Summary:
The protein APP plays a significant role in the development of fragile X
syndrome (FXS) at young stages, a new study suggests. Researchers identified an
unexpected biological pathway as a promising target to ameliorate deficits
associated with FXS and autism.
...........................
Scientists at VIB and KU Leuven have discovered that the protein APP plays
a significant role in the development of fragile X syndrome (FXS) at young
stages. They identified an unexpected biological pathway as a promising target
to ameliorate deficits associated with FXS and autism. The results have
recently been published inNeuron.
FXS is the most common inherited cause of intellectual disability
worldwide, and the most frequent cause of autism spectrum disorders (ASDs). The
syndrome is a consequence of the absence or incorrect production of the fragile
X mental retardation protein (FMRP). So far, no cure has been discovered for
FXS.
Early neuronal development
The study, led by Dr. Emanuela Pasciuto in the laboratory of Prof Claudia
Bagni (VIB/KU Leuven/University of Rome Tor Vergata), has identified the
molecular mechanism that leads to increased levels and maturation of the
protein APP in the FXS mouse model.
The scientists revealed how the absence of FMRP leads to an excessive
production of the protein APP and its processing enzyme ADAM10. In turn, this
dysregulation affects neuronal development and behavior. Importantly, the
APP-ADAM10 pathway is unbalanced in FXS during the crucial period of
synaptogenesis -- the period in which an infant's brain synapses are formed and
remodeled.
Using a therapeutic agent developed by Prof Monica Di Luca (University of
Milan) to target ADAM10 activity in an FXS mouse model, the team managed to
significantly reduce molecular, cellular and behavioral deficits associated
with FXS and autism.
Claudia Bagni (VIB/KU Leuven): "While a dysregulation of the protein
APP is known to play an important role in the development of Alzheimer's
disease, a neurodegenerative disorder in people of old age, the discovery that
it might also contribute to FXS, a neurodevelopmental disorder occurring at a
young age, is remarkable. Additionally, the discovery that the APP-ADAM10
pathway dysregulation occurs only at the crucial developmental window
coinciding with synaptogenesis strengthens the therapeutic potential of targeting
this pathway at an early, postnatal stage.
These findings open new avenues towards the development of non toxic
agents, as the one used in this study, that can be designed with the potential
to ameliorate FXS and neurodevelopmental diseases such as autism at specific
developmental postnatal stages."
To achieve these breakthrough results, the laboratory of Prof Claudia Bagni
collaborated closely with colleagues at KU Leuven and researchers at the
University of Milan (Italy), the University of Heidelberg (Germany), the
University of Lausanne (Switzerland) and the University of California in Davis
(USA).
