Optineurin regulates motor and learning behaviors by affecting dopaminergic neuron survival in mice
Optineurin (OPTN) is an autophagy receptor that participates in the degradation of damaged mitochondria, protein aggregates, and invading pathogens. OPTN is closely related to various types of neurodegenerative diseases. However, the role of OPTN in the central nervous system is unclear. Here, we found that OPTN dysregulation in the compact part of substantia nigra (SNc) led to motor and learning deficits in animal models. Knockdown of OPTN increased total and phosphorylated α-synuclein levels which induced microglial activation and dopaminergic neuronal loss in the SNc. Overexpression of OPTN can't reverse the motor and learning phenotypes. Mechanistic analysis revealed that upregulation of OPTN increased α-synuclein phosphorylation independent of its autophagy receptor activity, which further resulted in microglial activation and dopaminergic neuronal loss similar to OPTN downregulation. Our study uncovers the crucial role of OPTN in maintaining dopaminergic neuron survival and motor and learning functions which are disrupted in PD patients.
