Abstract
Caveolins are a family of transmembrane proteins located in caveolae, small lipid raft invaginations of the plasma membrane. The roles of caveolin-enriched lipid rafts are diverse, and include mechano-protection, lipid homeostasis, metabolism, transport, and cell signaling. Caveolin-1 (Cav-1) and other caveolins were described in endothelial cells and later in other cell types of the central nervous system (CNS), including neurons, astrocytes, oligodendrocytes, microglia, and pericytes. This pancellular presence of caveolins demands a better understanding of their functional roles in each cell type. In this review we describe the various functions of Cav-1 in the cells of normal and pathological brains. Several emerging preclinical findings suggest that Cav-1 could represent a potential therapeutic target in brain disorders.

[PMID: 39011540 PMCID: PMC11247024 DOI: 10.3389/fnmol.2024.1405415] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/22/2024] [Accepted: 06/14/2024] [Indexed: 07/17/2024] Open
Abstract
More than 650 reversible and irreversible post-translational modifications (PTMs) of proteins have been listed so far. Canonical PTMs of proteins consist of the covalent addition of functional or chemical groups on target backbone amino-acids or the cleavage of the protein itself, giving rise to modified proteins with specific properties in terms of stability, solubility, cell distribution, activity, or interactions with other biomolecules. PTMs of protein contribute to cell homeostatic processes, enabling basal cell functions, allowing the cell to respond and adapt to variations of its environment, and globally maintaining the constancy of the milieu interieur (the body's inner environment) to sustain human health. Abnormal protein PTMs are, however, associated with several disease states, such as cancers, metabolic disorders, or neurodegenerative diseases. Abnormal PTMs alter the functional properties of the protein or even cause a loss of protein function. One example of dramatic PTMs concerns the cellular prion protein (PrPC), a GPI-anchored signaling molecule at the plasma membrane, whose irreversible post-translational conformational conversion (PTCC) into pathogenic prions (PrPSc) provokes neurodegeneration. PrPC PTCC into PrPSc is an additional type of PTM that affects the tridimensional structure and physiological function of PrPC and generates a protein conformer with neurotoxic properties. PrPC PTCC into PrPSc in neurons is the first step of a deleterious sequence of events at the root of a group of neurodegenerative disorders affecting both humans (Creutzfeldt-Jakob diseases for the most representative diseases) and animals (scrapie in sheep, bovine spongiform encephalopathy in cow, and chronic wasting disease in elk and deer). There are currently no therapies to block PrPC PTCC into PrPSc and stop neurodegeneration in prion diseases. Here, we review known PrPC PTMs that influence PrPC conversion into PrPSc. We summarized how PrPC PTCC into PrPSc impacts the PrPC interactome at the plasma membrane and the downstream intracellular controlled protein effectors, whose abnormal activation or trafficking caused by altered PTMs promotes neurodegeneration. We discussed these effectors as candidate drug targets for prion diseases and possibly other neurodegenerative diseases.

Early proteostasis of caveolins synchronizes trafficking, degradation, and oligomerization to prevent toxic aggregation. J Cell Biol 2023; 222:e202204020. [PMID: 37526691 PMCID: PMC10394380 DOI: 10.1083/jcb.202204020] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/07/2022] [Revised: 04/05/2023] [Accepted: 06/09/2023] [Indexed: 08/02/2023] Open
Abstract
Caveolin-1 (CAV1) and CAV3 are membrane-sculpting proteins driving the formation of the plasma membrane (PM) caveolae. Within the PM mosaic environment, caveola assembly is unique as it requires progressive oligomerization of newly synthesized caveolins while trafficking through the biosynthetic-secretory pathway. Here, we have investigated these early events by combining structural, biochemical, and microscopy studies. We uncover striking trafficking differences between caveolins, with CAV1 rapidly exported to the Golgi and PM while CAV3 is initially retained in the endoplasmic reticulum and laterally moves into lipid droplets. The levels of caveolins in the endoplasmic reticulum are controlled by proteasomal degradation, and only monomeric/low oligomeric caveolins are exported into the cis-Golgi with higher-order oligomers assembling beyond this compartment. When any of those early proteostatic mechanisms are compromised, chemically or genetically, caveolins tend to accumulate along the secretory pathway forming non-functional aggregates, causing organelle damage and triggering cellular stress. Accordingly, we propose a model in which disrupted proteostasis of newly synthesized caveolins contributes to pathogenesis.

Abstract
The plasma membrane of eukaryotic cells contains small flask-shaped invaginations known as caveolae that are involved in the regulation of cellular signaling. Caveolin-1 is a 21-24kDa protein localized in the caveolar membrane. Caveolin-1 (Cav-1) has been considered as a master regulator among the various signaling molecules. It has been emerging as a chief protein regulating cellular events associated with homeostasis, caveolae formation, and caveolae trafficking. In addition to the physiological role of cav-1, it has a complex role in the progression of various diseases. Caveolin-1 has been identified as a prognosticator in patients with cancer and has a dual role in tumorigenesis. The expression of Cav-1 in hippocampal neurons and synapses is related to neurodegeneration, cognitive decline, and aging. Despite the ubiquitous association of caveolin-1 in various pathological processes, the mechanisms associated with these events are still unclear. Caveolin-1 has a significant role in various events of the viral cycle, such as viral entry. This review will summarize the role of cav-1 in the development of cancer, neurodegeneration, glaucoma, cardiovascular diseases, and infectious diseases. The therapeutic perspectives involving clinical applications of Caveolin-1 have also been discussed. The understanding of the involvement of caveolin-1 in various diseased states provides insights into how it can be explored as a novel therapeutic target.

Abstract
Unipolar depression has been recognized as one of the major diseases by the World Health Organization in the 21st century. The etiology of depression is complicated and includes genetic factors, stress, aging, and special physical status (pregnancy, metabolic syndrome, and trauma). Numerous animal and human studies have demonstrated that n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (n-3 PUFAs) are highly correlated to cognition and depression. These nutritional antidepressants, including EPA and DHA, have a range of neurobiological activities contributing to their potential antidepressant effects. Our preclinical and clinical studies have indicated that n-3 PUFA supplementation in addition to standard antidepressant medications may provide synergistic neuroprotective and antioxidant/inflammatory effects. To translate our preliminary findings into clinical application, this paper reviews the existing evidence on the antidepressant effects of n-3 PUFAs and the potential underlying mechanisms, which include modulation of chronic lowgrade inflammation and the corresponding changes in peripheral blood immune biomarkers.

Abstract
The Sonic hedgehog (SHH) pathway affects neurogenesis and neural patterning during the development of the central nervous system. Dysregulation of the SHH pathway in the brain contributes to aging-related neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease, and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. At present, the SHH signaling pathway can be divided into the canonical signaling pathway and non-canonical signaling pathway, which directly or indirectly mediates other related pathways involved in the development of neurodegenerative diseases. Hence, an in-depth knowledge of the SHH signaling pathway may open an avenue of possibilities for the treatment of neurodegenerative diseases. Here, we summarize the role and mechanism of the SHH signaling pathway in the development of the central nervous system and aging-related neurodegenerative diseases. In this review, we will also highlight the potential of the SHH pathway as a therapeutic target for treating neurodegenerative diseases.

Abstract
Many prospective studies have shown that a diet enriched in omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (n-3 PUFAs) can improve cognitive function during normal aging and prevent the development of neurocognitive diseases. However, researchers have not elucidated how n-3 PUFAs are transferred from the blood to the brain or how they relate to cognitive scores. Transport into and out of the central nervous system depends on two main sets of barriers: the blood-brain barrier (BBB) between peripheral blood and brain tissue and the blood-cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) barrier (BCSFB) between the blood and the CSF. In this review, the current knowledge of how lipids cross these barriers to reach the CNS is presented and discussed. Implications of these processes in health and disease, particularly during aging and neurodegenerative diseases, are also addressed. An assessment provided here is that the current knowledge of how lipids cross these barriers in humans is limited, which hence potentially restrains our capacity to intervene in and prevent neurodegenerative diseases.
