Descripción general

Application CHEMICON′s NS225 Neurite Outgrowth Assay Kit (1 μm) utilizes microporous tissue culture insert technology from Millipore and is based on the use of Millicell cell culture inserts (chambers) containing a permeable membrane with 1 μm pores at the base. The inserts are designed to fit into a receiver vessel, which when in use contains differentiation media in contact with the bottom of the insert membrane. The permeable membranes allow for discrimination between neurites and cell bodies, as projecting neurites will pass easily through the pores but cell bodies will not. Therefore, by inducing neurites to traverse these membrane pores, a purified population of neurites is located on the underside of the membrane, distal to the surface on which neural cell bodies are deposited. This kit has has been specifically designed for and validated with PC12 cells. The diameter of PC12 cell bodies is relatively small compared to that of many other cell types commonly used in neurite outgrowth assays [5, 6, 7]. As a result, many PC12 cell bodies may pass though pores larger than 1 μm, significantly obscuring neurite outgrowth assay results. Using a 1 μm pore size greatly reduces background and improves the signal-to-noise ratio in studies using PC12 cells. Use of this 1 μm pore size with larger cell types that extend wider diameter neurites, e.g., N1E-115 cells, will greatly diminish the number of neurites able to project through to the underside of the membrane, and is thus not recommended. The assay is a simple, efficient, and versatile system for the quantitative determination of compounds that influence neurite formation and repulsion. With this system, it is possible to screen numerous biological and pharmacological agents simultaneously, directly evaluate adhesion and guidance receptor functions responsible for neurite extension and repulsion, as well as analyze gene function in transfected cells. The microporous filter allows for biochemical separation and purification of neurites and cell bodies for detailed molecular analysis of protein expression, signal transduction processes and identification of drug targets that regulate neurite outgrowth or retraction processes. Reagents and materials supplied in the NS225 Neurite Outgrowth Assay Kit are sufficient for 12 tests.

Several groups have shown that PC12 will extend microtubule-containing neurites on extracellular matrix (ECM) with no lag period in the absence of nerve growth factor. This is in contrast to nerve growth factor (NGF)-induced neurite outgrowth that occurs with a
