We examined a neuronal cell system in which
single-cell expression of either familial Alzheimer's disease (FAD)
gene V642I-APP or K595N/M596L-APP (NL-APP) in an inducible plasmid was
controlled without affecting transfection efficiency. This system
revealed that (i) low expression of both mutants exerted toxicity
sensitive to both Ac-DEVD-CHO (DEVD) and glutathione ethyl ester (GEE), whereas wild-type APP (wtAPP) only at higher expression levels caused
GEE/DEVD-resistant death to lesser degrees; (ii) toxicity by the V642I
mutation was entirely GEE/DEVD sensitive; and (iii) toxicity by higher
expression of NL-APP was GEE/DEVD resistant. The GEE/DEVD-sensitive
death was sensitive to pertussis toxin and was due to
Go-interacting
His657-Lys676 domain. The
GEE/DEVD-resistant death was due to C-terminal
Met677-Asn695. APP mutants lacking either
domain unraveled elaborate intracellular cross-talk between these
domains. E618Q-APP, responsible for non-AD type of a human disease,
only exerted GEE/DEVD-resistant death at higher expression. Therefore,
(i) different FAD mutations in APP cause neuronal cell death through
different cytoplasmic domains via different sets of mechanisms; (ii)
expression levels of FAD genes are critical in activating specific
death mechanisms; and (iii) toxicity by low expression of both mutants
most likely reflects the pathogenetic mechanism of FAD.
