The mitogen-activated protein kinase/extracellular signal-regulated
kinase (MAPK/ERK) signaling cascade contributes to synaptic plasticity and to long-term memory formation, yet whether MAPK/ERK controls activity-dependent gene expression critical for long-lasting changes at the synapse and what the events underlying transduction of
the signal are remain uncertain. Here we show that induction of
long-term potentiation (LTP) in the dentate gyrus in
vivo leads to rapid phosphorylation and nuclear translocation
of MAPK/ERK. Following a similar time course, the two downstream
transcriptional targets of MAPK/ERK, cAMP response element-binding
protein (CREB) and the ternary complex factor Elk-1, a key
transcriptional-regulator of serum response element (SRE)-driven gene
expression, were hyperphosphorylated and the immediate early gene
zif268 was upregulated. The mRNA encoding MAP kinase phosphatase MKP-1
was upregulated at the time point when MAPK/ERK phosphorylation had
returned to basal levels, suggesting a negative feedback loop to
regulate deactivation of MAPK/ERK. We also show that inhibition of the
MAPK/ERK cascade by the MAPK kinase MEK inhibitor SL327
prevented CREB and Elk-1 phosphorylation, and LTP-dependent gene
induction, resulting in rapidly decaying LTP. In conclusion, we suggest
that Elk-1 forms an important link in the MAP kinase pathway to
transduce signals from the cell surface to the nucleus to activate the
genetic machinery necessary for the maintenance of synaptic plasticity
in the dentate gyrus. Thus, MAPK/ERK activation is required for
LTP-dependent transcriptional regulation and we suggest this is
regulated by two parallel signaling pathways, the MAPK/ERK-Elk-1
pathway targeting SRE and the MAPK/ERK-CREB pathway targeting CRE.
