项目摘要
DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant):
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the most prevalent neurodegenerative disease of aging, with one in eight older Americans diagnosed with AD. It is also the most frequently diagnosed type of dementia within the Veterans Affairs (VA) Medical System, and one of the major causes of morbidity and mortality among veterans. The Department of VA estimates that 600,000 veterans suffered from severe AD and other forms of dementia in 2000, and this number is increased significantly today, because of the increasing proportion of older veterans and the increased prevalence of dementia in veterans that suffer from traumatic brain injury (TBI) and/or post- traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Therefore, AD research studies are particularly important to veterans. Currently no treatment is available to slow or stop AD. There is great need for identification of more efficacious therapies for AD, which is among the priorities of VA RR&D research directions. Synaptojanin 1 (synj1), the main phosphoinositol (4,5) biphosphate phosphatase [PI(4,5)P2 degrading enzyme] in the brain and synapses, has been recently linked to AD. More importantly, we have characterized a NOVEL mechanism by which synj1 regulates cellular clearance of A¿. Down-regulation of synj1 promotes A¿ uptake and lysosomal trafficking, and thereby facilitates cellular A¿ clearance. Subsequently, reduction of synj1 attenuates amyloid induced neuropathologic changes and behavior deficits in an AD transgenic mouse model. Our findings suggest that reduction of synj1 has potential benefits for AD. Based on these studies, we performed a preliminary screening of a library of compounds (total ~3,600 small molecules) with the potential to reduce synj1 protein levels using "The Connectivity Map". We selected 89 small molecules (top hits) for further study and found 10 lead compounds with synj1/A¿-lowering effects in wild-type primary neuron cultures. Preliminary studies showed one calcium channel blocker nimodipine but not nifedipine, reduces both synj1 and A¿ levels in a dose-dependent manner with good dose-effect correlation. Further administration of nimodipine for one month, is capable of reducing brain content of synj1/A¿, as well as improving cognitive functions in an AD transgenic mouse model. In this application, we propose to characterize the mechanism of action for lead compounds exhibiting synj1/A¿ lowering effects (aim 1: Mechanistic Studies), and to evaluate the ability of selected lead compounds to reduce A¿-induced neuropathology and cognitive dysfunction in an AD transgenic mouse model (aim 2: Proof of Concept). Knowledge gained from this application will provide the foundation for designing a full-scale project exploring bioavailability, pharmacokinetics and toxicological characteristics of lead compounds for AD therapy. Taken together, the proposed studies have significant clinical relevance and scientific importance. Information obtained from our studies wil advance our knowledge in developing more potent AD therapies, directly benefits Veterans populations, and improves the quality of service provided within the VA health care system.
描述(由申请人提供):
阿尔茨海默病(AD)是最普遍的衰老性神经退行性疾病,八分之一的美国老年人被诊断患有AD。它也是退伍军人事务部(VA)医疗系统中最常见的痴呆症类型,也是退伍军人发病和死亡的主要原因之一。VA部门估计,2000年有600,000名退伍军人患有严重AD和其他形式的痴呆症,并且由于老年退伍军人的比例增加以及患有创伤性脑损伤(TBI)和/或创伤后应激障碍(PTSD)的退伍军人中痴呆症的患病率增加,这一数字今天显著增加。因此,AD研究对退伍军人尤为重要。目前没有治疗方法可以减缓或停止AD。非常需要确定更有效的AD疗法,这是VA RR&D研究方向的优先事项之一。 Synaptojanin 1(synj 1)是脑和突触中主要的磷酸肌醇(4,5)二磷酸酶[PI(4,5)P2降解酶],最近被认为与AD有关。更重要的是,我们已经描述了一种新的机制,synj 1通过这种机制调节A?的细胞清除。synj 1的下调促进A?摄取和溶酶体运输,从而促进细胞A?清除。随后,减少synj 1减弱淀粉样蛋白诱导的AD转基因小鼠模型的神经病理学变化和行为缺陷。我们的研究结果表明,减少synj 1对AD有潜在的好处。基于这些研究,我们使用“连接图”对具有降低synj 1蛋白水平潜力的化合物库(总共约3,600个小分子)进行了初步筛选。我们选择了89种小分子(热门)进行进一步研究,并在野生型原代神经元培养物中发现了10种具有降低synj 1/A <$效应的先导化合物。初步研究表明,一种钙通道阻滞剂尼莫地平(而非硝苯地平)以剂量依赖性方式降低synj 1和A <$水平,具有良好的剂量效应相关性。进一步给予尼莫地平一个月,能够减少synj 1/A?的脑含量,以及改善AD转基因小鼠模型的认知功能。 在本申请中,我们提出表征表现出降低synj 1/A?作用的先导化合物的作用机制(目的1:机制研究),并评价所选先导化合物在AD转基因小鼠模型中降低A?诱导的神经病理学和认知功能障碍的能力(目的2:概念验证)。从该应用中获得的知识将为设计一个全面的项目提供基础,该项目将探索用于AD治疗的先导化合物的生物利用度、药代动力学和毒理学特征。总之,拟定的研究具有显著的临床相关性和科学重要性。从我们的研究中获得的信息将推进我们在开发更有效的AD疗法方面的知识,直接使退伍军人群体受益,并提高VA医疗保健系统内提供的服务质量。
