However, whether astrocyte dysfunction can cause synaptic pathologies in neurological disorders such as Parkinson's Disease (PD) is unknown. Here, we investigated the impact of the most common PD-linked mutation in the leucine-rich repeat kinase 2 (LRRK2) gene (G2019S) on the synaptic functions of astrocytes. We found that both in human and mouse cortex, the LRRK2 G2019S mutation causes astrocyte morphology deficits and enhances the phosphorylation of the ERM proteins (Ezrin, Radixin, and Moesin), which are important components of perisynaptic astrocyte processes. Reducing ERM phosphorylation in LRRK2 G2019S mouse astrocytes restored astrocyte morphology and corrected excitatory synaptic deficits. Using an in vivo BioID proteomic approach, we found Ezrin, the most abundant astrocytic ERM protein, interacts with the Autophagy-Related 7 (Atg7), a master regulator of catabolic processes. The Ezrin/Atg7 interaction is inhibited by Ezrin phosphorylation, thus diminished in the LRRK2 G2019S astrocytes. Importantly, Atg7 function is required to maintain proper astrocyte morphology. These studies reveal an astrocytic molecular mechanism that could serve as a therapeutic target in PD.","PeriodicalId":42033,"journal":{"name":"ANTIKE UND ABENDLAND","volume":"32 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-08-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11383028/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"89020817","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"历史学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
