项目摘要

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): A neuropathological hallmark in Alzheimer disease (AD) and related disorders is the neurofibrillary tangles, whose main component is hyperphosphorylated tau, a microtubule-binding protein. The formation of the tangles in AD has been shown to be preceded by increased phosphorylation of tau and other proteins on certain serine or threonine residues preceding proline (pSer/Thr-Pro). Although phosphorylation can abolish the ability of tau to bind microtubules and to promote their assembly, little is known about what phosphorylation actually does and how it affects the pathogenesis of the tauopathies. Interestingly, pSer/Thr- Pro motifs in proteins exist in distinct cis and trans conformations, whose conversion is normally inhibited by phosphorylation, but is specifically catalyzed by the prolyl isomerase Pin1. Pin1 activity can restore the microtubule function of phosphorylated tau directly or indirectly via promoting its dephosphorylation in vitro. Significantly, soluble Pin1 is depleted in human AD brains. Importantly, our preliminary results show that the subregional levels of Pin1 expression inversely correlate with the predicted vulnerability to neurodegeneration in normal brain, and also with early neurofibrillary degeneration in AD brain. Furthermore, our preliminary results also show that deletion of Pin1 in mice causes progressive age dependent accumulation of phosphorylated tau and tau filaments as well as neuronal degeneration and loss. Thus, Pin1 is the first gene whose deletion causes age-dependent neurodegeneration and tauopathy and Pin1 mediated post-phosphorylation regulatory mechanism may play a critical role in the development of neurodegeneration. In this proposal, we will first determine how Pin1 affects the development of the tauopathy phenotypes using mouse models by crossbreeding Pin1 null or overexpressing mice with other available transgenic mice that have tan-related phenotypes. Second, we will use cultured cell model systems to determine how Pin1 regulates tau function and affects the development of tau-related phenotypes and to examine the role of Pin1 in ABeta-induced neurotoxicity. Finally, we will investigate whether and how Pin1 function is deregulated during the development of human tauopathies. These studies should help elucidate the molecular mechanisms of AD and related disorders, and may also have novel implications for their therapies.
描述(由申请人提供): 阿尔茨海默病(AD)和相关疾病的一个神经病理学特征是神经原纤维缠结,其主要成分是过度磷酸化的tau,一种微管结合蛋白。研究表明,在AD形成缠结之前,tau和其他蛋白质在特定的丝氨酸或苏氨酸残基(pSer/Thr-Pro)上的磷酸化增加。虽然磷酸化可以消除tau结合微管并促进其组装的能力,但人们对磷酸化到底起什么作用以及它如何影响tauopathy的发病机制知之甚少。有趣的是,蛋白质中的pSer/Thr-Pro基序以不同的顺式和反式构象存在,其转化通常被磷酸化抑制,但特异性地被Pro异构酶Pin1催化。Pin1活性可通过促进体外去磷酸化tau蛋白的去磷酸化,直接或间接恢复其微管功能。值得注意的是,在人类阿尔茨海默病患者的大脑中,可溶性Pin1被耗尽。重要的是,我们的初步结果表明,Pin1的次区域表达水平与正常脑中预测的神经变性易感性呈负相关,也与AD脑中早期神经纤维变性呈负相关。此外,我们的初步结果还表明,在小鼠中,Pin1的缺失会导致磷酸化的tau和tau丝的进行性积累,以及神经元的退化和丢失。因此,Pin1基因是第一个缺失导致年龄依赖性神经退行性变和自闭症的基因,Pin1介导的磷酸化后调节机制可能在神经退行性变的发生发展中起关键作用。在这项建议中,我们将首先通过将Pin1缺失或过表达的小鼠与其他现有的具有tan相关表型的转基因小鼠杂交,使用小鼠模型来确定Pin1如何影响直立面病变表型的发展。其次,我们将使用培养的细胞模型系统来确定Pin1如何调节tau的功能和影响tau相关表型的发展,并研究Pin1在ABeta诱导的神经毒性中的作用。最后,我们将研究Pin1功能是否以及如何在人类自发性疾病的发展过程中被解除调控。这些研究应该有助于阐明AD和相关疾病的分子机制,并可能对它们的治疗产生新的影响。
