OXIDATIVE STRESS ALZHEIMER'S DISEASE AMYLOID BETA COPPER CARBON MONOXYDE TMPA |
Résumé : |
"Dementia is affecting about 50 million persons worldwide with Alzheimer's Disease (AD) being the most spread one. AD is a neurodegenerative disorder affecting the elderly. High oxidative damages of the brain associated with an abnormally high extracellular level of amyloid-beta peptide (Abeta) leading to its aggregation in senile plaques are typical features of AD. Bio-metal ions such as copper (Cu) are found in high amount in amyloid plaques. Cu was shown to bind Abeta and the resulting complex has the ability to catalyze reactive oxygen species (ROS) production in presence of dioxygen (O2) and a reductant such as ascorbate by cycling between the +I and +II oxidation states. However, the exact catalytic mechanism remains misunderstood. The two coordination spheres of Cu-Abeta (in +I and +II oxidation states) are strongly different, precluding direct electron transfer process. Electrochemical studies revealed that the redox cycling goes through an ''in-between-state'' (IBS) that would be the redox active species and be in equilibrium with the two spectroscopically characterized resting states. The elusive feature of the IBS makes it highly challenging to identify and study. The objective of my thesis was to gain new insights into the IBS reactivity with O2. To overcome its elusive character, carbon monoxide (CO) was used as a redox inactive surrogate of O2 to accumulate CO-bound Cu(I)Abeta intermediates. The well-known tripodal Cu-TMPA (TMPA = tris(2-pyridylmethyl)amine) complex has been used as a reference compound with respect of CO and O2 binding and reactivity. Then truncated Abeta peptides were chosen to identify the minimal binding site of Cu in the IBS in presence of CO and O2. The study of Cu(II)TMPA complexes in solid-state by X-ray crystallography and in solution by UV-vis and EPR spectroscopies, and cyclic voltammetry, revealed the diversity of ligands occupying the fifth Cu(II) position while the distorted trigonal bipyramid geometry is kept. In aqueous solution Cu(II)TMPA has an aqua ligand in fifth position, which remains bound with 10 % of CH3CN as co-solvent. The conditions needed to further study the reactivity of Cu(I)L (L= TMPA or Abeta models) toward CO are in HEPES buffer, pH 7.4 with 10 % CH3CN to increase CO solubility. Hence it was checked that 10 % CH3CN doesn't participate in Cu(II)Abeta models coordination spheres by UV-vis and EPR studies. Then reactivity of Cu(I)L toward CO was studied by 1H NMR, UV-vis, cyclic voltammetry and FT-IR. CO was shown to bind Cu(I)TMPA by all spectroscopic or electrochemical techniques. For Cu(I)Abeta models, CO was shown to bind Cu(I) complexes by 1H NMR and cyclic voltammetry. However the other techniques give less clear-cut signatures of CO binding probably due to the higher flexibility of the peptide ligand inducing a diversity of Cu coordination sites. Finally, the reactivity of Cu(I)L toward O2 was investigated by cyclic voltammetry and their ability to produce ROS was measured by ascorbate consumption experiments. Two out of the three Cu-Abeta complexes were fast consuming ascorbate in HEPES pH 7.4. The last one was shown to partially stop the ROS production while Cu-TMPA has a moderate rate of ascorbate consumption. In contrast, the electro-catalysis of O2 reduction was only clearly observed for Cu-TMPA. Together with the structural insights gained into the Cu(II) species and the Cu(I)-CO adducts, this points out to ligand-dependent mechanism of O2 reduction. The ''IBS state'' mechanism is observed for the peptides only but its contribution (and thus the level of ROS produced) depends strongly on the sequence of the peptide." |
