[A decrease of neuroprotector effect of ganglioside GM1 on PC12 cells under conditions of oxidative stress in the presence of inhibitor of tyrosine kinase of Trk-receptors].

Effects of inhibitors of tyrosine kinases (K-252a, genistein) and of phospholipase A2 (bromophenacetyl bromide) on viability of PC12 cells are studied in the presence of hydrogen peroxide and ganglioside GM1. The degree of inhibition of hydrogen peroxide cytotoxic effect by ganglioside GM1 amounted to 52.8 +/- 4.3 %. However, in the presence in the medium of 0.1 and 1 microM inhibitors of tyrosine kinase of Trk-receptors (K-252a) it was as low as 32.7 +/- 6.5 % and 11.7 +/- 9.8 %, respectively. GM1 prevented Na+, K+-ATPase produced by H2O2, but in the presence of 1 microM K-252a this effect was practically not pronounced. In the presence of another inhibitor of tyrosine kinases--genistein, a tendency for a decrease of the GM1 protective effect was observed at its concentrations 0.1 and 1 microM, whereas at a higher concentration 10 microM genistein depressed the GM1 neuroprotective effect statistically significantly. It was found that inhibitor of phospholipase A2 bromophenacetyl bromide did not affect the action of GM1 aimed at increasing the viability of cells under action of hydrogen peroxide on them. It seems that this enzyme is not involved in the cascade of reactions participating in realization of the ganglioside protective effect. Thus, inhibitor of tyrosine kinase of Trk-receptors K-252 decreases or practically prevents the ganglioside GM1 neuroprotective effect of PC12 cells under stress conditions; the same ability is characteristic of genistein--an inhibitor of tyrosine kinases of the wider spectrum of action.
