PG - 113432 LID - S0014-4886(20)30263-6 [pii] LID - 10.1016/j.expneurol.2020.113432 [doi] AB - TSC1 or TSC2 mutations cause Tuberous Sclerosis Complex (TSC), and lead to mechanistic target of rapamycin (mTOR) hyperactivation evidenced by hyperphosphorylation of ribosomal S6 protein and 4-elongation factor binding protein 1 (4E-BP1). Amino acid (AA) levels modulate mTOR-dependent S6 and 4E-BP1 phosphorylation in non-neural cells, but this has not been comprehensively investigated in neurons. The effects of AA levels on mTOR signaling and S6 and 4E-BP1 phosphorylation were analyzed in Tsc2 and Depdc5 (a distinct mTOR regulatory gene associated with epilepsy) CRISPR-edited Neuro2a (N2a) cells and differentiated neurons. Tsc2 or Depdc5 knockout (KO) led to S6 and 4E-BP1 hyperphosphorylation and cell soma enlargement, but while Tsc2 KO N2a cells exhibited reduced S6 phosphorylation (Ser240/244) and cell soma size after incubation in AA free (AAF) media, Depdc5 KO cells did not. Using a CFP/YFP FRET-biosensor coupled to 4E-BP1, we assayed 4E-BP1 phosphorylation in living N2a cells and differentiated neurons following Tsc2 or Depdc5 KO. AAF conditions reduced 4E-BP1 phosphorylation in Tsc2 KO N2a cells but had no effect in Depdc5 KO cells. Rapamycin blocked S6 protein phosphorylation but had no effect on 4E-BP1 phosphorylation, following either Tsc2 or Depdc5 KO. Confocal imaging demonstrated that AAF media promoted movement of mTOR off the lysosome, functionally inactivating mTOR, in Tsc2 KO but not Depdc5 KO cells, demonstrating that AA levels modulate lysosomal mTOR localization and account, in part, for differential effects of AAF conditions following Tsc2 versus Depdc5 KO. AA levels and rapamycin differentially modulate S6 and 4E-BP1 phosphorylation and mTOR lysosomal localization in neurons following Tsc2 KO versus Depdc5 KO. Neuronal mTOR signaling in mTOR-associated epilepsies may have distinct responses to mTOR inhibitors and to levels of cellular amino acids. CI - Copyright (c) 2020 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
