The amyloid beta peptide (Abeta) is generated by subsequent cleavages by beta- and gamma-secretases. Therefore, these two enzymes are putative therapeutic targets to prevent Abeta production, and hopefully to slow down or even stop the Alzheimer's disease (AD) neurodegenerative process. Several studies have revealed that gamma-secretase hydrolyses other important substrates besides beta-amyloid precursor protein (betaAPP) thus adding another level of complexity to designing fully AD-specific interfering drugs. Here we demonstrate that three distinct presenilin-directed gamma-secretase inhibitors as well as JLK compounds indirectly potentiate caspase 3 activity, the effector caspase of the apoptotic cascade. Thus, inhibitors were shown to drastically stimulate caspase 3 activity in wild-type mice blastocyst-derived and fibroblast cells. Interestingly, some of these inhibitors known to interact with presenilins also trigger caspase activation in presenilin-deficient cells. However, inhibitors do not affect recombinant caspase 3 activity, indicating that the effect on this enzyme was indirect. Furthermore, we established that caspase 3 activation was not due to an effect of gamma-secretase inhibitors on calpains, a family of proteolytic enzymes able to modulate caspase 3 activity. Altogether, our data demonstrate that presenilin-directed gamma-secretase inhibitors affect caspase 3 activity in a presenilin-independent manner. Therefore, as presenilin-dependent gamma-secretase activity is not specific for betaAPP and because its inhibitors clearly affect other vital cell functions, care should be taken in considering 'gamma-secretase' inhibitors as putative therapeutic tools to interfere with AD pathology. 相似文献

Studies demonstrating that accumulation and aggregation of the amyloid beta protein (Abeta) within the brain is likely to cause Alzheimer's disease (AD) have provided the rationale for therapeutic strategies aimed at influencing Abeta production, aggregation and clearance. gamma-secretase catalyzes the final cleavage that releases the Abeta from its precursor; therefore, it is a potential therapeutic target for the treatment of AD. Recent data show that the polytopic membrane proteins presenilin 1 and presenilin 2 are either catalytic components or essential co-factors of a membrane-bound proteolytic complex that possesses gamma-secretase activity. Although recent findings demonstrating that gamma-secretase inhibitors bind directly to presenilins (PSs) further support a catalytic role for PSs in gamma-secretase cleavage, additional studies are still needed to clarify the role of PSs in gamma-secretase cleavage and the use of targeting PSs to reduce Abeta production. 相似文献

Progressive cerebral amyloid beta-protein (A beta) deposition is believed to play a central role in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease (AD). Elevated levels of A beta(42) peptide formation have been linked to early-onset familial AD-causing gene mutations in the amyloid beta-protein precursor (A beta PP) and the presenilins. Sequential cleavage of A beta PP by the beta- and gamma-secretases generates the N- and C-termini of the A beta peptide, making both the beta- and gamma-secretase enzymes potential therapeutic targets for AD. The identity of the A beta PP gamma-secretase and the mechanism by which the C-termini of A beta are formed remain uncertain, although it has been suggested that the presenilins themselves are novel intramembrane-cleaving gamma-secretases of the aspartyl protease class [Wolfe, M. S., Xia, W., Ostaszewski, B. L., Diehl, T. S., Kimberly, W. T., and Selkoe, D. J. (1999) Nature 398, 513-517]. In this study we report the identification of L-685,458 as a structurally novel inhibitor of A beta PP gamma-secretase activity, with a similar potency for inhibition of A beta(42) and A beta(40) peptides. This compound contains an hydroxyethylene dipeptide isostere which suggests that it could function as a transition state analogue mimic of an aspartyl protease. The preferred stereochemistry of the hydroxyethylene dipeptide isostere was found to be the opposite to that required for inhibition of the HIV-1 aspartyl protease, a factor which may contribute to the observed specificity of this compound. Specific and potent inhibitors of A beta PP gamma-secretase activity such as L-685,458 will enable important advances toward the identification and elucidation of the mechanism of action of this enigmatic protease. 相似文献

Alzheimer's disease is characterized by the deposits of the 4-kDa amyloid beta peptide (A beta). The A beta protein precursor (APP) is cleaved by beta-secretase to generate a C-terminal fragment, CTF beta, which in turn is cleaved by gamma-secretase to generate A beta. Alternative cleavage of the APP by alpha-secretase at A beta 16/17 generates the C-terminal fragment, CTFalpha. In addition to A beta, endoproteolytic cleavage of CTF alpha and CTF beta by gamma-secretase should yield a C-terminal fragment of 57-59 residues (CTF gamma). However, CTF gamma has not yet been reported in either brain or cell lysates, presumably due to its instability in vivo. We detected the in vitro generation of A beta as well as an approximately 6-kDa fragment from guinea pig brain membranes. We have provided biochemical and pharmacological evidence that this 6-kDa fragment is the elusive CTF gamma, and we describe an in vitro assay for gamma-secretase activity. The fragment migrates with a synthetic peptide corresponding to the 57-residue CTF gamma fragment. Three compounds previously identified as gamma-secretase inhibitors, pepstatin-A, MG132, and a substrate-based difluoroketone (t-butoxycarbonyl-Val-Ile-(S)-4-amino-3-oxo-2, 2-difluoropentanoyl-Val-Ile-OMe), reduced the yield of CTF gamma, providing additional evidence that the fragment arises from gamma-secretase cleavage. Consistent with reports that presenilins are the elusive gamma-secretases, subcellular fractionation studies showed that presenilin-1, CTF alpha, and CTF beta are enriched in the CTF gamma-generating fractions. The in vitro gamma-secretase assay described here will be useful for the detailed characterization of the enzyme and to screen for gamma-secretase inhibitors. 相似文献

Familial Alzheimer disease-causing mutations in the presenilins increase production of longer pathogenic amyloid beta-peptides (A beta(42/43)) by altering gamma-secretase activity. The mechanism underlying this effect remains unknown, although it has been proposed that heteromeric macromolecular complexes containing presenilins mediate gamma-secretase cleavage of the amyloid beta-precursor protein. Using a random mutagenesis screen of presenilin-1 (PS1) for PS1 endoproteolysis-impairing mutations, we identified five unique mutants, including R278I-PS1 and L435H-PS1, that exclusively generated a high level of A beta43, but did not support physiological PS1 endoproteolysis or A beta40 generation. These mutants did not measurably alter the molecular size or subcellular localization of PS1 complexes. Pharmacological studies indicated that the up-regulation of activity for A beta43 generation by these mutations was not further enhanced by the difluoroketone inhibitor DFK167 and was refractory to inhibition by sulindac sulfide. These results suggest that PS1 mutations can lead to a wide spectrum of changes in the activity and specificity of gamma-secretase and that the effects of PS1 mutations and gamma-secretase inhibitors on the specificity are mediated through a common mechanism. 相似文献

Accumulation of the amyloid-beta (A beta) peptide in the central nervous system (CNS) is considered by many to be the crucial pathological insult that ultimately leads to the development of Alzheimer's disease (AD). Regulating the production and/or aggregation of A beta could therefore be of considerable benefit to patients afflicted with AD. It has long been known that A beta is derived from the proteolytic processing of the amyloid precursor protein (APP) by two enzymatic activities, beta-secretase and gamma-secretase. Recent breakthroughs have led to the identification of the aspartyl protease BACE (beta-site APP-cleaving enzyme) as beta-secretase and the probable identification of the presenilin proteins as gamma-secretases. This review discusses what is know about BACE and the presenilins, focusing on their capacity as secretases, as well as the options for therapeutic advancement the careful characterization of these proteins will provide. These findings are presented in the context of the "amyloid cascade hypothesis" and its physiological relevance in AD pathogenesis. 相似文献

A major component of the amyloid plaque core in Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the 40-42-residue amyloid beta peptide (Abeta). Mutations linked to AD such as those in presenilins 1 (PS1) and 2 (PS2) invariably increase the longer Abeta42 species that forms neurotoxic oligomers. It is believed that PS1/2 constitute the catalytic subunit of the gamma-secretase responsible for the final step in Abeta biogenesis. Recent genetic studies have identified a number of additional genes encoding APH1a, APH1b, PEN2, and Nicastrin proteins, which are part of the gamma-secretase complex with PS1. Further, knockout studies using RNAi showed that these components are essential for gamma-secretase activity. However, the nature of gamma-secretase and how the aforementioned proteins regulate its activity are still incompletely understood. Here we present evidence that unlike PS1, overexpression of these proteins can increase the levels of Abeta, suggesting that these proteins are limiting for gamma-secretase activity. In addition, our studies also suggest that the presenilin partners regulate the relative levels of Abeta40 and Abeta42. 相似文献

Are presenilins intramembrane-cleaving proteases? Implications for the molecular mechanism of Alzheimer's disease. 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
The amyloid-beta protein (Abeta) is strongly implicated in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease. The final step in the production of Abeta from the amyloid precursor protein (APP) is proteolysis by the unidentified gamma-secretases. This cleavage event is unusual in that it apparently occurs within the transmembrane region of the substrate. Studies with substrate-based inhibitors together with molecular modeling and mutagenesis of the gamma-secretase cleavage site of APP suggest that gamma-secretases are aspartyl proteases that catalyze a novel intramembranous proteolysis. This proteolysis requires the presenilins, proteins with eight transmembrane domains that are mutated in most cases of autosomal dominant familial Alzheimer's disease. Two conserved transmembrane aspartates in presenilins are essential for gamma-secretase activity, suggesting that presenilins themselves are gamma-secretases. Moreover, presenilins also mediate the apparently intramembranous cleavage of the Notch receptor, an event critical for Notch signaling and embryonic development. Thus, if presenilins are gamma-secretases, then they are also likely the proteases that cleave Notch within its transmembrane domain. Another protease, S2P, involved in the processing of the sterol regulatory element binding protein, is also a multipass integral membrane protein which cleaves within or very close to the transmembrane region of its substrate. Thus, presenilins and S2P appear to be members of a new type of polytopic protease with an intramembranous active site. 相似文献

Gamma-secretase is a membrane-bound protease that cleaves within the transmembrane region of the amyloid precursor protein to generate the C termini of both major peptides that constitute the amyloid plaques found in Alzheimer disease (AD). Recent biochemical studies provide compelling evidence that presenilins, membrane-spanning proteins associated with early-onset familial AD, are novel aspartyl proteased that function within a macromolecular complex to mediate gamma-secretase activity. These new insights underscore the role of the presenilins in regulated intramembrane proteolysis and could possibly lead to the inhibition of gamma-secretase activity as a therapy for AD. 相似文献

Proteolytic cleavage of the amyloid protein from the amyloid protein precursor (APP) by APP secretases is a key event in Alzheimer's disease (AD) pathogenesis. alpha-Secretases cleave APP within the amyloid sequences, whereas beta- and gamma-secretases cleave on the N- and C-terminal ends respectively. The transmembrane aspartyl protease BACE has been identified as beta-secretase and several proteases (ADAM-10, TACE, PC7) may be alpha-secretases. A number of studies have suggested that presenilins could be gamma-secretases, although this remains to be demonstrated conclusively. Inhibition of beta- and gamma-secretase, or stimulation of alpha-secretase, is a rational strategy for therapeutic intervention in AD. 相似文献

The protease gamma-secretase plays a pivotal role in the synthesis of pathogenic amyloid-beta in Alzheimer's disease (AD). Here, we report a further extension to a series of cyclohexyl sulfone-based gamma-secretase inhibitors which has allowed the preparation of highly potent compounds which also demonstrate robust Abeta(40) lowering in vivo (e.g., compound 32, MED 1mg/kg p.o. in APP-YAC mice). 相似文献

The generation of gamma-secretase inhibitors which block the release of beta-amyloid peptide (Abeta) has long been an attractive therapeutic avenue for treatment or prevention of Alzheimer's disease (AD). Such inhibitors would reduce levels of Abeta available for aggregation into toxic assemblies that lead to the plaque pathology found in affected brain tissue. Cumulative evidence suggests that the S3 cleavage of Notch is also dependent on presenilins (PS) and is carried out by the multimeric PS-containing gamma-secretase complex. It is therefore possible that Notch function could be affected by gamma-secretase inhibitors. To assess the relationship between the cleavage of these substrates in the same system, Western blot cleavage assays have been established using a human cell line stably expressing both the beta-amyloid precursor protein (beta-APP) and the truncated Notch1 receptor fragment NotchDeltaE. Thus, a direct correlation may be made, following inhibitor treatment, of the decrease in the levels of the cleavage products, Abeta peptide and the Notch intracellular domain (NICD), as well as the increase in stabilized levels of both substrates. This analysis has been performed with a range of selected gamma-secretase inhibitors from six distinct structural classes. Changes in all four species usually occur in concert and with remarkably good agreement. A significant cleavage window is not clearly apparent in any case. Thus, these Notch and beta-APP cleavages cannot be dissected apart easily since they show the same pharmacological profile of inhibition. Whether this translates into proportionally reduced Notch signaling in vivo, however, remains to be seen. 相似文献

We have designed new non-peptidic potential inhibitors of gamma-secretase and examined their ability to prevent production of amyloid-beta 40 (Abeta40) and Abeta42 by human cells expressing wild-type and Swedish-mutant beta-amyloid precursor protein (betaAPP). Here we identify three such agents that markedly reduce recovery of both Abeta40 and Abeta42 produced by both cell lines, and increase that of C99 and C83, the carboxy-terminal fragments of betaAPP that are derived from beta-and alpha-secretase, respectively. Furthermore, we show that these inhibitors do not affect endoproteolysis of endogenous or overexpressed presenilins. These inhibitors are totally unable to affect the mDeltaEnotch-1 cleavage that leads to generation of the Notch intracellular domain (NICD). These represent the first non-peptidic inhibitors that are able to prevent gamma-secretase cleavage of betaAPP without affecting processing of mDeltaEnotch-1 or endoproteolysis of presenilins. The distinction between these two proteolytic events, which are both prevented by disruption of presenilin genes, indicates that although they are intimately linked with betaAPP and Notch maturation, presenilins are probably involved in the control of maturation processes upstream of enzymes that cleave gamma-secretase and Notch. 相似文献

Recent studies of gamma-secretase have pointed out that it may be comprised of a multisubunit complex with presenilin 1 and presenilin 2 as central components. Elucidation of the biochemical mechanism of this enzymatic activity will provide important information for developing gamma-secretase inhibitors in Alzheimer's disease therapy. Here we describe the biochemical characterization of gamma-secretase activities using a sensitive, membrane-based assay system. Membranes were isolated from 293 cells expressing C99, the substrate of gamma-secretase. Upon incubation at 37 degrees C, C99 is cleaved by the endogenous gamma-secretase, and Abeta peptides are liberated. Abeta40 and Abeta42 gamma-secretase activities are very similar in terms of their kinetic profiles and pH dependence, supporting the notion that a single enzyme is involved in both Abeta40 and Abeta42 production. Pepstatin A inhibited Abeta40 and Abeta42 gamma-secretase activities with similar potency. Peptide difluoroketone and peptide aldehyde inhibitors inhibited Abeta40 production in a dose-dependent fashion, enhanced Abeta42 production at low concentrations, and inhibited Abeta42 production at high concentrations. Although the selective increase of Abeta42 by low concentrations of peptide difluoroketone and peptide aldehyde inhibitors has been reported in intact cells, the finding that this phenomenon occurs in a membrane-based assay system suggests that these compounds increase Abeta42 by a direct effect on gamma-secretase. The ability of these compounds to increase Abeta42 production may reflect allosteric modulation of the gamma-secretase complex by a mechanism related to that responsible for the increase of Abeta42 production by mutations in presenilins. 相似文献

Gamma-secretase is one of the critical enzymes required for the generation of amyloid-beta peptides from the beta-amyloid precursor protein. Because amyloid-beta peptides are generally accepted to play a key role in Alzheimer disease, gamma-secretase inhibition holds the promise for a disease-modifying therapy for this neurodegenerative condition. Although recent progress has enhanced the understanding of the biology and composition of the gamma-secretase enzyme complex, less information is available on the actual interaction of various inhibitor classes with the enzyme. Here we show that the two principal classes of inhibitor described in the scientific and patent literature, aspartyl protease transition state analogue and small molecule non-transition state inhibitors, display fundamental differences in the way they interact with the enzyme. Taking advantage of a gamma-secretase enzyme overexpressing cellular system and different radiolabeled gamma-secretase inhibitors, we observed that the maximal binding of non-transition state gamma-secretase inhibitors accounts only for half the number of catalytic sites of the recombinant enzyme complex. This characteristic stoichiometry can be best accommodated with a model whereby the non-transition state inhibitors bind to a unique site at the interface of a dimeric enzyme. Subsequent competition studies confirm that this site appears to be targeted by the main classes of small molecule gamma-secretase inhibitor. In contrast, the non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug gamma-secretase modulator sulindac sulfide displayed noncompetitive antagonism for all types of inhibitor. This finding suggests that non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug-type gamma-secretase modulators target an alternative site on the enzyme, thereby changing the conformation of the binding sites for gamma-secretase inhibitors. 相似文献

Accumulation of a 40-42-amino acid peptide, termed amyloid-beta peptide (A beta), is associated with Alzheimer's disease (AD), and identifying medicines that inhibit A beta could help patients with AD. Recent evidence suggests that a class of medicines that lower cholesterol by blocking the enzyme 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-CoA reductase (HMG-CoA reductase), termed statins, can inhibit A beta production. Increasing evidence suggests that the enzymes that generate A beta function best in a high-cholesterol environment, which might explain why reducing cholesterol would inhibit A beta production. Studies using both neurons and peripheral cells show that reducing cellular cholesterol levels, by stripping off the cholesterol with methyl-beta-cyclodextrin or by treating the cells with HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors, decreases A beta production. Studies performed on animal models and on humans concur with these results. In humans, lovastatin, an HMG-CoA reductase inhibitor, has been shown to reduce A beta levels in blood of patients by up to 40%. The putative role of A beta in AD raises the possibility that treating patients with statins might lower A beta, and thereby either delay the occurrence of AD or retard the progression of AD. Two large retrospective studies support this hypothesis. Both studies suggest that patients taking statins had an approx. 70% lower risk of developing AD. Since statins are widely used by doctors, their ability to reduce A beta offers a putative therapeutic strategy for treating AD by using medicines that have already been proved safe to use in humans. 相似文献

Cerebral deposition of amyloid beta-protein (A beta) is believed to play a key role in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease. Because A beta is produced from the processing of amyloid beta-protein precursor (APP) by beta- and gamma-secretases, these enzymes are considered important therapeutic targets for identification of drugs to treat Alzheimer's disease. Unlike beta-secretase, which is a monomeric aspartyl protease, gamma-secretase activity resides as part of a membrane-bound, high molecular weight, macromolecular complex. Pepstatin and L685458 are among several structural classes of gamma-secretase inhibitors identified so far. These compounds possess a hydroxyethylene dipeptide isostere of aspartyl protease transition state analogs, suggesting gamma-secretase may be an aspartyl protease. However, the mechanism of inhibition of gamma-secretase by pepstatin and L685458 has not been elucidated. In this study, we report that pepstatin A methylester and L685458 unexpectedly displayed linear non-competitive inhibition of gamma-secretase. Sulfonamides and benzodiazepines, which do not resemble transition state analogs of aspartyl proteases, also displayed potent, non-competitive inhibition of gamma-secretase. Models to rationalize how transition state analogs inhibit their targets by non-competitive inhibition are discussed. 相似文献

gamma-Secretase activity is the final cleavage event that releases the amyloid beta peptide (Abeta) from the beta-secretase cleaved carboxyl-terminal fragment of the amyloid beta protein precursor (APP). No protease responsible for this highly unusual, purportedly intramembranous, cleavage has been definitively identified. We examined the substrate specificity of gamma-secretase by mutating various residues within or adjacent to the transmembrane domain of the APP and then analyzing Abeta production from cells transfected with these mutant APPs by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and mass spectrometry. Abeta production was also analyzed from a subset of transmembrane domain APP mutants that showed dramatic shifts in gamma-secretase cleavage in the presence or absence of pepstatin, an inhibitor of gamma-secretase activity. These studies demonstrate that gamma-secretase's cleavage specificity is primarily determined by location of the gamma-secretase cleavage site of APP with respect to the membrane, and that gamma-secretase activity is due to the action of multiple proteases exhibiting both a pepstatin- sensitive activity and a pepstatin-insensitive activity. Given that gamma-secretase is a major therapeutic target in Alzheimer's disease these studies provide important information with respect to the mechanism of Abeta production that will direct efforts to isolate the gamma-secretases and potentially to develop effective therapeutic inhibitors of pathologically relevant gamma-secretase activities. 相似文献

Several neurodegenerative disorders including Alzheimer’s disease (AD) have been connected with deregulation of casein kinase 1 (CK1) activity. Inhibition of CK1 therefore presents a potential therapeutic strategy against such pathologies. Recently, novel class of CK1-specific inhibitors with N-(benzo[d]thiazol-2-yl)-2-phenylacetamide structural scaffold has been discovered. 1-(benzo[d]thiazol-2-yl)-3-phenylureas, on the other hand, are known inhibitors amyloid-beta binding alcohol dehydrogenase (ABAD), an enzyme also involved in pathophysiology of AD. Based on their tight structural similarity, we decided to evaluate series of previously published benzothiazolylphenylureas, originally designed as ABAD inhibitors, for their inhibitory activity towards CK1. Several compounds were found to be submicromolar CK1 inhibitors. Moreover, two compounds were found to inhibit both, ABAD and CK1. Such dual-activity could be of advantage for AD treatment, as it would simultaneously target two distinct pathological processes involved in disease’s progression. Based on PAMPA testing both compounds were suggested to permeate the blood-brain barrier, which makes them, together with their unique dual activity, interesting lead compounds for further development. 相似文献
