Contractile activity regulates isoform expression and polysialylation of NCAM in cultured myotubes: involvement of Ca2+ and protein kinase C

Abstract

Muscle development involves a series of complex cell-cell interactions that are mediated, at least in part, by several different cell adhesion molecules. Previous work from this lab showed that the different isoforms of NCAM and its level of polysialylation are developmentally regulated during chick myogenesis in vivo and that this regulation is important for normal muscle development. Using developing chick secondary myotubes grown in culture, we show here that both the polysialylation of NCAM and the developmental switch in isoform expression are regulated by activity and that Ca2+ entry through voltage-gated channels and the subsequent activation of protein kinase C are required for the developmental changes in NCAM isoform synthesis. Specifically, PSA expression was shown to be developmentally regulated with high expression being temporally correlated with the onset of spontaneous contractile activity. Furthermore, blocking contractile activity caused a decrease in PSA expression, while increasing activity with electrical stimulation resulted in its up-regulation. Immunoblot and metabolic labeling studies indicated that dividing myoblasts synthesize primarily 145-kD NCAM, newly formed, spontaneously contracting myotubes syn...Continue Reading

Adhesion Molecules in Health and Disease

Cell adhesion molecules are a subset of cell adhesion proteins located on the cell surface involved in binding with other cells or with the extracellular matrix in the process called cell adhesion. In essence, cell adhesion molecules help cells stick to each other and to their surroundings. Cell adhesion is a crucial component in maintaining tissue structure and function. Discover the latest research on adhesion molecule and their role in health and disease here.
