UNASSIGNED: To achieve further understanding of how processes are altered by loss of sacsin, we used untargeted proteomics to compare protein profiles in ARSACS fibroblasts versus controls.
UNASSIGNED: Our analyses confirmed the involvement of known biological pathways and also implicated calcium and lipid homeostasis in ARSACS skin fibroblasts, a finding further verified in SH-SY5Y SACS -/- cells. Validation through mass spectrometry-based analysis and comparative quantification of lipids by LC-MS in fibroblasts revealed increased levels of ceramides coupled with a reduction of diacylglycerols.
UNASSIGNED: In addition to confirming aberrant Ca2+ homeostasis in ARSACS, this study described abnormal lipid levels associated with loss of sacsin.
■为了进一步了解sacsin的丢失是如何改变过程的,我们使用非靶向蛋白质组学比较了ARSACS成纤维细胞与对照的蛋白质谱.
■我们的分析证实了ARSACS皮肤成纤维细胞中已知的生物学途径以及钙和脂质稳态的参与,这一发现在SH-SY5YSACS-/-细胞中得到了进一步验证。通过基于质谱的分析和通过LC-MS对成纤维细胞中的脂质进行比较定量的验证表明,神经酰胺的水平增加,二酰甘油的减少。
■除了证实ARSACS中异常的Ca2+稳态外,这项研究描述了与sacsin丢失相关的异常脂质水平。
