A major cellular event in Abeta-induced death of non-neuronal cells, including cerebral endothelial cells, astrocytes and oligodendrocytes, is mitochondrial dysfunction. The death signaling cascade upstream of mitochondria entails Abeta activation of neutral sphingomyelinase, resulting in the release of ceramide from membrane sphingomyelin. Ceramide then activates protein phosphatase 2A (PP2A), a member in the ceramide-activated protein phosphatase (CAPP) family. PP2A dephosphorylation of Akt and FKHRL1 plays a pivotal role in Abeta-induced Bad translocation to mitochondria and transactivation of Bim. Bad and Bim are pro-apoptotic proteins that cause mitochondrial dysfunction characterized by excessive ROS formation, mitochnondrial DNA (mtDNA) damage, and release of mitochondrial apoptotic proteins including cytochrome c, apoptosis inducing factor (AIF), endonuclease G and Smac. The cellular events activated by Abeta to induce death of non-neuronal cells are complex. Understanding these death signaling processes will aid in the development of more effective strategies to slow down age-dependent cerebrovascular degeneration caused by progressive cerebrovascular Abeta deposition. ------>tmu_sno=None ------>sno=22674 ------>authors2=Sheu, J.R. ------>authors3=Lin, C.H. ------>authors4=Shen, M.Y. ------>authors5=Hsu, C.Y. ------>authors6= ------>authors6_c= ------>authors=Hsu, M.J. ------>delete_flag=0 ------>SCI_JNo=None ------>authors2_c= ------>publish_area=0 ------>updateTitle=Mitochondrial mechanisms in amyloid beta peptide-induced cerebrovascular degeneration. ------>language=2 ------>check_flag=None ------>submit_date=None ------>country=None ------>no= ------>patent_SDate=None ------>update_bywho=None ------>publish_year=2009 ------>submit_flag=None ------>publish_month=1 |
