  • Mass spectrometry imaging reveals brain-region specific changes in metabolism and acetylcholine levels in experimental Parkinson’s disease and L-DOPA-induced dyskinesia
  • Annan publikation (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
    • There is evidence that cholinergic alterations are linked to various motor and non-motor symptoms of Parkinson’s disease. We therefore used mass spectrometry imaging to investigate regional changes in acetylcholine abundance in the brain of a non-human primate model of Parkinson’s disease (PD) and L-DOPA-induced dyskinesia (LID). We also present an experimental design for performing untargeted analysis using MALDI-MSI with multiple experiments incorporating quality control samples to monitor experimental variability. We observed that MPTP treatment (i) led to reductions in putaminal acetylcholine levels that persisted after L-DOPA treatment and (ii) appeared to induce a shift of choline metabolism from α-glycerophosphocholine towards betaine. LID animals exhibited reduced levels of various metabolites important for brain homeostasis including S-adenosylmethionine, glutathione, adenosine monophosphate, and acylcarnitines. The vasculature marker heme B was upregulated in the putamen of LID animals, suggesting increased blood-flow in the dyskinetic putamen. These results provide new insights into pathological choline-related metabolic changes in PD and LID.

  • Mass spectrometry imaging of multiple basal ganglia neuropeptides shows abnormal neuropeptide processing associated with L-DOPA-induced dyskinesia in a primate model of Parkinson’s disease
  • Annan publikation (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
    • L-DOPA administration is the primary treatment for Parkinson’s disease (PD) but long-term administration is usually accompanied by hyperkinetic side-effects called L-DOPA-induced dyskinesia (LID). Signalling neuropeptides of the basal ganglia are affected in LID and alterations in the expression of neuropeptide precursors have been described, but the final products of the precursors are not well defined and regionally mapped. Thus, we used matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry imaging to visualize and quantify neuropeptides in 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine exposed parkinsonian and LID Macaca mulatta brain samples. We found that the abundance of some abnormally processed peptides—des-tyrosine dynorphins, substance P (1-7) and substance P (1-9)—correlated with dyskinesia severity in multiple brain regions. Other dynorphins, α-neoendorphin and neurokinin A correlated with regional L-DOPA or dopamine levels in the internal and external globus pallidus. Our results demonstrate that the abundance of selected active neuropeptides is associated with local L-DOPA and dopamine concentrations, but the severity of LID is associated with loss of N-terminal tyrosine from dynorphin peptides and C-terminal truncation of substance P peptides, modifications that generally reduce the neuropeptides’ activity.
