Abstract
Subject headings
Close
- Down's syndrome (DS) patients develop early Alzheimer's disease pathology with abundant cortical amyloid plaques, likely due to overproduction of the amyloid precursor protein (APP), which subsequently leads to amyloid beta (A beta) aggregation. This is reflected in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) levels of the 42-amino acid long A beta peptide (A beta 1-42), which are increased in young DS patients and decreases with age. However, it is unclear whether DS also affects other aspects of A beta metabolism, including production of shorter C- and N-terminal truncated A beta peptides, and production of peptides from the amyloid precursor-like protein 1 (APLP1), which is related to APP, and cleaved by the same enzymatic processing machinery. APLP1-derived peptides may be surrogate markers for A beta 1-42 production in the brain. Here, we used hybrid immunoaffinity-mass spectrometry and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays to monitor several A beta and APLP1 peptides in CSF from DS patients (n = 12) and healthy controls (n = 20). CSF levels of A beta 1-42 and three endogenous peptides derived from APLP1 (APL1 beta 25, APL1 beta 27 and APL1 beta 28) were decreased in DS compared with controls, while a specific A beta peptide, A beta 1-28, was increased in a majority of the DS individuals. This study indicates that DS causes previously unknown specific alterations of APP and APLP1 metabolism.
