Tau-induced upregulation of C/EBP?-TRPC1-SOCE signaling aggravates tauopathies: A vicious cycle in Alzheimer neurodegeneration.

ABSTRACT: Intracellular accumulating of the hyperphosphorylated tau plays a pivotal role in neurodegeneration of Alzheimer disease (AD), but the mechanisms underlying the gradually aggravated tau hyperphosphorylation remain elusive. Here, we show that increasing intracellular tau could upregulate mRNA and protein levels of TRPC1 (transient receptor potential channel 1) with an activated store-operated calcium entry (SOCE), an increased intraneuronal steady-state [Ca2+ ]i , an enhanced endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress, an imbalanced protein kinases and phosphatase, and an aggravated tauopathy. Furthermore, overexpressing TRPC1 induced ER stress, kinases-phosphatase imbalance, tau hyperphosphorylation and cognitive deficits in cultured neurons and mice, while pharmacological inhibiting or knockout TRPC1 attenuated the hTau-induced deregulations in SOCE, ER homeostasis, kinases-phosphatase balance, and tau phosphorylation level with improved synaptic and cognitive functions. Finally, an increased CCAAT-enhancer-binding protein (C/EBP?) activity was observed in hTau-overexpressing cells and the hippocampus of the AD patients, while downregulating C/EBP? by siRNA abolished the hTau-induced TRPC1 upregulation. These data reveal that increasing intracellular tau can upregulate C/EBP?-TRPC1-SOCE signaling and thus disrupt phosphorylating system, which together aggravates tau pathologies leading to a chronic neurodegeneration.

Project description:Macroautophagy/autophagy deficit induces intracellular MAPT/tau accumulation, the hallmark pathology in Alzheimer disease (AD) and other tauopathies; however, the reverse role of MAPT accumulation in autophagy and neurodegeneration is not clear. Here, we found that overexpression of human wild-type full-length MAPT, which models MAPT pathologies as seen in sporadic AD patients, induced autophagy deficits via repression of autophagosome-lysosome fusion leading to significantly increased LC3 (microtubule-associated protein 1 light chain 3)-II and SQSTM1/p62 (sequestosome 1) protein levels with autophagosome accumulation. At the molecular level, intracellular MAPT aggregation inhibited expression of IST1 (IST1 factor associated with ESCRT-III), a positive modulator for the formation of ESCRT (the Endosomal Sorting Complex Required for Transport) complex that is required for autophagosome-lysosome fusion. Upregulating IST1 in human MAPT transgenic mice attenuated autophagy deficit with reduced MAPT aggregation and ameliorated synaptic plasticity and cognitive functions, while downregulating IST1 per se induced autophagy deficit with impaired synapse and cognitive function in naïve mice. IST1 can facilitate association of CHMP2B (charged multivesicular body protein 2B) and CHMP4B/SNF7-2 to form ESCRT-III complex, while lack of IST1 impeded the complex formation. Finally, we demonstrate that MAPT accumulation suppresses IST1 transcription with the mechanisms involving the ANP32A-regulated mask of histone acetylation. Our findings suggest that the AD-like MAPT accumulation can repress autophagosome-lysosome fusion by deregulating ANP32A-INHAT-IST1-ESCRT-III pathway, which also reveals a vicious cycle of MAPT accumulation and autophagy deficit in the chronic course of AD neurodegeneration.Abbreviations: AAV: adeno-associated virus; Aβ: β-amyloid; aCSF: artificial cerebrospinal fluid; AD: Alzheimer disease; ANP32A: acidic nuclear phosphoprotein 32 family member A; ATG: autophagy related; AVs: autophagic vacuoles; CEBPB: CCAAT enhancer binding protein beta; CHMP: charged multivesicular body protein; DMEM: Dulbecco's modified eagle's medium; EBSS: Earle's balanced salt solution; EGFR: epidermal growth factor receptor; ESCRT: endosomal sorting complex required for transport; fEPSPs: field excitatory postsynaptic potentials; GAPDH: glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase; GSK3B: glycogen synthase kinase 3 beta; HAT: histone acetyl transferase; HDAC: histone deacetylase; INHAT: inhibitor of histone acetyl transferase; IST1: IST1 factor associated with ESCRT-III; LAMP2: lysosomal associated membrane protein 2; LTP: long-term potentiation; MAP1LC3: microtubule associated protein 1 light chain 3; MAPT/tau: microtubule associated protein tau; MVB: multivesicular bodies; MWM: Morris water maze; PBS: phosphate-buffered saline solution; RAB7: member RAS oncogene family; SNAREs: soluble N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive factor attachment protein receptors; SQSTM1/p62: sequestosome 1.
