Seventy-Two-Hour LRRK2 Kinase Activity Inhibition Increases Lysosomal GBA Expression in H4, a Human Neuroglioma Cell Line.

ABSTRACT: Mutations in LRRK2 and GBA1 are key contributors to genetic risk of developing Parkinson's disease (PD). To investigate how LRRK2 kinase activity interacts with GBA and contributes to lysosomal dysfunctions associated with the pathology of PD. The activity of the lysosomal enzyme β-Glucocerebrosidase (GCase) was assessed in a human neuroglioma cell model treated with two selective inhibitors of LRKK2 kinase activity (LRRK2-in-1 and MLi-2) and a GCase irreversible inhibitor, condutirol-beta-epoxide (CBE), under 24 and 72 h experimental conditions. We observed levels of GCase activity comparable to controls in response to 24 and 72 h treatments with LRRK2-in-1 and MLi-2. However, GBA protein levels increased upon 72 h treatment with LRRK2-in-1. Moreover, LC3-II protein levels were increased after both 24 and 72 h treatments with LRRK2-in-1, suggesting an activation of the autophagic pathway. These results highlight a possible regulation of lysosomal function through the LRRK2 kinase domain and suggest an interplay between LRRK2 kinase activity and GBA. Although further investigations are needed, the enhancement of GCase activity might restore the defective protein metabolism seen in PD.

Project description:ImportanceDespite a hypothesis that harboring a leucine-rich repeat kinase 2(LRRK2) G2019S variation and a glucocerebrosidase (GBA) variant would have a combined deleterious association with disease pathogenesis, milder clinical phenotypes have been reported in dual LRRK2 and GBA variations Parkinson disease (PD) than in GBA variation PD alone.ObjectiveTo evaluate the association of LRRK2 G2019S and GBA variants with longitudinal cognitive and motor decline in PD.Design, setting, and participantsThis longitudinal cohort study of continuous measures in LRRK2 PD, GBA PD, LRRK2/GBA PD, and wild-type idiopathic PD used pooled annual visit data ranging from 2004 to 2019 from the Mount Sinai Beth Israel, Parkinson Disease Biomarker Program, Harvard Biomarkers Study, Ashkenazi Jewish-LRRK2-Consortium, Parkinson Progression Marker Initiative, and SPOT-PD studies. Patients who were screened for GBA and LRRK2 variations and completed either a motor or cognitive assessment were included. Data were analyzed from May to July 2020.Main outcomes and measuresThe associations of LRRK2 G2019S and GBA genotypes on the rate of decline in Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) and Movement Disorders Society-Unified Parkinson Disease Rating Scale-Part III scores were examined using linear mixed effects models with PD duration as the time scale.ResultsAmong 1193 individuals with PD (mean [SD] age, 66.6 [9.9] years; 490 [41.2%] women), 128 (10.7%) had GBA PD, 155 (13.0%) had LRRK2 PD, 21 (1.8%) had LRRK2/GBA PD, and 889 (74.5%) had idiopathic PD. Patients with GBA PD had faster decline in MoCA than those with LRRK2/GBA PD (B [SE], -0.31 [0.09] points/y; P < .001), LRRK2 PD (B [SE], -0.33 [0.09] points/y; P < .001), or idiopathic PD (B [SE], -0.23 [0.08] points/y; P = .005). There was a LRRK2 G2019S × GBA interaction in MoCA decline (B [SE], 0.22 [0.11] points/y; P = .04), but not after excluding severe GBA variations (B [SE], 0.12 [0.11] points/y; P = .28). Patients with GBA PD had significantly worse motor progression compared with those with idiopathic PD (B [SE], 0.49 [0.22] points/y; P = .03) or LRRK2 PD (B [SE], 0.77 [0.26] points/y; P = .004).Conclusions and relevanceThese findings suggest that longitudinal cognitive decline in patients with GBA PD was more severe than in those with LRRK2/GBA PD, which more closely resembled LRRK2 PD. This further supports the notion of a dominant association of LRRK2 on GBA in individuals who carry both and raises the possibility of an LRRK2 × GBA interaction. However, the biological basis of a dominant association or interaction is not clear and is apparently contrary to basic investigations. Study of a larger cohort of individuals with severe GBA variation is warranted.
