Abstract

Calcium-binding S100A8 and S100A9 proteins play a significant role in various disorders due to their pro-inflammatory functions. Substantially, they are also relevant in neurodegenerative disorders via the delivery of signals for the immune response. However, at the same time, they can aggregate and accelerate the progression of diseases. Natively, S100A8 and S100A9 exist as homo- and heterodimers, but upon aggregation, they form amyloid-like oligomers, fibrils, or amorphous aggregates. In this study, we aimed to elucidate the aggregation propensities of S100A8, S100A9, and their heterodimer calprotectin by investigating aggregation kinetics, secondary structures, and morphologies of the aggregates. For the first time, we followed the aggregation of S100A8, which formed spherical aggregates, unlike the fibrillar structures of S100A9 under the same conditions. The aggregates were sensitive to amyloid-specific ThT and ThS dyes and had a secondary structure composed of β-sheets. Similarly to S100A9, S100A8 protein was stabilized by calcium ions, resulting in aggregation inhibition. Finally, the formation of S100A8 and S100A9 heterodimers stabilized the proteins in the absence of calcium ions and prevented their aggregation.

摘要

钙结合蛋白 S100A8 和 S100A9 因其促炎功能在各种疾病中发挥着重要作用。它们在神经退行性疾病中也具有相关性,通过传递免疫反应信号。然而,与此同时,它们也可以聚集并加速疾病的进展。S100A8 和 S100A9 天然存在于同源和异源二聚体中,但在聚集时,它们会形成类似淀粉样的寡聚体、纤维或无定形聚集体。在这项研究中,我们旨在通过研究聚集动力学、二级结构和聚集体的形态来阐明 S100A8、S100A9 及其异源二聚体 calprotectin 的聚集倾向。我们首次跟踪了 S100A8 的聚集,其形成了球形聚集体,与相同条件下 S100A9 的纤维状结构不同。聚集体对淀粉样蛋白特异性 ThT 和 ThS 染料敏感,具有由β-折叠组成的二级结构。与 S100A9 类似,S100A8 蛋白被钙离子稳定,导致聚集抑制。最后,S100A8 和 S100A9 异源二聚体的形成稳定了蛋白质在没有钙离子的情况下,并防止了它们的聚集。
