Definitions
- the present invention relates to the medical field, and is of particular interest to pharmacological research units.
- the invention relates in fact to a method for screening compounds with anti-amyloid properties.
- the invention implements biochemical techniques for the ex vivo analysis of biological samples making it possible to rapidly identify compounds intended for the curative and / or preventive treatment of neurodegenerative diseases and of Alzheimer's disease in particular .
- the subject of the invention is a method for screening compounds having the ability to dissociate high affinity complexes between the ⁇ -amyloid peptide and the nicotinic acetylcholine receptor of human cortex tissues.
- Alzheimer's disease is a progressive neurodegenerative disease that affects a large proportion of the elderly population. This disease is clinically characterized by a loss of memory and a decline in cognitive function. Neuropathologically, Alzheimer's disease is characterized by the presence of two types of brain histopathological lesions: amyloid plaques and neurofibrillary degeneration (DNF). A third characteristic of Alzheimer's disease is cortical atrophy corresponding to pronounced neuronal loss.
- DNF neurofibrillary degeneration
- a ⁇ ⁇ -amyloid peptides
- amyloid plaques or senile plaques around the neurons would be at the origin of the etiology of Alzheimer's disease.
- amyloid deposits represents the early and invariable characteristic of all forms of Alzheimer's disease, including familial forms.
- Neurofibrillary degeneration is an intraneuronal accumulation of fibrils formed of helically paired filaments or PHFs (paired helical filaments).
- PHFs are constituted by the assembly of tau microtubular proteins. The biochemical characterization of these proteins reveals the presence of a major triplet of tau proteins abnormally phosphorylated (tau 60, 64 and 69) and aggregated.
- Normal tau protein is phosphorylated 2 to 3 times as opposed to 5 to 9 times in Alzheimer's disease and plays a role in the polymerization-depolymerization of microtubules of the neuronal cytoskeleton as well as in axonal transport.
- Cortical atrophy results in a loss of 8 to 10% of brain weight every 10 years in patients with Alzheimer's disease, while in healthy subjects this loss is only 2%. Cortical atrophy is accompanied by dilated cerebral ventricles and cortical furrows, reduced hippocampal volume, and neuronal loss, particularly affecting the cholinergic system.
- the amyloid plaques result from spherical deposits of amyloid substance.
- the amyloid substance consists of filaments of a polypeptide of 39 to 43 amino acids called A ⁇ ( ⁇ -amyloid).
- the ⁇ -amyloid peptide has a ⁇ -sheet conformation conferring on it its insoluble character and its toxicity.
- the ⁇ -amyloid peptide is a normal catabolic product of a large membrane glycoprotein called APP (amyloid precursor protein).
- APP amyloid precursor protein
- the amyloid plaques are surrounded by neuritic extensions and glial cells. The amyloid plaques impregnate the nervous parenchyma and diffuse into the cortical gray matter of all brain regions. The occipital cortex seems more frequently affected by these amyloid deposits.
- the neurotoxicity of ⁇ -amyloid peptide is a major problem of Alzheimer's disease.
- amyloid plaques located in the extracellular space are derived from cell lysis of neurons with a very large accumulation of amyloid deposits in the lysosomal compartment. This intraneuronal accumulation causes degeneration of the neuronal cell and cell death and release of these deposits in the extracellular space, gradually forming the amyloid plaques (Nagele et al., 2002). Amyloid plaques are surrounded by neuritic extensions and glial cells and contain fragments of nuclei, evidence that they come from dead neurons. The ⁇ 7-type nicotinic receptor plays a key role in the entry of A ⁇ peptide into neurons (D'Andréa and Nagele 2006). Wang et al.
- a ⁇ peptide binds specifically and with high affinity to ⁇ 7 nicotinic acetylcholine receptors ( ⁇ 7 nAChR) present at the extracellular surface of the neuron (Wang et al., 2000).
- the interaction of the A ⁇ peptide, in particular the A ⁇ 42 peptide, with the ⁇ 7 nAChR receptor appears to be an essential and prior stage for the intraneuronal accumulation of the A ⁇ 42 - ⁇ 7 nAChR complexes, said complexes on the surface of the neurons being subjected to endocytosis leading to their accumulation in the lysosomal compartment (Nagele et al., 2002).
- a first method consists of an injection of ⁇ -amyloid peptides in brains of mice, performed using a cannula ⁇ in the intra-cerebroventricular (icv) position.
- This method (Yamada et al 2005, Mazzola et al., 2003) makes it possible to obtain mice with a memory deficit after 7 days of exogenous supply of ⁇ -amyloid peptides.
- This mouse model is obtained quickly and can be used to test new products in the treatment of neurodegenerative diseases and Alzheimer's disease in particular.
- This method is based on a model that does not exactly represent the pathophysiology of Alzheimer's disease.
- this method of identifying compounds acting on the A ⁇ 42 - ⁇ 7 nAChR complex has no apparent validity since the tau pathology of cerebral aging does not develop in this mouse model.
- the present murine model does not respect a construction validity, given that, on the one hand, the ⁇ -amyloid peptides are of exogenous origin and not naturally produced by the animal and, on the other hand, the model is animal and not human.
- the injection of exogenous ⁇ -amyloid peptides into mouse brains requires working in vivo which rules out this method of routine use for the screening and identification of anti-Alzheimer compounds.
- transgenic mice as a model of Alzheimer's disease, carrying mutations present in familial forms of Alzheimer's disease, on APP and / or PS1 (presenilin-1) genes. These models therefore have an undeniable construction validity for family forms but very questionable for sporadic forms that represent more than 97% of cases.
- a first type of transgenic mouse has only one mutation on APP (Hsiao et al., 1996) or a double mutation on APP and PS1 (Holcomb et al., 1998).
- the descriptive validity of the transgenic models described above is not complete since they do not reliably reproduce the physiopathological characteristics associated with Alzheimer's disease. Indeed, we observe on the one hand an absence of degeneration neurofibrillary, on the other hand little or no neuronal loss as well as late onset of senile plaques in the cortex of single or double transgenic mice. Consequently, the use of single or double transgenic mouse models is not recommended in view of the physiological differences existing with Alzheimer's disease and the delay at which the lesions associated with this pathology appear.
- transgenic mouse model comprising three mutated genes (APP, PS1 and tau) (LaFerla et al., 2003) also has disadvantages.
- the construction validity of this model is questionable since a mutation in the tau gene, not present in humans with Alzheimer's disease, is added compared to previous models.
- the descriptive validity of this model is good since it mimics the physiological lesions of Alzheimer's disease that consist of amyloid plaques, neurofibrillary tangles and neuronal loss.
- this method requires a delay of 6 months to 12 months before obtaining mice with the typical lesions of Alzheimer's disease. Consequently, this transgenic mouse model can be validly used in a method for confirming the anti-amyloid properties of a test compound but can not reasonably be used as a first-line for the screening of compounds in view of the duration and the difficulty of implementing said model.
- a third method (Wang et al., 2000) is to test the ability of compounds to prevent the formation of exogenously delivered A ⁇ peptide complexes and ⁇ 7 present in rat tissues (hippocampal and rat cortex synaptosomes).
- This in vitro method is more rapidly implemented than the methods described above, however it has the disadvantage of not being representative of the complexes present in humans since they are extracts of rat brains and A ⁇ peptides are provided. exogenous way. Consequently, this model does not respect the conditions of validity of construction nor those of descriptive validity required for the use of the latter in a method of screening compounds capable of acting on the complex A ⁇ 42 - ⁇ 7 nAChR at the origin amyloid plaque formation.
- the object of the present invention is therefore to propose an alternative strategy to the methods for identifying compounds capable of acting on the ⁇ -amyloid- ⁇ 7 nAChR complexes, in order to remedy at least in part the drawbacks already known from the selection methods. said compounds.
- the invention therefore proposes an ex vivo screening method recreating the physiological conditions present in patients suffering from Alzheimer's disease. These optimal conditions are obtained by using human brains, in particular frontal cortex derived from patients suffering from Alzheimer's disease. This model fulfills by definition the criteria of validity of construction and descriptive validity since it is a direct use of the diseased human tissue.
- the ex vivo conditions of the screening method according to the invention make it possible to remove the constraints related to the production and manipulation of animal models.
- human biological materials makes it possible to overcome all the artifacts and errors related to the physiological differences existing between animal and human species.
- the use of human biological materials in the context of the screening method according to the invention is particularly important in view of the fact that Alzheimer's disease and neurodegenerative pathologies in general do not exist naturally in other species. than the human species.
- the invention thus relates to a method for screening compounds capable of dissociating or preventing ⁇ -amyloid peptide complexes with nicotinic acetylcholine receptors derived from human brains.
- the invention relates to a method for screening compounds capable of dissociating or preventing ⁇ -amyloid peptide complexes with ⁇ 7 nicotinic acetylcholine receptors derived from human brains.
- the screening method according to the invention therefore makes it possible to identify compounds with curative or preventive properties depending on whether these compounds are respectively capable of dissociating or preventing the A ⁇ 42 - ⁇ 7 nAChR complexes.

- the screening method comprises the following steps of incubation of ⁇ -amyloid peptide complexes with nicotinic acetylcholine receptors in presence or in the absence of a test compound, then determining the amount of undissociated complexes in the presence or absence of test compound and the evaluation of the difference in the amount of undissociated complexes, said difference indicating that the test compound modulates the dissociation of ⁇ -amyloid peptide complexes with nicotinic acetylcholine receptors.
- the screening method according to the invention also comprises a step of isolating the non-dissociated complexes of ⁇ -amyloid peptides with the nicotinic acetylcholine receptors using antibodies to the ⁇ -amyloid peptide.
- the anti- ⁇ -amyloid peptide antibodies used in the screening method are directed against the ⁇ -amyloid peptides A ⁇ 39 , A ⁇ 40 , A ⁇ 41 , A ⁇ 42 and / or A ⁇ 43 .

The treatments with A ⁇ 42 (1 ⁇ M) and S 24795 (10 ⁇ M) are performed on cortex slices from these brains. Synaptosomes are then prepared as described in 1.4. In order to evaluate the influx of Ca 2+ by the ⁇ 7 and NMDA receptors, the synaptosomes are incubated in the presence of 45 Ca 2+ (5 ⁇ M) for 5 minutes at 37 ° C.
- the screening method makes it possible to identify a preventive property of S 24795, added before the A ⁇ peptides, on the formation of the A ⁇ 42 - ⁇ 7 nAChR complexes.
- S 24795 added before the A ⁇ peptides
- FIG. 1 the addition of A ⁇ peptides to synaptosomes of non-diseased human cortex induces a sharp increase in the amount of A ⁇ 42 - ⁇ 7 nAChR complexes.
- the screening method makes it possible to identify a curative property of S 24795 since dissociating complexes formed before the death of the patient.
- S 24795 induces a major decrease in the amount of A ⁇ 42 - ⁇ 7 nAChR complexes present in diseased brains.
- the results illustrated in FIG. 3 confirm the ability of the screening method to identify a compound with a curative property in that, without the addition of A ⁇ peptides, this compound can induce dissociation of complexes already present in diseased human tissues.
- This screening method therefore makes it possible to specifically select compounds capable of preventing complex formation, which is applicable to early stages of the disease where the compounds have a preventive action, and secondly to dissociate already existing complexes, which is applicable to advanced or even severe stages of the disease, where the compounds have a curative action.
- the dissociation of the complexes A ⁇ 42 - ⁇ 7 nAChR will prevent the excessive intraneuronal accumulation of complexes A ⁇ 42 - ⁇ 7 nAChR and consequently oppose to the neuronal death due to these deposits.
- the realization of the screening method according to the invention from synaptosomes of human brains avoids the artifacts and false-positives related to the differences between the animal and human species.
- the ex vivo implementation of this screening method makes it possible to obtain a speed and a repeatability for the identification of compounds capable of to dissociate ⁇ -amyloid peptide complexes with nicotinic acetylcholine receptors.
- this screening method is carried out on biological material representing a severe and fixed stage of Alzheimer's disease, it makes it possible to select and identify compounds acting at an ultimate stage of the disease.
- the screening method according to the invention ensures the identification of compounds that can be used in the curative treatment of neurodegenerative diseases and of Alzheimer's disease in particular.
