Lipid Raft Alterations in Aged-Associated Neuropathologies

Abstract: Lipid rafts are membrane microdomains particularly enriched in cholesterol, sphingolipids and saturated fatty acids. These microstructures play a key role in a plethora of mechanisms involved in cell signaling, synapsis, cell-cell communication and cell survival. In the last years, increasing evidence indicate that lipid rafts may be altered in age-related neuropathologies, such as Alzheimer's disease and Parkinson disease even at asymptomatic stages. In particular, important changes in raft lipid composition … Show more

“…The reelin down-regulation observed in human occurs without change in Cask or TGF-β1 mRNA levels, but it is accompanied by increased levels of DNMT1 and ApoER2 mRNAs and decreased levels of HIC1 (Hypermethylated In Cancer 1) mRNA. Based in other reports [8,9], our observations suggest that decreased HIC1 expression activates that of ApoER2, which in turn would repress reelin expression. Therefore, the cancer associated reelin downregulation might result from DNMT1-mediated hypermethylation of its gene promoter and from HIC1-dependent increase in ApoER2 abundance [2 and unpublished observations].…”

“…In our investigation, we have not measured the levels of cholesterol in the cells, but being under ideal and similar conditions, it is expected that there could be a significant increase in the levels of cholesterol in SH-SY5Y cells following 24 h in culture. Role of alteration in lipid raft dynamics due to cholesterol imbalance could be a mechanism involved in the neurotoxicity leading to PD and dementia with Lewy bodies [see for review; 24, 25]. It is evidenced from literature that in age-related disorders such as PD and Alzheimer’s disease, changes in lipid raft composition is observed from asymptomatic stage, which becomes important with physicochemical alteration toward progression of these diseases [25].…”
