PC-12 cell lysate, derived from the rat pheochromocytoma PC-12 cell line, is widely used in scientific research to study neuronal differentiation and signal transduction mechanisms. PC-12 cells are known for their ability to respond to nerve growth factor (NGF), which induces differentiation into neuron-like cells, making the lysate a valuable tool for investigating neurobiological processes. Researchers utilize PC-12 cell lysate to examine the phosphorylation of various proteins involved in NGF signaling pathways, such as the ERK/MAPK cascade, which plays a crucial role in cell differentiation, survival, and proliferation. Additionally, this lysate is employed to study the regulation of transcription factors like CREB and AP-1, which are essential for neuronal growth and synaptic plasticity. Recent studies have leveraged PC-12 cell lysate to explore the effects of chemical inhibitors and activators on protein kinase activities, providing insights into the modulation of signaling pathways. This lysate is also instrumental in proteomic analyses to identify novel proteins and post-translational modifications involved in neuronal function. By enabling detailed mechanistic studies, PC-12 cell lysate continues to be a vital resource for advancing our understanding of neurobiology and cellular signaling in a controlled experimental environment.
