Free sphingoid bases in tissues from patients with type C Niemann-Pick disease and other lysosomal storage disorders
The 20-fold increase of free sphingoid bases found in liver from a murine model of Niemann-Pick type C (NPC) combined to the NPC-like phenotype induced by addition of sphinganine to normal fibroblast cultures prompted us to investigate the potential involvement of these compounds in the human disease. The contents of sphingosine and sphinganine were measured in liver, spleen, brain and skin fibroblast cultures by a sensitive HPLC method. In liver and spleen from NPC patients, a 6- to 24-fold elevation of sphingosine and sphinganine already prominent at the fetal stage of the disease was observed, while no clear increase could be evidenced in brain tissue. A significant increase, not modulated by the intralysosomal content of free cholesterol, also occurred in skin fibroblast cultures. To investigate the specificity of these findings, other lysosomal storage disorders were studied. A striking accumulation was found in liver and spleen (24- to 36-fold) from patients with Niemann-Pick disease type A and B (sphingomyelinase-deficient forms), and in cerebral cortex of type A Niemann-Pick disease. A significant storage also occurred in Sandhoff disease, while several other sphingolipidoses showed a moderate elevation. In all cases but Sandhoff disease brain, the sphingosine/sphinganine ratio remained unchanged, suggesting that the accumulated free sphingoid bases derived from sphingolipid catabolism. Formation of complexes between sphingosine and the lipid material accumulated in lysosomes might be a general mechanism in lysosomal lipidoses. In NPC, however, an increase of free sphingoid bases disproportionate to the degree of lysosomal storage and a specific involvement of cultured fibroblasts suggested a more complex or combined mechanism.
