Abstract:
:Secretion and progressive cerebral accumulation of beta-amyloid peptides (Abeta) derived by endoproteolytic ("amyloidogenic") processing of beta-amyloid precursor protein (APP) represent collectively an early and necessary event in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease. We previously demonstrated that secretion of the neurotoxic species Abeta42 increases during staurosporine-induced apoptosis in undifferentiated PC12 cells, in an endocytosis-dependent manner. In the present study, we tested whether phosphorylation of the APP cytoplasmic-tail is contributory to this apoptosis-related increased Abeta-secretory response. We demonstrate that cytoplasmic-tail phosphorylation specifically at amino-acid residue T668 (APP-695 numbering) increases during staurosporine-induced apoptosis, in parallel with activation of the mitogen-activated, proline-directed serine/threonine protein kinase ERK1. We demonstrate additionally that specific ERK inhibition during staurosporine induction, with serum-free conditions, results in down-regulation of APP phosphorylation at T668, together with attenuation of the increased Abeta-secretory response. These results are consistent with APP cytoplasmic-tail phosphorylation at T668 during apoptosis as contributory to increased Abeta42 secretion originating from the endocytotic pathway, likely with cell-line restriction.
