چکیده
|
Homozygous mutations in the glucocerebrosidase (gba) gene result in gaucher disease (gd),the most common lysosomal storage disease. recent genetic studies have revealed that gba mutations confer a strong risk for sporadic parkinson’s disease (pd). to investigate how gba mutations cause pd,we generated gba nonsense mutant (gba-/-) medaka that are completely deficient in glucocerebrosidase (gcase) activity. in contrast to the perinatal death in humans and mice lacking gcase activity,gba-/- medaka survived for months,enabling analysis of the pathological progression. gba-/- medaka displayed the pathological phenotypes resembling human neuronopathic gd including infiltration of gaucher cell-like cells into the brains,progressive neuronal loss,and microgliosis. detailed pathological findings represented lysosomal abnormalities in neurons and alpha-synuclein (α-syn) accumulation in axonal swellings containing autophagosomes. unexpectedly,disruption of α-syn did not improve the life span,formation of axonal swellings,neuronal loss,or neuroinflammation in gba-/- medaka. taken together,the present study revealed gba-/- medaka as a novel neuronopathic gd model,the pahological mechanisms of α-syn accumulation caused by gcase deficiency,and the minimal contribution of α-syn to the pathogenesis of neuronopathic gd. © 2015 uemura et al.
