Novel FABP3 ligand, HY-11-9, ameliorates neuropathological deficits in MPTP-induced Parkinsonism in mice
Parkinson's disease (PD) is characterized by dopaminergic (DAergic) neuronal loss in the substantia nigra pars compacta (SNpc), resulting from α-synuclein (αSyn) toxicity. We previously reported that αSyn oligomerization and toxicity are regulated by the fatty-acid binding protein 3 (FABP3), an...

description | Parkinson's disease (PD) is characterized by dopaminergic (DAergic) neuronal loss in the substantia nigra pars compacta (SNpc), resulting from α-synuclein (αSyn) toxicity. We previously reported that αSyn oligomerization and toxicity are regulated by the fatty-acid binding protein 3 (FABP3), and the therapeutic effects of the FABP3 ligand, MF1, was successfully demonstrated in PD models. Here, we developed a novel and potent ligand, HY-11-9, which has a higher affinity for FABP3 (Kd = 11.7 ± 8.8) than MF1 (Kd = 302.8 ± 130.3). We also investigated whether the FABP3 ligand can ameliorate neuropathological deterioration after the onset of disease in 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine (MPTP)-induced Parkinsonism. Motor deficits were observed two weeks after MPTP treatment. Notably, oral administration of HY-11-9 (0.03 mg/kg) improved motor deficits in both beam-walking and rotarod tasks, whereas MF1 failed to improve the motor deficits in both tasks. Consistent with the behavioral tasks, HY-11-9 recovered dopamine neurons from MPTP toxicity in the substantia nigra and ventral tegmental areas. Furthermore, HY-11-9 reduced the accumulation of phosphorylated-serine129-α-synuclein (pS129-αSyn) and colocalization with FABP3 in tyrosine hydroxylase (TH)-positive DA neurons in the PD mouse model. Overall, HY-11-9 significantly improved MPTP-induced behavioral and neuropathological deterioration, suggesting that it may be a potential candidate for PD therapy. |
