PG - 25-33 LID - S0006-291X(22)01761-2 [pii] LID - 10.1016/j.bbrc.2022.12.082 [doi] AB - Parkinson's disease (PD) is a neurodegenerative disorder characterized by the progressive accumulation of alpha-synuclein aggregates in form of Lewy bodies. Genome-wide association studies have revealed that human leukocyte antigen (HLA) class II is a PD-associated gene, although the mechanisms linking HLA class II and PD remain elusive. Here, we identified a novel function of HLA class II in the transport of intracellular alpha-synuclein to the outside of cells. HLA class II molecules and alpha-synuclein formed complexes and moved to the cell surface at various degrees among HLA-DR alleles. HLA-DR with a DRB5 *01:01 allele, a putative PD-risk allele, substantially translocated normal and conformationally abnormal alpha-synuclein to the cell surface and extracellular vesicles. alpha-Synuclein/HLA class II complexes were found in A2058 melanoma cells, which express intrinsic alpha-synuclein and HLA-DR with DRB5 *01:01. Our findings will expand our knowledge of unconventional HLA class II function from autoimmune diseases to neurodegenerative disorders, shedding light on the association between the GWAS-prioritized PD-risk gene HLA-DR and alpha-synuclein.
