These epithelial cells are organized into a polarized cytoarchitecture, with an apical and a baso- lateral surface with distinctly different protein- and lipid compositions. The main function of polarized epithelial cells is to carry out vectorial transport from one compartment to another. This is for instance done by the uptake of nutrients from the intestine to the blood or from the primary urine to the blood in the kidney. Receptor-mediated endocytosis (Fig. 1) is one of several important systems the cell has developed to take up important nutrients, hormones, vitamins and co-factors [1]. The term receptor-mediated endocy- tosis was first established by Michael S. Brown and Joseph L. Goldstein in 1986 [2] by their work on the low-density lipoprotein (LDL)-receptor and cholesterol, a work which rendered them the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in 1985. Simplified, receptor-mediated endocytosis starts with a ligand binding to a transmembrane receptor, which is located in a clathrin- coated pit on the cell surface. The ligand-receptor complex is internalized into sorting endosomes, which are acidified by ATP-dependent proton pumps. The acidification causes the ligand to be released from the receptor. Most receptors rapidly exit the sorting endosomes and return to the cell membrane directly, or via the endocytic recycling compartment. The sorting endosomes mature into late endosomes and further to lysosomes where the ligands are degraded. In the case of polarized epithelial cells, ligands can in many cases also be transported from the apical surface, across the cell, to the basolateral surface in a process called transcytosis. Megalin (also known as LRP2, gp330 or gp600) is a type 1 transmem- brane receptor expressed mainly on the apical side of absorptive and secre- tory epithelial cells. It belongs to the LDL-receptor family, a family consist- ing of seven core members in mammals (Fig. 2A). The family is, apart from the archetypal LDL-receptor and megalin, also made up by the very low- density lipoprotein (VLDL)-receptor, apolipoprotein E receptor 2 (ApoER2)/LRP8/LR7, Multiple EGF-domain 7 (MEGF7)/LRP4, LDL- receptor related protein 1 (LRP1)/D2-macroglobulin receptor/CD91 and LRP1B (Fig. 2A). Three receptors are more distantly related, namely the LRP5/LRP7/LR3, LRP6 and LR11/sorting protein related receptor (SorLA) (Fig. 2B). Even more distantly related receptors (LRP3, LRP9/LRP10 and ST7/LRP12) are referred to as members of the LDL-receptor family due to their content of LDL-receptor class A motifs (see below). 9 LDL LDL D D YWTD WT Y YWT Y W Y T W YWTD D TD Extracellular space LDL D D YWTD WT D Y D YWT YWTD T YWT W Y Y WT YW YWTD YW D T YW D T YWTD Cytosol D TD Clathrin- coated pit D D YWTD WT T Y W Y YW Y T WT YWTD D D Sorting endosome D D YWTD YWT YWT YW YWT T YWTD pH 5.9-6.0 D D LDL D D YWTD WT Y WT Y Y W YW T YWTD D TD Late endosome pH 5.0-6.0 LDL Endocytic recycling compartment pH 6.4-6.5 Lysosome Trans-Golgi LDL pH 5.0-5.5 pH 6.4-6.5 YWTD YWTD YWTD YW Y T WTD YWTD D Medial-Golgi RAP pH 6.4-6.5 D D YWTD RAP YWT YWT YW YW T YWTD Boca D T D Boca Figure 1.

  • Cholesterol in the Pathogenesis of Alzheimer's
    REVIEWS Cholesterol in the Pathogenesis of Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s Diseases and Autism: Link to Synaptic Dysfunction A. M. Petrov*, M. R. Kasimov, A. L.

ABSTRACT In our previous review, we described brain cholesterol metabolism in control conditions and in the case of some rare neurological pathologies linked to defects in the genes which are directly involved in the syn- thesis and/or traffic of cholesterol. Here, we have analyzed disruptions in cholesterol homeostasis in widespread neurodegenerative diseases (Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s diseases) and autism spectrum disorders. We particu- larly focused on the synaptic dysfunctions that could arise from changes in both membrane cholesterol availa- bility and oxysterol production. Notably, alterations in the brain cholesterol metabolism and neurotransmission occur in the early stages of these pathologies and the polymorphism of the genes associated with cholesterol homeostasis and synaptic communication affects the risk of onset and severity of these diseases. In addition, pharmacological and genetic manipulations of brain cholesterol homeostasis in animal models frequently have marked effects on the progression of neurodegenerative diseases. Thus, the development of Alzheimer’s, Parkin- son’s and autism spectrum disorders may be partially associated with an imbalance of cholesterol homeostasis that leads to changes in the membrane cholesterol and oxysterol levels that, in turn, modulates key steps in the synaptic transmission.

Glomerular development has been analyzed mainly in mice, whereas analysis of human kidney development has been minimal because of limited access to embryonic kidneys. We previously reported the induction of three-dimensional primordial glomeruli from human induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells. Here, using transcription activator–like effector nuclease-mediated homologous recombination, we generated human iPS cell lines that express green fluorescent protein (GFP) in the NPHS1 locus, which encodes nephrin, and we show that GFP expression facilitated accurate visualization of nephrin-positive podocyte formation in

  • Convergence of Genes Implicated in Alzheimer's Disease on the Cerebral
    Neurochemistry International 50 (2007) 12–38 www.elsevier.com/locate/neuint Review Convergence of genes implicated in Alzheimer’s disease on the cerebral cholesterol shuttle: APP, cholesterol, lipoproteins, and atherosclerosis C.J. Carter 176 Downs Road, Hastings, East Sussex TN34 2DZ, UK Received 5 April 2006; received in revised form 30 June 2006; accepted 11 July 2006 Available online 12 September 2006 Abstract Polymorphic genes associated with Alzheimer’s disease (see www.polygenicpathways.co.uk) delineate a clearly defined pathway related to cerebral and peripheral cholesterol and lipoprotein homoeostasis. They include all of the key components of a glia/neurone cholesterol shuttle including cholesterol binding lipoproteins APOA1, APOA4, APOC1, APOC2, APOC3, APOD, APOE and LPA, cholesterol transporters ABCA1, ABCA2, lipoprotein receptors LDLR, LRP1, LRP8 and VLDLR, and the cholesterol metabolising enzymes CYP46A1 and CH25H, whose oxysterol products activate the liver X receptor NR1H2 and are metabolised to esters by SOAT1. LIPA metabolises cholesterol esters, which are transported by the cholesteryl ester transport protein CETP. The transcription factor SREBF1 controls the expression of most enzymes of cholesterol synthesis. APP is involved in this shuttle as it metabolises cholesterol to 7-betahydroxycholesterol, a substrate of SOAT1 and HSD11B1, binds to APOE and is tethered to LRP1 via APPB1, APBB2 and APBB3 at the cytoplasmic domain and via LRPAP1 at the extracellular domain. APP cleavage products are also able to prevent cholesterol binding to APOE. BACE cleaves both APP and LRP1. Gamma-secretase (PSEN1, PSEN2, NCSTN) cleaves LRP1 and LRP8 as well as APP and their degradation products control transcription factor TFCP2, which regulates thymidylate synthase (TS) and GSK3B expression.

Insect Vitellogenin/Yolk Protein Receptors Abstract The protein constituents of insect yolk are generally, if not always, synthesized outside the oocyte, often in the fat body and sometimes in the foilicular epithelium (reviewed in Telfer, 2002). These yolk protein precursors (YPP's) are internalized by the oocyte through receptor-mediated endocytosis (Roth et al., 1976; Telfer et al., 1982; Raikhel and Dhaclialla, 1992; Sappington and Rajkhel, 1995; Snigirevskaya et al., I 997a,b). A number of proteins have been identified as constituents of insect yolk (reviewed in Telfer, 2002), and some of their receptors have been identified. The at xonomically most wide pread class of major YPP in insects and other oviparous animals is vitellogenin (Vg). Although several insect Vg receptors (VgR) have been characterized biochemically, as of this writing there are only two insects from which VgR sequences have been reported, including the yellowfevcr mosquito (A edes aegypt1) (Sappington et al., 1996; Cho and Raikhel, 2001 ), and the cockroach (Periplaneta americana) (Acc.

Low-density lipoprotein receptor (LDLR) has been an object of research since the 1970s because of its role in various cell functions. Te LDLR family members include LRP5, LRP6, and LRP8. Even though LRP5, 6, and 8 are in the same family, intriguingly, these three proteins have various roles in physiological events, as well as in regulating diferent mechanisms in various kinds of cancers. LRP5, LRP6, and LRP8 have been shown to play important roles in a broad panel of cancers.

Brandes1,2 Oxidized phospholipids (oxPAPC) induce endothelial dysfunction and atherosclerosis. Here we show that oxPAPC induce a gene network regulating serine-glycine metabolism with the mitochondrial methylenetetrahydrofolate dehydrogenase/cyclohydrolase (MTHFD2) as a cau- sal regulator using integrative network modeling and Bayesian network analysis in human aortic endothelial cells. The cluster is activated in human plaque material and by atherogenic lipo- proteins isolated from plasma of patients with coronary artery disease (CAD). Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) within the MTHFD2-controlled cluster associate with CAD. The MTHFD2-controlled cluster redirects metabolism to glycine synthesis to replenish purine nucleotides. Since endothelial cells secrete purines in response to oxPAPC, the MTHFD2- controlled response maintains endothelial ATP. Accordingly, MTHFD2-dependent glycine synthesis is a prerequisite for angiogenesis. Thus, we propose that endothelial cells undergo MTHFD2-mediated reprogramming toward serine-glycine and mitochondrial one-carbon metabolism to compensate for the loss of ATP in response to oxPAPC during atherosclerosis.
