Lysosomal dysfunction causes neurodegeneration in mucolipidosis II ‘knock-in’ mice

Abstract: Mucolipidosis II is a neurometabolic lysosomal trafficking disorder of infancy caused by loss of mannose 6-phosphate targeting signals on lysosomal proteins, leading to lysosomal dysfunction and accumulation of non-degraded material. However, the identity of storage material and mechanisms of neurodegeneration in mucolipidosis II are unknown. We have generated 'knock-in' mice with a common mucolipidosis II patient mutation that show growth retardation, progressive brain atrophy, skeletal abnormalities, elevate… Show more

“…31 The presence of LAMP-1 and -2 in their limiting membranes further defines them as autolysosomes, which is in agreement with observations in MLII mouse models that show the presence of autolysosomes in exocrine secretory cells and compartments with similar morphology in various cell types. [32][33][34] In summary, the characterization of the endo-lysosomal system in MLII B cells shows that these cells have decreased numbers of type V late endosomes and lysosomes but instead accumulate inclusion bodies/autolyosomes with undigested material.…”

“…Interestingly, apart from the reasonably well-characterized culprits, such as psychosine, increased amounts of ROS and susceptibility to LMP seems to be a feature of an increasing number of LSDs ( 57,(66)(67)(68)(69). As LMP is a well-described initiator of cell death programs, modifying this phenotype presents an attractive area for therapeutic intervention, not only in LSDs but also in other diseases in which this deleterious process is involved, such as cancer and pancreatitis ( 13,58,70 ).…”

“…The lysosome contains a high content of hydrolytic enzymes, and loss of lysosomal integrity is potentially lethal to the cell, as evidenced by the involvement of LMP in a number of cell death cascades and pathologies, including a number of the LSDs ( 13,57,(66)(67)(68)(69)71 ).…”

“…Mouse embryonic fi broblasts (MEFs) of WT and MLII "knockin" mice were prepared as previously described ( 18 ). Human fibroblasts were obtained from skin biopsies with informed consent of two controls and three NPC1 patients carrying the following mutations encoded by the NPC1 gene: Patient 1 (P1) was heterozygous for p.G910S and p.G1034R; patient 2 (P2) and patient 3 (P3) were homozygous for p.S940L and p.I1095del, respectively.…”
