Brain IGF-I regulates LTP, spatial memory, and sexual dimorphic behavior. Life Sci Alliance 2023; 6:e202201691.

Abstract
Insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) exerts multiple actions, yet the role of IGF-I from different sources is poorly understood. Here, we explored the functional and behavioral consequences of the conditional deletion of Igf-I in the nervous system (Igf-I Δ/Δ), and demonstrated that long-term potentiation was impaired in hippocampal slices. Moreover, Igf-I Δ/Δ mice showed spatial memory deficits in the Morris water maze, and the significant sex-dependent differences displayed by Igf-I Ctrl/Ctrl mice disappeared in Igf-I Δ/Δ mice in the open field and rota-rod tests. Brain Igf-I deletion disorganized the granule cell layer of the dentate gyrus (DG), and it modified the relative expressions of GAD and VGLUT1, which are preferentially localized to inhibitory and excitatory presynaptic terminals. Furthermore, Igf-I deletion altered protein modules involved in receptor trafficking, synaptic proteins, and proteins that functionally interact with estrogen and androgen metabolism. Our findings indicate that brain IGF-I is crucial for long-term potentiation, and that it is involved in the regulation of spatial memory and sexual dimorphic behaviors, possibly by maintaining the granule cell layer structure and the stability of synaptic-related protein modules.

Abstract
In the central nervous system (CNS), insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1) regulates myelination by oligodendrocyte (ODC) precursor cells and shows anti-apoptotic properties in neuronal cells in different in vitro and in vivo systems. Previous work also suggests that IGF-1 protects ODCs from cell death and enhances remyelination in models of toxin-induced and autoimmune demyelination. However, since evidence remains controversial, the therapeutic potential of IGF-1 in demyelinating CNS conditions is unclear. To finally shed light on the function of IGF1-signaling for ODCs, we deleted insulin-like growth factor 1 receptor (IGF1R) specifically in mature ODCs of the mouse. We found that ODC survival and myelin status were unaffected by the absence of IGF1R until 15 months of age, indicating that IGF-1 signaling does not play a major role in post-mitotic ODCs during homeostasis. Notably, the absence of IGF1R did neither affect ODC survival nor myelin status upon cuprizone intoxication or induction of experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE), models for toxic and autoimmune demyelination, respectively. Surprisingly, however, the absence of IGF1R from ODCs protected against clinical neuroinflammation in the EAE model. Together, our data indicate that IGF-1 signaling is not required for the function and survival of mature ODCs in steady-state and disease.

Abstract
The insulin-like growth factors (IGF-I and IGF-II) and their receptors are widely expressed in nervous tissue from early embryonic life. They also cross the blood brain barriers by active transport, and their regulation as endocrine factors therefore differs from other tissues. In brain, IGFs have paracrine and autocrine actions that are modulated by IGF-binding proteins and interact with other growth factor signalling pathways. The IGF system has roles in nervous system development and maintenance. There is substantial evidence for a specific role for this system in some neurodegenerative diseases, and neuroprotective actions make this system an attractive target for new therapeutic approaches. In developing new therapies, interaction with IGF-binding proteins and other growth factor signalling pathways should be considered. This evidence is reviewed, gaps in knowledge are highlighted, and recommendations are made for future research.

Abstract
Citicoline, a natural compound that functions as an intermediate in the biosynthesis of cell membrane phospholipids, is essential for membrane integrity and repair. It has been reported to protect brain against trauma. This study was designed to investigate the protective effects of citicoline on closed head injury (CHI) in rats. Citicoline (250 mg/kg i.v. 30 min and 4 h after CHI) lessened body weight loss, and improved neurological functions significantly at 7 days after CHI. It markedly lowered brain edema and blood-brain barrier permeability, enhanced the activities of superoxide dismutase and the levels of glutathione, reduced the levels of malondialdehyde and lactic acid. Moreover, citicoline suppressed the activities of calpain, and enhanced the levels of calpastatin, myelin basic protein and αII-spectrin in traumatic tissue 24 h after CHI. Also, it attenuated the axonal and myelin sheath damage in corpus callosum and the neuronal cell death in hippocampal CA1 and CA3 subfields 7 days after CHI. These data demonstrate the protection of citicoline against white matter and grey matter damage due to CHI through suppressing oxidative stress and calpain over-activation, providing additional support to the application of citicoline for the treatment of traumatic brain injury.

Abstract
The molecular and cellular mechanisms, which coordinate the critical stages of brain development to reach a normal structural organization with appropriate networks, are progressively being elucidated. Experimental and clinical studies provide evidence of the occurrence of developmental alterations induced by genetic or environmental factors leading to the formation of aberrant networks associated with learning disabilities. Moreover, evidence is accumulating that suggests that also late-onset neurological disorders, even Alzheimer's disease, might be considered disorders of aberrant neural development with pathological changes that are set up at early stages of development before the appearance of the symptoms. Thus, evaluating proteins and pathways that are important in age-related neurodegeneration in the developing brain together with the characterization of mechanisms important during brain development with relevance to brain aging are of crucial importance. In the present review we focus on (1) aspects of neurogenesis with relevance to aging; (2) neurodegenerative disease (NDD)-associated proteins/pathways in the developing brain; and (3) further pathways of the developing or neurodegenerating brains that show commonalities. Elucidation of complex pathogenetic routes characterizing the earliest stage of the detrimental processes that result in pathological aging represents an essential first step toward a therapeutic intervention which is able to reverse these pathological processes and prevent the onset of the disease. Based on the shared features between pathways, we conclude that prevention of NDDs of the elderly might begin during the fetal and childhood life by providing the mothers and their children a healthy environment for the fetal and childhood development.

Abstract
Insulin-like growth factors (IGFs) play crucial roles in regulating cell differentiation, proliferation and apoptosis. In this study, a novel IGF homologue gene (IGF-like) encoded by Singapore grouper iridovirus (SGIV) ORF062R (termed SGIV–IGF), was cloned and characterized. The coding region of SGIV–IGF is 771 bp in length, with a variable number of tandem repeats (VNTR) locus at the 3′-end. We cloned one isoform of this novel gene, 582 bp in length, containing the predicted IGF domain and 3.6 copy numbers of the 27 bp repeat unit. SGIV–IGF was an early transcribed gene during viral infection, and SGIV–IGF was distributed predominantly in the cytoplasm with a diffused granular appearance. Intriguingly, overexpression of SGIV–IGF was able to promote the growth of grouper embryonic cells (GP cells) by promoting G1/S phase transition, which was at least partially dependent on its 3′-end VNTR locus. Furthermore, viral titre assay and real-time quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR) analysis proved that SGIV–IGF could promote SGIV replication in grouper cells. In addition, overexpression of SGIV–IGF mildly facilitated apoptosis in SGIV-infected non-host fathead minnow (FHM) cells. Together, our study demonstrated a novel functional gene of SGIV which may regulate viral replication and cellular processes through multiple mechanisms that appear to be cell type-dependent.

Abstract
The hunting and gathering lifestyle adopted by human ancestors around 2 Ma required a large increase in aerobic activity. High levels of physical activity altered the shape of the human body, enabling access to new food resources (e.g. animal protein) in a changing environment. Recent experimental work provides strong evidence that both acute bouts of exercise and long-term exercise training increase the size of brain components and improve cognitive performance in humans and other taxa. However, to date, researchers have not explored the possibility that the increases in aerobic capacity and physical activity that occurred during human evolution directly influenced the human brain. Here, we hypothesize that proximate mechanisms linking physical activity and neurobiology in living species may help to explain changes in brain size and cognitive function during human evolution. We review evidence that selection acting on endurance increased baseline neurotrophin and growth factor signalling (compounds responsible for both brain growth and for metabolic regulation during exercise) in some mammals, which in turn led to increased overall brain growth and development. This hypothesis suggests that a significant portion of human neurobiology evolved due to selection acting on features unrelated to cognitive performance.

Abstract
Obtaining high-resolution information from a complex system, while maintaining the global perspective needed to understand system function, represents a key challenge in biology. Here we address this challenge with a method (termed CLARITY) for the transformation of intact tissue into a nanoporous hydrogel-hybridized form (crosslinked to a three-dimensional network of hydrophilic polymers) that is fully assembled but optically transparent and macromolecule-permeable. Using mouse brains, we show intact-tissue imaging of long-range projections, local circuit wiring, cellular relationships, subcellular structures, protein complexes, nucleic acids and neurotransmitters. CLARITY also enables intact-tissue in situ hybridization, immunohistochemistry with multiple rounds of staining and de-staining in non-sectioned tissue, and antibody labelling throughout the intact adult mouse brain. Finally, we show that CLARITY enables fine structural analysis of clinical samples, including non-sectioned human tissue from a neuropsychiatric-disease setting, establishing a path for the transmutation of human tissue into a stable, intact and accessible form suitable for probing structural and molecular underpinnings of physiological function and disease.

Abstract
Insulin-like growth factor (IGF) signaling greatly impacts the development and growth of the central nervous system (CNS). IGF-I and IGF-II, two ligands of the IGF system, exert a wide variety of actions both during development and in adulthood, promoting the survival and proliferation of neural cells. The IGFs also influence the growth and maturation of neural cells, augmenting dendritic growth and spine formation, axon outgrowth, synaptogenesis, and myelination. Specific IGF actions, however, likely depend on cell type, developmental stage, and local microenvironmental milieu within the brain. Emerging research also indicates that alterations in IGF signaling likely contribute to the pathogenesis of some neurological disorders. This review summarizes experimental studies and shed light on the critical roles of IGF signaling, as well as its mechanisms, during CNS development.

Abstract
Dilong, also known as earthworm, has been widely used in traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) for thousands of years. Schwann cell migration and proliferation are critical for the regeneration of injured nerves and Schwann cells provide an essentially supportive role for neuron regeneration. However, the molecular mechanisms of migration and proliferation induced by dilongs in Schwann cells remain unclear. Here, we discuss the molecular mechanisms that includes (i) migration signaling, MAPKs (mitogen-activated protein kinases), mediated PAs and MMP2/9 pathway; (ii) survival and proliferative signaling, IGF-I (insulin-like growth factor-I)-mediated PI3K/Akt pathways and (iii) cell cycle regulation. Dilong stimulate RSC96 cell proliferation and migration. It can induce phosphorylation of ERK1/2 and p38, but not JNK, and activate the downstream signaling expression of PAs (plasminogen activators) and MMPs (matrix metalloproteinases) in a time-dependent manner. In addition, Dilong stimulated ERK1/2 and p38 phosphorylation was attenuated by pretreatment with chemical inhibitors (U0126 and SB203580), and small interfering ERK1/2 and p38 RNA, resulting in migration and uPA-related signal pathway inhibition. Dilong also induces the phosphorylation of IGF-I-mediated PI3K/Akt pathway, activates protein expression of PCNA (proliferating cell nuclear antigen) and cell cycle regulatory proteins (cyclin D1, cyclin E and cyclin A) in a time-dependent manner. In addition, it accelerates G1-phase progression with earlier S-phase entry and significant numbers of cells entered the S-phase. The siRNA-mediated knockdown of PI3K that significantly reduces PI3K protein expression levels, resulting in Bcl2 survival factor reduction, revealing a marked blockage of G1 to S transition in proliferating cells. These results reveal the unknown RSC96 cell migration and proliferation mechanism induced by dilong, which find use as a new medicine for nerve regeneration.

While insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) supports neuronal and glial differentiation in the CNS, it is largely unknown whether IGF-I also influences neuronal migration and positioning. We show here that the pattern of olfactory bulb (OB) layering is altered in Igf-I (-/-) mice. In these animals, Tbr1(+)-glutamatergic neurons are misplaced in the mitral cell layer (ML) and the external plexiform layer (EPL). In addition, there are fewer interneurons in the glomerular layer and the EPL of the Igf-I (-/-) mice, and fewer newborn neurons are incorporated into the OB from the forebrain subventricular zone (SVZ). Indeed, neuroblasts accumulate in the postnatal/adult SVZ of Igf-I (-/-) mice. Significantly, the positioning of Tbr1(+)-cells in a primitive ML is stimulated by IGF-I in cultured embryonic OB slices, an effect that is partially repressed by the phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K) inhibitor. In OB cell cultures, IGF-I increases the phosphorylation of disabled1 (P-Dab1), an adaptor protein that is a target of Src family kinases (SFK) in the reelin signalling pathway, whereas reduced P-Dab1 levels were found in Igf-I (-/-) mice. Neuroblast migration from the rostral migratory stream (RMS) explants of postnatal Igf-I (-/-) was similar to that from Igf-I (+/+) explants. However, cell migration was significantly enhanced by IGF-I added to the explants, an effect that was repressed by PI3K and SFK inhibitors. These findings suggest that IGF-I promotes neuronal positioning in the OB and support a role for IGF-I in stimulating neuroblast exit from the SVZ into the RMS, thereby promoting the incorporation of newly formed neurons into the OB.

Abstract
The factors affecting normal oligodendrocyte positioning in the cerebral cortex are unknown. Apart from the white matter, the highest numbers of oligodendrocytes in the rodent cortex are found in Layers V/VI, where the infragranular neurons normally reside. Few, if any, oligodendrocytes are normally found in the superficial cortical layers. To test whether or not this asymmetric positioning of oligodendrocytes is linked to the lamina positions of Layer V/VI projection neurons, mutant mice that cause neuronal layer inversion were examined. In three lines of mutant mice (Reeler, disabled-1, and p35) examined, representing two different genetic signaling pathways, the oligodendrocyte distribution was altered from an asymmetric to a symmetric distribution pattern. Unlike cortical neurons that are inverted in these mutant mice, the lack of oligodendrocyte inversion suggests a decoupling of the genetic mechanisms governing neuronal versus oligodendrocyte patterning. We conclude that oligodendrocyte positioning is not linked to the layer positions of V/VI projection neurons.

Maintenance of white matter integrity in a rat model of radiation-induced cognitive impairment. J Neurol Sci 2009; 285:178-84.

Abstract
Radiation therapy is used widely to treat primary and metastatic brain tumors, but also can lead to delayed neurological complications. Since maintenance of myelin integrity is important for cognitive function, the present study used a rat model that demonstrates spatial learning and memory impairment 12 months following fractionated whole-brain irradiation (WBI) at middle age to investigate WBI-induced myelin changes. In this model, 12-month Fischer 344 x Brown Norway rats received 9 fractions of 5 Gy delivered over 4.5 weeks (WBI rats); Sham-IR rats received anesthesia only. Twelve months later, the brains were collected and measures of white matter integrity were quantified. Qualitative observation did not reveal white matter necrosis one year post-WBI. In addition, the size of major forebrain commissures, the number of oligodendrocytes, the size and number of myelinated axons, and the thickness of myelin sheaths did not differ between the two groups. In summary, both the gross morphology and the structural integrity of myelin were preserved one year following fractionated WBI in a rodent model of radiation-induced cognitive impairment. Imaging studies with advanced techniques including diffusion tensor imaging may be required to elucidate the neurobiological changes associated with the cognitive impairment in this model.

Abstract
Signaling through the type 1 IGF receptor (IGF1R) after interaction with IGF-I is crucial to the normal brain development. Manipulations of the mouse genome leading to changes in the expression of IGF-I or IGF1R significantly alters brain growth, such that IGF-I overexpression leads to brain overgrowth, whereas null mutations in either IGF-I or the IGF1R result in brain growth retardation. IGF-I signaling stimulates the proliferation, survival, and differentiation of each of the major neural lineages, neurons, oligodendrocytes, and astrocytes, as well as possibly influencing neural stem cells. During embryonic life, IGF-I stimulates neuron progenitor proliferation, whereas later it promotes neuron survival, neuritic outgrowth, and synaptogenesis. IGF-I also stimulates oligodendrocyte progenitor proliferation although inhibiting apoptosis in oligodendrocyte lineage cells and stimulating myelin production. These pleiotropic IGF-I activities indicate that other factors provide instructive signals for specific cellular events and that IGF-I acts to facilitate them. Studies of the few humans with IGF-I and/or IGF1R gene mutations indicate that IGF-I serves a similar role in man.

Abstract
Prenatal alcohol exposure can affect brain development, leading to behavioral problems, including overactivity, motor dysfunction and learning deficits. Despite warnings about the effects of drinking during pregnancy, rates of fetal alcohol syndrome remain unchanged and thus, there is an urgent need to identify interventions that reduce the severity of alcohol's teratogenic effects. Insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) is neuroprotective against ethanol-related toxicity and promotes white matter production following a number of insults. Given that prenatal alcohol leads to cell death and white matter deficits, the present study examined whether IGF-I could reduce the severity of behavioral deficits associated with developmental alcohol exposure. Sprague-Dawley rat pups received ethanol intubations (5.25 g/kg/day) or sham intubations on postnatal days (PD) 4-9, a period of brain development equivalent to the third trimester. On PD 10-13, subjects from each treatment received 0 or 10 microg IGF-I intranasally each day. Subjects were then tested on a series of behavioral tasks including open field activity (PD 18-21), parallel bar motor coordination (PD 30-32) and Morris maze spatial learning (PD 45-52). Ethanol exposure produced overactivity, motor coordination impairments, and spatial learning deficits. IGF-I treatment significantly mitigated ethanol's effects on motor coordination, but not on the other two behavioral tasks. These data indicate that IGF-I may be a potential treatment for some of ethanol's damaging effects, a finding that has important implications for children of women who drink alcohol during pregnancy.

Abstract
Amongst the many soluble extracellular factors stimulating intracellular signal transduction pathways and driving cellular processes such as proliferation, differentiation and survival, insulin-like growth factors (IGFs) stand out as indispensable factors for proper oligodendrocyte differentiation and accompanying myelin production. Owing to its potent myelinogenic capacity and its neuroprotective properties, IGFs hold therapeutic potential in demyelinating and neurodengenerative diseases. However, the IGF system is comprised of a complex molecular network involving regulatory binding proteins, proteases, cell surface and extracellular matrix components which orchestrate IGF-specific functions. Thus, the complexity by which these factors are tightly regulated makes a simplistic therapeutic approach towards treating demyelinating conditions unfeasible. In the present review, we address these issues and consider current therapeutic prospects of oligodendrocyte-targeted IGF-based therapies.

Abstract
Previously we demonstrated that insulin-like growth factor-I mediates the sustained phosphorylation of Akt, which is essential for long term survival and protection of glial progenitors from glutamate toxicity. These prosurvival effects correlated with prolonged activation and stability of the insulin-like growth factor type-I receptor. In the present study, we investigated the mechanisms whereby insulin-like growth factor-I signaling, through the insulin-like growth factor type-I receptor, mediates the sustained phosphorylation of Akt. We showed that insulin-like growth factor-I stimulation induced loss of receptors from the cell surface but that surface receptors recovered over time. Blocking receptor internalization inhibited Akt phosphorylation, whereas inhibition of receptor trafficking blocked receptor recovery at the cell surface and the sustained phosphorylation of Akt. Moreover the insulin-like growth factor type-I receptor localized with the transferrin receptor and Rab11-positive endosomes in a ligand-dependent manner, further supporting the conclusion that this receptor follows a recycling pathway. Our results provide evidence that ligand stimulation leads to internalization of the insulin-like growth factor type-I receptor, which mediates Akt phosphorylation, and that receptor recycling sustains Akt phosphorylation in glial progenitors. Mathematical modeling of receptor trafficking further supports these results and predicts an additional kinetic state of the receptor consistent with sustained Akt phosphorylation.

Abstract
Insulin-like growth factor 2 (Igf2), a member of the insulin gene family, is important for brain development and has known neurotrophic properties. Though Igf2, its receptors, and binding proteins, are expressed in the adult CNS, their role in the adult brain is less well-understood. Here we studied how Igf2 deficiency affects brains of adult Igf2 knockout (Igf2(-/-)) mice following neurotoxic insult produced by the glutamate analog kainic acid (KA). Igf2(-/-) mice exhibited attenuated epileptiform activity in response to KA and were less susceptible to hippocampal neurodegeneration compared with Igf2(+/+) mice. Other brain areas protected by the lack of Igf2 included the amygdala complex, septal nuclei, and thalamic region. Apoptosis, as determined by TUNEL and Hoechst 33342 staining, was accordingly less for Igf2(-/-) mice. Hippocampal slices from Igf2(-/-) mice also were protected against the effects epileptogenic effects of KA compared to Igf2(+/+) mice suggesting that neuroprotection afforded by a lack of Igf2 may be developmental in origin and experiments demonstrating enhanced synaptic inhibition in slices taken from Igf2(-/-) mice support this hypothesis. Taken together, these results suggest that Igf2 may be important for mechanisms and circuits that contribute to neurodegeneration and epilepsy.

Abstract
The insulin-like growth factor (IGF) signaling system plays indispensable roles in pre- and post-natal brain growth and development. A large body of studies using both in vivo null mutant and transgenic mice and in vitro neuronal culture techniques indicate that IGF-I acts directly on the brain while IGF-II effects are mediated to a large extent by IGF-II control of placental growth. It appears that all of the mechanisms, except migration, that are involved in normal brain development, e.g., proliferation, apoptosis, maturation and differentiation, are influenced by IGF-I. While IGF system members are produced in the brain, recent reports in post-natal animals indicate that normal brain health and function are dependent upon transfer of circulating IGF-I from the liver and its transfer across the blood brain barrier. Data showing that this phenomenon applies to pre-natal brain growth and development would make an important contribution to fetal physiology. A number of kinase pathways are able to participate in IGF signaling in brain with respect to nutrient restriction; among the most important are the PI3K/AKT, Ras-Raf-MEK-ERK and mTOR-nutrient sensing pathways. Both maternal and fetal IGF-I peripheral plasma concentrations are greatly reduced in nutrient restriction while IGF-II does not appear to be affected. Nutrient restriction also affects IGF binding protein concentrations while effects on the IGF-I receptor appear to vary with the paradigm. Studies on the effects of nutrient restriction on the fetal primate brain in relation to activity of the IGF system are needed to determine the applicability of rodent studies to humans.

Abstract
Insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) has been shown to be a potent agent in promoting the growth and differentiation of oligodendrocyte precursors, and in stimulating myelination during development and following injury. To definitively determine whether IGF-I acts directly on the cells of oligodendrocyte lineage, we generated lines of mice in which the type 1 IGF receptor gene (igf1r) was conditionally ablated either in Olig1 or proteolipid protein expressing cells (termed IGF1R(pre-oligo-ko) and IGF1R(oligo-ko) mice, respectively). Compared with wild type mice, IGF1R(pre-oligo-ko) mice had a decreased volume (by 35-55%) and cell number (by 54-70%) in the corpus callosum (CC) and anterior commissure at 2 and 6 weeks of age, respectively. IGF1R(oligo-ko) mice by 25 weeks of age also showed reductions, albeit less marked, in CC volume and cell number. Unlike astrocytes, the percentage of NG2(+) oligodendrocyte precursors was decreased by approximately 13% in 2-week-old IGF1R(pre-oligo-ko) mice, while the percentage of CC1(+) mature oligodendrocytes was decreased by approximately 24% in 6-week-old IGF1R(pre-oligo-ko) mice and approximately 25% in 25-week-old IGF1R(oligo-ko) mice. The reduction in these cells is apparently a result of decreased proliferation and increased apoptosis. These results indicate that IGF-I directly affects oligodendrocytes and myelination in vivo via IGF1R, and that IGF1R signaling in the cells of oligodendrocyte lineage is required for normal oligodendrocyte development and myelination. These data also provide a fundamental basis for developing strategies with the potential to target IGF-IGF1R signaling pathways in oligodendrocyte lineage cells for the treatment of demyelinating disorders.

Abstract
Schwann cell (SC) differentiation to the myelinating phenotype is characterized by the elaboration of a lipid-rich membrane and the expression of myelin-specific proteins. Insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) has been identified as a growth factor that stimulates the early events of myelination in SCs that signals via the PI3K/Akt pathway. Given the role of IGF-1 in promoting myelination, we performed studies to determine if the fatty acid biosynthetic pathway was a target of IGF-1 signaling in the formation of myelin membrane in dorsal root ganglion neuron/Schwann cell (DRG/SC) cocultures. We report that the fatty acid profile of lipid extracts of cocultures treated with IGF-1 match that reported for native myelin membrane by electrospray mass spectroscopy analysis. We also demonstrate de novo fatty acid biosynthesis in response to IGF-1 treatment in DRG/SC cocultures metabolically labeled with (13)C-acetate as a carbon source for fatty acid synthesis. Consistent with this finding, Western blot analysis of lysates from both cocultures and purified SCs reveal that IGF-1 stimulates two key fatty acid synthesizing enzymes. Additionally, we show that stimulation of fatty acid synthesizing enzymes is mediated by the PI3K/Akt signaling pathway. We also show that the fatty acid synthesizing enzymes and associated signaling pathways are elevated during the period of myelin membrane formation in sciatic nerve. Collectively, these findings demonstrate that IGF-1 plays an important regulatory function during myelin membrane formation.

Abstract
It has been reported that mutations in the gene encoding human insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) cause syndromic hearing loss. To study the precise role of IGF-I in auditory function and to hypothesize the possible morphological and electrophysiological changes that may occur in the human inner ear, we have analysed the auditory brainstem response in a mouse model of IGF-I deficiency. We show here that homozygous Igf-1(-/-) mice present an all-frequency involved bilateral sensorineural hearing loss. Igf-1(-/-) mice also present a delayed response to acoustic stimuli; this increases along the auditory pathway, indicating a contribution of the central nervous system to the hearing loss in Igf-1(-/-) mice. These results support the use of the Igf-1(-/-) mouse as a new model for the study of human syndromic deafness.

Abstract
Insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) plays a key role in normal development. Recent studies show that IGF-I exerts a wide variety actions in the central nervous system during development as well as in adulthood. This report reviews recent developments on IGF-I actions and its mechanisms in the central nervous system, with a focus on its actions during the development of neural stem cells and progenitors. Available data strongly indicate that IGF-I shortens the length of the cell cycle in neuron progenitors during embryonic life and has an influence on the growth of all neural cell types. The phosphatidylinositol-3 kinase/Akt and mitogen-activated protein kinase pathways seem to be the predominant mediators of IGF-I-stimulated neural cell proliferation and survival. IGF-I actions, however, likely depend on cell type, developmental stage, and microenvironmental milieu.

Abstract
IGF action has been implicated in the promotion of oxidative stress and aging in invertebrate and murine models. However, some in vitro models suggest that IGF-I specifically prevents neuronal oxidative damage. To investigate whether IGF-I promotes or retards brain aging, we evaluated signs of oxidative stress and neuropathological aging in brains from 400-d-old Igf1-/- and wild-type (WT) mice. Lipofuscin pigment accumulation reflects oxidative stress and aging, but we found no difference in lipofuscin deposition in Igf1-/- and WT brains. Likewise, there was no apparent difference in accumulation of nitrotyrosine residues in Igf1-/- and WT brains, except for layer IV/V of the cerebral cortex, where these proteins were about 20% higher in the Igf1-/- brain (P = 0.03). We found no difference in the levels of oxidative stress-related enzymes, neuronal nitric oxide synthase, inducible nitric oxide synthase, and superoxide dismutase in Igf1-/- and WT brains. Tau is a microtubule-associated protein that causes the formation of neurofibrillary tangles and senile plaques as it becomes hyperphosphorylated in the aging brain. Tau phosphorylation was dramatically increased on two specific residues, Ser-396 and Ser-202, both glycogen synthase kinases target sites implicated in neurodegeneration. These observations indicate that IGF-I has a major role in regulating tau phosphorylation in the aging brain, whereas its role in promoting or preventing oxidative stress remains uncertain.

Abstract
In recent years, much interest has been devoted to defining the role of the IGF system in the nervous system. The ubiquitous IGFs, their cell membrane receptors, and their carrier binding proteins, the IGFBPs, are expressed early in the development of the nervous system and are therefore considered to play a key role in these processes. In vitro studies have demonstrated that the IGF system promotes differentiation and proliferation and sustains survival, preventing apoptosis of neuronal and brain derived cells. Furthermore, studies of transgenic mice overexpressing components of the IGF system or mice with disruptions of the same genes have clearly shown that the IGF system plays a key role in vivo.

Abstract
Insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) has multiple effects within the developing nervous system but its role in neurogenesis in the adult nervous system is less clear. The adult olfactory mucosa is a site of continuing neurogenesis that expresses IGF-I, its receptor and its binding proteins. The aim of the present study was to investigate the roles of IGF-I in regulating proliferation and differentiation in the olfactory mucosa. The action of IGF-I was assayed in serum-free culture combined with bromodeoxyuridine-labelling of proliferating cells and immunochemistry for specific cell types. IGF-I and its receptor were expressed by globose basal cells (the neuronal precursor) and by olfactory neurons. IGF-I reduced the numbers of proliferating neuronal precursors, induced their differentiation into neurons and promoted morphological differentiation of neurons. The evidence suggests that IGF-I is an autocrine and/or paracrine signal that induces neuronal precursors to differentiate into olfactory sensory neurons. These effects appear to be similar to the cellular effects of IGF-I in the developing nervous system.

Abstract
Protein kinase B is implicated in many crucial cellular processes, such as metabolism, apoptosis and cell proliferation. In contrast to Pkb(alpha) and Pkb(beta)-deficient mice, Pkb(gamma)(-/-) mice are viable, show no growth retardation and display normal glucose metabolism. However, in adult Pkb(gamma)mutant mice, brain size and weight are dramatically reduced by about 25%. In vivo magnetic resonance imaging confirmed the reduction of Pkb(gamma)(-/-) brain volumes with a proportionally smaller ventricular system. Examination of the major brain structures revealed no anatomical malformations except for a pronounced thinning of white matter fibre connections in the corpus callosum. The reduction in brain weight of Pkb(gamma)(-/-) mice is caused, at least partially, by a significant reduction in both cell size and cell number. Our results provide novel insights into the physiological role of Pkb(gamma) and suggest a crucial role in postnatal brain development.

Abstract
Insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I), a peptide closely related to insulin, is known to play crucial roles in brain development. While the central sites of action of IGF-I in higher vertebrates are now well established, surprisingly little is known in the teleost model where the brain undergoes continual, indeterminate, growth. In this study, we have mapped the distribution of putative IGF-I receptor (IGF-IR) binding sites in the brain of the brown trout using both ligand binding in vitro autoradiography and immunohistochemistry. The presence of IGF binding proteins (IGFBPs) was further studied by competitive inhibition using unlabelled IGF-I and des-(1-3)-IGF-I. In both juvenile and adult trout brain, [125I]IGF-I binding was highest in cerebellum and optic tectum, both regions of the teleost brain known to grow the most actively throughout life. At the cellular level, IGF-IR immunoreactivity was confirmed on cell bodies and dendrites, particularly of larger presumptive neurons including purkinje cells and dendritic fibres throughout the molecular layer of the cerebellum. Abundant IGF-IR expression in hypothalamic regions may further be related to neuron growth while a possible hypophysiotropic role will require further investigation. Competitive inhibition studies employing des-(1-3)-IGF-I also suggest IGFBPs are present in all regions exhibiting high [125I]IGF-I ligand binding and confirms the presence of this important regulatory component of the IGF-I system in the teleost brain. The importance of the IGF-I system in brain development, particularly in regions such as the cerebellum, together with the continual lifetime growth of the fish central nervous system, suggest the teleost brain is an extremely useful site for studying the actions of IGF-I in relation to neuron proliferation, growth, and survival in an adult brain.

Abstract
Studies of Drosophila and mammals have revealed the importance of insulin signaling through phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase and the serine/threonine kinase Akt/protein kinase B for the regulation of cell, organ, and organismal growth. In mammals, three highly conserved proteins, Akt1, Akt2, and Akt3, comprise the Akt family, of which the first two are required for normal growth and metabolism, respectively. Here we address the function of Akt3. Like Akt1, Akt3 is not required for the maintenance of normal carbohydrate metabolism but is essential for the attainment of normal organ size. However, in contrast to Akt1-/- mice, which display a proportional decrease in the sizes of all organs, Akt3-/- mice present a selective 20% decrease in brain size. Moreover, although Akt1- and Akt3-deficient brains are reduced in size to approximately the same degree, the absence of Akt1 leads to a reduction in cell number, whereas the lack of Akt3 results in smaller and fewer cells. Finally, mammalian target of rapamycin signaling is attenuated in the brains of Akt3-/- but not Akt1-/- mice, suggesting that differential regulation of this pathway contributes to an isoform-specific regulation of cell growth.

Abstract
Insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) is widely expressed in the central nervous system (CNS). Whereas during normal development IGF-I is expressed predominantly by neurons and to a much lesser degree by glial cells, its expression in astrocytes, and often in microglia, is increased during and/or after variety of CNS injuries. Recently we have generated a new line of IGF-I Tg mice, called IGF-I(Ast/Tet-Off) Tg mice, in which IGF-I transgene is expressed specifically in astrocytes and is tightly controlled by the tetracycline analog doxycycline. In this study we examined whether IGF-I derived from astrocytes is capable of promoting neural cell growth during development. When the IGF-I transgene is allowed to be expressed, IGF-I(Ast/Tet-Off) Tg mice exhibit markedly increases in 1) brain weight; 2) brain DNA and protein abundance; and 3) number of neurons, oligodendrocytes, and astrocytes, as well as myelination, findings similar to those observed in our other lines of Tg mice that express IGF-I transgene predominantly in neurons. Unlike Tg mice with neuron-specific IGF-I expression, which manifest marked increases in the concentrations of oligodendrocyte/myelin-specific proteins, however, IGF-I(Ast/Tet-Off) Tg mice exhibit an increase in the concentration of glial fibrillary acidic protein, an astrocyte-specific protein. Furthermore, when transgene expression is blunted, brain overgrowth in IGF-I(Ast/Tet-Off) Tg mice ceases. Our data indicate that astrocyte-derived IGF-I is capable of promoting neural cells growth in vivo. Our data also suggest that IGF-I's actions in CNS depend in part on the location of its expression and cellular microenvironment and that continuous presence of IGF-I expression is necessary for brain overgrowth.

Abstract
The homologous insulin and insulin-like growth factor (IGF) receptors are both expressed in the brain, in overlapping but distinct neuroanatomical patterns. In contrast to insulin, IGF1 is also highly expressed within the brain and is essential for normal brain development. IGF1 promotes projection neuron growth, dendritic arborization and synaptogenesis. IGF1 acts in an autocrine and/or paracrine manner to promote glucose utilization, using phosphatidylinositol 3 kinase (PI3K)/Akt, also known as protein kinase B (PKB)/glycogen synthase kinase 3beta (GSK3beta) pathways similar to insulin signaling in peripheral tissues. IGF1 promotes neuronal survival during normal brain development mainly in hippocampal and olfactory systems that depend on postnatal neurogenesis. IGF1's anabolic and neuroprotective roles may be coordinated by inhibition of GSK3beta. The identification of GSK3beta as a major target of brain IGF1 signaling provides a unifying pathway for IGF1's well-established anabolic and anti-apoptotic functions, with IGF1-induced inhibition of GSK3beta triggering multifaceted anabolic and neuroprotective effects.

Abstract
The ketogenic diet is a very low-carbohydrate, high-fat diet used to treat refractory epilepsy. We hypothesized that this diet may act by increasing expression of glutamic acid decarboxylase (GAD), the rate-limiting enzyme in gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) synthesis. Thus, we evaluated brain GAD levels in a well-established, seizure-suppressing, rodent model of the ketogenic diet. Because the diet is most effective when administered with a modest ( approximately 10%) calorie restriction, we studied three groups of animals: rats fed ad libitum standard rat chow (Ad lib-Std); calorie-restricted standard chow (CR-Std); and an isocaloric, calorie-restricted ketogenic diet (CR-Ket). We found that GAD67 mRNA was significantly increased in the inferior and superior colliculi and cerebellar cortex in both CR diet groups compared with control (e.g., by 45% in the superior colliculus and by 71% in the cerebellar cortex; P <.001). GAD65 mRNA was selectively increased in the superior colliculus and temporal cortex in both CR-Std and CR-Ket diet groups compared with ad lib controls. The only apparent CR-Ket-specific effect was a 30% increase in GAD67 mRNA in the striatum (P =.03). Enhanced GAD immunoreactivity was detected in parallel with the mRNA changes. These data clearly show that calorie restriction increases brain GAD65 and -67 expression in several brain regions, independent of ketogenic effects. These observations may explain why caloric restriction improves the efficacy of the ketogenic diet in treating epilepsy and suggest that diet modification might be useful in treatment of a number of brain disorders characterized by impaired GAD or GABA activity.

Abstract
Estrogen protects neurons from a variety of experimental insults in vitro, and is thought to protect from acute and chronic neurodegenerative processes in vivo. Estrogen also enhances higher-level cognitive functions that are centered in the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) in human and non-human primates. To investigate genomic mechanisms involved in estrogenic effects on the primate brain in vivo, we compared transcription factor mRNA and protein expression in the DLPFC of ovariectomized rhesus monkeys treated with either vehicle or estradiol (E2). c-FOS, E2F1, and general transcription factor IIB (TFIIB) mRNA and protein expression were altered significantly by short-term E2 treatment, as shown by DNA array, in situ hybridization, and immunohistochemical and immunoblot evaluations. C-FOS expression was increased significantly whereas E2F1 and TFIIB levels were decreased in the DLPFC of E2-treated animals. These transcription factors were concentrated in cortical pyramids, as were estrogen receptors alpha and beta. These data indicate that estrogen may have direct as well as indirect effects on neuronal gene expression in the primate prefrontal cortex.

Abstract
The aim of the present study was to investigate the potential direct effects of insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) on adult rat hippocampal stem/progenitor cells (AHPs). IGF-I-treated cultures showed a dose-dependent increase in thymidine incorporation, total number of cells, and number of cells entering the mitosis phase. Pretreatment with fibroblast growth factor-2 (FGF-2) increased the IGF-I receptor (IGF-IR) expression, and both FGF-2 and IGF-I were required for maximal proliferation. Time-lapse recordings showed that IGF-I at 100 ng/ml decreased differentiation and increased proliferation of single AHPs. Specific inhibition of mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase (MAPKK), phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3-K), or the downstream effector of the PI3-K pathway, serine/threonine p70 S6 kinase (p70(S6K)), showed that both the MAPK and the PI3-K pathways participate in IGF-I-induced proliferation but that the MAPK activation is obligatory. These results were confirmed with dominant-negative constructs for these pathways. Stimulation of differentiation was found at a low dose (1 ng/ml) of IGF-I, clonal analysis indicating an instructive component of IGF-I signaling.

Abstract
The docking protein p62Dok-1 (Dok-1) has a central role in cell signaling mediated by a wide range of protein tyrosine kinases, including intrinsic membrane kinases, such as the insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) receptor. To elucidate potential IGF signaling mechanisms, we used DNA array technology to investigate novel kinase targets expressed in the primate dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC). Dok-1 transcripts were among the most abundant found in this structure. Because Dok-1 expression has not been characterized in brain, we evaluated its expression pattern using immunoblotting, in situ hybridization, and immunohistochemistry in the rhesus monkey prefrontal cortex and hippocampal formation. Dok-1 antibodies identified a 62-kDa band in lysates from the DLPFC, consistent with the known size for Dok-1. In situ hybridization showed that Dok-1 mRNA was expressed in all layers of the DLPFC and in all neuronal subregions of the hippocampal formation. Immunohistochemical analysis showed Dok-1 immunoreactivity concentrated in pyramidal neurons of cortical layers IV-V and throughout Ammon's horn and in granule neurons of the dentate gyrus. Dok-1 expression was also identified in endothelial cells of cerebral blood vessels. These expression patterns are very similar to those of the IGF-1 receptor and suggest that Dok-1 could be among the downstream targets of IGF signaling in areas of the primate brain involved in learning and memory.

Abstract
Neurons that connect mechanosensory hair cell receptors to the central nervous system derive from the otic vesicle from where otic neuroblasts delaminate and form the cochleovestibular ganglion (CVG). Local signals interact to promote this process, which is autonomous and intrinsic to the otic vesicle. We have studied the expression and activity of insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) during the formation of the chick CVG, focusing attention on its role in neurogenesis. IGF-1 and its receptor (IGFR) were detected at the mRNA and protein levels in the otic epithelium and the CVG. The function of IGF-1 was explored in explants of otic vesicle by assessing the formation of the CVG in the presence of anti-IGF-1 antibodies or the receptor competitive antagonist JB1. Interference with IGF-1 activity inhibited CVG formation in growth factor-free media, revealing that endogenous IGF-1 activity is essential for ganglion generation. Analysis of cell proliferation cell death, and expression of the early neuronal antigens Tuj-1, Islet-1/2, and G4 indicated that IGF-1 was required for survival, proliferation, and differentiation of an actively expanding population of otic neuroblasts. IGF-1 blockade, however, did not affect NeuroD within the otic epithelium. Experiments carried out on isolated CVG showed that exogenous IGF-1 induced cell proliferation, neurite outgrowth, and G4 expression. These effects of IGF-1 were blocked by JB1. These findings suggest that IGF-1 is essential for neurogenesis by allowing the expansion of a transit-amplifying neuroblast population and its differentiation into postmitotic neurons. IGF-1 is one of the signals underlying autonomous development of the otic vesicle.

Abstract
We examined the role of IGF signaling in the remyelination process by disrupting the gene encoding the type 1 IGF receptor (IGF1R) specifically in the mouse brain by Cre-mediated recombination and then exposing these mutants and normal siblings to cuprizone. This neurotoxicant induces a demyelinating lesion in the corpus callosum that is reversible on termination of the insult. Acute demyelination and oligodendrocyte depletion were the same in mutants and controls, but the mutants did not remyelinate adequately. We observed that oligodendrocyte progenitors did not accumulate, proliferate, or survive within the mutant mice, compared with wild type, indicating that signaling through the IGF1R plays a critical role in remyelination via effects on oligodendrocyte progenitors.

Abstract
This study evaluated somatic and dendritic growth of neurons in the frontoparietal cortex of Igf1-/- brains. Pyramidal neuron density was increased by approximately 25% (P =.005) and soma size reduced by approximately 10% (P <.001). Golgi staining revealed that cortical layer II-III neurons exhibited a significant reduction in dendritic length and complexity in Igf1 null mice. Dendritic spine density and presumably synaptic contacts were reduced by 16% (P =.002). Similar findings were obtained for cortical layer V and piriform cortex pyramids. Supporting a reduction in synapses, synaptotagmin levels were reduced by 30% (P <.02) in the Igf1 null brain. Investigation of factors critically involved in dendritic growth and synaptogenesis showed an approximately 50% reduction in cortical CDC42 protein expression (P <.001) and an approximately 10% reduction in brain cholesterol levels (P <.01) in Igf1 null mice. Evidence is presented that Igf1 deletion causes disruptions in lipid and microtubule metabolism, leading to impaired neuronal somatic and dendritic growth. Published 2003 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

Abstract
The multifunctional proteins leukemia inhibitory factor (LIF) and insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I) are expressed in overlapping patterns during development and, therefore, may act cooperatively. We show that mice doubly deficient in LIF and IGF-I all died at birth of apparent respiratory failure. Growth retardation, muscle hypoplasia and delayed ossification in IGF-I-deficient E18.5 mice were exacerbated by the absence of LIF. The transcription factor Sp3 was decreased in the skeleton of the double null mice. Pronounced depletion of olfactory bulb neurons, in contrast, was only IGF-I-dependent. The lungs displayed reduced air space in the IGF-I-deficient embryos and neonates, phenotype exacerbated in the double nulls, which showed abnormal epithelial cells and decreased Sp3 expression. In addition, the transcription factor TTF-1 and the surfactant protein B were lower in the lung of the double null neonates than in all other genotypes. LIF and IGF-I, thus, have cooperative and distinct tissue functions during development. Their essential role in bone ossification apparently involves Sp3, and in lung maturation Sp3 together with TTF-1.

Abstract
Tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha), a proinflammatory cytokine, has been implicated in the pathogenesis of several disorders and injuries in the central nervous system (CNS). Unlike IGF-I, which promotes CNS growth, TNF-alpha causes brain growth retardation and neural damage. Recently TNF-alpha has been shown to inhibit IGF-I signaling and actions in non-neural tissue. To investigate whether TNF-alpha deleteriously influences brain growth by altering the IGF-I system in vivo, we examined the expression of IGF-I, the type 1 IGF receptor (IGF1R) and IGF binding proteins (IGFBPs) in the brain of transgenic (Tg) mice with murine TNF-alpha overexpression. We show that overexpression of TNF-alpha reduces the weights of whole brain and all brain regions examined during development. In adult TNF-alpha Tg mice, cerebellum (CB) exhibited the greatest reduction in weight among the five brain regions examined, being approximately 77% of that in wild-type (WT) mice. IGF-I abundance was decreased in the CB, as well as in cerebral cortex and diencephalon, of TNF-alpha Tg mice. When compared to those in WT mice, CB IGF-I abundance in Tg mice was reduced by approximately 35%, approximately 45%, and approximately 40% at 2, 6, and 9 weeks of age, respectively. Of the IGFBPs studied the abundance of IGFBP-3 and IGFBP-4 was increased by 2-3.7-fold, and the abundance of IGFBP-5 was decreased by approximately 3-fold (as judged by Western immunoblot analysis). Histological analysis and immunocytochemical staining confirmed that TNF-alpha specifically increases IGFBP-3 and IGFBP-4 immunoreactivity, as well as that of the IGF1R, in radial glial and Purkinje cells. In addition, TNF-alpha alters CB cytoarchitecture, apparently by influencing granule cell migration. Our data indicate that TNF-alpha alters the expression of IGF-I system proteins in vivo, and suggest that altered expression of IGF-I system proteins may in part explain TNF-alpha deleterious actions on brain growth.

Locally born olfactory bulb stem cells proliferate in response to insulin-related factors and require endogenous insulin-like growth factor-I for differentiation into neurons and glia. J Neurosci 2003; 23:895-906. [PMID: 12574418 PMCID: PMC6741904] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/27/2002] [Revised: 10/31/2002] [Accepted: 11/01/2002] [Indexed: 02/28/2023] Open
Abstract
After late embryogenesis, new neurons are continuously added to the olfactory bulb (OB) from stem cells located in the forebrain subventricular zone. Nonetheless, stem cells have not been described within the embryonic olfactory bulb. Here we report the isolation of local olfactory bulb stem cells from the embryonic day 12.5-14.5 mouse embryo. These cells were 99.2% nestin positive and proliferated extensively in culture to at least 150 cell doublings. Clonal analysis demonstrated that neurons (TuJ1(+)), astrocytes (GFAP(+)), and oligodendrocytes (O4(+)) could be generated from single-plated cells, indicating that they are multipotent. At least 90% of proliferating cells expressed insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I), (pro)insulin, and their cognate receptors; these growth factors collaborated with fibroblast growth factor-2 plus epidermal growth factor (EGF) to promote stem cell proliferation and sphere formation. Cells from Igf-I(-)/- mice, however, proliferated as extensively as did Igf-I(+/+) cells. Differentiation and survival of stem cell-generated neurons and glia showed strong dependence on exogenous IGF-I, but oligodendrocyte differentiation also required insulin at low concentration. Furthermore, the percentages of stem cell-generated neurons, astrocytes, and oligodendrocytes were markedly lower in the cultures prepared from the Igf-I(-)/- mice compared with those of Igf-I(+/+). Concordantly, lack of IGF-I resulted in abnormal formation of the olfactory bulb mitral cell layer and altered radial glia morphology. These results support the presence within the embryonic mouse olfactory bulb of stem cells with specific requirements for insulin-related growth factors for proliferation or differentiation. They demonstrate that IGF-I is an endogenous factor regulating the differentiation of stem and other precursor cells within the olfactory bulb.

Abstract
Evidence suggests that insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) plays an important role during brain development and in the maintenance of normal as well as activity-dependent functioning of the adult brain. Apart from its trophic effects, IGF-I has also been implicated in the regulation of brain neurotransmitter release thus indicating a neuromodulatory role for this growth factor in the central nervous system. Using in vitro slice preparations, we have earlier reported that IGF-I potently inhibits K(+)-evoked endogenous acetylcholine (ACh) release from the adult rat hippocampus and cortex but not from the striatum. The effects of IGF-I on hippocampal ACh release was sensitive to the Na(+) channel blocker tetrodotoxin, suggesting that IGF-I might act indirectly via the release of other transmitters/modulators. In the present study, we have characterized the possible involvement of GABA in IGF-I-mediated inhibition of ACh release and measured the effects of this growth factor on choline acetyltransferase (ChAT) activity and high-affinity choline uptake in the hippocampus of the adult rat brain. Prototypical agonists of GABA(A) and GABA(B) receptors (i.e. 10 microM muscimol and 10 microM baclofen) inhibited, whereas the antagonists of the respective receptors (i.e. 10 microM bicuculline and 10 microM phaclofen) potentiated K(+)-evoked ACh release from rat hippocampal slices. IGF-I (10 nM) inhibited K(+)- as well as veratridine-evoked ACh release from rat hippocampal slices and the effect is possibly mediated via the activation of a typical IGF-I receptor and the subsequent phosphorylation of the insulin receptor substrate-1 (IRS-1). The inhibitory effects of IGF-I on hippocampal ACh release were not additive to those of either muscimol or baclofen, but were attenuated by GABA antagonists, bicuculline and phaclofen. Additionally, in contrast to ACh release, IGF-I did not alter either the activity of the enzyme ChAT or the uptake of choline in the hippocampus. These results, taken together, indicate that IGF-I, under acute conditions, can decrease hippocampal ACh release by acting on the typical IGF-I/IRS receptor complex while having no direct effect on ChAT activity or the uptake of choline. Furthermore, the evidence that effects of IGF-I could be modulated, at least in part, by GABA antagonists suggest that the release of GABA and the activation of its receptors may possibly be involved in mediating the inhibitory effects of IGF-I on hippocampal ACh release.
