Figure Legend Snippet: ApoER2 proteolysis induced by NGF depends on TrkA tyrosine kinase activity and on metalloproteinase activity. PC12-ApoER2 cells were serum-starved and pre-treated with 10 μM DAPT and (A) 100 nM K252a or (C) with 50 μM GM6001 for 1 h. Then, the cells were incubated with 100 ng/mL NGF for 2 h. ApoER2, ApoER2-CTF and the proteolytic fragment of p75 NTR (control) were determined by western blot analysis using antibodies directed against their intracellular regions. α-tubulin is shown as a loading control, and the phosphorylated form of AKT is a control for TrkA activation by NGF. (B and D) The levels of ApoER2 CTF were normalized to the loading control α-tubulin and plotted as the average ± SD of three independent experiments. One way ANOVA, Holm-Sidak post-hoc test, ** P

Figure Legend Snippet: Diagram summarizing proposed subcellular pathways of internalized NT-3 ( black dots ) in a retinal ganglion cell. At least two pathways of internalized NT-3 can be distinguished. A lysosomal pathway of NT-3 may be common to all neurotrophins and may involve binding to the p75 receptor ( U ) or binding of NT-3 to trkC receptor ( Y ) in the presence of the tyrosine kinase inhibitor K252a. The neurotrophin is degraded in lysosomes ( LYS ). Alternatively, a novel pathway of NT-3 internalized in endosomes fuses with membranes of the Golgi apparatus: Golgi Pathway . This sorting requires tyrosine kinase activity (presumably trkC , Y ), and this pathway may join that of newly synthesized neurotrophins as well as p75 receptor ( U ) from the endoplasmic reticulum ( ER ). After passage through the Golgi system, internalized NT-3 is packaged in presumptive large dense-core vesicles ( LDCV ) for anterograde axonal transport. In this pathway, internalized NT-3 binds preferentially to p75. Anterogradely transported NT-3 is released from RGC axon terminals in the tectum, and after release it binds predominantly to trkC in tectal cells where it accumulates in multivesicular bodies ( MVB ).

Figure Legend Snippet: Diagram summarizing proposed subcellular pathways of internalized NT-3 ( black dots ) in a retinal ganglion cell. At least two pathways of internalized NT-3 can be distinguished. A lysosomal pathway of NT-3 may be common to all neurotrophins and may involve binding to the p75 receptor ( U ) or binding of NT-3 to trkC receptor ( Y ) in the presence of the tyrosine kinase inhibitor K252a. The neurotrophin is degraded in lysosomes ( LYS ). Alternatively, a novel pathway of NT-3 internalized in endosomes fuses with membranes of the Golgi apparatus: Golgi Pathway . This sorting requires tyrosine kinase activity (presumably trkC , Y ), and this pathway may join that of newly synthesized neurotrophins as well as p75 receptor ( U ) from the endoplasmic reticulum ( ER ). After passage through the Golgi system, internalized NT-3 is packaged in presumptive large dense-core vesicles ( LDCV ) for anterograde axonal transport. In this pathway, internalized NT-3 binds preferentially to p75. Anterogradely transported NT-3 is released from RGC axon terminals in the tectum, and after release it binds predominantly to trkC in tectal cells where it accumulates in multivesicular bodies ( MVB ).

Figure Legend Snippet: Internalization of 125 I-NT-3 (10–20 ng/ml) in purified retinal ganglion cells from E18–21 chick embryos does not require tyrosine kinase activity. The amount of internalization in the presence of 1 μg/ml K252a (tyrosine kinase inhibitor) is plotted as the percentage relative to the values for vehicle (1 μg/ml DMSO), which were averaged to 100% internalization (∼40,000 cpm per plate). Nonspecific association of NT-3 (at 4°C) is indicated ( dotted line ). Error bars indicate SEM. The number of independent experiments (each in duplicate) is indicated. The p level for confidence ( t test) is indicated, showing no significant effect of K252a on NT-3 internalization.

Figure Legend Snippet: Diagram summarizing proposed subcellular pathways of internalized NT-3 ( black dots ) in a retinal ganglion cell. At least two pathways of internalized NT-3 can be distinguished. A lysosomal pathway of NT-3 may be common to all neurotrophins and may involve binding to the p75 receptor ( U ) or binding of NT-3 to trkC receptor ( Y ) in the presence of the tyrosine kinase inhibitor K252a. The neurotrophin is degraded in lysosomes ( LYS ). Alternatively, a novel pathway of NT-3 internalized in endosomes fuses with membranes of the Golgi apparatus: Golgi Pathway . This sorting requires tyrosine kinase activity (presumably trkC , Y ), and this pathway may join that of newly synthesized neurotrophins as well as p75 receptor ( U ) from the endoplasmic reticulum ( ER ). After passage through the Golgi system, internalized NT-3 is packaged in presumptive large dense-core vesicles ( LDCV ) for anterograde axonal transport. In this pathway, internalized NT-3 binds preferentially to p75. Anterogradely transported NT-3 is released from RGC axon terminals in the tectum, and after release it binds predominantly to trkC in tectal cells where it accumulates in multivesicular bodies ( MVB ).
