Lysosomal Storage Disease
Module 755
The Brain in Health and Disease

Lysosomal Storage Disease (Amaurotic Idiocy)
c.a. 45 autosomal recessive diseases
Individually rare
Collectively occur c.a. 1/8000 live births
Cause death in early to late childhood (after normal infancy)
Varying involvement of the nervous system
All ‘store’ material in the lysosome due to defects in
substrate degradation or biogenesis of the lysosome
The Lysosome
subcellular electron dense organelle
filled with c.a. 70 hydrolytic enzymes: will break down all
biological macromolecules
low pH (~4.0), membrane bound
Considered the ‘gut’ or garbage disposal unit of cell
Material for degradation trafficked to lysosome via endocytosis
or autophagy
Lysosomal enzymes trafficked to lysosome via M6P receptor
pathway
Delivering material for
degradation to the lysosome:
endocytosis and autophagy
Endosome to lysosome:
decreasing pH, membrane
limited.
Autophagy: controls cell size,
used during caloric restriction,
Phagocytosis:- degrades
‘dead’ cells, pathogens
Autophagy and phagocytosis
meet in the Phagolysosome
Professional Phagocytes:
macrophages, neutrophils
Endocytosis in the nervous system
The polarised and extended
structure of the neuron creates
a trafficking problem for neurons:
‘lysosomes’ (as we know them!)
not present at synapse.
Late endosomal markers present:
fuse with lysosomes in the soma
QuickTime™ and a
TIFF (Uncompressed) decompressor
are needed to see this picture.
Delivering degradative enzymes and cofactors to the lysosome, the M6P/M6PR
pathway.
Mannose-6-phosphate group added to lysosomal
hydrolases via N-linked oligosaccharides as
hydrolases transit through cis-golgi
M6P recognised by M6P-receptors in trans-golgi:
delivers them to late endosome
Lower pH causes dissociation
M6PR then retrieved in late endosome
and trafficked for re-use in trans-golgi
(recognised via C-terminal tail).
General outline of LSD dysfunction:
Mutations arising in hydrolytic enzyme, co-factor or
factor essential of enzyme delivery to lysosome
Also, factors essential for lysosome function and
biogenesis (membrane proteins, channels and proteins of
unknown function) plus factors for protein traffic to lysosome
Material (substrate) continues to be delivered to lysosome
resulting in ‘stored’ material, usually ‘primary’ and ‘secondary’
leads to swollen lysosomes
Developmental dysfunction and early death: symptoms
v. variable, varying involvement of different tissues
General Cellular Phenotype:
Swollen, multilammellar ‘osmiophilic endosomes/lysosomes
(function? pH?)
Accumulation of lipofuscin/ceroid ‘ageing pigment’
Defects in autophagy (?)
Appearance of meganeurites (variable)
QuickTime™ and a
TIFF (Uncompressed) decompressor
are needed to see this picture.
Cellular phenotype contd.
Excessive synaptogenesis/dendritogenesis
(MPS and sphingolipidoses)
Shrinkage of the CNS (variable)
Mistrafficking of cholesterol
(cholesterol recycling?)
Why are symptoms and effects in different organs variable?
tissue turnover rates?
presence (or relative abundance) of substrate?
sensitivity of cell type (neurons and polarity)?
What is the ‘pathogenic cascade’?
(volume of substrate not key!!!)
Classification :
Mucopolysaccharidoses (variable nervous system involvement)
Mucolipidoses (originally considered an MPS)
Glycoproteinoses
Glycogen storage
Sphingolipidoses
Lipid storage disorders

The Drosophila neuromuscular junction:
A model glutamatergic synapse
http://132.236.112.18/fruitfly/shaker/physiology/
spinster synapses are overgrown
spinster
suppresses
synaptic growth
spinster mutants
have a shortened
lifespan
spinster encodes a twelve transmembrane transporter
4 transcripts = 12 TM domains
1 transcript = 8 TM domains
Spin localises to a low pH late-endosomal compartment
A low pH compartment is expanded in spin mutants
Loss of spinster induces a redistribution of cholesterol
WT
filipin
spin4/spin5
spinster identifies a novel component of the late endosome/lysosome that when mutated gives
rise to all of the hallmarks of lysosomal storage disease
spinster potentially identifies a signalling pathway driving synaptic overgrowth
Summary
Lysosomal storage disease are caused by defects in lysosomal hydrolases and proteins
essential to lysosomal biogenesis/function
LSD lysosomal defects give rise to swollen lysosomes, developmental and degenerative
defects with varying involvement of the nervous system due to ‘storage’ of material
in the lysosome.
Lysosomal storage diseases identify proteins essential to lysosomal function
LSDs cause death in childhood (generally) after normal infancy
LSDs are essentially incurable, but some are treatable to varying degrees.
Model organisms are helping to define the biology of the LSDs, in particular the
‘pathogenic cascade’
