AB  - Background: Recent literature data highlights metabolic changes in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). To explore possible early metabolic changes, we aimed to analyse the fatty acids (FA) composition of erythrocytes in newly diagnosed als patients and to see whether fatty acid levels correlate with the ALSFRS-R score or disease duration. Methods: The severity of motor function involvement was assessed by the ALSFRS-R scale at the initial evaluation. The fatty acid profile of erythrocyte membranes was analysed by gas-liquid chromatography. The study comprised 26 clinically diagnosed als patients, with mean ALSFRS-R 38±8. The control group included 26 healthy volunteers. Results: Significantly higher levels of palmitic acid and total saturated FAs were detected in als patients. In als patients, total monounsaturated FA, palmitoleic, vaccenic, and oleic acid were also significantly increased. The levels of eicosapentaenoic acid, docosapentaenoic acid, total polyunsaturated FA (PUFA) and n-6 PUFA were significantly lower in als patients. Additionally, a-linolenic acid, the precursor of the n-3 PUFA family, was not detected in als patients. We found no significant correlation between the ALSFRS-R score and the abundance of individual FAs analysed. A moderate negative correlation was found between disease duration and DHA level, and a positive correlation was detected with MUFA. Conclusion: Experimental evidence presented may contribute to shaping a beneficial nutritional intervention.

AB  - Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a fatal neurodegenerative disease, affecting motor neurons, which is characterized by the progressive loss of motor function. Sufficient evidence has been gathered, either in the form of experimental results from animal disease models or from the assessment of affected human subjects, which implicates metabolic changes in the course of ALS. Hypermetabolism, abnormal glucose tolerance and dyslipidaemia were reported to have high incidence in ALS patients. In fact, according to published studies, BMI is significantly and inversely associated with ALS progression. Here, we discuss basic principles of fatty acid metabolism, composition and the existing knowledge of metabolic and fatty acid composition changes in ALS patients. Literature data suggest that ALS patients have unfavorable changes in the fatty acid profile, especially because of the low level of long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids. Nutritional interventions and supplementation with various foods or food supplements are currently not showing conclusive results, implying there is more to learn about potential ways to modify this illness.

AB  - Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a neurodegenerative disorder with a very fast progression, no diagnostic tool for the presymptomatic phase, and still no effective treatment of the disease. Although ALS affects motor neurons, the overall pathophysiological condition points out to the non-cell autonomous mechanisms, where astrocytes and microglia play crucial roles in the disease progression. We have already shown that IgG from sera of ALS patients (ALS IgG) induce calcium transients and an increase in the mobility of acidic vesicles in cultured rat astrocytes. Having in mind the role of microglia in neurodegeneration, and a well-documented fact that oxidative stress is one of the many components contributing to the disease, we decided to examine the effect of ALS IgG on activation, oxidative stress and antioxidative system of BV-2 microglia, and to evaluate their acute effect on cytosolic peroxide, pH, and on reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation. All tested ALS IgGs (compared to control IgG) induced oxidative stress (rise in nitric oxide and the index of lipid peroxidation) followed by release of TNF-alpha and higher antioxidative defense (elevation of Mn- and CuZn-superoxide dismutase, catalase, and glutathione reductase with a decrease of glutathione peroxidase and glutathione) after 24 h treatment. Both ALS IgG and control IgG showed same localization on the membrane of BV-2 cells following 24 h treatment. Cytosolic peroxide and pH alteration were evaluated with fluorescent probes HyPer and SypHer, respectively, having in mind that HyPer also reacts to pH changes. Out of 11 tested IgGs from ALS patients, 4 induced slow exponential rise of HyPer signal, with maximal normalized fluorescence in the range 0.2-0.5, also inducing similar increase of SypHer intensity, but of a lower amplitude. None of the control IgGs induced changes with neither of the indicators. Acute ROS generation was detected in one out of three tested ALS samples with carboxy-H2DCFDA. The observed phenomena demonstrate the potential role of inflammatory humoral factors, IgGs, as potential triggers of the activation in microglia, known to occur in later stages of ALS. Therefore, revealing the ALS IgG signaling cascade in microglial cells could offer a valuable molecular biomarker and/or a potential therapeutic target.

AB  - Astrocytes are considered essential in the etiopathogenesis of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). We have demonstrated previously that immunoglobulins G (IgG) isolated from patients with ALS enhance the mobility of acidic vesicles in cultured astrocytes in a Ca2+-dependent manner. Here we directly examined the impact of purified sporadic ALS IgG on cytosolic [Ca2+] ([Ca2+](i)) in astrocytes. Confocal time-lapse images were acquired and fluorescence of a non-ratiometric Ca2+ indicator was recorded before and after the application of IgG. ALS IgG (0.1 mg/ml) from 7 patients evoked transient increases in [Ca2+](i) in similar to 50% of tested astrocytes. The probability of observing a response was independent of extracellular Ca2+. The peak increase in [Ca2+](i) developed similar to 3 times faster and the time integral of evoked transients was similar to 2-fold larger; the peak amplitude itself was not affected by extracellular Ca2+. Application of pharmacological inhibitors revealed that activation of inositol-1,4,5-triphosphate receptors is necessary and sufficient to initiate transients in [Ca2+](i) the Ca2+ influx through store-operated calcium entry prolongs the transient increase in [Ca2+](i). Thus, ALS IgG acutely affect [Ca2+](i) by mobilizing both, intra- and extracellular Ca2+ into the cytosol of cultured astrocytes. (C) 2013 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB  - Aim: We examined the effect of purified immunoglobulins G (IgG) from patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) on the mobility and exocytotic release from Lysotracker-stained vesicles in cultured rat astrocytes. Methods: Time-lapse confocal images were acquired, and vesicle mobility was analysed before and after the application of ALS IgG. The vesicle counts were obtained to assess cargo exocytosis from stained organelles. Results: At rest, when mobility was monitored for 2 min in bath with Ca2+, two vesicle populations were discovered: (1) non-mobile vesicles (6.1%) with total track length (TL)  lt  1 mu m, averaging at 0.33 +/- 0.01 mu m (n = 1305) and (2) mobile vesicles (93.9%) with TL  gt  1 mu m, averaging at 3.03 +/- 0.01 mu m (n = 20 200). ALS IgG (0.1 mg mL(-1)) from 12 of 13 patients increased the TL of mobile vesicles by approx. 24% and maximal displacement (MD) by approx. 26% within 4 min, while the IgG from control group did not alter the vesicle mobility. The mobility enhancement by ALS IgG was reduced in extracellular solution devoid of Ca2+, indicating that ALS IgG vesicle mobility enhancement involves changes in Ca2+ homeostasis. To examine whether enhanced mobility relates to elevated Ca2+ activity, cells were stimulated by 1 mm ATP, a cytosolic Ca2+ increasing agent, in the presence (2 mm) and in the absence of extracellular Ca2+. ATP stimulation triggered an increase in TL by approx. 7% and 12% and a decrease in MD by approx. 11% and 1%, within 4 min respectively. Interestingly, none of the stimuli triggered the release of vesicle cargo. Conclusion: Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis-IgG-enhanced vesicle mobility in astrocytes engages changes in calcium homeostasis.

Methods: Time-lapse confocal images were acquired, and vesicle mobility was analysed before and after the application of ALS IgG. The vesicle counts were obtained to assess cargo exocytosis from stained organelles. Results: At rest, when mobility was monitored for 2 min in bath with Ca2+, two vesicle populations were discovered: (1) non-mobile vesicles (6.1%) with total track length (TL)  lt  1 mu m, averaging at 0.33 +/- 0.01 mu m (n = 1305) and (2) mobile vesicles (93.9%) with TL  gt  1 mu m, averaging at 3.03 +/- 0.01 mu m (n = 20 200). ALS IgG (0.1 mg mL(-1)) from 12 of 13 patients increased the TL of mobile vesicles by approx. 24% and maximal displacement (MD) by approx. 26% within 4 min, while the IgG from control group did not alter the vesicle mobility. The mobility enhancement by ALS IgG was reduced in extracellular solution devoid of Ca2+, indicating that ALS IgG vesicle mobility enhancement involves changes in Ca2+ homeostasis. To examine whether enhanced mobility relates to elevated Ca2+ activity, cells were stimulated by 1 mm ATP, a cytosolic Ca2+ increasing agent, in the presence (2 mm) and in the absence of extracellular Ca2+. ATP stimulation triggered an increase in TL by approx. 7% and 12% and a decrease in MD by approx. 11% and 1%, within 4 min respectively. Interestingly, none of the stimuli triggered the release of vesicle cargo. Conclusion: Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis-IgG-enhanced vesicle mobility in astrocytes engages changes in calcium homeostasis.",
