title: Activities of enzymes of acetyl-CoA and acetylcholine metabolism in SN56 hybrid cholinergic cell line differentiated by dibutyryl cyclic AMP and all-trans retinoic acid.
abstract: Cholinergic hybrid mouse septal neurons SN56 were differentiated by separate and combined application of 0.001 mM all-trans-retinoic acid and 1 mM dibutyryl cAMP. Each of agents caused about twofold increase of choline acetyltransferase activity. These activatory effects were additive. Dibutyryl cAMP resulted in twofold increase of ATP-citrate lyase and acetylcholinesterase activities. Retinoic acid did not affect these enzyme activities but partially abolished activatory effects of dibutyryl cAMP. Pyruvate dehydrogenase and other enzymes of acetyl-CoA metabolism were not affected by this treatment. This work demonstrates that it is possible to rise cholinergic neurons of different expression of cholinergic and acetyl-CoA metabolism.
