In several neuronal cell systems, fibroblast-derived growth factor
(FGF) and nerve growth factor (NGF) act as neurogenic agents, whereas
epidermal growth factor (EGF) acts as a mitogen. The mechanisms responsible for these different cellular fates are unclear. We report
here that although FGF, NGF, and EGF all activate mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase (extracellular signal-related kinase [ERK]) in
rat hippocampal (H19-7) and pheochromocytoma (PC12) cells, the
activation of ERK by the neurogenic agents FGF and NGF is dependent
upon protein kinase C
(PKC
), whereas ERK activation in response
to the mitogenic EGF is independent of PKC
. Antisense PKC
oligonucleotides or the PKC
-specific inhibitor rottlerin inhibited
FGF- and NGF-induced, but not EGF-induced, ERK activation. In contrast,
EGF-induced ERK activation was inhibited by the
phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase inhibitor wortmannin, which had no effect
upon FGF-induced ERK activation. Rottlerin also inhibited the
activation of MAP kinase kinase (MEK) in response to activated Raf, but
had no effect upon c-Raf activity or ERK activation by activated MEK.
These results indicate that PKC
functions either downstream from or
in parallel with c-Raf, but upstream of MEK. Inhibition of PKC
also
blocked neurite outgrowth induced by FGF and NGF in PC12 cells and by activated Raf in H19-7 cells, indicating a role for PKC
in the neurogenic effects of FGF, NGF, and Raf. Interestingly, the PKC
requirement is apparently cell type specific, since FGF-induced ERK
activation was independent of PKC
in NIH 3T3 murine fibroblasts, in
which FGF is a mitogen. These data demonstrate that PKC
contributes to growth factor specificity and response in neuronal cells and may
also promote cell-type-specific differences in growth factor signaling.
