Endosomal dysfunction in iPSC-derived neural cells from Parkinson's disease patients with VPS35 D620N.


ABSTRACT: Mutations in the Vacuolar protein sorting 35 (VPS35) gene have been linked to familial Parkinson's disease (PD), PARK17. VPS35 is a key component of the retromer complex, which plays a central role in endosomal trafficking. However, whether and how VPS35 deficiency or mutation contributes to PD pathogenesis remain unclear. Here, we analyzed human induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC)-derived neurons from PD patients with the VPS35 D620N mutation and addressed relevant disease mechanisms. In the disease group, dopaminergic (DA) neurons underwent extensive apoptotic cell death. The movement of Rab5a- or Rab7a-positive endosomes was slower, and the endosome fission and fusion frequencies were lower in the PD group than in the healthy control group. Interestingly, vesicles positive for cation-independent mannose 6-phosphate receptor transported by retromers were abnormally localized in glial cells derived from patient iPSCs. Furthermore, we found ?-synuclein accumulation in TH positive DA neurons. Our results demonstrate the induction of cell death, endosomal dysfunction and ? -synuclein accumulation in neural cells of the PD group. PARK17 patient-derived iPSCs provide an excellent experimental tool for understanding the pathophysiology underlying PD.
