The ability of beta-amyloid peptide (A beta) to disrupt the plasma membrane through formation of pores and membrane breakage has been previously described. However, the molecular determinants for these effects are largely unknown. In this study, we examined if the association and subsequent membrane perforation induced by All was dependent on GM1 levels. Pretreatment of hippocampal neurons with DPDMP decreased GM1 and A beta clustering at the membrane (A beta fluorescent-punctas/20 mu m, control = 16.2 +/- 1.1 vs. DPDMP = 6.4 +/- 0.4, p < 0.001). Interestingly, membrane perforation with A beta occurred with a slower time course when the GM1 content was diminished (time to establish perforated configuration (TEPC) (min): control = 7.8 +/- 2 vs. low GM1 = 12.1 +/- 0.5, p < 0.01), suggesting that the presence of GM1 in the membrane can modulate the distribution and the membrane perforation by A beta. On the other hand, increasing GM1 facilitated the membrane perforation (TEPC: control = 7.8 +/- 2 vs. GM1 = 6.2 +/- 1 min, p < 0.05). Additionally, using Cholera Toxin Subunit-B (CTB) to block the interaction of A beta with GM1 attenuated membrane perforation significantly. Furthermore, pretreatment with CTB decreased the membrane association of AD (fluorescent-punctas/20 mu m, A beta: control = 14.8 +/- 2.5 vs. CTB = 8 +/- 1.4, p < 0.05), suggesting that GM1 also plays a role in both association of A beta with the membrane and in perforation. In addition, blockade of the AD association with CTB inhibited synaptotoxicity. Taken together, our results strongly suggest that membrane lipid composition can affect the ability of A beta to associate and subsequently perforate the plasma membrane thereby modulating its neurotoxicity in hippocampal neurons.
