项目摘要

Aberrant accumulation of protein aggregates is a common feature of age-related neurodegenerative diseases, including Alzheimer's disease. Cells clear aggregated material via autophagy. Lysosomes, the acidic organelles where proteins and unused cellular components are degraded and recycled, are the terminal compartment of autophagy. Long-lived, post-mitotic cells such as neurons are dependent upon continuous lysosomal turnover of cellular materials delivered by autophagy. With aging, lysosomes become less acidic, and their proteolytic activity decreases. In a cellular model of Alzheimer's disease, re-acidification of lysosomal pH increases autophagic flux and rescues cell function. We discovered a signaling cascade which regulates lysosomal acidification. Soluble adenylyl cyclase (sAC) is a source of the ubiquitous second messenger cAMP which is molecularly, structurally, biochemically, and functionally distinct from the family of plasma membrane-bound, hormone-regulated transmembrane forms of adenylyl cyclase. We showed sAC-generated cAMP promotes lysosomal acidification, and in the absence of sAC activity, autophagic flux is slowed. There are no pharmacological activators of sAC. We previously used high throughput screening to identify the most widely used pharmacological inhibitors specific sAC. We now propose to use high throughput screening and our battery of in vitro and cellular sAC assays to identify and characterize “first-of-their kind” small molecule activators selective for sAC usable in cellular systems. We hypothesize that sAC activators will facilitate lysosomal acidification and increase degradation of accumulated protein aggregates in cellular models of neurodegenerative disorders. These studies have the potential to supply proof- of-principle for a therapeutic strategy to treat neurodegenerative disorders.

蛋白质聚集体的异常积累是与年龄相关的疾病的一个共同特征神经退行性疾病，包括阿尔茨海默病，细胞通过清除聚集的物质。自噬，一种酸性细胞器，其中含有蛋白质和未使用的细胞成分。被降解和回收，是自噬的终末区室，是有丝分裂后的长寿区。神经元等细胞依赖于细胞物质的持续溶酶体周转随着衰老，溶酶体的酸性降低，其蛋白水解活性降低。在阿尔茨海默病的细胞模型中，溶酶体 pH 值的重新酸化增加。我们发现了调节细胞功能的信号级联。可溶性腺苷酸环化酶（sAC）是普遍存在的第二种酶的来源。信使 cAMP 在分子、结构、生物化学和功能上都不同于质膜结合、激素调节的腺苷跨膜形式家族我们发现 sAC 产生的 cAMP 会促进溶酶体酸化，并且在缺乏环化酶的情况下。 sAC 活性降低，自噬通量减慢。我们没有 sAC 的药理学激活剂。以前使用高通量筛选来识别最广泛使用的药理学我们现在建议使用高通量筛选和我们的电池组。体外和细胞 sAC 测定来识别和表征“同类首个”小分子对 sAC 具有选择性的激活剂可用于细胞系统。促进溶酶体酸化并增加累积蛋白质聚集体的降解这些研究有可能提供神经退行性疾病的细胞模型。治疗神经退行性疾病的治疗策略的原则。
