Mitochondrial Dysfunction and Decrease in Body Weight of a Transgenic Knock-in Mouse Model for TDP-43

Abstract: Background: Mutations in TDP-43 are frequently found in ALS patients. Results: A315T TDP-43 protein is elevated from this transgenic knock-in allele due to disturbed feedback regulation. Conclusion: Elevation of A315T TDP-43 was insufficient to cause ALS in this mutant. Significance: This TDP-43 allele could be valuable in determining genetic or environmental factors that cause full-blown FTLD or ALS.

“…From a therapeutic perspective, this variability can have tremendous implications with regard to the possible range of heterozygosity on disease expression (Bonneau et al, 2014). In other words, even if the trait is recessive, there may be other downstream consequences associated with being a carrier of just one recessive gene (e.g., Stribl et al, 2014). Potentially, this variability may also be associated with tissue-specific gene expression (Lo et al, 2003;Loeuillet et al, 2007;Zhang et al, 2009,).…”

“…Subsequently, J. Lu et al demonstrate that both human TDP-43 and mutant TDP-43 cause morphological dysfunctions; they also demonstrate a decreased activity of complex I of respiratory chain and loss of transmembrane potential of mitochondria [81]. Neurons of heterozygous hTDP-43 A315T mice show significant mitochondrial dysmorphology with reduced ability of cristae formation [82]. It is reasonable to predict that misfolded TDP-43 may perturb mitochondrial function in AD as well as in FTLD/ALS.…”

“…Like SOD1 G93A mice, transgenic mice overexpressing wild-type or mutant TDP-43 also exhibit mitochondrial aggregation in spinal motor neurons (40,41). Similarly, in mice, knock-in of the human TDP-43 A315T mutant promotes formation of ubiquitin-positive inclusion bodies containing TDP-43 in the spinal cord and abnormal mitochondrial structure in motor cortex neurons (44). Taken together, aberrant cytosolic localization of either wild-type or mutant forms of TDP-43 directly impairs mitochondrial function.…”
