Abstract
SummaryParkinson’s Disease (PD) associated state of neuroinflammation due to the aggregation of aberrant proteins is widely reported. One type of post-translational modification involved in protein stability is glycosylation. Here, we aimed to characterise the human Parkinsonian nigro-striatalN-glycome, and related transcriptome/proteome, and its correlation with endoplasmic reticulum stress and unfolded protein response (UPR), providing a comprehensive characterisation of the PD molecular signature. Significant changes were seen upon PD: 3% increase in sialylation and 5% increase in fucosylation in both regions, and 2% increase in oligomannosylatedN-glycans in the substantia nigra. In the latter, a decrease in the mRNA expression of sialidases and an upregulation in the UPR pathway were also seen. To show the correlation between these, we also describe anin vitrofunctional study where changes in specific glycosylation trait enzymes (inhibition of sialyltransferases) led to impairments in cell mitochondrial activity, changes in glyco-profile and upregulation in UPR pathways. This complete characterisation of the human nigro-striatalN-glycome provides an insight into the glycomic profile of PD through a transversal approach while combining the other PD “omics” pieces, which can potentially assist in the development of glyco-focused therapeutics.
