Particular vulnerability of rat mesencephalic dopaminergic neurons to tetrahydrobiopterin: Relevance to Parkinson's disease.

Abstract:

:We determined whether tetrahydrobiopterin(BH4), an endogenous cofactor for dopamine(DA) synthesis, causes preferential damage to DArgic neurons among primary cultured rat mesencephalic neurons and whether the death mechanism has relevance to Parkinson's disease (PD). DArgic neurons were more vulnerable to BH4 than non-DArgic neurons, exhibiting sensitivity at lower concentrations, evident by morphological and neurotransmitter uptake studies. BH4-exposed DArgic neurons showed (1) increased TUNEL staining and activated caspase-3 immunoreactivity, indicative of apoptotic death; (2) mitochondrial membrane potential loss and increased cytosolic cytochrome c, suggesting mitochondrial dysfunction; (3) increased level of oxidized proteins and protection by antioxidants, indicative of oxidative stress; and (4) increased ubiquitin immunoreactivity, suggesting alteration of protein degradation pattern. Percent of cells positive for these parameters were much higher for DArgic neurons, demonstrating preferential vulnerability. Therefore, the DArgic neuronal damage induced by BH4, the molecule synthesized and readily upregulated in DArgic neurons and activated microglia, suggests physiological relevance to the pathogenesis of PD.
