Definitions
- the present invention relates to methods of detecting or diagnosing a neurodegenerative disease or condition.
- the aspects of the present invention relate to methods of assaying cerebral spinal fluid of a subject to determine the presence or absence of autoantibodies.
- a continuing problem in the diagnosis of neurodegenerative diseases or conditions such as Alzheimer's has been to devise a reliable biomarker that provides a definitive indication of a physical pathology.
- a neurodegenerative disease is diagnosed based on behavior, signs of cognitive impairment, and various forms of radiological imaging, and a definitive diagnosis is obtained only upon autopsy.
- the cause of neurodegenerative diseases has been a mystery, making it difficult to know what biological factors to look for in terms of early warning signs that a neurodegenerative disease may be present. Post mortem analysis of brain tissue appears to implicate metal ions in neurodegenerative diseases.
- Proteins associated with these diseases bind metals as part of their normal function, but in neurodegenerative diseases, something causes the proteins to not fold around the metals properly, thereby revealing transition metal sites that can participate in oxidation-reduction reactions. This development leads to mild to severe amyloid angiopathy.
- tyrosine nitration is one of the earliest markers found in Alzheimer's disease brains and ALS. (Ischiropoulos, I. & Beckman, JS.
- Such autoantibodies may be detected by treating the blood or other bodily fluid with an oxidizing agent and then using a screening assay to detect antibodies that bind a self antigen. It has been found that such autoantibodies are present in blood or other bodily fluids in a wide variety of isotypes and specificities. It has also been found that autoantibodies can be detected in a purified or fractionated immunoglobulin composition that has been treated with oxidizing conditions.
- masked antibodies or masked autoantibodies having this property are referred to herein as "masked” antibodies or “masked” autoantibodies, and the process of treating blood or other bodily fluids or immunoglobulin preparations with oxidizing conditions is referred to herein as "unmasking" the masked antibodies or autoantibodies.
- Antibodies having the property of becoming masked or unmasked, depending on oxidation- reduction conditions may also be referred to herein as "redox antibodies”.
- Antiphospholipid antibodies aPS, aCL, aPE, aPC, Lupus Anticoagulant (LA)
- Anti-tyrosine phosphatase IA-2
- Anti-nuclear antibodies ANA
- Anti-cell organelles nucleolus, lamin, Golgi, etc.
- Anti-granulocytes neutrophils, monocytes
- Anti-myeloperoxidase Anti-tumor cells lines Raji, Jurkat, U87MG, K562
- TBM Anti-trophoblast and trophoblast basement membranes
- Anti- ⁇ 2-glycoprotein I Anti-RBC (broad reactivity)
- aCL ant ⁇ cardiolipin aPC
- antiphosphatidylcholine aPE antiphosphatidylethanolamine aPS
- antiphosphatidylserine APPT 1 activated partial thromboplastin time dRVVT, dilute Russell's viper venom time
- nitrosylation of tyrosine residues in and around the antibody hypervariable region may be a potential mechanism for antibody masking and unmasking.
- a change in nitration could produce conformational changes in an antibody binding site that result in alteration of the binding specificity of the antibody.
- hemin- treated and untreated samples of IgG were assayed for nitrated tyrosines and it was found that there was significant IgG nitrosylation after hemin exposure. See Mclntyre, J. Autoimmu ⁇ , cited above.
- the autoantibodies in cerebral spinal fluid from normal individuals can be detected in surprisingly large quantities by treating the cerebral spinal fluid sample with oxidizing conditions, such as with an oxidizing agent or the use of electromotive force and then using a screening assay to detect antibodies that bind self antigens.
- oxidizing conditions such as with an oxidizing agent or the use of electromotive force
- screening assay to detect antibodies that bind self antigens.
- Such autoantibodies are not detected above a minimal baseline in the cerebral spinal fluid taken from a normal individual that is not subjected to oxidizing conditions.
- autoantibodies that may be present in cerebral spinal fluid of a normal individual in their masked form do not cause harm to the individual, and may play a yet unknown beneficial role; however, it is apparent that the autoantibodies could cause damage if they were to become unmasked in the cerebral spinal fluid.
- neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's and Parkinson's diseases, and that these diseases could be triggered or aggravated by unmasking of masked autoantibodies in the cerebral spinal fluid.
- metal ions are implicated in neurodegenerative diseases. For example, if transition metal sites are exposed by protein misfolding, such exposed sites could promote oxidation-reduction reactions that lead to unmasking of autoantibodies.
- Unmasked antibodies such as antiphospholipid autoantibodies can interact with phospholipids and phospholipid-binding proteins in brain cells and may therefore cause many of the lesions and shrinkage of the brain that are seen in MRI studies of the Alzheimer patient brains and can cause the physical damage seen in other types of neurodegenerative diseases.
- cerebral spinal fluid of confirmed Alzheimer patients that is treated with an oxidizing agent such as hemin does not show a dramatic increase in the amount of detectable autoantibodies, as compared with untreated cerebral spinal fluids, which indicate that an unmasking process has occurred in a diseased subject, such that the level of masked autoantibodies becomes depleted.
- an oxidizing agent such as hemin or electromotive force.
- Such phosphorylation reactivity either in the cytosol and/or the nucleus can promote gene expression leading to proliferation, transformation, and differentiation or programmed cell death (apoptosis).
- Related phosphorylation pathways, for example, JNK and p38 also would be expected to participate. Apoptosis of neurons as well as interference with memory and motor functions in the brain subsequent to
- ERK1/2 phosphorylation are known responses resulting from activation of this stimulation pathway.
- references to ERK1/2 phosphorylation outcomes are found in: Adams, JP and Sweatt, JD. "Molecular Psychology: Roles for the ERK MAP Kinase Cascade in Memory". Annu. Rev. Pharmacol. Toxicol. 2002; 42:135-63; Hindley, A, and in, Kolch, W. "Extracellular signal regulated kinase (ERK)/mitogen activated protein kinase (MAPK)- independent functions of Raf kinases". J. Cell Science, 2002; 115:1575-81 and in, Cheung, ECC and Slack, RS. "Emerging Role for ERK as a Key Regulator of Neuronal Apoptosis". Science, 2004; 251:1-3).

- the objectives are further achieved by a method of detecting or diagnosing a neurodegenerative disease or condition in a subject by assaying first sample of cerebral spinal fluid from the subject to determine a level of at least one autoantibody of a selected specificity, treating a second sample from the subject with an oxidizing agent and assaying the oxidized second sample to determine a level the at least autoantibody having the selected specificity, and comparing the level of the at least one autoantibody in the first sample with the level of the at least one autoantibody in the oxidized second sample.
- a lack of increase in the level of the at least one anti-phospholipid autoantibody in the oxidized second sample as compared to the level of the at least one antiphospholipid autoantibody in the first sample correlates with a neurodegenerative disease or condition in said subject.
- Figures 1 A and 1 B are graphs showing the level of autoantibodies detected by ELISA, for example, aPS, aCL and aPE, (as measured by optical density, OD), respectively, detected in the cerebral spinal fluid of a normal subject, for an untreated sample (Fig. 1A) and a sample that was exposed to hemin (Fig. 1 B). Results are shown for both
- FIG. 2 is a histogram showing redox-reactive autoantibody ERK1/2 phosphorylation activity. Shown is a hemin buffer control, a hemin treated cerebral spinal fluid and a 1/10 dilution of the same hemi ⁇ -treated cerebral spinal fluid. These data were obtained by using a mouse neuronal model synaptosome assay. Incubation of the cerebral spinal fluid samples for 10 minutes on the synaptosomes was followed by lysing of the cells and probing for phosphorylation activity by Western blots. The degree of phosphorylation illustrated by this histogram would be sufficient to cause apoptosis of neurons.
- Figures 3A and 3B present a comparison of autoantibodies between post mortem cerebral spinal fluids (taken from brain ventricles) of 6 biopsy-confirmed Alzheimer's patients (Fig 3B) and 3 control cerebral spinal fluid samples with no history of a neurodegenerative disease (Fig. 3A).
