Abstract
Abnormal autophagy may contribute to neurodegeneration in Parkinson's disease (PD). However, it is largely unknown how autophagy is dysregulated by oxidative stress (OS), one of major pathogenic causes of PD. We recently discovered the potential autophagy regulator gene family including Tnfaip8/Oxi-alpha, which is a mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) activator down-regulated by OS in dopaminergic neurons (J. Neurochem., 112, 2010, 366). Here, we demonstrate that the OS-induced Tnfaip8l1/Oxi-beta could increase autophagy by a unique mechanism that increases the stability of tuberous sclerosis complex 2 (TSC2), a critical negative regulator of mTOR. Tnfaip8l1/Oxi-beta and Tnfaip8/Oxi-alpha are the novel regulators of mTOR acting in opposition in dopaminergic (DA) neurons. Specifically, 6-hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA) treatment up-regulated Tnfaip8l1/Oxi-beta in DA neurons, thus inducing autophagy, while knockdown of Tnfaip8l1/Oxi-beta prevented significantly activation of autophagic markers by 6-OHDA. FBXW5 was identified as a novel binding protein for Tnfaip8l1/Oxi-beta. FBXW5 is a TSC2 binding receptor within CUL4 E3 ligase complex, and it promotes proteasomal degradation of TSC2. Thus, Tnfaip8l1/Oxi-beta competes with TSC2 to bind FBXW5, increasing TSC2 stability by preventing its ubiquitination. Our data show that the OS-induced Tnfaip8l1/Oxi-beta stabilizes TSC2 protein, decreases mTOR phosphorylation, and enhances autophagy. Therefore, altered regulation of Tnfaip8l1/Oxi-beta may contribute significantly to dysregulated autophagy observed in dopaminergic neurons under pathogenic OS condition.
