内容記述 |
Niemann-Pick disease (NP) is a group of lipid storage disorders that includes three types of diseases. While NP type A (NP-A) and NP type B (NP-B) are caused by a lysosomal acid sphingomyelinase (ASM) deficiency, NP type C (NP-C) is a neurovisceral disorder caused by a deficiency of either the NPC1 or NPC2 protein. This deficiency causes impaired intracellular lipid trafficking, leading to the abundant accumulation of free cholesterol in the lysosome. Thus, NP-C is diagnosed through a filipin test that microscopically detects intracellular free cholesterol in fibroblasts. However, the filipin test was reported to give a positive result even for NP-A and NP-B. Recently, some cholesterol-reducing agents have been reported to be useful candidate for NP-C therapies to reduce accumulated free cholesterol level. In this study, three cholesterol-reducing agents, methyl-β-cyclodextrin, histone deacetylase inhibitors, and thapsigargin, were tested to determine their efficacy in reducing the accumulated free cholesterol level in NP-A and NP-B fibroblasts and drug-induced, ASM-deficient fibroblasts. The results showed that the three agents did not decrease the accumulated free cholesterol level in these cells, showing that ASM is essential for the cholesterol-reducing agents to be effective. This study also suggests that the accumulated free cholesterol of ASM deficient fibroblasts may be originally different from that of NP-C cells. |
