This research project aims to investigate the synaptosome signaling network involved in the progression of Parkinson's disease and its impact on learning and memory. The study will utilize proteomics and phosphoproteomics analysis to elucidate the dysregulation of synaptic function and identify potential therapeutic targets. Animal models will be utilized to validate the findings. The outcome of this research will contribute to a better understanding of the disease and aid in developing novel treatment strategies.

Introduction • Parkinson’s disease is a widely prevalent progressive neurodegenerative disease of the elderly • The most prescribed medicine for management of PD is Levodopa, a dopamine precursor and other medications include dopamine agonists (Pramipexole and Ropinirole) and Monoamine Oxidase-B type (MAO-B) inhibitors (Selegiline and Rasagiline) • The neurotransmitter dopamine is very closely related to learning and motivation, which is why there is a progressive loss of both in PD. This link was well established when human subjects with PD failed to show improvement in learning and motivation
Synaptosome • A synaptosome is derived from synaptic terminals, isolated from the rest of the neuronal cell body • It contains the pre- and post- synaptic terminal, the synaptosomal mitochondria, synaptic vesicles, and postsynaptic density Fig. 2 Electronmicrograph of Synaptosome Fig. 1 Representation of Synaptosome https://www.thermofisher.com/content/dam/LifeTech/Images/integration/A12n03-Fig1-87793-Syn-PER.jpg FengjuBaiand Frank A.

Research statusSynaptosomes in diseases • Synaptic dysfunction in a number of neurological diseases including Alzheimer’s disease (AD), Parkinson’s disease and Schizophrenia (Jhou, 2017) • A number of studies on synaptosomes has concentrated on AD than any other neurological disorder • proteins like tau, amyloid-β precursor has been reported in the synaptosome(Tai, 2012; Fein, 2008) • Proteomic profiling of the synaptosomes and the post-synaptic density has been carried out to reveal the synaptosomal networks in mice model of schizophrenia (20)
Lacunae • No study on global proteomic and phosphoproteomic study on PD • Synaptosomal mitochondrial dysregulation has been observed in learning and memory • The synaptosome proteomic profiling in the progression of Parkinson’s disease, with respect to learning and memory has not been elucidated
Hypothesis The synaptosomal signaling involved in learning and memory, are dysregulated during the progression of Parkinson’s disease
Proposed Aim To delineate the synaptosome signaling network of learning and memory in the progression of Parkinson’s disease
Proposed Objectives • To establish the PD rat model using MPTP and assess their learning and memory functions • To isolate the synaptosomes from the rat brain from striatum, SNpc and hippocampus • To carry out mass spectrometry based proteomics and phophoproteomics analysis • To validatethesynaptosome network using Co-IP • To develop a synaptosome network for Parkinson’s disease and normal rat
Ethical issues • Animal studies will be carried out to understand the synaptosomal signaling • Institutional Animal Ethics Committee approval will be soughted
Proposed Methodology • Wistar Rats- MPTP model of PD (mitochondrial dysregulation model) • Assessment of learning and memory (novel objects, Barnes maze) • Synaptosome isolation from substantianigra, striatum, hippocampus, amgdala • Sample preparation for global proteomics and phosphopeptide enrichment • LC-MS/MS analysis (liquid chromatography- mass spectrometery) • Bioinformatics based network analysis • Validation of protein interactions using Co-IP based MS analysis and western blotting
Expected outcome • Protein interaction networks, involved in learning and memory of PD • Alterations in the protein interactome of PD and control cases
Benefits of the research proposal • The research outcome from the project will enable us to understand the dynamics involved in the synaptosomal vesicle formation and the alterations in the mechanism, in case of Parkinsonism • The understanding of the synaptosomal network in animal model can thus be extrapolated to delineate the pathways in human and thereby identification of novel targets that can be manipulated for progressive outcomes in the management of the disease
