Interaction Information:
Comment | The authors used stable inducible neuronal precursor cells lines (PC12) that express two different autophagy substrates, a green fluorescent protein (GFP)-tagged mutant huntingtin fragment encoded by exon 1 with 74 glutamine repeats (Q74-GFP) or A53T alpha-synuclein. Clearance of these transgene products is markedly retarded by inhibition of autophagy. Erythro-9-[3-(2-hydroxynonyl)] adenine (EHNA), a dynein inhibitor, slowed turnover of A53T alpha-synuclein and Q74-GFP. EHNA also increased the numbers of PC12 and COS-7 cells with huntingtin aggregates, consistent with impaired clearance of mutant huntingtin. |
