Given the critical role for TDP-43 in diverse neurodegenerative diseases including amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and frontotemporal lobar degeneration (FTLD-TDP), there has been a recent surge in efforts to understand the normal functions of TDP-43 and the molecular basis of dysregulation that occurs in TDP-43 proteinopathies. Here, we highlight recent findings examining TDP-43 molecular functions with particular emphasis on stress-mediated regulation of TDP-43 localization, putative downstream TDP-43 target genes and RNAs, as well as TDP-43 interacting proteins, all of which represent viable points of therapeutic intervention for ALS, FTLD-TDP and related proteinopathies. Finally, we review current mouse models of TDP-43 and discuss their similarities and potential relevance to human TDP-43 proteinopathies including ALS and FTLD-TDP. 相似文献

Frontotemporal lobar degeneration (FTLD) with inclusion body myopathy and
Paget disease of bone is a rare, autosomal dominant disorder caused by
mutations in the VCP (valosin-containing protein) gene. The disease
is characterized neuropathologically by frontal and temporal lobar atrophy,
neuron loss and gliosis, and ubiquitin-positive inclusions (FTLD-U), which are
distinct from those seen in other sporadic and familial FTLD-U entities. The
major component of the ubiquitinated inclusions of FTLD with VCP
mutation is TDP-43 (TAR DNA-binding protein of 43 kDa). TDP-43 proteinopathy
links sporadic amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, sporadic FTLD-U, and most
familial forms of FTLD-U. Understanding the relationship between individual
gene defects and pathologic TDP-43 will facilitate the characterization of the
mechanisms leading to neurodegeneration. Using cell culture models, we have
investigated the role of mutant VCP in intracellular trafficking,
proteasomal function, and cell death and demonstrate that mutations in the
VCP gene 1) alter localization of TDP-43 between the nucleus and
cytosol, 2) decrease proteasome activity, 3) induce endoplasmic reticulum
stress, 4) increase markers of apoptosis, and 5) impair cell viability. These
results suggest that VCP mutation-induced neurodegeneration is
mediated by several mechanisms.Frontotemporal lobar degeneration
(FTLD)2
accounts for 10% of all late onset dementias and is the third most frequent
neurodegenerative disease after Alzheimer disease and dementia with Lewy
bodies (1). FTLD with
ubiquitin-immunoreactive inclusions is genetically, clinically, and
neuropathologically heterogeneous
(2,
3). FTLD-U comprises several
distinct entities, including sporadic forms and familial cases caused by
mutations in the genes encoding VCP (valosin-containing protein), GRN
(progranulin), CHMP2B (charged multivesicular body protein 2B), TDP-43 (TAR
DNA-binding protein of 43 kDa) and an unknown gene linked to chromosome 9
(2,
3). Frontotemporal dementia
with inclusion body myopathy and Paget disease of bone is a rare, autosomal
dominant disorder caused by mutations in the VCP gene located on
chromosome 9p13-p12
(4-10)
(Fig. 1). This multisystem
disease is characterized by progressive muscle weakness and atrophy, increased
osteoclastic bone resorption, and early onset frontotemporal dementia, also
called FTLD (9,
11). Mutations in VCP
are also associated with dilatative cardiomyopathy with ubiquitin-positive
inclusions (12).
Neuropathologic features of FTLD with VCP mutation include frontal
and temporal lobar atrophy, neuron loss and gliosis, and ubiquitin-positive
inclusions (FTLD-U). The majority of aggregates are ubiquitin- and
TDP-43-positive neuronal intranuclear inclusions (NIIs); a smaller proportion
is made up of TDP-43-immunoreactive dystrophic neurites (DNs) and neuronal
cytoplasmic inclusions (NCIs). A small number of inclusions are
VCP-immunoreactive (5,
13). Pathologic TDP-43 in
inclusions links a spectrum of diseases in which TDP-43 pathology is a primary
feature, including FTLD-U, motor neuron disease, including amyotrophic lateral
sclerosis, FTLD with motor neuron disease, and inclusion body myopathy and
Paget disease of bone, as well as an expanding spectrum of other disorders in
which TDP-43 pathology is secondary
(14,
15).Open in a separate windowFIGURE 1.Model of pathogenic mutations and domains in valosin-containing
protein. CDC48 (magenta), located within the N terminus (residues
22-108), binds the following cofactors: p47, gp78, and Npl4-Ufd1
(23-25,
28). There are two AAA-ATPase
domains (AAA; blue) at residues 240-283 and 516-569, which
are joined by two linker regions (L1 and L2;
red).TDP-43 proteinopathy in FTLD with VCP mutation has a biochemical
signature similar to that seen in other sporadic and familial cases of FTLD-U,
including sporadic amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, FTLD-motor neuron disease,
FTLD with progranulin (GRN) mutation, and FTLD linked to chromosome
9p (3,
16). TDP-43 proteinopathy in
these disorders is characterized by hyperphosphorylation of TDP-43,
ubiquitination, and cleavage to form C-terminal fragments detected only in
insoluble brain extracts from affected brain regions
(16). Identification of TDP-43
as the major component of the ubiquitin-immunoreactive inclusions of FTLD with
VCP mutation supports the hypothesis that VCP gene mutations
cause an alteration of VCP function, leading to TDP-43 proteinopathy.VCP/p97 (valosin-containing protein) is a member of the AAA (ATPase
associated with diverse cellular activities) superfamily. The N-terminal
domain of VCP has been shown to be involved in cofactor binding (CDC48 (cell
division cycle protein 48)) and two AAA-ATPase domains that form a hexameric
complex (Fig. 1)
(17). Recently, it has been
shown that the N-terminal domain of VCP binds phosphoinositides
(18,
19). AKT (activated
serine-threonine protein kinase) phosphorylates VCP and is required for
constitutive VCP function (20,
21). AKT is activated through
phospholipid binding and phosphorylation via the phosphoinositide 3-kinase
signaling pathway, which is involved in cell survival
(22). The lipid binding domain
may recruit VCP to the cell membrane where it is phosphorylated by AKT
(19).The diversity of VCP functions is modulated, in part, by a variety of
intracellular cofactors, including p47, gp78, and Npl4-Ufd1
(23). Cofactor p47 has been
shown to play a role in the maintenance and biogenesis of both the endoplasmic
reticulum (ER) and Golgi apparatus
(24). The structure of p47
contains a ubiquitin regulatory X domain that binds the N-terminus of VCP, and
together they act as a chaperone to deliver membrane fusion machinery to the
site of adjacent membranes
(25). The function of the
p47-VCP complex is dependent upon cell division cycle 2 (CDC2)
serine-threonine kinase phosphorylation of p47
(26,
27). Also, VCP has been found
to interact with the cytosolic tail of gp78, an ER membrane-spanning E3
ubiquitin ligase that exclusively binds VCP and enhances ER-associated
degradation (ERAD) (28). The
Npl4-Ufd1-VCP complex is involved in nuclear envelope assembly and targeting
of proteins through the ubiquitin-proteasome system
(29,
30). The cell survival
response of this complex has been found to be important in DNA damage repair
though activation by phosphorylation and its recruitment to double-stranded
breaks (20,
31). The Npl4-Ufd1-VCP
cytosolic complex is also recruited to the ER membrane, interacting with
Derlin 1, VCP-interacting membrane proteins (VIMP), and other complexes. At
the ER membrane, these misfolded proteins are targeted to the proteasome via
ERAD
(32-34).
VCP also targets IKKβ for ubiquitination to the ubiquitin-proteasome
system, implicating VCP in the cell survival pathway and neuroprotection
(21,
35-37).To investigate the mechanism of neurodegeneration caused by VCP
mutations, we first tested the hypothesis that VCP mutations decrease
cell viability in vitro using a neuroblastoma SHSY-5Y cell line and
then investigated cellular pathways that are known to lead to
neurodegeneration, including decrease in proteasome activity, caspase-mediated
degeneration, and a change in cellular localization of TDP-43. 相似文献

Metaiodobenzylguanidine (MIBG) is a tracer that selectively targets neuroendocrine cells. On this basis, radiolabeled iodinated-MIBG (I-131-MIBG) has been introduced as a molecular nuclear therapy in the management of neuroendocrine tumors, including neuroblastoma, pheochromocytoma, paraganglioma, neuroendocrine carcinomas, and other rare neuroendocrine tumors. Extensive work has been addressed to develop I-131-MIBG therapy: doses, therapeutic schemes, and efficiency. In this paper, we present an overview on I-131-MIBG therapy, with main focus on different aspects how to perform this treatment. 相似文献

Aberrant regulation of miRNA genes contributes to pathogenesis of a wide range of human diseases, including cancer. The TAR DNA binding protein 43 (TDP-43), a RNA/DNA binding protein associated with neurodegeneration, is involved in miRNA biogenesis. Here, we systematically examined miRNAs regulated by TDP-43 using RNA-Seq coupled with an siRNA-mediated knockdown approach. TDP-43 knockdown affected the expression of a number of miRNAs. In addition, TDP-43 down-regulation led to alterations in the patterns of different isoforms of miRNAs (isomiRs) and miRNA arm selection, suggesting a previously unknown role of TDP-43 in miRNA processing. A number of TDP-43 associated miRNAs, and their candidate target genes, are associated with human cancers. Our data reveal highly complex roles of TDP-43 in regulating different miRNAs and their target genes. Our results suggest that TDP-43 may promote migration of lung cancer cells by regulating miR-423-3p. In contrast, TDP-43 increases miR-500a-3p expression and binds to the mature miR-500a-3p sequence. Reduced expression of miR-500a-3p is associated with poor survival of lung cancer patients, suggesting that TDP-43 may have a suppressive role in cancer by regulating miR-500a-3p. Cancer-associated genes LIF and PAPPA are possible targets of miR-500a-3p. Our work suggests that TDP-43-regulated miRNAs may play multifaceted roles in the pathogenesis of cancer. 相似文献

TAR DNA-binding protein-43 (TDP-43) is a highly conserved, ubiquitously expressed nuclear protein that was recently identified as the disease protein in frontotemporal lobar degeneration with ubiquitin-positive inclusions (FTLD-U) and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). Pathogenic TDP-43 gene (TARDBP) mutations have been identified in familial ALS kindreds, and here we report a TARDBP variant (A90V) in a FTLD/ALS patient with a family history of dementia. Significantly, A90V is located between the bipartite nuclear localization signal sequence of TDP-43 and the in vitro expression of TDP-43-A90V led to its sequestration with endogenous TDP-43 as insoluble cytoplasmic aggregates. Thus, A90V may be a genetic risk factor for FTLD/ALS because it predisposes nuclear TDP-43 to redistribute to the cytoplasm and form pathological aggregates. 相似文献

In amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and frontotemporal lobar degeneration, TAR DNA binding protein 43 (TDP-43) accumulates in the cytoplasm of affected neurons and glia, where it associates with stress granules (SGs) and forms large inclusions. SGs form in response to cellular stress, including endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress, which is induced in both familial and sporadic forms of ALS. Here we demonstrate that pharmacological induction of ER stress causes TDP-43 to accumulate in the cytoplasm, where TDP-43 also associates with SGs. Furthermore, treatment with salubrinal, an inhibitor of dephosphorylation of eukaryotic initiation factor 2-α, a key modulator of ER stress, potentiates ER stress-mediated SG formation. Inclusions of C-terminal fragment TDP-43, reminiscent of disease-pathology, form in close association with ER and Golgi compartments, further indicating the involvement of ER dysfunction in TDP-43-associated disease. Consistent with this notion, over-expression of ALS-linked mutant TDP-43, and to a lesser extent wildtype TDP-43, triggers several ER stress pathways in neuroblastoma cells. Similarly, we found an interaction between the ER chaperone protein disulphide isomerase and TDP-43 in transfected cell lysates and in the spinal cords of mutant A315T TDP-43 transgenic mice. This study provides evidence for ER stress as a pathogenic pathway in TDP-43-mediated disease. 相似文献

TDP-43: a novel neurodegenerative proteinopathy 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Over the past decade, it has become clear that there is a significant overlap in the clinical spectrum of frontotemporal lobar degeneration and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). The identification of TDP-43 as the major disease protein in the pathology of both frontotemporal lobar degeneration with ubiquitin inclusions and ALS provides the first molecular link for these diseases. Pathological TDP-43 is abnormally phosphorylated, ubiquitinated, and cleaved to generate carboxy-terminal fragments in affected brain regions. The normal nuclear expression of TDP-43 is also reduced leading to the hypothesis that sequestration of TDP-43 in pathological inclusions contributes to disease pathogenesis. Thus, TDP-43 is the newest member of the growing list of neurodegenerative proteinopathies, but unique in that it lacks features of brain amyloidosis. 相似文献

TAR DNA-binding protein 43 (TDP-43) is a nuclear protein involved in RNA splicing and a major protein component in ubiquitin-positive, tau-negative inclusions of frontotemporal lobar degeneration and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. Under disease conditions, TDP-43 redistributes to the cytoplasm where it can be phosphorylated, ubiquitinated, and proteolytically cleaved. Enzymes responsible for TDP-43 proteolytic processing in brain remain largely unreported. Using a MS approach, we identified two truncated TDP-43 peptides, terminating C-terminal to asparagines 291 (N291) and 306 (N306). The only documented mammalian enzyme capable of cleaving C-terminal to asparagine is asparaginyl endopeptidase (AEP). TDP-43-immunoreactive fragments (~35 and 32 kDa) predicted to be generated by AEP cleavage at N291 and N306 were observed by Western blot analyses of postmortem frontotemporal lobar degeneration brain tissue and cultured human cells over-expressing TDP-43. Studies in vitro determined that AEP can directly cleave TDP-43 at seven sites, including N291 and N306. Western blots of brain homogenates isolated from AEP-null mice and wild-type littermate controls revealed that TDP-43 proteolytic fragments were substantially reduced in the absence of AEP in vivo. Taken together, we conclude that TDP-43 is cleaved by AEP in brain. Moreover, these data highlight the utility of combining proteomic strategies in vitro and in vivo to provide insight into TDP-43 biology that will fuel the design of more detailed models of disease pathogenesis. 相似文献

TAR DNA-binding protein 43 (TDP-43) is a major component in aggregates of ubiquitinated proteins in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and frontotemporal lobar degeneration (FTLD). Here we report that lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced inflammation can promote TDP-43 mislocalization and aggregation. In culture, microglia and astrocytes exhibited TDP-43 mislocalization after exposure to LPS. Likewise, treatment of the motoneuron-like NSC-34 cells with TNF-alpha (TNF-α) increased the cytoplasmic levels of TDP-43. In addition, the chronic intraperitoneal injection of LPS at a dose of 1mg/kg in TDP-43A315T transgenic mice exacerbated the pathological TDP-43 accumulation in the cytoplasm of spinal motor neurons and it enhanced the levels of TDP-43 aggregation. These results suggest that inflammation may contribute to development or exacerbation of TDP-43 proteinopathies in neurodegenerative disorders. 相似文献

TDP-43 is a DNA/RNA-binding protein with multicellular functions. As a pathosignature protein of a range of neurodegenerative diseases, TDP-43 is also the major component of the polyubiquitinated inclusions in the pathological cellular samples of these diseases. In normal cells, TDP-43 is processed and degraded by both autophagy and the ubiquitin-proteasome systems. We have found, by microarray hybridization and RT-PCR analyses, that the level of the mRNA encoding the major autophagy component Atg7 is decreased upon depletion of TDP-43 by RNAi knockdown. This decrease of the Atg7 mRNA level could be rescued by overexpression of an siRNA-resistant form of TDP-43, and it appears to be the result of destabilization of the Atg7 mRNA, to which TDP-43 could bind through its RNA recognition motif 1 domain. Furthermore, depletion of TDP-43 with the consequent loss of the Atg7 mRNA/ATG7 protein causes impairment of the autophagy and facilitates the accumulation of polyubiquitinated proteins as well as the autophagy/ubiquitin-proteasome system substrate p62 in the cells. These data demonstrate the function of TDP-43 as a maintenance factor of the autophagy system, and they suggest the existence of a feedback regulatory loop between TDP-43 and autophagy. A scenario in which loss of function of TDP-43 contributes to the development of TDP-43 proteinopathies is presented. 相似文献

Abnormal aggregates of transactive response DNA-binding protein-43 (TDP-43) and its hyperphosphorylated and N-terminal truncated C-terminal fragments (CTFs) are deposited as major components of ubiquitinated inclusions in most cases of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and frontotemporal lobar degeneration with ubiquitinated inclusions (FTLD-U). The mechanism underlying the contribution of TDP-43 to the pathogenesis of these neurodegenerative diseases remains unknown. In this study, we found that a 2-5-fold increase in TDP-43 expression over the endogenous level induced death of NSC34 motor neuronal cells and primary cortical neurons. TDP-43-induced death is associated with up-regulation of Bim expression and down-regulation of Bcl-xL expression. siRNA-mediated reduction of Bim expression attenuates TDP-43-induced death. Accumulated evidence indicates that caspases are activated in neurons of ALS and FTLD-U patients, and activated caspase-mediated cleavage of TDP-43 generates CTFs of TDP-43. Here, we further found that the ER (endoplasmic reticulum) stress- or staurosporine-mediated activation of caspases leads to cleavage of TDP-43 at Asp(89) and Asp(169), generating CTF35 (TDP-43-(90-414)) and CTF27 (TDP-43-(170-414)) in cultured neuronal cells. In contrast to TDP-43, CTF27 is unable to induce death while it forms aggregates. CTF35 was weaker than full-length TDP-43 in inducing death. A cleavage-resistant mutant of TDP-43 (TDP-43-D89E/D169E) showed stronger death-inducing activity than wild-type TDP-43. These results suggest that disease-related activation of caspases may attenuate TDP-43-induced toxicity by promoting TDP-43 cleavage. 相似文献
