ATP13A2 variability in Parkinson disease.

ABSTRACT: Recessively inherited mutations in ATP13A2 result in Kufor-Rakeb syndrome (KRS), whereas genetic variability and elevated ATP13A2 expression have been implicated in Parkinson disease (PD). Given this background, ATP13A2 was comprehensively assessed to support or refute its contribution to PD. Sequencing of ATP13A2 exons and intron-exon boundaries was performed in 89 probands with familial parkinsonism from Tunisia. The segregation of mutations with parkinsonism was subsequently assessed within pedigrees. The frequency of genetic variants and evidence for association was also examined in 240 patients with nonfamilial PD and 372 healthy controls. ATP13A2 mRNA expression was also quantified in brain tissues from 38 patients with nonfamilial PD and 38 healthy subjects from the United States. Sequencing analysis revealed 37 new variants; seven missense, six silent, and 24 that were noncoding. However, no single ATP13A2 mutation segregated with familial parkinsonism in either a dominant or recessive manner. Four markers showed marginal association with nonfamilial PD, prior to correction for multiple testing. ATP13A2 mRNA expression was marginally decreased in PD brains compared with tissue from control subjects. In conclusion, neither ATP13A2 genetic variability nor quantitative gene expression in brain appears to contribute to familial parkinsonism or nonfamilial PD.

Project description:Several human P5-type transport ATPases are implicated in neurological disorders, but little is known about their physiological function and properties. Here, we investigated the relationship between the five mammalian P5 isoforms ATP13A1-5 in a comparative study. We demonstrated that ATP13A1-4 isoforms undergo autophosphorylation, which is a hallmark P-type ATPase property that is required for substrate transport. A phylogenetic analysis of P5 sequences revealed that ATP13A1 represents clade P5A, which is highly conserved between fungi and animals with one member in each investigated species. The ATP13A2-5 isoforms belong to clade P5B and diversified from one isoform in fungi and primitive animals to a maximum of four in mammals by successive gene duplication events in vertebrate evolution. We revealed that ATP13A1 localizes in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and experimentally demonstrate that ATP13A1 likely contains 12 transmembrane helices. Conversely, ATP13A2-5 isoforms reside in overlapping compartments of the endosomal system and likely contain 10 transmembrane helices, similar to what was demonstrated earlier for ATP13A2. ATP13A1 complemented a deletion of the yeast P5A ATPase SPF1, while none of ATP13A2-5 could complement either the loss of SPF1 or that of the single P5B ATPase YPK9 in yeast. Thus, ATP13A1 carries out a basic ER function similar to its yeast counterpart Spf1p that plays a role in ER related processes like protein folding and processing. ATP13A2-5 isoforms diversified in mammals and are expressed in the endosomal system where they may have evolved novel complementary or partially redundant functions. While most P5-type ATPases are widely expressed, some P5B-type ATPases (ATP13A4 and ATP13A5) display a more limited tissue distribution in the brain and epithelial glandular cells, where they may exert specialized functions. At least some P5B isoforms are of vital importance for the nervous system, since ATP13A2 and ATP13A4 are linked to respectively Parkinson disease and autism spectrum disorders.

Project description:Highlights • Patients with motor complications, not the remainder of the patients, show quantifiable levels of salivary ATP13A2.• Patients with motor complications present high salivary ATP13A2 concentration relative to controls.• Salivary ATP13A2 content in patients with motor complications positively correlates with levodopa equivalent daily dose and MDS-UPDRS.• The submandibulary gland in PD patients contains ATP13A2-expressing rounded inclusions of 10–20 µm in diameter.• This is the first description of ATP13A2-expressing inclusions outside the nervous system in PD patients. Background ATP13A2 holds promise as biomarker for Parkinsońs disease (PD). No study has examined how salivary ATP13A2 is related to motor features in idiopathic PD. Methods Salivary ATP13A2 concentration was evaluated with ELISA, and statistical correlations of ATP13A2 level with PD parameters were examined. The dose intensity of the dopaminergic medication regimen was expressed as levodopa equivalent daily dose (LEDD). ATP13A2 expression on histological sections of submandibular glands was evaluated using immunohistochemistry. Results Salivary ATP13A2 was undetectable in many subjects (28 % of patients, 43.7 % of controls). However, all the patients with motor complications (n = 28) showed quantifiable levels of ATP13A2, that positively correlated with MDS-UPDRS (total, parts III and IV), and LEDD (p < 0.05). Dyskinetic patients showed the highest LEDD values (p < 0.05). The histological study revealed: a) ATP13A2 staining was very intense in duct cells and vascular endothelium, and b) two patterns of ATP13A2-positive deposits are observed: rounded inclusions of 10–20 µm in diameter located in the interlobular tissue of the patients, and amorphous aggregates inside duct lumen in controls and patients. Conclusions The sensitivity of the ELISA assay was a major limitation for quantifying ATP13A2. However, salivary ATP13A2 was detected in all patients with motor complications, where a direct relationship among ATP13A2 concentration, levodopa equivalent daily dose, and MDS-UPDRS was found. Therefore, salivary ATP13A2 might be a reliable index of therapy-induced motor complications. ATP13A2 was expressed by rounded inclusions in the submandibulary gland of patients. This is the first description of ATP13A2-positive inclusions outside the nervous system.
