Abstract
The synaptic form of acetylcholinesterase (AChE) in skeletal muscle ColQ-AChE derives from two separate genes encoding the catalytic and the non-catalytic collagenic tail (ColQ) subunits, respectively. ColQ-AChE expression is regulated by muscle activity; however, how this regulation takes place in skeletal muscle remains poorly understood. In this study, we overexpressed or knocked down ColQ expression in skeletal muscle and found that the level of this non-catalytic component by itself was sufficient to change the levels of total AChE activity by promoting assembly of higher order oligomeric forms including the collagen-tailed forms. These results initially suggested that ColQ could be limiting in the assembly of synaptic ColQ-AChE during development and differentiation. We then determined the levels of ColQ protein and ColQ mRNA during primary quail muscle cell development and differentiation in culture (QMCs) and as a function of muscle activity. Surprisingly, we found dissociation between transcription and translation of the non-catalytic subunit from its assembly into ColQ-AChE. Furthermore, we found that the vast majority of the steady state ColQ molecules in mature quail muscle cultures are not assembled into ColQ-AChE, suggesting that they are either rapidly degraded or have alternative function(s).

Abstract
Ion microscopy was used to image neurotransmitter-induced tracer ion flux at single-cell resolution. A mammalian muscle cell line (BC3H1) expressing the nicotinic acetylcholine receptor was exposed to 2 mM CsCl, with and without the acetylcholine analog carbamylcholine. 133Cs+, 12C+, 40Ca+, 39K+, and 23Na+ secondary ion images revealing intracellular distribution of these elements were recorded with a CAMECA IMS-3f ion microscope from freeze-fractured freeze-dried BC3H1 cells. The ion images were digitized directly from the microchannel plate/fluorescent screen detector assembly of the ion microscope using a charge-coupled device imager. Submillimolar concentrations of cesium were easily imaged. Cesium images were normalized to carbon images for a direct comparison of carbamylcholine-exposed and control cells. Carbamylcholine-exposed cells showed significantly higher cesium influx than controls. Within the carbamylcholine-exposed cells, cell-to-cell heterogeneity for cesium influx was observed. Injured cells were identified by their potassium, sodium, and calcium signals and omitted from the quantitative analysis of the ion image data. This method should be useful for identifying cells from various regions of the nervous system containing receptors that control the translocation of monovalent cations, including Cs+. Among these neuronal receptors in the central nervous system are those activated by acetylcholine, glutamate, aspartate, or N-methyl-D-aspartate.

Abstract
Synthesis of acetylcholine receptors (AChR) can be affected by calcium, but the role played by this cation is controversial. The effect of changes in extracellular calcium, [Ca2+]o, on AChR synthesis was examined in a cultured mouse muscle cell line, BC3H-1. Reduction of [Ca2+]o for long periods (approximately 22 h) leads to a decrease in total surface AChR levels, a finding that is consistent with inhibition of AChR synthesis. A half-maximal reduction in surface AChR levels is observed when [Ca2+]o is decreased from 1.8 to approximately 5o microM. Under these conditions, however, total protein synthesis is also largely inhibited, suggesting that the effect of [Ca2+]o on AChR synthesis may be relatively non-specific. Increasing [Ca2+]i by adding the Ca2+ ionophore, A23187 (in the presence of 1.8 mM [Ca2+]o) also gives similar and significant reductions of both AChR and protein synthesis. Since the time course of changes in intracellular calcium [( Ca2+]i) produced by these manoeuvres is unknown, we examined the effects of briefer (1-6 h) reductions in [Ca2+]o and achieved a more specific reduction in AChR synthesis. A direct measurement of the changes in [Ca2+]i resulting from changes in [Ca2+]o was made using the fluorescent indicator Fura-2 and video fluorescence microscopy. Our results show that in BC3H-1 muscle cells the resting intracellular calcium decreases reversibly over 20 min when [Ca2+]o is decreased. We suggest that a reduction of [Ca2+]i produced by the lower [Ca2+]o underlies the reduction in AChR synthesis observed in these experiments.

Abstract
BC3H1 is a cell line that undergoes a musclelike pattern of differentiation under the appropriate conditions. We have examined the control of the synthesis of proteins characteristic of differentiated muscle in these cells as a function of their position in the cell cycle. We define two positions in the cell cycle where BC3H1 cells can remain stably quiescent. G1d is a restriction point early in the G1 portion of the cell cycle that permits the synthesis of muscle-specific proteins and is probably identical to G0. The second restriction point, G1q, occurs approximately 4 hr later in the G1 portion of the cell cycle and does not permit the synthesis of muscle-specific proteins. Movement of the cells from G1d to G1q occurs when fibroblast growth factor is added to the cells and is reversed when this growth factor is removed. Repression of the synthesis of muscle-specific proteins occurs when fibroblast growth factor is added to cells in G1d. In the case of the muscle form of creatine phosphokinase (M-CPK), the decline in the rate synthesis of this protein is a consequence of a decreased level of its mRNA. By contrast, the repression of alpha-actin synthesis, a protein synthesized only in differentiated cells, appears to be controlled at the translational level. The effect of fibroblast growth factor and other mitogens in these cells require activation of tyrosine kinase(s), but the intracellular targets of these kinases are not known. Studies by others suggest that activation of the ras oncogene can mimic the action of mitogenic polypeptides on these and other muscle cells.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
In both the central and the peripheral nervous systems, impulse activity regulates the expression of a vast number of genes that code for synaptic proteins, including neuropeptides, enzymes involved in neurotransmitter biosynthesis and degradation, and membrane receptors. In recent years, the mechanisms involved in these regulations became amenable to investigation by the methods of recombinant DNA technology. The first part of this review focuses on the activity-dependent control of nicotinic acetylcholine receptor biosynthesis in vertebrate muscle, a model case for the regulation of synaptic protein biosynthesis at the postsynaptic level. The second part summarizes some examples of neuronal proteins whose biosynthesis is under the control of transsynaptic impulse activity. The first, second, and third intracellular messengers involved in membrane-to-gene signaling are discussed, as are possible posttranscriptional control mechanisms. Finally, models are proposed for a role of neuronal activity in the genesis and stabilization of the synapse.

Abstract
The functional significance of multiple isoactins in the same cell is still not understood. To address this question, we examined the response of smooth muscle and cardiac muscle alpha-isoactins to a serial extraction procedure applied to both muscle and nonmuscle cell types. We compared these extraction results with results obtained with the beta- and gamma-nonmuscle actin isoforms from the same cells. In differentiated BC3H1 nonfusing muscle cells (smooth muscle alpha-isoactin), in human rhabdomyosarcoma cells (cardiac alpha-isoactin), and in chick skeletal muscle cells (cardiac alpha-isoactin), different fractions were found selectively enriched in either the nonmuscle or the muscle-specific actin isoforms compared with their relative abundance in whole cell extracts. Conversely, when these same isoactins were examined either in undifferentiated BC3H1 cells or in mouse nonmuscle cells stably transfected with a cardiac alpha-isoactin gene, no enrichment of these isoforms above their relative abundance in whole cell extracts was observed. These results indicate that within the muscle or muscle-like cells examined, the different actin isoforms were either selectively utilized or localized. These results further show that isoactin-specific responses observed were apparently related to the cell type in which they were found and not to differences in inherent physical properties such as solubility of the different isoactins examined.

Abstract
The regulation of acetylcholine receptor alpha-subunit gene expression was analyzed by transient expression assays. Using rabbit beta-globin cDNA as a reporter gene, we have confirmed that the 5'-flanking sequence of the chicken acetylcholine receptor alpha-subunit gene directs specific expression in differentiated C2C12 cells, a mouse muscle cell line, but not in undifferentiated C2C12 cells and mouse 3T3 fibroblasts. Testing chimeric plasmids containing Bal31 deletion mutants of the alpha-subunit gene upstream sequence, we found the -116 to -81 region of the alpha-subunit to be responsible for tissue- and stage-specific expression. This 36 bp fragment stimulates the activity of both alpha-subunit and SV40 promoters in a distance- and orientation-independent manner, thus fulfilling the criteria of an enhancer.

Abstract
The establishment of a differentiated phenotype in skeletal muscle cells requires withdrawal from the cell cycle and termination of DNA synthesis. Myogenesis can be inhibited by serum components, purified mitogens, and transforming growth factors, but the intracellular signaling pathways utilized by these molecules are unknown. Recent studies have confirmed a role for proteins encoded by cellular proto-oncogenes in transduction of growth factor effects that lead to cell proliferation. To test the contrasting hypothesis that cellular oncogenes might also regulate tissue-specific gene expression in developing muscle cells, myoblasts have been modified by incorporation of the cognate viral oncogenes, the corresponding normal or oncogenic cellular homologs, and chimeric oncogenes, whose expression can be induced reversibly. Regulation of the endogenous cellular oncogenes also has been examined in detail. Down-regulation of c-myc is not obligatory for myogenesis; rather, inhibitory effects of myc on muscle differentiation are contingent on sustained proliferation. In contrast, activated src and ras genes block myocyte differentiation directly, through a mechanism that is independent of DNA synthesis and is rapidly reversible, resembling the effects of inhibitory growth factors. The coordinate regulation of diverse tissue-specific gene products including muscle creatine kinase, nicotinic acetylcholine receptors, sarcomeric proteins, and voltage-gated ion channels, raises the hypothesis that inhibitors such as transforming growth factor-beta and ras proteins might exert their effects through a transacting transcriptional signal shared by multiple muscle-specific genes.

Abstract
The nonfusing muscle cell line BC3H1 expresses a family of muscle-specific proteins when the fetal bovine serum (FBS) concentration is reduced from 20 to 1%. We have used a series of glycosylation inhibitors to assess the role played by glycoproteins in the initiation of differentiation in this cell line. Tunicamycin (TNM) and 2-deoxy-D-glucose, added to cells when the FBS concentration was reduced, blocked creatine phosphokinase (CPK) induction by 70-95%. These effects were dose dependent and reversible. TNM and 2-deoxy-D-glucose also reversed CPK induction in differentiated cells. Leupeptin and N-acetylglucosamine did not reverse these effects. 1-Deoxynojirimycin, 1-deoxymannojirimycin, and swainsonine have no effect on induced CPK expression, whereas castanospermine, a glucosidase I inhibitor, blocked its induction completely. As attempts to use conditioned medium from cells grown in 1 or 20% FBS have no effect on this differentiation process we conclude that high mannose structures, but not complex form glycoproteins, bound to the surface of BC3H1 cells play a role in transducing signals for differentiation and are probable mediators of cell/cell contact.

Abstract
Skeletal muscle differentiation is accompanied by accumulation of the mRNA encoding the muscle isoenzyme of creatine kinase (MCK) and can be suppressed by serum components, fibroblast growth factor (FGF), or type beta transforming growth factor (TGF beta). Using the nonfusing myogenic cell line, BC3H1, the potential involvement of c-myc in growth factor-dependent inhibition of myogenesis was examined. Withdrawal of undifferentiated myoblasts from the cell cycle in medium with 0.5% serum was associated with a precipitous decline in expression of c-myc mRNA followed by induction of MCK mRNA. In 0.5% serum containing TGF beta, c-myc mRNA declined to a level identical to that in differentiated cells; however, MCK mRNA was not expressed. Exposure of quiescent differentiated cells to FGF or TGF beta caused disappearance of muscle-specific gene products and was accompanied by only transient low level induction of c-myc mRNA. These data indicate that persistent c-myc expression is not required for growth factor-mediated inhibition of myogenic differentiation.

Abstract
The alpha 1 and beta-adrenergic receptor metabolism was studied at cell confluency in BC3H1 and C6 glioma cells. After their irreversible blockade with phenoxybenzamine and a bromoacetyl derivative of pindolol (Br-AAM-pindolol) respectively the receptor reappearance allows to determine a half life of 23 hours for the alpha 1-adrenergic receptor in BC3H1 and a quasi absence of beta-adrenergic receptor metabolism in C6 glioma cells at confluency. In contrast, beta-adrenergic receptor is rapidly synthesized during cell division. This metabolic stability of beta-adrenergic receptor at confluency was also observed in BC3H1 cells using the heavy isotope labeling of the beta-adrenergic receptor (half life of 8 days). This stability was also confirmed by the observation that at confluency in C6 glioma cells, beta adrenergic receptors reappeared at the cell surface after a complete down-regulation. In parallel with the study of the half life of adrenergic receptors, we determined in BC3H1 the half life of the forskolin stimulated catalytic unit of the adenylate cyclase using heavy isotope labeling method. In heavy amino-acid medium the apparent sedimentation coefficients of the adenylate cyclase increased from 7.4 +/- 0.04S (n = 36) to 8.4 +/- 0.03S (n = 13). This increase was due to the synthesis of new heavy molecule since it was blocked by cycloheximide. The analysis of the kinetic of synthesis of heavy molecules allowed to calculate a half life of 36 hours. The comparison between the half life of several regulatory membrane proteins in BC3H1 indicate that each of them has a specific metabolism.

Abstract
The expression of actin-isoform mRNAs in the smooth muscle cells (SMC) of the aortic media in rats has been studied by Northern-blot hybridization, using a general actin-cRNA probe, and two cRNA probes specific for beta- and gamma-cytoplasmic actins, during: (1) development, (2) intimal thickening after endothelial injury induced by balloon catheterization, and (3) growth in culture. In 5-day-old rats, the ratio between alpha-smooth-muscle-actin mRNA and beta- and gamma-cytoplasmic-actin mRNAs was close to 1. It increased to about 4 in 6-week-old rats. Replicating SMC from regions of intimal thickening 15 days after endothelial injury, and SMC growing in culture contained a predominance of cytoplasmic actin mRNAs. Intimal SMC 60 days after endothelial injury (at which time the endothelium had fully regenerated) demonstrated a pattern of actin mRNAs similar to that of normal media. Functional mRNA measured by translation in a reticulocyte lysate showed increases in the level of alpha-actin and decreases in beta-actin in rats from 5 days to 6 weeks of age. These results suggest that during development, under pathological conditions, and in cell culture, the expression of actin isoforms in arterial SMC depends on many factors, including the amount and translation efficiency of mRNAs, and the relative stabilities of the proteins involved.

Abstract
We have studied several aspects of glycoprotein synthesis in myoblast differentiation by using a nonfusing myoblast cell line, BC3H1. Previous studies showed that transfer of proliferating undifferentiated BC3H1 cells to mitogen-depleted medium results in the cells' withdrawal from the cell cycle and induction of a variety of muscle-specific gene products [E. N. Olson, L. Glaser, J. P. Merlie, R. Sebane, and J. Lindstrom (1983) J. Biol. Chem. 258, 13946-13953]. Because cell surface glycoproteins have been implicated in myoblast differentiation, in the present study we measured the amount of oligosaccharyltransferase in microsomes isolated from BC3H1 cells at various stages of differentiation. By using an acceptor peptide containing the sequence-Asn-Leu-Thr-, enzyme activity was measured by formation of [3H]glycopeptide. In addition, active enzyme protein was measured with a 125I-labeled photoreactive derivative of the acceptor tripeptide. Both of these independent assay methods revealed a marked increase in oligosaccharyltransferase when differentiation was induced by serum depletion. Moreover, mitogenic stimulation of differentiated cells resulted in a return of oligosaccharyltransferase to near basal levels. This reversible increase in this key enzyme in protein glycosylation occurred despite the fact that both total protein and glycoprotein synthesis were depressed during differentiation. These data indicate that during myogenesis the level of oligosaccharyltransferase is regulated in parallel with a number of muscle-specific gene products. These results are discussed in the context of regulation of the pathway of glycoprotein synthesis.

Abstract
Alpha 1 and beta adrenergic receptor metabolism was investigated by studying receptor reappearance after an irreversible blockade. Phenoxybenzamine was used to irreversibly block alpha 1 adrenergic receptors both in vitro in the BC3H1 cell line and in vivo in rat submaxillary glands. In these two systems, the alpha 1 adrenergic receptor reappearance followed a monoexponential kinetic allowing to determine the half-life of the receptor (23h in vitro, 33h in vivo) as well as the rate of receptor synthesis and degradation. the receptor reappearance was due to receptor synthesis since it was blocked by cycloheximide. The irreversible blockade of beta adrenergic receptors was done with an alkylating beta adrenergic antagonist that we recently developed: Br-pindolol (1). This ligand has high efficiency and blocked at 10(-7)M 80-90% of the beta adrenergic receptors present in C6 glioma cells in culture. After this irreversible blockade, receptors reappeared only during cell division. At confluency, when cells did not significantly divide, receptor synthesis could hardly be detectable. Therefore, at confluency, the metabolic stability of the beta adrenergic receptor is considerable, compared to that of the alpha 1 adrenergic receptor. This stability was confirmed by the observation that after an almost complete "down-regulation" of the beta adrenergic receptor, receptor repopulation of the C6 glioma cells was total and occurred in the presence of cycloheximide.
