Abstrakt: The recently discovered interaction between presenilin 1 (PS1), a subunit of γ-secretase involved in amyloid-β (Aβ) peptide production, and GLT-1, the major brain glutamate transporter (EAAT2 in the human), may link two pathological aspects of Alzheimer's disease: abnormal Aβ occurrence and neuronal network hyperactivity. In the current study, we employed a FRET-based fluorescence lifetime imaging microscopy (FLIM) to characterize the PS1/GLT-1 interaction in brain tissue from sporadic AD (sAD) patients. sAD brains showed significantly less PS1/GLT-1 interaction than those with frontotemporal lobar degeneration or non-demented controls. Familial AD (fAD) PS1 mutations, inducing a "closed" PS1 conformation similar to that in sAD brain, and gamma-secretase modulators (GSMs), inducing a "relaxed" conformation, respectively reduced and increased the interaction. Furthermore, PS1 influences GLT-1 cell surface expression and homomultimer formation, acting as a chaperone but not affecting GLT-1 stability. The diminished PS1/GLT-1 interaction suggests that these functions may not work properly in AD.
