ERRγ Ligand Regulates Adult Neurogenesis and Depression-like Behavior in a LRRK2-G2019S-associated Young Female Mouse Model of Parkinson's Disease.

ABSTRACT: Adult neurogenesis, a process controlling the proliferation to maturation of newly generated neurons in the post-developmental brain, is associated with various brain functions and pathogenesis of neuropsychological diseases, such as Parkinson's disease (PD) and depression. Because orphan nuclear receptor estrogen-related receptor γ (ERRγ) plays a role in the differentiation of neuronal cells, we investigated whether an ERRγ ligand enhances adult neurogenesis and regulates depressive behavior in a LRRK2-G2019S-associated mouse model of PD. Young female LRRK2-G2019S mice (7-9 weeks old) showed depression-like behavior without dopaminergic neuronal loss in the nigrostriatal pathway nor motor dysfunction. A significant decrease in adult hippocampal neurogenesis was detected in young female LRRK2-G2019S mice, but not in comparable male mice. A synthetic ERRγ ligand, (E)-4-hydroxy-N'-(4-(phenylethynyl)benzylidene)benzohydrazide (HPB2), ameliorated depression-like behavior in young female LRRK2-G2019S mice and enhanced neurogenesis in the hippocampus, as evidenced by increases in the number of bromodeoxyuridine/neuronal nuclei-positive cells and in the intensity and number of doublecortin-positive cells in the hippocampal dentate gyrus (DG). Moreover, HPB2 significantly increased the number of spines and the number and length of dendrites in the DG of young female LRRK2-G2019S mice. Furthermore, HPB2 upregulated brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF)/tropomyosin receptor kinase B (TrkB) signaling, one of the important factors regulating neurogenesis, as well as phosphorylated cAMP-response element binding protein-positive cells in the DG of young female LRRK2-G2019S mice. Together, these results suggest ERRγ as a novel therapeutic target for PD-associated depression by modulating adult neurogenesis and BDNF/TrkB signaling.

Project description:BackgroundThe clinicopathological phenotype of G2019S LRRK2-associated Parkinson's disease (L2PD) is similar to idiopathic Parkinson's disease (iPD), and G2019S LRRK2 nonmanifesting carriers (L2NMCs) are at increased risk for development of PD. With various therapeutic strategies in the clinical and preclinical pipeline, there is an urgent need to identify biomarkers that can aid early diagnosis and patient enrichment for ongoing and future LRRK2-targeted trials.ObjectiveThe objective of this work was to investigate differential protein and phospho-protein changes related to G2019S mutant LRRK2 in peripheral blood mononuclear cells from G2019S L2PD patients and G2019S L2NMCs, identify specific phospho-protein changes associated with the G2019S mutation and with disease status, and compare findings with patients with iPD.MethodsWe performed an unbiased phospho-proteomic study by isobaric label-based mass spectrometry using peripheral blood mononuclear cell group pools from a LRRK2 cohort from Spain encompassing patients with G2019S L2PD (n = 20), G2019S L2NMCs (n = 20), healthy control subjects (n = 30), patients with iPD (n = 15), patients with R1441G L2PD (n = 5), and R1441G L2NMCs (n = 3) (total N = 93).ResultsComparing G2019S carriers with healthy controls, we identified phospho-protein changes associated with the G2019S mutation. Moreover, we uncovered a specific G2019S phospho-signature that changes with disease status and can discriminate patients with G2019S L2PD, G2019S L2NMCs, and healthy controls. Although patients with iPD showed a differential phospho-proteomic profile, biological enrichment analyses revealed similar changes in deregulated pathways across the three groups.ConclusionsWe found a differential phospho-signature associated with LRRK2 G2019S for which, consistent with disease status, the phospho-profile from PD at-risk G2019S L2NMCs was more similar to healthy controls than patients with G2019S L2PD with the manifested disease. © 2022 The Authors.
