The generation of amyloid beta (A beta) toxic oligomers during the formation of senile plaques and amyloid fibrils is thought to play a central role in the onset and progression of Alzheimer's disease. A beta production is a physiological process, but the factors that trigger a transition to pathogenic A beta aggregation remain unknown. Posttranslational modifications of A beta could potentially induce the transition. The effects of A beta and its modified forms containing isomerized Asp7, phosphorylated Ser8, or both, were studied in SH-SY5Y human neuroblastoma cells. Asp7 isomerization of was shown to increase cytotoxicity of both the intact and phosphorylated A beta. An increase in cytotoxicity was not associated with an increased internalization of the isomerized Asp7-containing A beta or an influence on the function of mitochondria or reduced glutathione and reactive oxygen species levels. The nitric oxide (NO) level was identified as a determinant of the cytotoxic effect of isomerized Asp7-containing peptides, a decrease in NO level correlating with an increase in cytotoxicity.
