Haploinsufficiency of progranulin causes cell type specific impairments in PINK1/Parkin mitophagy
Abstract Background GRN mutations that result in progranulin haploinsufficiency cause frontotemporal dementia (FTD). Mitophagy, the selective autophagy of damaged mitochondria, is impaired in several neurodegenerative diseases. A number of genes linked to FTD (e.g. OPTN, SQSTM, VCP and TBK1) are also known to play a role in mitophagy. Xenophagy, the selective autophagy of non‐host pathogens, relies on some of the same proteins as mitophagy (Parkin and TBK1) and is reduced in GRN knockout mice. Progranulin has also been found to play a role in mitophagy in mouse kidney cells. We therefore hypothesised that loss of progranulin could lead to defective mitophagy in neurons, astrocytes and microglia. Methods We investigated PINK1/Parkin mitophagy in astrocytic‐like H4 cells and neuron‐like Parkin overexpressing SHSY5Y cells (PoE‐5Ys) +/‐ siRNA against GRN. We also examined induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) from four controls, three patients with FTD‐associated GRN mutations (R493X and C31fs) and a CRISPR series from the human iPSC Neurodegenerative Disease Initiative1,2,3(iNDI) with an isogenic control, heterozygous and homozygous R493X mutation lines. The iPSCs were differentiated to cortical neurons, astrocytes and microglia. PINK1/Parkin mitophagy was induced using Antimycin A (respiratory complex III inhibitor) and oligomycin (ATP synthase inhibitor). PINK1 accumulation, levels of S65 phosphorylated ubiquitin (pUb), other mitophagy markers as well as proteins hypothesised to play a role in the mechanism were examined using western blotting and immunofluorescence (ICC). Results Lower levels of pUb were detected in PoE‐5Ys treated with oligomycin/antimycin following GRN knockdown. There was a significant reduction in mitophagy in GRN siRNA treated H4 cells, detected by ICC and western blotting of mitophagy markers. Initial results from iPSC neurons found no significant difference in mitophagy between control and patient lines. Work is ongoing in a larger set of iPSC neurons, astrocytes and microglia. Preliminary results suggest that reducing progranulin affects mitophagy in astrocytes but has a limited effect on mitophagy in neurons. Conclusions The results suggest that progranulin has a cell specific role in mitophagy with progranulin regulating stability and/or activity of PINK1. Current work aims to understand the mechanisms of this process and to dissect cell‐type specific contributions of progranulin to mitophagy..
