Summary

蛋白质聚集诱发细胞氧化应激。本协议描述了一种通过流式细胞仪监测 amyloidogenic 蛋白的细胞内状态和与之相关的氧化应激的方法。该方法用于研究淀粉样β肽的可溶性和聚集易变性的行为。

Abstract

蛋白质错误折叠和聚集到淀粉样蛋白构象已经与一些神经退行性疾病的发病和进展有关。然而, 对于不溶性蛋白聚合体在体内如何发挥其毒性作用, 仍有很少的信息。简单的原核和真核模型有机体, 如细菌和酵母, 已大大有助于我们目前对细胞内淀粉样形成的机制, 聚集繁殖和毒性的理解。在本议定书中, 酵母的使用被描述为一个模型来解剖蛋白质团聚体的形成和它们对细胞氧化应激的影响之间的关系。该方法将 amyloidogenic 蛋白的胞内可溶性/聚集态检测与流式细胞术 (FC) 表达的细胞氧化损伤的量化相结合。这种方法简单、快速、定量。本研究通过将一大组淀粉样β肽变异体所引起的细胞氧化应激与它们各自的内在聚集倾向进行关联来说明该技术。

Introduction

Proteostasis 是细胞适应和衰老过程的基本决定因素。在细胞中, 蛋白质的稳态是由复杂的蛋白质质量控制网络维持的, 目的是通过伴侣和/或他们的靶向蛋白质错误折叠, 以确保正确的复性蛋白构象1 ,2,3,4,5。大量的研究为人类疾病的发生和发展与 proteostasis 的失败之间的联系提供了支持, 导致蛋白质错误折叠和聚集。例如, 蛋白质矿床的存在被认为是许多神经退行性疾病的病理特征, 如阿尔茨海默氏症、帕金森氏病、亨廷顿疾病678、prionogenic 疾病, 非退行性 amyloidoses9。有人建议, 早期寡聚和 protofibrillar 聚集反应是细胞毒性的主要诱导, 与其他蛋白质在拥挤的细胞环境中建立异常的相互作用10。此外, 蛋白质包裹体 (PI) 可以在细胞间传播, 传播其毒性效应11,12。因此, 可以说, PI 的形成实际上可能构成一种解毒机制, 它将危险的聚集物种的存在限制在细胞中的特定位置, 在那里它们可以被加工或积累而不会产生重大的副作用。13,14

标准的体外生化方法为不同物种的聚集反应及其性质15,16提供了重要的见解。然而, 这些化验所使用的条件明显不同于细胞内发生的情况, 因此, 质疑它们的生理相关性。由于细胞通路的显著保护, 如蛋白质质量控制, 自噬, 或调节细胞氧化还原状态17,18之间的真核生物19,20,21 ,22,23, 萌芽酵母酿酒酵母 (酵母) 已成为一个特权简单的细胞模型研究蛋白质聚集的分子决定因素及其相关的细胞毒性影响在生物相关的环境24,25,26

蛋白质聚集倾向是在主序列中固有编码的特征。因此, 可以根据对多肽27中聚集促进区域的效力的鉴定和评价, 预测淀粉样结构的形成。然而, 尽管生物信息学算法成功地预测蛋白质序列的体外聚集特性, 但它们仍远未预测这些倾向如何转化为体内的细胞毒性影响。以系统的方式解决给定蛋白质的聚合状态与其相关的细胞损伤之间的联系的研究可能有助于规避这一计算限制。这个连接在本研究中被处理, 利用一大组变异的淀粉样β肽 Aβ42不同只在单一的残余, 但显示连续的范围的聚集倾向在体内28。特别是, 本文介绍了一种基于 FC 的方法, 用于识别酵母细胞中聚集易感蛋白引起的氧化损伤的构象物种。该方法提供了许多优点, 如简单性、高通量能力和精确的定量测量。这种方法使人们有可能确认 PI 对氧化应激起着保护作用。

Discussion

广泛的疾病与错误折叠蛋白质的积累联系在一起6,7,8,33的细胞沉积。已作出许多努力, 以解开分子机制, 触发这些疾病的开始使用计算方法, 不考虑蛋白质浓度, 或在体外的方法, 其中蛋白质浓度在反应过程中保持恒定。然而, 在细胞内, 蛋白质在拥挤和非均匀的环境中不断地合成和降解。这解释了…
