Transcriptional analysis of apoptotic cerebellar granule neurons following rescue by Gip, Sp, Pacap and Igf1
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Primary cultures of Cerebellar Granule Neurons (CGNs) have been extensively utilized to examine the signal transduction mechanisms underlying neuronal apoptosis. We conducted whole-genome expression profiling to decipher the transcriptional program controlling the apoptotic/survival switch in cerebellar granule neurons (CGNs) following the induction of apoptosis by serum and potassium deprivation and their rescue by gastric inhibitory polypeptide (Gip), substance p (Sp), insulin-like growth factor-1 (Igf1) or pituitary adenylyl cyclase-activating polypeptide (Pacap). Our results reveal the transcriptional changes intersecting neuronal apoptosis and survival and form the basis for further functional analyses and pharmacological exploitation to identify neuroprotective drugs.
