摘要：
Identification of AP-1 target genes in apoptosis and differentiation has proved elusive. Secretogranin II (SgII) is a protein widely distributed in nervous and endocrine tissues, and abundant in neuroendocrine granules. We addressed whether SgII is regulated by AP-1, and if SgII is involved in neuronal differentiation or the cellular response to nitrosative stress. Nitric oxide (NO) upregulated sgII mRNA dependent on a cyclic AMP response element (CRE) in the sgII promoter, and NO stimulated SgII protein secretion in neuroblastoma cells. Upregulation of sgII mRNA, sgII CRE-driven gene expression and SgII protein synthesis/export were attenuated in cells transformed with dominant-negative c-Jun (TAM67), which became sensitized to NO-induced apoptosis and failed to undergo nerve growth factor-dependent neuronal differentiation. Stable transformation of TAM67 cells with sgII restored neuronal differentiation and resistance to NO. RNAi knockdown of sgII in cells expressing functional c-Jun abolished neuronal differentiation and rendered the cells sensitive to NO-induced apoptosis. Therefore, SgII represents a key AP-1-regulated protein that counteracts NO toxicity and mediates neuronal differentiation of neuroblastoma cells.
