TDP-43 suppresses tau expression via promoting its mRNA instability

Abstract: In the brains of individuals with Alzheimer's disease (AD) and chronic traumatic encephalopathy, tau pathology is accompanied usually by intracellular aggregation of transactive response DNA-binding protein 43 (TDP-43). However, the role of TDP-43 in tau pathogenesis is not understood. Here, we investigated the role of TDP-43 in tau expression in vitro and in vivo. We found that TDP-43 suppressed tau expression by promoting its mRNA instability through the UG repeats of its 3΄-untranslated region (3΄-UTR). The… Show more

“…These results may indicate an early stage of Tau aggregation associated with TDP-43 expression increasing cytoplasmic phosphorylated TDP-43 accumulation. Which supports the role TDP-43 plays in Tau mRNA metabolism described by Gu and colleagues (Gu et al, 2017). …”

“…Recently, a study described an interaction between TDP-43 and Tau mRNA 3′UTR. When TDP-43 interacts with Tau mRNA expression of Tau is suppressed (Gu et al, 2017). When pathological TDP-43 accumulates in the cytoplasm in this TDP-43 M337V ALS mouse model, Tau expression increases and aggregates (Gu et al, 2017).…”

“…It remains to be determined if susceptibility to, or DNA damage itself, may be involved in AD pathogenesis. Additionally, a dichotomous relationship was recently observed between TDP-43 and tau levels during Alzheimer’s pathogenesis, with TDP-43 being shown to regulate tau protein expression by destabilizing its cognate mRNA [85]. …”
