Abstract
Fibroblast growth factor-2 (FGF-2) is an important modulator of cell growth and differentiation and stimulates cell survival of various cells including neurons. Rat FGF-2 occurs in three isoforms, a low molecular weight 18 kD and two high molecular weight forms (21, 23 kD), representing alternative translation products from a single mRNA. The 18 kD isoform shows mainly cytoplasmatic localization, whereas the 21/23 kD FGF-2 are localized in the nucleus. In addition, the FGF-2 isoforms are differentially regulated in the sensory ganglia and peripheral nerve following nerve injury and in the adrenal medulla during post-natal development and after hormonal stimuli. The distinct intracellular distribution and differential regulation of the different FGF-2 isoforms indicate that they have unique biological roles, however, little is known about the biological effects of the high molecular weight FGF-2 isoforms. Immortalized Schwann cells and PC12 cells, which stably overexpress the different FGF-2 isoforms, showed that the different endogenous-overexpressed FGF-2 isoforms lead to dramatic modifications in cell proliferation and survival, when tested in serum-free and serum-containing medium. In contrast, application of recombinant FGF-2 isoforms on normal PC12 and immortalized Schwann cells results in similar biological effects on the proliferation and survival of the cells. Furthermore, we investigated the potential regulatory effects of endogenous-overexpressed and exogenous-applied FGF-2 isoforms on the mRNA level of the FGF-2 receptors and, additionally, on the tyrosin hydroxylase mRNA expression in PC12 cells.
