- Abstract
Sortilin, a Golgi sorting protein and a member of the VPS10P family, is the co-receptor for proneurotrophins, regulates protein trafficking, targets proteins to lysosomes, and regulates low density lipoprotein metabolism. The aim of this study was to investigate the expression and regulation of sortilin in Alzheimer's disease (AD). A significantly increased level of sortilin was found in human AD brain and in the brains of 6-month-old swedish-amyloid precursor protein/PS1dE9 transgenic mice. Aβ42 enhanced the protein and mRNA expression levels of sortilin in a dose- and time-dependent manner in SH-SY5Y cells, but had no effect on sorLA. In addition, proBDNF also significantly increased the protein and mRNA expression of sortilin in these cells. The recombinant extracellular domain of p75NTR (P75ECD-FC), or the antibody against the extracellular domain of p75NTR, blocked the up-regulation of sortilin induced by Amyloid-β protein (Aβ), suggesting that Aβ42 increased the expression level of sortilin and mRNA in SH-SY5Y via the p75NTR receptor. Inhibition of ROCK, but not Jun N-terminal kinase, suppressed constitutive and Aβ42-induced expression of sortilin. In conclusion, this study shows that sortilin expression is increased in the AD brain in human and mice and that Aβ42 oligomer increases sortilin gene and protein expression through p75NTR and RhoA signaling pathways, suggesting a potential physiological interaction of Aβ42 and sortilin in Alzheimer's disease.
