摘要
Polypeptide N-acetylgalactosamine transferase 9 (GALNT9) catalyzes the initial step of mucin-type O-glycosylation via linking N-acetylgalactosamine (GalNAc) to serine/threonine in a protein. To unravel the association of GALNT9 with Parkinson's disease (PD), a progressive neurodegenerative disorder, GALNT9 levels were evaluated in the patients with PD and mice treated with 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine, and statistically analyzed based on the GEO datasets of GSE114918 and GSE216281. Glycoproteins with exposing GalNAc were purified using lectin affinity chromatography and identified by LC-MS/MS. The influence of GALNT9 on cells was evaluated via introducing a GALNT9-specific siRNA into SH-SY5Y cells. Consequently, GALNT9 deficiency was found to occur under PD conditions. GALNT9 silencing contributed to a causative factor in PD pathogenesis via reducing the levels of intracellular dopamine, tyrosine hydroxylase and soluble α-synuclein, and promoting α-synuclein aggregates. MS identification revealed 14 glycoproteins. 5 glycoproteins, including ACO2, ATP5B, CKB, CKMT1A, ALDOC, were associated with energy metabolism. GALNT9 silencing resulted in mitochondrial dysfunctions via increasing ROS accumulation, mitochondrial membrane depolarization, mPTPs opening, Ca2+ releasing and activation of the CytC-related apoptotic pathway. The dysfunctional mitochondria then triggered mitophagy, possibly intermediated by adenine nucleotide translocase 1. Our study suggests that GALNT9 is potentially developed into an auxiliary diagnostic index and therapeutic target of PD.
