Novel mutations affecting the Na, K ATPase alpha model complex neurological diseases and implicate the sodium pump in increased longevity

Abstract: Mutations affecting the Na+, K+ ATPase alpha subunit have been implicated in at least two distinct human diseases, rapid-onset dystonia Parkinsonism (RDP), and familial hemiplegic migraine (FHM). Over 40 mutations have been mapped to the human ATP1A2 and ATP1A3 genes and are known to result in RDP, FHM or a variant of FHM with neurological complications. To develop a genetically tractable model system for investigating the role of the Na+, K+ ATPase in neural pathologies we performed genetic screens in Drosoph… Show more

“…Simple organisms such as Drosophila melanogaster provide an easily-accessible and genetically tractable system for the modelling of genetic diseases and random mutagenesis of the fly equivalent of the human ATP1A3 was used to induce an RDP phenotype in Drosophila [32]. All mutations resulted in a loss of function of the ATPase which could be phenocopied by the selective inhibition of the α3-ATPase protein by ouabain and some degree of stress-inducible motor impairment.…”

“…Further we wanted to know whether disruption of (Na þ /K þ )-ATPase directly affects Na þ ion concentration in MTs, we checked Na þ ion levels in (Na þ /K þ )-ATPase mutants (Palladino et al, 2003;Ashmore et al, 2009). Intensity of Na þ was significantly reduced in mutants compared to wild type (Fig.…”

“…The beta subunit is hypothesized to regulate processes such as the transport to, and insertion into, the membrane [105]. The loss of proper function of specific alpha subunits of Na + /K + ATPase can result in two different human neurological diseases, familial hemiplegic migraine and DYT12 dystonia [106]. While the mechanism underlying these disorders remains undefined, studies in C. elegans and Drosophila have begun to provide clues to Na The C. elegans Na + / K + ATPase α subunit, EAT-6 ( Table 1), was originally identified in a genetic screen for pharyngeal pumping (feeding) defects [107].…”

“…Following mechanical stress, recovery is immediate in wild type controls, but ATPalpha mutants experience a delay, whereby temporarily paralysis is observed. This locomotory defect is progressive, with older animals displaying more paralysis [106]. While some Drosophila ATPalpha mutants show this phenotype following mechanical stress, others display temperaturedependent paralysis and reduced longevity [111].…”
