The chain of events that results in increased production of nerve growth factor (NGF) following beta-adrenergic receptor (BAR) stimulation has been investigated in the C6-2B rat astrocytoma cell line. Exposure of these cells to the BAR agonist isoproterenol elicits the following cascade of events: (i) increase of cAMP content; (ii) increase of c-Fos mRNA content; (iii) accumulation of c-Fos protein immunoreactivity in the nucleus; (iv) increase of NGF mRNA content. The increase in c-Fos mRNA and its translation product are early events (15 and 40 min, respectively) and precede the accumulation of NGF mRNA, which peaks at 3 hr. The increase in the two mRNAs appears interrelated because cycloheximide inhibits the accumulation of c-Fos protein and NGF mRNA elicited by isoproterenol. Moreover, the accumulation of nuclear c-Fos protein and NGF mRNA induced by BAR stimulation is reduced by 2-aminopurine, an inhibitor of c-Fos mRNA induction. These data suggest that, in C6-2B astrocytoma cells, the nuclear accumulation of c-Fos protein is required for the induction of NGF mRNA expression by BAR stimulation.
