Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the most common cause of dementia. At the pre-symptomatic phase of the disease, the processing of the amyloid precursor protein (APP) produces toxic peptides, called amyloid-β 1-42 (Aβ 1-42). The downstream effects of Aβ 1-42 production are not completely uncovered. Here, we report the involvement of transglutaminase 1 (TG1) in in vitro AD models of neuronal toxicity. TG1 was increased at late stages of the disease in the hippocampus of a mouse model of AD and in primary cortical neurons undergoing stress. Silencing of TGM1 gene was sufficient to prevent Aβ-mediated neuronal death. Conversely, its overexpression enhanced cell death. TGM1 upregulation was mediated at the transcriptional level by an activator protein 1 (AP1) binding site that when mutated halted TGM1 promoter activation. These results indicate that TG1 acts downstream of Aβ-toxicity, and that its stress-dependent increase makes it suitable for pharmacological intervention.

在神经元应激和Aβ1-42介导的毒性的体外模型中,转谷氨酰胺酶1转录的增加介导了神经元死亡。

阿尔茨海默氏病(AD)是痴呆症的最常见原因。在疾病的症状前期,淀粉样蛋白前体蛋白(APP)的加工会产生有毒肽,称为淀粉样蛋白β1-42(Aβ1-42)。尚未完全发现Aβ1-42产生的下游影响。在这里,我们报告转谷氨酰胺酶1(TG1)参与神经毒性的体外AD模型。TG1在疾病的晚期在AD小鼠模型的海马中和处于应激状态的原代皮层神经元中增加。TGM1基因的沉默足以预防Aβ介导的神经元死亡。相反,其过表达增加了细胞死亡。TGM1上调在转录水平由激活蛋白1(AP1)结合位点介导,该位点发生突变时会终止TGM1启动子的激活。
