We performed a comparative in vitro study of the involvement of NF-κB, PI3K, cAMP, ERK1/2, p38, JAKs, STAT3, JNK, and p53-dependent intracellular signaling in the functioning of neural stem cells (NSC) under the influence of basic fibroblast growth factor (FGF) and FGF receptor agonist, diterpene alkaloid songorine. The significant differences in FGFR-mediated intracellular signaling in NSC were revealed for these ligands. In both cases, stimulation of progenitor cell proliferation occurs with the participation of NF-κB, PI3K, ERK1/2, JAKs, and STAT3, while JNK and p53, on the contrary, inhibit cell cycle progression. However, under the influence of songorin, cAMP- and p38-mediated cascades are additionally involved in the transmission of the NSC division-activating signal. In addition, unlike FGF, the alkaloid stimulates progenitor cell differentiation by activating ERK1/2, p38, JNK, p53, and STAT3.
