| T1 |
0-190 |
DRI_Background |
denotes |
Redox proteomics analyses of the influence of co-expression of wild-type or mutated LRRK2 and Tau on C. elegans protein expression and oxidative modification: relevance to Parkinson disease. |
| T2 |
197-344 |
DRI_Background |
denotes |
The human LRRK2 gene has been identified as the most common causative gene of autosomal-dominantly inherited and idiopathic Parkinson disease (PD). |
| T3 |
345-406 |
DRI_Approach |
denotes |
The G2019S substitution is the most common mutation in LRRK2. |
| T4 |
407-488 |
DRI_Background |
denotes |
The R1441C mutation also occurs in cases of familial PD, but is not as prevalent. |
| T5 |
489-625 |
DRI_Outcome |
denotes |
Some cases of LRRK2-based PD exhibit Tau pathology, which suggests that alterations on LRRK2 activity affect the pathophysiology of Tau. |
| T6 |
626-829 |
DRI_Outcome |
denotes |
To investigate how LRRK2 might affect Tau and the pathophysiology of PD, we generated lines of C. elegans expressing human LRRK2 [wild-type (WT) or mutated (G2019S or R1441C)] with and without V337M Tau. |
| T7 |
830-971 |
DRI_Background |
denotes |
Expression and redox proteomics were used to identify the effects of LRRK2 (WT and mutant) on protein expression and oxidative modifications. |
| T8 |
981-1196 |
DRI_Background |
denotes |
Co-expression of WT LRRK2 and Tau led to increased expression of numerous proteins, including several 60S ribosomal proteins, mitochondrial proteins, and the V-type proton ATPase, which is associated with autophagy. |
| T9 |
1197-1355 |
DRI_Background |
denotes |
C. elegans expressing mutant LRRK2 showed similar changes, but also showed increased protein oxidation and lipid peroxidation, the latter indexed as increased |
| T10 |
1356-1389 |
Token_Label.OUTSIDE |
denotes |
protein-bound 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal |
| T11 |
1390-1396 |
DRI_Background |
denotes |
(HNE). |
| T12 |
1409-1620 |
DRI_Challenge |
denotes |
Our study brings new knowledge about the possible alterations induced by LRRK2 (WT and mutated) and Tau interactions, suggesting the involvement of G2019S and R1441C in Tau-dependent neurodegenerative processes. |
| T13 |
1633-1792 |
DRI_Background |
denotes |
These results suggest that changes in LRRK2 expression or activity lead to corresponding changes in mitochondrial function, autophagy, and protein translation. |
| T14 |
1793-1866 |
DRI_Background |
denotes |
These findings are discussed with reference to the pathophysiology of PD. |
