    Brain-derived neurotropic factor (BDNF) promotes molecular polarization and differentiation of immature neuroblastoma cells into definitive neurons

  • Original language description

    Throughout development, neuronal progenitors undergo complex transformation into polarized nerve cells, warranting the directional flow of information in a neural grid. The majority of neuronal polarization studies have been carried out on rodent-derived precursor cells, programmed to develop into neurons. Unlike these rodent neuronal cells, SH-SY5Y cells derived from human bone marrow present a sub-clone of neuroblastoma line, with transformation into neuron-like cells showing a range of highly instructive neurobiological characteristics. We applied two-step retinoic acid (RA) and brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) protocol to monitor the conversion of undifferentiated SH-SY5Y cells into neuron-like cells with distinctly polarized axon-dendritic morphology and formation of bona fide synaptic connections. We show that BDNF is a key driver and regulator of the expression of axonal marker tau and dendritic microtubule-associated protein-2 (MAP2), with their sorting to distinct cellular compartments. Using selective kinase inhibitors downregulating BDNF-TrkB signaling, we show that constitutive activation of TrkB receptor is essential for the maintenance of established polarization of SH-SY5Y cells. Importantly, the proximity ligation assay applied in our preparation demonstrates that differentiating neuron-like cells develop elaborate synaptic connections enriched with hallmark pre- and postsynaptic proteins. Described herein observations highlight several fundamental processes related to neuronal polarization and synaptogenesis in human-derived cells, which are of major relevance to neuronal biology, neurodevelopment, and translational neuroscience.
