摘 要:

阿尔茨海默病(Alzheimer's disease, AD) 是一种老年人常见的中枢神经系统退行性疾病。泛素化和去泛素化过程失调导致蛋白质异常聚集是AD 发生发展的主要原因。E3 泛素连接酶(E3 ubiquitin ligases, E3s) 调控底物蛋白的泛素化,可促进β 淀粉样蛋白(amyloid-β, Aβ) 和过度磷酸化Tau 蛋白的清除,改善突
触及神经元的功能。去泛素化酶(deubiquitinating enzymes, DUBs) 去除底物蛋白的泛素化修饰,可抑制Aβ和过度磷酸化Tau 蛋白的降解,引起神经炎症。因为E3s 和DUBs 并不通过单一途径来促进或者抑制AD的发生发展,所以本文以E3s 和DUBs 所属亚族为切入点,综述了E3s 和DUBs 在AD 中作用机制的最新研究进展。

Abstract:

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a common degenerative  disease of the central nervous system in the elderly.
Abnormal process in ubiquitination and deubiquitination leading to abnormal protein aggregation is a major cause
of the development of AD. E3 ubiquitin ligases (E3s)  regulate the ubiquitination of substrate proteins, promote the clearance of amyloid-β and Tau proteins, and improve synaptic and neuronal functions. Deubiquitinating enzymes (DUBs) remove the ubiquitination modification of  substrate proteins, inhibit the degradation of amyloid-β and Tau proteins, and cause  neuroinflammation. Since E3s and  DUBs do not promote or inhibit the development of AD through a single pathway, this paper reviews the latest  research progress on the mechanism of E3s and DUBs in AD,  using the subfamilies to which they belong as an entry point.
