Popis: Transcriptional dysregulation caused by expanded polyglutamines (polyGlns) in huntingtin (htt) may be central to cell-autonomous mechanisms for neuronal cell death in Huntington's disease (HD) pathogenesis. We hypothesized that these mechanisms may involve the dysfunction of the transcriptional regulator CA150, a putative modifier of onset age in HD, because it binds to htt and accumulates in an HD grade-dependent manner in striatal and cortical neurons. Consistently, we report herein that CA150 expression rescues striatal cell death in lentiviral overexpression (rats) and knock-in (mouse cells) conditions for mutant htt neurotoxicity. In both systems, rescue was dependent on the (Gln-Ala)38repeat normally found in CA150. We excluded the possibility that rescue may be caused by the (Gln-Ala)38repeat interacting with polyGlns and, by doing so, blocking mutant htt toxicity. In contrast, we found the (Gln-Ala)38repeat is required for the nuclear restriction of exogenous CA150, suggesting that rescue requires nuclear CA150. Additionally, we found the (Gln-Ala)38repeat was dispensable for CA150 transcriptional repression ability, suggesting further that CA150 localization is critical to rescue. Finally, rescue was associated with increased neuritic aggregation, with no reduction of nuclear inclusions, suggesting the solubilization and nuclear export of mutant htt. Together, our data indicate that mutant htt may induce CA150 dysfunction in striatal neurons and suggest that the restoration of nuclear protein cooperativity may be neuroprotective.
