| Abstract | Copper (Cu) is an essential biometal involved in a number of cell functions. Abnormal Cu homeostasis has been identified as a major factor in a number of neurodegenerative disorders. However, little is known about how cells of brain origin maintain Cu homeostasis and in particular, how they respond to an elevated Cu environment. Understanding these processes is essential to obtaining a greater insight into the pathological changes in neurodegeneration and ageing. Although previous studies have shown that Cu in neurons can be associated with synaptic function, there is little understanding of how Cu modulates the regulated secretory vesicle pathways in these cells. In this study, we examined the effect of elevated intracellular Cu on proteins associated with the regulated secretory vesicle pathway in NGF-differentiated PC12 cells that exhibit neuronal-like properties. Increasing intracellular Cu with a cell-permeable Cu-complex (CuII(gtsm)) resulted in increased expression of synaptophysin and robust translocation of this and additional vesicular proteins from synaptic-like microvesicle (SLMV) fractions to chromogranin-containing putative large dense core vesicle (LDCV) fractions in density gradient preparations. The LDCV fractions also contained substantially elevated Cu levels upon treatment of cells with CuII(gtsm). Expression of the H+ pump, V-ATPase, which is essential for vesicle maturation, was increased in Cu-treated cells while inhibition of V-ATPase prevented translocation of synaptophysin to LDCV fractions. Cu treatment was found to inhibit release of LDCVs in chromaffin cells due to reduced Ca2+-mediated vesicle exocytosis. Our findings demonstrate that elevated Cu can modulate LDCV metabolism potentially resulting in sequestration of Cu in this vesicle pool. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
