  • SNAP-25 immunoreactivity was translocated into the endings of the processes induced in PC12 cells by dibutyryl-cAMP-treatment. Conversely, the protein was not present in the endings of the processes seen after NGF-treatment unless dibutyryl-cAMP was used simultaneously. This redistribution of SNAP-25 immunoreactivity appeared to be dependent upon new protein synthesis. Finally, dibutyryl-cAMP was capable of inducing SNAP-25 expression.
