What is Rapid induction and Ca^2+^ influx‐mediated suppression of vitamin D3 up‐regulated protein 1 (VDUP1) mRNA in cerebellar granule neurons undergoing apoptosis about?

Cerebellar granule neurons (CGNs) grown under depolarizing conditions with high K^+^ (HK; 30 mm) undergo apoptosis following replacement of HK by physiological K^+^ (5.4 mm). Differential display analysis identified eight genes up‐regulated in this paradigm of apoptosis. Vitamin D3 up‐regulated protein 1 (__VDUP1__) mRNA was markedly up‐regulated as early as 2 h following HK withdrawal. __VDUP1__ mRNA was up‐regulated in other paradigms of neuronal apoptosis as well both __in vitro__ and __in vivo__. HK effectively suppressed the up‐regulation of __VDUP1__ mRNA in CGNs undergoing apoptosis via Ca^2+^ influx through voltage‐dependent L‐type Ca^2+^ channels, which did not require __de novo__ protein synthesis. The up‐regulation occurred in parallel with that of the c‐__jun__ transcript and c‐jun protein phosphorylation. Moreover, SB203580, p38 mitogen‐activated protein kinase inhibitor, suppressed up‐regulation of both c‐__jun__ and __VDUP1__ mRNAs, and c‐jun phosphorylation in CGNs undergoing apoptosis. IGF‐1, one of the neuroprotective agents for CGNs, also inhibited __VDUP1__ mRNA up‐regulation through a phosphoinositide 3 kinase‐dependent pathway. These results suggest that the _
