Early onset familial Alzheimer’s disease (FAD) is caused by mutations of Presenilin 1, Presenilin 2, and amyloid precursor protein. Beyond the effects of PS1 mutations on proteolytic functions of the gamma-secretase complex, mutant or deficient PS1 disrupts lysosomal function and calcium homeostasis, both of which are considered strong pathogenic factors in FAD. Loss of PS1 function compromises assembly and proton-pumping activity of the vacuolar-ATPase on lysosomes, leading to defective lysosomal acidification and marked impairment of autophagy. Additional dysregulation of cellular calcium by mutant PS1 in FAD has been ascribed to altered ion channels in the endoplasmic reticulum; however, rich stores of calcium in lysosomes are also abnormally released in PS1-deficient cells secondary to the lysosomal acidification defect. The resultant rise in cytosolic calcium activates calcium-dependent enzymes, contributing substantially to calpain over-activation that is a final common pathway leading to neurofibrillary degeneration in all forms of AD. Here we discuss the close inter-relationships among deficits of lysosomal function, autophagy, and calcium homeostasis as a pathogenic process in PS1-related FAD and their relevance to sporadic AD.
