca(2+) stores coupled to muscarinic receptors and capacitative Ca(2+) entry (CCE) in the human neuroblastoma SH-SY5Y cell line, and how these were modulated by over-expression of either wild-type presenilin 1 (PS1wt) or a mutant form of presenilin 1 (PS1 deltaE9) which predisposes to early-onset Alzheimer's disease.
In the present study, we examined the effect of PSEN1 1143T and G384A mutations on tau phosphorylation in human SH-SY5Y and mouse Neuro-2a neuroblastoma cell lines that were transiently transfected with wild type (WT) or mutant PSEN1.
In this study, we found that the expression of mutant-PS1 in stable transfectants of SH-SY5Y neuroblastoma cells results in a reduction of the biosynthesis and steady-state levels of glucosylceramide.
Interestingly, the expression of presenilin-1 in human U87 MG astrocytoma and human SK-N-SH neuroblastoma cells is only increased when cells are treated with glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor or transforming growth factor-beta3.
Overexpression of GRP78 in neuroblastoma cells bearing PS1 mutants almost completely restores resistance to ER stress to the level of cells expressing wild-type PS1.
The abundance of mRNA transcripts for presenilin 1 and 2 (PS1 and PS2), APP, and nicastrin were evaluated in neuroblastoma cells exposed either to serum-depleted medium or to low-density lipoproteins (LDL).
The effects of these two mutations on presenilin-1 endoproteolysis and β-amyloid (Aβ) production were examined in SH-SY5Y neuroblastoma cells infected with lentiviruses expressing presenilin-1 wild type (WT), I249L and P433S mutants.
The human neuroblastoma SH-SY5Y cells stably transfected with these two Chinese presenilin 1 mutations were established to explore whether they are sensitive to, or influenced by, serum deprivation and protected by insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1).
This potential for a direct protein-protein interaction between PS-1 and MAO-A is not specific for HT-22 cells as we were also able to co-immunoprecipitate MAO-A with FLAG-PS-1 variants in N2a mouse neuroblastoma cells and in HEK293 human embryonic kidney cells.
This study examined the effects of overexpression of presenilin-1 wild-type (PS1wt) or mutant L286V (PS1m) in human neuroblastoma SH-SY5Y cells on signal transduction systems.
To elucidate the role of presenilin-1 in the Alzheimer's disease pathology, we tested two such mutations (P117L and M146L) for their effect in stably transfected mouse neuroblastoma cell lines.
To investigate the pathogenic mechanism of PS1 mutations linked to FAD, we established inducible mouse neuroblastoma (Neuro 2a) cell lines expressing the human wild-type (wt) or mutated PS1(M146L or deltaexon 10) under the control of the Lac repressor.
To investigate the role of pleiotropic neuronal and glial cytokines in the regulation of presenilin (PS) gene expression in human neural cells, both presenilin-1 (PS1) and presenilin-2 (PS2) mRNA levels were analysed by Northern blotting in SK-N-SH neuroblastoma, IMR-32 neuroblastoma, NTera2 teratocarcinoma-derived differentiated neurones (NTera2-N) and U-373MG astrocytoma cells following exposure to proinflammatory cytokines (TNF-alpha, IFN-gamma, or IL-1beta), anti-inflammatory cytokines (IL-10 or TGF-beta1), dibutyryl cyclic AMP or phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA).
To verify whether this mutation is pathologically functional, we established mutation type and wild type Presenilin-1 gene stably transfected cell lines (human neuroblastoma SH-SY5Y cells) to detect beta-amyloid (Abeta) concentrations using ELISA and radioimmunity methods.
Tunicamycin treatment caused a doubling of PSEN1 holoprotein production in HEK293 cells and an increase in holoprotein production to approximately 180% in GOTO human neuroblastoma and KNS-42 human glioma cell lines, without changing the amounts of PSEN1 N- or C-terminal fragments.
