Abstract

The tropomyosin-relatedkinase (Trk) family of receptor tyrosine kinases controls synaptic function, plasticity and sustains differentiation, morphology,and neuronal cell survival. UnderstandingTrk receptors down-regulation and recycling is a crucial step to point out sympathetic and sensory neuron function and survival. PC12 cells derived from pheochromocytoma of the rat adrenal medulla have been widely used as a model system for studies of neuronal differentiation as they respond to nerve growth factor (NGF) with a dramatic change in phenotype and acquire a number of properties characteristic of sympathetic neurons. In this study we demonstrated that in PC12 cells theTrkA receptor interacts with the deubiquitinating enzyme USP8/UBPy in a NGF-dependent manner and that it is deubiquitinated in vivo and in vitro by USP8. USP8overexpressionblockedNGF-inducedneuritesoutgrowthwhilethe overexpressionofthecatalyticallyinactivemutantUSP8/UBPyC748A causedamarkedincreaseofcell differentiation.LocalizationandbiochemicalexperimentshavepointoutthatUSP8andTrkApartially co-localizeinendosomesafterNGFstimulation.FinallywehavestudiedtheroleplayedbyUSP8on TrkAturnover;usingspecific siRNAforUSP8wefoundthatUSP8knockdownincreasesTrkAhalf-life, suggestingthatthedeubiquitinatingactivityofUSP8promotesTrkAdegradation.
