Article Citation - WoS: 1Citation - Scopus: 1Lithium Treatment Rescues Dysfunctional Autophagy in the Cell Models of Tay-Sachs Disease(Academic Press Inc., 2024) Basirli,H.; Can,M.; Sengul,T.; Seyrantepe,V.Tay-Sachs disease is a rare lysosomal storage disorder (LSD) caused by a mutation in the HexA gene coding β-hexosaminidase A enzyme. The disruption of the HexA gene causes the accumulation of GM2 ganglioside resulting in progressive neurodegeneration in humans. Surprisingly, Hexa−/− mice did not show neurological phenotypes. Our group recently generated a murine model of Tay-Sachs disease exhibiting excessive GM2 accumulation and severe neuropathological abnormalities mimicking Tay-Sachs patients. Previously, we reported impaired autophagic flux in the brain of Hexa/-Neu3−/− mice. However, regulation of autophagic flux using inducers has not been clarified in Tay-Sachs disease cells. Here, we evaluated the effects of lithium treatment on dysfunctional autophagic flux using LC3 and p62 in the fibroblast and neuroglia of Hexa−/-Neu3−/− mice and Tay-Sachs patients. We discovered the clearance of accumulating autophagosomes, aggregate-prone metabolites, and GM2 ganglioside under lithium-induced conditions. Our data suggest that targeting autophagic flux with an autophagy inducer might be a rational therapeutic strategy for the treatment of Tay-Sachs disease. © 2024 Elsevier Inc.Conference Object Brain Lipid Profile of Early Onset Tay-Sachs Disease Mouse Model(Springernature, 2020) Şengül, Tuğçe; Can, Melike; Akyıldız Demir, Seçil; Klose, C.; Surma, M.; Seyrantepe, Volkan[Abstract Not Available]Conference Object Role of Oxidative Stress in the Pathogenesis of Tay-Sachs Disease Mouse Model(Springernature, 2020) Ateş, Nurselin; Başırlı, Hatice Hande; Çalışkan, Tufan Utku; Nalbant, Ayten; Seyrantepe, Volkan[Abstract Not Available]
