Iron limitation restores autophagy and increases lifespan in the yeast model of Niemann-Pick type C1

ABSTRACT: Niemann Pick Type C1 (NPC1) is an endolysosomal transmembrane protein involved in the export of cholesterol and sphingolipids to other cellular compartments such as the endoplasmic reticulum and plasma membrane. NPC1 loss of function is the major cause of NPC disease, a rare lysosomal storage disorder characterized by an abnormal accumulation of lipids in the late endosomal/lysosomal network, mitochondrial dysfunction, and impaired autophagy. NPC phenotypes are conserved in yeast lacking Ncr1, orthologue of human NPC1, leading to premature ageing. Herein, we performed a phosphoproteomic analysis to investigate the effect of Ncr1 loss on cellular functions mediated by the yeast lysosome-like vacuoles. Our results revealed changes in vacuolar membrane proteins that are associated mostly with vesicle biology (fusion, transport, organization), autophagy and ion homeostasis, including iron, manganese, and calcium. Consistently, the Cytoplasm to vacuole targeting (Cvt) pathway was increased in ncr1∆ cells and autophagy was compromised despite TORC1 inhibition. Moreover, ncr1∆ cells exhibited iron overload mediated by the low‑iron sensing transcription factor Aft1. Iron deprivation restored the autophagic flux of ncr1∆ cells and increased its chronological lifespan and oxidative stress resistance. These results implicate iron overload on autophagy impairment, oxidative stress sensitivity and cell death in the yeast model of NPC1.

Project description:Niemann-Pick Type C (NPC) disease is a rare, genetic, lysosomal disorder with progressive neurodegeneration. Poor understanding of the pathophysiology and lack of blood-based diagnostic markers are major hurdles in the treatment and management of NPC and several additional neurological, lysosomal disorders. To identify disease severity correlates, we undertook whole genome expression profiling of sentinel organs, brain, liver, and spleen of Balb/c Npc1-/- mice (Npc1nih)relative to Npc1+/- at an asymptomatic stage, as well as early- and late-symptomatic stages. Unexpectedly, we found prominent up regulation of innate immunity genes with age-dependent change in their expression, in all three organs. We shortlisted a set of 12 secretory genes whose expression steadily increased with age in both brain and liver, as potential plasma correlates for the neurological disease. Ten were innate immune genes with eight ascribed to lysosomes. Several are known to be elevated in diseased organs of murine models of other lysosomal diseases including GaucherM-bM-^@M-^Ys disease, Sandhoff disease and MPSIIIB. We validated the top candidate lysozyme, in the plasma of Npc1-/- as well as Balb/c Npc1nmf164 mice (bearing a point mutation closer to human disease mutants) and show its reduction in response to an emerging therapeutic. We further established elevation of innate immunity in Npc1-/- mice through multiple functional assays including inhibition of bacterial infection as well as cellular analysis and immunohistochemistry. We used microarrays on the diseased organs, brain, liver and spleen of the Npc1-/- mice to unserstand the molecular changes occur during the progression of NPC diseases. From the data, we have identified 12 potential genes which can be potentially developed as blood-based biomarker. We have also discovered up regulation of innate iimunity genes in all three organs of Npc1-/- mice and functionally validated them in liver and spleen. Brain from 11 female Npc1M-bM-^HM-^R/M-bM-^HM-^R and 16 control female mice (Npc1+/+ and Npc1+/M-bM-^HM-^R) from 6 age groups (20-25, 37-40, 54-55, 59-62, 67-71 and 81-84 days) were surgically harvested. Liver and spleen from 6 Npc1-/- and 6 Npc1+/- female mice from three age group ( 20-25, 54-55 and 67-71 days) were surgically harvested. Organs were kept in RNA later and stored at -20 M-BM-0C until used. RNA was isolated and Affymetrix mouse 430 2.0 array hybridizations were performed by M-bM-^@M-^XUCLA Clinical Microarray CoreM-bM-^@M-^Y, UCLA, Los Angeles, CA, USA. Subsequent raw data were analyzed using DNA-Chip Analyzer (D-Chip) with the .CEL files obtained from AGCC. Data from Npc1-/- mice from all age groups were compared to control mice (Npc1+/- and/or Npc1-/- mice) from all age groups separately for brain, liver and spleen. 'Matrix Table1' corrsponds for brain, 'Matrix Table2' corresponds for liver and 'Matrix Table3' corresponds for spleen. Thresholds for selecting significant genes were set at a relative difference M-BM-31.5-fold, absolute difference M-BM-3100 signal intensity units and p<0.05. Genes that met all three criteria simultaneously were considered as significant change.
