GSKIP-Mediated Anchoring Increases Phosphorylation of Tau by PKA but Not by GSK3beta via cAMP/PKA/GSKIP/GSK3/Tau Axis Signaling in Cerebrospinal Fluid and iPS Cells in Alzheimer Disease.

ABSTRACT: Based on the protein kinase A (PKA)/GSK3β interaction protein (GSKIP)/glycogen synthase kinase 3β (GSK3β) axis, we hypothesized that these might play a role in Tau phosphorylation. Here, we report that the phosphorylation of Tau Ser409 in SHSY5Y cells was increased by overexpression of GSKIP WT more than by PKA- and GSK3β-binding defective mutants (V41/L45 and L130, respectively). We conducted in vitro assays of various kinase combinations to show that a combination of GSK3β with PKA but not Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II (CaMK II) might provide a conformational shelter to harbor Tau Ser409. Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) was evaluated to extend the clinical significance of Tau phosphorylation status in Alzheimer's disease (AD), neurological disorders (NAD), and mild cognitive impa
