Fibrillas preformadas (PFF)--Un enfoque novedoso para modelar la neurodegeneración
La agregación de proteínas es una de las principales características patológicas de las enfermedades neurodegenerativas, como la enfermedad de Alzheimer (EA), la enfermedad de Parkinson (EP), la esclerosis lateral amiotrófica (ELA) y la enfermedad de Huntington (EH). En condiciones patológicas, la Tau, la beta amiloide, la alfa-sinucleína, la TDP-43, la huntingtina y otras proteínas se integran en una amplia gama de estructuras indeseables, que van desde oligómeros y ensamblajes prefibrilares hasta agregados altamente ordenados. La estructura fibrilar representa una fase de crecimiento rápido de la agregación de proteínas, ya que estas fibrillas son "activas" y reclutan rápidamente monómeros para su elongación. Además, estas fibrillas se rompen aleatoriamente en fragmentos más cortos que podrían actuar como "semillas", que se transmiten a otras células y reclutan independientemente monómeros para formar nuevas fibrillas. Las fibrillas preformadas (PFF) son fibrillas activas formadas in vitro que tienen esta actividad de "siembra" y son capaces de reclutar continuamente proteínas patológicas endógenas solubles para formar agregados y finalmente inducir patologías neurodegenerativas.
El establecimiento de modelos de enfermedad fiables es crucial para descubrir los mecanismos patológicos, evaluar la eficacia de las intervenciones terapéuticas y valorar la seguridad de los candidatos a fármacos. En comparación con los enfoques tradicionales de modelización de enfermedades, la patología inducida por PFF no depende de la edición de genes, ni de daños químicos o físicos, y puede imitar mejor los procesos de estados patológicos que se producen de forma natural. Por lo tanto, los PFF son un enfoque novedoso para modelar las enfermedades neurodegenerativas.
PFFs could be generated from monomers either by incubating at 37°C and shaking, or by heparin induction. Quality control and precise initial preparation are important for successful experiments. One important aspect of successful induction of PFFs is the use of high-quality monomer with high purity, high concentration and correct conformation. Meanwhile, since the application of PFFs is cellular and animal experiments, the control of endotoxin is also an important factor. In addition, prior to the use of PFFs, PFFs should become a length of 50 nm or shorter via ultrasound to ensure the recruiting activity of PFFs as well as to facilitate the endocytosis of PFFs.
The morphology and activity of PFFs could be verified by electron microscope and thioflavin T (ThT) fluorescence assay respectively. Successfully induced PFFs show fibril structure under electron microscope. ThT assay is a classic assay to detect β-sheet structures. PFFs acquire more and more β-sheet structures as they recruit monomers, and when ThT binds to the β-sheet structure, the fluorescence value increases, thus reflecting the activity of PFFs.
