Project description:Melanoma is the most serious and deadly form of skin cancer and with progression to advanced melanoma, the intrinsically disordered protein α-synuclein is upregulated to high levels; and while toxic to dopaminergic neurons in Parkinson’s disease, it is highly beneficial for primary and metastatic melanoma cells. To gain detailed insights, both at the level of the proteome and the transcriptome, into this exact opposite role of α-synuclein in advanced melanoma, we performed proteomic studies of high-level α-synuclein-expressing primary and metastatic human melanoma cell lines and proteomic and transcriptomic studies of metastatic human melanoma xenografts treated systemically with the diphenyl-pyrazole small-molecule compound anle138b, which binds to and interferes with the oligomeric structure of α-synuclein. The results of these studies reveal that interfering with oligomerized α-synuclein in these tumor xenografts led to a substantial upregulation of expression of major histocompatibility complex proteins in the melanoma cells, the latter of which is pertinent to enhancing anti-melanoma immune responses.

Project description:Abnormal neuronal aggregation of a-synuclein is implicated in the development of Parkinson’s disease. Glial cells also show extensive a-synuclein pathology and are thought to contribute to disease progression. However, the mechanism that produces the glial a-synuclein pathology and the interaction between neurons and glia in the disease-inflicted microenvironment remain unknown. Here, we show that in neuronal cells misfolded a-synuclein proteins are selectively translocated into vesicles, leading to exocytosis of the aggregated forms. More importantly, our data demonstrate that astrocytes take up the neuron-derived a-synuclein aggregates and produce a-synuclein inclusions similar to the ones found in human brains. This uptake is paralleled by changes in the gene expression profile reflecting an inflammatory response. These results suggest that astroglial a-synuclein pathology is produced by cell-to-cell transmission of neuronal a-synuclein aggregates. This transmission step is thus an important mediator of pathogenic glial responses and could qualify as a new therapeutic target. To determine how astrocytes respond to extracellular a-synuclein, gene expression profiles were established and analyzed for nearly 22,000 rat genes using the Illumina RatRef-12 Expression BeadChip. Total RNA was isolated from astrocytes exposed for 6h or 24h to conditioned medium from cultures of a-synuclein or lacZ expressing cells.

Project description:α-Synuclein is an abundant presynaptic protein that when aggregated and dyslocated from the synapse is associated to Parkinson’s disease and dementia. The normal presynaptic function of α-synuclein is unclear as well as the disease triggering mechanism. In order to extend the knowledge of the α-synuclein interactome during normal function and disease, we have used porcine brain synaptosomes as a source of ligands and purified α-synuclein monomers or oligomers as bait in co-immunoprecipitation experiments. The isolated binding synaptosomal proteins were identified with LC-LTQ-orbitrap tandem mass spectrometry and quantified by peak area using the freely-available Windows client application, Skyline Targeted Proteomic Environment. To compare proteins binding to a-synuclein monomer with proteins binding to a-synuclein oligomer, quantifications were log transformed, normalized to buffer-background, and compared by students t-test. Furthermore, to specify the preferential binding an average fold increase was calculated by comparing binding to monomer and oligomer. 10 α-synuclein preferential monomer binding proteins were identified and among those, we successfully validated Abl interactor 1, and myelin proteolipid protein. 76 α-synuclein preferential oligomer binding proteins were found, including glutamate decarboxylase 2, synapsin 1, and glial fibrillary acidic protein, which were positively validated. We identified 92 proteins binding to α-synuclein, for which we were not able to detect any conformational preferences among. This study presents a catalog of proteins interacting with α-synuclein in its non-aggregated and aggregated oligomeric state, which can be used to investigate the normal and pathological roles of α-synuclein.

Project description:Abnormal accumulation of aggregated proteins and sustained microglial activation are important contributors of neurodegenerative process in neurological diseases. Recent studies have shown that aggregation-prone proteins, such as a-synuclein, the protein implicated in Parkinson’s disease (PD), are released from neuronal cells and thus present in the extracellular fluid, pointing to the possible paracrine effects of these proteins on microglial immune responses. However, the mechanism underlying the disease-associated microglial activation and the role of neuronal proteins in this process remain unknown. Here, we show that extracellular a-synuclein released from neuronal cells is an endogenous ligand of toll-like receptor 2 (TLR2) and activates microglia, which in turn induces neurodegeneration. Interaction between neuron-released a-synuclein and TLR2 and subsequent activation of the TLR2 signaling were demonstrated comprehensively by using computational modeling of signaling network and by the experimental validation in TLR2-deficient microglia both in vitro and in vivo. In contrast to the neuron-released a-synuclein, recombinant a-synuclein proteins, including monomer, oligomer, fibril, or nitrated forms, were not able to interact or activate TLR2, suggesting that neuronal cells have a mechanism of enriching specific forms of a-synuclein capable of activating TLR2 during the process of releasing this protein. Taken together, the results suggest that both neuron-released extracellular a-synuclein and TLR2 might be novel therapeutic targets for modifying neuroinflammation in PD and related neurodegenerative diseases. We collected culture media from differentiated SH-SY5Y cells overexpressing either human a-synuclein (alpha-SCM) or beta-galactosidase (LZCM) and treat these media to primary rat microglia at the concentration of a-synuclein of 1.1M. Transcriptome analyses with microglial cells treated with either aSCM or LZCM at two different time points, 6 h and 24 h.

Project description:Oligodendrocytes and their progenitors upregulate MHC pathways in response to inflammation, but the frequency of this phenotypic change is unknown and the features of these immune oligodendroglia are poorly defined. We generated MHC class I and II transgenic reporter mice to define their dynamics in response to inflammatory demyelination, providing a means to monitor MHC activation in diverse cell types in living mice and define their roles in aging, injury and disease.
