Here, we genetically engineered fission yeast to express human α-Syn C-terminally fused to green fluorescent protein (GFP) at low and high levels. α-Syn was localized at the cell tips and septa at low-level expression. At high-level expression, α-Syn was observed to form cytoplasmic aggregates. Notably, rapamycin, a natural product that allosterically inhibits the mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) by forming a complex with FKBP12, and Torin1, a synthetic mTOR inhibitor that blocks ATP binding to mTOR, markedly reduced the number of cells harboring α-Syn aggregates. These mTOR inhibitors abrogate α-Syn aggregation without affecting α-Syn expression levels. Rapamycin, but not Torin1, failed to reduce α-Syn aggregation in the deletion cells of <i>fkh1</i><sup>+</sup>, encoding FKBP12, indicating the requirement of FKBP12 for rapamycin-mediated inhibition of α-Syn aggregation.

Therefore, we here analyzed the importance of the presence of intestinal microbiota in the pathogenesis of acute liver injury, using D-galactosamine (D-GalN)/lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-treated mice, which is a widely used experimental model of acute liver injury. First, administration of the antibiotic polymyxin B markedly alleviated liver injury. Liver injury was also reduced in germ-free mice, leading to the conclusion that the presence of intestinal microbiota aggravates D-GalN/LPS-induced liver injury. The amount of bacteria and LPS transferred from the gut to the blood was not increased by D-GalN/LPS, suggesting that the worsening of liver injury was not simply owing to the entry of bacteria into the circulation. In conclusion, acute liver injury in polymyxin B-pretreated or germ-free mice was ameliorated by modulation of the gut microbiota.
