BACKGROUND: Mutations in CCNF, encoding cyclin F, cause a small proportion of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and frontotemporal dementia (FTD) cases. Mutant cyclin F mislocalises from the nucleus to the cytoplasm, impairs the ubiquitin proteasome system, disrupts endoplasmic reticulum (ER) to Golgi transport, and triggers ER stress and apoptosis. Protein disulphide isomerase (PDI), a redox-active ER chaperone of the thioredoxin superfamily, protects against ALS phenotypes induced by mutant SOD1, TDP-43, and FUS, but its activity against mutant cyclin F has not been examined.
OBJECTIVES: To test whether PDI overexpression prevents the cellular and behavioural phenotypes induced by the ALS/FTD-associated cyclin FS621G mutation.
METHODS: Neuro-2a cells were co-transfected with mCherry-tagged wild-type or mutant cyclin FS621G and V5-tagged PDI or empty vector. Subcellular localisation, XBP-1 and CHOP activation, proteasome reporter (GFPu) accumulation, nuclear morphology, and cleaved caspase-3 immunoreactivity were assessed by confocal microscopy. Transient transgenic zebrafish larvae generated by mRNA co-injection of cyclin F and PDI were assessed by photomotor response at 48 h post-fertilisation.
RESULTS: Mutant cyclin FS621G induced cytoplasmic mislocalisation, ER stress (assessed by XBP-1 and CHOP activation), proteasome dysfunction (indicated by GFPu accumulation), and apoptosis (assessed by nuclear condensation and caspase-3 activation), all of which were significantly attenuated by PDI co-expression. Zebrafish larvae expressing cyclin FS621G swam significantly shorter distances than uninjected or wildtype controls, and co-expression of PDI restored motor function to near-wildtype levels.
CONCLUSION: PDI protects against ALS/FTD-associated mutant cyclin F in both cellular and in vivo zebrafish models, identifying PDI as a redox-based therapeutic target for CCNF-linked ALS/FTD.
