Description

Description générale

The SHSY-5Y Tet-ON inducible α-synuclein neuroblastoma cell line serves as a model for both dopaminergic neuronal biology and α-synuclein pathology. SHSY-5Y cells may be induced upon treatment with retinoic acid to differentiate into neuronal-type cells, enabling studies of neuronal function and differentiation.4 SHSY-5Y cells secrete catecholamines and thus serve as a model for dopaminergic neurons. The SHSY-5Y TetON α-synuclein inducible cell line harbors an α-synuclein construct inducible by treatment with doxycycline, thus allowing controlled overexpression of α-synuclein before or after neuronal differentiation.5 The construct also includes a tet repressor, which prevents leaky expression in absence of inducer. This unique cell line is an excellent model for both the basic cellular physiology of Parkinson′s disease and therapeutic development.

Application

Parkinson′s disease, the most common neurodegenerative movement disorder1, is caused by the progressive degeneration of dopaminergic neurons. A signature pathology of the brains of Parkinson′s patients is the buildup of misfolded aggregates of the protein α-synuclein.2 Aggregates of α-synuclein are also implicated in Lewy body dementia and Alzheimer′s disease.3 Although study of the complete pathogenesis of neurodegenerative diseases such as Parkinson′s requires animal models, cellular models that reflect distinct aspects of Parkinson′s pathology are of great value for understanding the multifaceted character of neurodegenerative diseases and useful for developing targeted treatments.The SHSY-5Y Tet-ON inducible α-synuclein neuroblastoma cell line serves as a model for both dopaminergic neuronal biology and α-synuclein pathology.
