Inhibition of cathepsin B blocks amyloidogenesis in the mouse models of neurological lysosomal diseases mucopolysaccharidosis type IIIC and sialidosis
2025-01-23
Abstract excerpt
Neuronal accumulation of amyloid aggregates is a hallmark of brain pathology in neurological lysosomal storage diseases (LSDs) including mucopolysaccharidoses (MPS), however, the molecular mechanism underlaying this pathology has not been understood. We demonstrate that elevated lysosomal cathepsin B (CTSB) levels and CTSB leakage to the cytoplasm triggers amyloidogenesis in two neurological LSDs. CTSB levels were...
