Hsp105α Suppresses the Aggregation of Truncated Androgen Receptor with Expanded CAG Repeats and Cell Toxicity

Abstract: Spinal and bulbar muscular atrophy (SBMA) is a neurodegenerative disorder caused by the expansion of a polyglutamine tract in the androgen receptor (AR). The N-terminal fragment of AR containing the expanded polyglutamine tract aggregates in cytoplasm and/or in nucleus and induces cell death. Some chaperones such as Hsp40 and Hsp70 have been identified as important regulators of polyglutamine aggregation and/or cell death in neuronal cells. Recently, Hsp105␣, expressed at especially high levels in mammalian br… Show more

“…Overexpression of mammalian Hsp110 in Rat-1 and HeLa cells confers increased thermoresistance (22). Recently, overexpression of Hsp110 was found to suppress cell toxicity caused by induction of the polyglutamine tract-containing truncated androgen receptor (tAR) in COS-7 cells (23). These findings are consistent with the general chaperone activity demonstrated in vitro, but to date, no endogenous cellular targets have been identified.…”

“…HSP105 previously was shown to associate with HSP70 and HSP40 and to suppresses the ability of HSP70/HSP40 to promote protein refolding [29,39]. Although these studies indicated that HSP105 reduces the function HSP70, in opposition to this HSP105 also was reported to be a nucleotide exchange factor for HSP70, thus promoting its activity [27,28].…”

“…HSP105 is a nucleotide exchange factor for HSP70 [27,28] and prevents aggregation of mutant androgen receptors [29] and Zn/Cu superoxide dismutase [30]. HSP105 attenuates staurosporineinduced apoptosis [31], but overexpressed HSP105α in mouse embryonal F9 cells enhanced apoptosis in response to oxidative stress [32].…”

“…The human HSP105 family has a high molecular mass and consists of HSP105α and HSP105β cytoplasmic forms (Ishihara et al, 2003;Doak et al, 2004). In previous studies, HSP105 could show to suppress apoptosis in macrophage and neuronal cell.…”
