Using a multi-omics approach in both TSPO-KO- and TSPO ligand-treated mice, we have demonstrated a key role for TSPO in microglial respiratory metabolism and phagocytosis in AD.

The amyloidogenic proteins and peptides involved in these processes are targeted against almost all organs. In brain they are associated with neurodegenerative disease, and the Translocator Protein (TSPO), overexpressed in these inflammatory conditions, is one of the target for the diagnostic. Moreover, TSPO ligands have been described as promising therapeutic drugs for neurodegenerative diseases. Type 2 diabetes, another amyloidosis, is due to a beta cell mass decrease that has been linked to hIAPP (human islet amyloid polypeptide) fibril formation, leading to the reduction of insulin production. In the present study, in a first approach, we link overexpression of TSPO and inflammation in potentially prediabetic patients. In a second approach, we observed that TSPO deficient rats have higher level of insulin secretion in basal conditions and more IAPP fibrils formation compared with wild type animals. In a third approach, we show that diabetogenic conditions also increase TSPO overexpression and IAPP fibril formation in rat beta pancreatic cell line (INS-1E). These data open the way for further studies in the field of type 2 diabetes treatment or prevention.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":251,"journal":{"name":"Biochimie","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":3.3,"publicationDate":"2024-06-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141441225","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Mammalian Stearoyl-CoA desaturases (SCD), particularly SCD1, play a crucial role in modulating the fatty acid composition of cellular lipids, converting saturated fatty acids (SFA) into monounsaturated fatty acids (MUFA) in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). Extensive research has elucidated in great detail the participation of SCD1 in the molecular mechanisms that govern cell replication in normal and cancer cells. More recently, investigations have shed new light on the functional and regulatory role of the Δ9-desaturase in the processes of cell stress and cell death.
