Leukotriene D4 induces amyloid-β generation via CysLT1R-mediated NF-κB pathways in primary neurons
چکیده انگلیسی

Although the pathogenesis of sporadic Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is not clearly understood, neuroinflammation has been known to play a role in the pathogenesis of AD. To investigate a functional link between the neuroinflammation and AD, the effect of leukotriene D4 (LTD4), an inflammatory lipid mediator, was studied on amyloid-β generation in vitro. Application of LTD4 to cell monolayers at concentrations up to 40 nM LTD4 caused increases in the Aβ releases. Concentrations ⩾40 nM LTD4 decreased neuronal viability. Application of 20 nM LTD4 caused a significant increase in Aβ generation, as assessed by ELISA or Western blotting, without significant cytotoxicity. At this concentration, exposure of neurons to LTD4 for 24 h produced maximal effect in the Aβ generation, and significant increases in the expressions of cysteinyl leukotriene 1 receptor (CysLT1R) and activity of β- or γ-secretase with complete abrogation by the selective CysLT1R antagonist pranlukast. Exposure of neurons to LTD4 for 1 h showed activation of NF-κB pathway, by assessing the levels of p65 or phospho-p65 in the nucleus, and either CysLT1R antagonist pranlukast or NF-κB inhibitor PDTC prevented the nuclear translocation of p65 and the consequent phosphorylation. PDTC also inhibited LTD4-induced elevations of β- or γ-secretase activity and Aβ generation in vitro. Overall, our data show for the first time that LTD4 causes Aβ production by enhancement of β- or γ-secretase resulting from activation of CysLT1R-mediated NF-κB signaling pathway. These findings provide a novel pathologic link between neuroinflammation and AD.


► Leukotriene D4 (LTD4) induces Aβ generation dose-dependently in neurons.
► LTD4-induced Aβ generation is mediated by CysLT1R in neurons.
► The CysLT1R-triggered NF-κB signaling enhances β- or γ-secretase activity in neurons.
