VDR Regulates BNP Promoting Neurite Growth and Survival of Cochlear Spiral Ganglion Neurons through cGMP-PKG Signaling Pathway
Spiral ganglion neurons (SGNs) are important for hearing, and their peripheral and central processes connect sensory cells of the Corti organ to the central nervous system. The resulting network forms a point-to-point auditory conduction. As a cardiac hormone, brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) binds t...

description | Spiral ganglion neurons (SGNs) are important for hearing, and their peripheral and central processes connect sensory cells of the Corti organ to the central nervous system. The resulting network forms a point-to-point auditory conduction. As a cardiac hormone, brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) binds to natriuretic peptide receptor type A leading to diuresis, vasodilatation, inhibition of renin and aldosterone production, and cardiac and vascular myocyte growth. This study primarily aimed to explore the expression and function of BNP in the rat’s inner ear and elucidate its regulatory mechanism. We determined the expression and function of BNP and found that the vitamin D receptor (VDR) could upregulate the expression of BNP and enhance its function. In SGNs of the rat inner ear, BNP promotes neuron survival and prolongs neurite length through the cGMP-PKG signaling pathway, which could be regulated by VDR and provide a novel approach for neuronal regeneration therapy. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first study to report this potential transcriptional regulatory relationship and will act as a reference for research on neuronal regeneration therapy for SGNs injury. |
