Abstract:
:Missense mutations of presenilin 1 (PS-1) and presenilin 2 (PS-2) genes cause the majority of early-onset familial forms of Alzheimer's disease (AD). We previously characterized the distribution of the PS-1 protein in the mouse brain by immunohistochemistry using an antibody directed against an epitope located in the large hydrophilic loop [Moussaoui, S., Czech, C., Pradier, L., Blanchard, V., Bonici, B., Gohin, M., Imperato, A. and Revah, F., Immunohistochemical analysis of presenilin 1 expression in the mouse brain, FEBS Lett., 383 (1996) 219-222]. Similarly, we now report the distribution pattern of PS-2 protein in the mouse brain. For these experiments we used a polyclonal antibody raised against a synthetic peptide corresponding to the amino-acid sequence 7-24 of the predicted human PS-2 protein. The specificity of the antibody was evidenced by its ability to recognize PS-2 protein in immunoprecipitation studies and by antigen-peptide competition. In the mouse brain, PS-2 protein was present in numerous cerebral structures, but its distribution in these structures did not correlate with their susceptibility to AD pathology. In all examined structures of the gray matter, PS-2 protein was concentrated in neuronal cell bodies but it was not detected in the glial cells of the white matter. The regional distribution pattern of PS-2 protein was almost identical to that of PS-1 protein. Moreover, PS-2 protein co-localized with PS-1 protein in a large number of neuronal cell bodies. In terms of subcellular localization, PS-2 immunostaining was present almost exclusively in neuronal cell bodies while PS-1 immunostaining was also present in dendrites. This could be explained by the different epitopes of the antibodies and the known proteolytic processing of both presenilins in vivo [Tanzi, R.E., Kovacs, D.M., Kim, T.-W., Moir, R.D., Guenette, S.Y. and Wasco, W., The presenilin genes and their role in early-onset familial Alzheimer's disease, Alzheimer's disease Rev., 1 (1996) 91-98]. Within neuronal cell bodies, the immunostaining of PS-2 protein, as well as that of PS-1 protein, had a reticular and granular appearance. This suggests in agreement with previous observations on PS-1 and PS-2 in COS and H4 cells [Kovacs, D.M., Fausett, H.J., Page, K.J., Kim, T.-W., Moir, R.D., Merriam, D.E., Hollister, R.D., Hallmark, O.G., Mancini, R., Felsenstein, K.M., Hyman, B.T., Tanzi, R.E., Wasco, W., Alzheimer-associated presenilins 1 and 2: neuronal expression in brain and localization to intracellular membranes in mammalian cells, Nature Med., 2 (1996) 224-229] that these proteins are situated in intracytoplasmic organelles, possibly the endoplasmic reticulum and the Golgi complex.
