Research Abstract |
The cAMP responsive element-binding protein(CREB) functions in a broad array of biological and pathophysiological processes. We found that salt-inducible kinase 2(SIK2) was abundantly expressed in neurons and suppressed CREB-mediated gene expression after oxygen-glucose deprivation(OGD). OGD induced the degradation of SIK2 protein concomitantly with the dephosphorylation of the CREB-specific coactivator transducer of regulated CREB activity 1(TORC1), resulting in the activation of CREB and its downstream gene targets. Ca(2+)/ calmodulin-dependent protein kinase I/ IV are capable of phosphorylating SIK2 at Thr484, resulting in SIK2 degradation in cortical neurons. Neuronal survival after OGD was significantly increased in neurons isolated from sik2(-/-) mice, and ischemic neuronal injury was significantly reduced in the brains of sik2(-/-) mice subjected to transient focal ischemia. These findings suggest that SIK2 plays critical roles in neuronal survival, is modulated by CaMK I/ IV, and regulates CREB via TORC1.
