Abstract

Nobility itself induces neurite outgrowth in PC12D cells, a rat pheochromocytoma cell line like NGF and the molecular mechanism of its neurotrophic action. The results suggest that nobiletin induces neurite outgrowth by activating a cAMP/PKA/MEK/Erk/MAP kinase-dependent but not TrkA-dependent signaling pathway coupling with CRE- mediated gene transcription and may become biochemical probe for elucidation of the molecular mechanism of neuronal differentiation.
