Role of MAPK ERK1/2 and p38 in the Regulation of Secretory Functions of Different Populations of Neuroglia in Ethanol-Induced Neurodegeneration

  • GENERAL PATHOLOGY AND PATHOPHYSIOLOGY

Bulletin of Experimental Biology and Medicine Aims and scope

We studied the participation of ERK1/2 and p38 in secretion of neurotrophic growth factors by various types of neuroglia under conditions of in vitro and in vivo modeled ethanol-induced neurodegeneration. The inhibitory role of these protein kinases in the production of neurotrophins by intact astrocytes and the absence of their participation in the regulation of functions of oligodendrocytes and microglial cells were shown. Under conditions of ethanol neurotoxicity, the role of ERK1/2 and p38 in the production of growth factors by glial elements was significantly changed. Neurodegeneration modeled in vitro led to inversion of the role of both protein kinases in the secretion of neurotrophins by astroglia and inhibition of the cytokine-synthesizing function of oligodendrocytes and microglial cells by ERK1/2 and p38. In mice receiving ethanol per os for a long time (as well as in cells in vitro exposed to ethanol), mitogen-activated kinases stimulated the function of astrocytes and inhibited the production of growth factors by microglial cells. At the same time, chronic alcoholization was accompanied by the appearance of the stimulating role of ERK1/2 and p38 in the implementation of the secretory function by oligodendrocytes.
