bstract
The transcription factor nuclear factor �B (NF-�B) is widely expressed in the nervous system and increased NF-�B immunoreactivity has beenbserved in Alzheimer’s disease (AD) brains in the nuclei of neurons within the vicinity of diffuse �-amyloid plaques. �-Amyloid (A�) peptidesre the main constituent of senile plaques and are known to stimulate NF-�B activity. In the present study, we investigated the effect of variousF-�B inhibitors on the production of A�1–40, A�1–42, secreted APP (sAPP� and sAPP�) and APP C-terminal fragments (APP-CTF) using CHO
ells overexpressing the �-amyloid precursor protein (APP). Our data show that NF-�B inhibitors decrease both A�1–40 and A�1–42 production.
D P
Rn addition, we show that some NF-�B inhibitors decrease sAPP� and APP-CTF� suggesting that they reduce the �-secretase cleavage of APP.ltogether our data suggest that NF-�B inhibitors may be of therapeutic importance for the treatment of AD pathology not only by blocking
nflammatory processes but also by directly inhibiting the production of A� peptides.2006 Published by Elsevier Ireland Ltd.

he brains of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) patients are character-zed by the accumulation of a 38–43-amino acids peptide termedmyloid �-peptide or A� [16]. This peptide is the major com-onent of senile plaques found in AD and is proposed as a keylayer in the pathobiology of AD since all familial forms of theisease are associated with an increased A� accumulation. A�s a proteolytic fragment of the large amyloid precursor pro-ein (APP) [6]. It is cleaved by �-secretase generating secretedPP� (sAPP�) and the carboxyl terminal intracellular fragment
APP-CTF�) which is further cleaved by �-secretase to produce� peptides [17], whereas the �-secretase cleavage of APP takeslace within the A� sequence precluding A� production, leadingo the secretion of sAPP� and the accumulation of membrane-oupled APP CTF-�. The �-secretase cleavage is not precise andeads to the production of a series of A� peptides of 38–43 aminocids. A�1–42 is more fibrillogenic than shorter A� peptides buthigher proportion of A� is produced as A�1–40 compared to

causative role in the etiology of AD and therapies particularlyargeting A�1–42 are expected to have the greatest impact on-amyloid pathology.
The transcription factor NF-�B is widely expressed in theervous system and particularly in synaptic terminals. In non-timulated cells, NF-�B is sequestered in the cytoplasm bynhibitory units called I�B proteins. Stimulation of cells by var-ous inducers causes I�B phosphorylation and its subsequentegradation by the proteasome [21]. Liberated NF-�B is trans-orted in the nucleus, where it induces transcription of targetenes, including I�B as an autoregulatory loop [21].
Studies of postmortem brain tissue from patients with ADave revealed increased NF-�B immunoreactivity in neuronsnd astrocytes in the immediate vicinity of �-amyloid plaques7,19]. Many genes newly induced in AD are under immediate-arly transcriptional control of NF-�B [11] also suggesting thatF-�B pathway is activated in AD brains. Other studies have
hown that A� peptides can activate NF-�B in primary neu-ons and astrocytes [2] suggesting a molecular mechanism byhich A� may act during AD pathogenesis. Recently, it has been

o effect on either A� peptides or NF-�B [18] suggesting thatF-�B activation blockade could reduce the amyloid pathology
n Tg2576 mice. Since A� itself is known to induce NF-�B,he reduced NF-�B activity observed in Tg2576 mice treatedith indomethacin could alternatively be secondary to the reduc-
ion of A� accumulation observed. We therefore investigated theffect of various NF-�B inhibitors on the production of A� pep-ides using Chinese Hamster Ovary cells stably transfected withildtype APP 751 (7W CHO), overproducing human A�. The
ffect of NF-�B inhibitors was also tested on the accumulationf APP C-terminal fragments (APP-CTF) in order to determinehether NF-�B inhibitors could impact �-secretase activity.dditionally, we investigated the effect of NF-�B inhibitors on
he secretion of sAPP� and sAPP� to determine a possible effectf NF-�B inhibitors on �-secretase or �-secretase activities.
For this study, we tested the effect of different NF-�Bnhibitors (NF-�B SN50, parthenolide, hypoestoxide, cap-aicin, andrographolide, Caffeic Acid Phenethyl Ester (CAPE),rtemisinin, celastrol, 6-amino-4-(4-phenoxyphenyl-ethyl-mino)quinazoline (quinazoline), isohelenin, kamebakaurin)n the production of A�1–40 and A�1–42 peptides by CHO cellsverexpressing APP. NF-�B SN50 is a selective, cell permeableF-�B inhibitor peptide which contains the nuclear localization
equence (NLS) of the transcription factor NF-�B p50 linkedo the hydrophobic region (h-region) of the signal peptidef Kaposi fibroblast growth factor (K-FGF). The N-terminal-FGF h-region confers cell-permeability, while the NLS
nhibits translocation of the NF-�B active complex into theucleus [14]. Parthenolide and isohelenin are two sequiterponeactone known to block NF-�B activation [3]. Andrographolides a bicyclic diterpenoid lactone, which inhibits NF-�B bindingo DNA [8]. CAPE is an active component of propolis from hon-ybee hives that prevents the translocation of the p65 subunit ofF-�B to the nucleus [15]. Artemisinin (a potent anti-malarial
esquiterpene) and celastrol (sesquiterpene ester) have beenhown to block NF-�B activation [1,10]. Kamebakaurin is aaurane diterpene, which prevents the DNA binding activity ofctivated NF-�B but does not block its nuclear translocation13]. Quinazoline is a low molecular weight inhibitor of NF-�Branscriptional activation [20].
Briefly, 7W CHO cells were maintained in DMEMATCC, Manassas, VA, USA) supplemented with 10% fetalovine serum (Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA, USA), 1× Peni-illin–Streptomycin Fungizone mixture (Cambrex, Rockland,E, USA) and 0.3% Geneticin (Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA,SA). Cells were plated on 96 well-culture plates at a den-
ity of 5 × 104 cells per well in 200 �L of culture medium.ll the inhibitors used in this study were purchased from EMDiosciences Inc. (San Diego, CA, USA). The concentration of
nhibitors used to achieve NF-�B inhibition were chosen accord-ng to referenced publications. For each inhibitor, experimentsere performed in quadruplicate and A�1–40 and A�1–42 lev-
ls were evaluated following 18 h of incubation using ELISA

its (Invitrogen Biosource Inc., Carlsbad, CA, USA) accordingo the recommendations of the manufacturer. For the measure-
ent of A�1–40, samples were diluted 20-fold with the sampleiluent provided in the kits whereas for A�1–42 determination,

amples were diluted only two-fold. Results were expressed ashe percentage of A�1–40 or A�1–42 measured in control sam-les. No direct toxicity (monitored by lactate-dehydrogenaseelease in the culture medium) was observed for the doses ofF-�B inhibitors tested (data not shown). Interestingly, the dif-
erent NF-�B inhibitors tested appear to diminish A� productionith different potency and show a differential effect towards�1–40 and A�1–42 production (Fig. 1A). For instance, NF-B SN50 at 20 �M inhibits A�1–42 (∼40% inhibition) moreotently than A�1–40 (∼9%). Similarly, hypoestoxide displaysore potency towards A�1–42 than A�1–40 inhibition. Quina-
oline, artemisinin (at 1 �M) and isohelenin (at 5 �M) inhibit�1–40 secretion more potently than A�1–42 whereas the other
ompounds tested display analogous effects on A�1–40 and�1–42 production.NF-�B activation can be blocked indirectly by inhibiting I
appa B kinase (IKK-2). We therefore tested a cell-permeablereidocarboxamido thiophene compound that acts as a potentnhibitor of IKK-2 ([5-(p-Fluorophenyl)-2-ureido]thiophene-3-arboxamide or IKK-2 inhibitor IV). IKK-2 inhibitor IV alsoppears to significantly inhibit both A�1–40 and A�1–42 produc-ion (Fig. 1A). These data support the concept that the secretionnd/or production of A�1–40 and A�1–42 is NF-�B dependent.
In order to verify that NF-�B inhibitors were impacting theecretion of A�, we measured the intracellular level of A�1–40.riefly, 7W CHO were treated with different NF-�B inhibitors
Fig. 1B). Following 18 h of incubation, cells were washedith PBS and lyzed with 100 �L of ice-cold M-PER® Reagent
Pierce, IL, USA) containing 1 mM phenylmethanesulfonyl flu-ride and 1 mM sodium orthovanadate. Cellular lysates wereiluted five-fold with the standard diluent provided in the A�1–40LISA kit (Biosource, CA) before intracellular A�1–40 quan-
ification. Data show that intracellular A�1–40 represent onlysmall fraction of the A�1–40 produced by the cells (approx-
mately 1.5% of the amount of A�1–40 secreted in the cultureedium). Interestingly, among the NF-�B inhibitors tested, onlyAPE, celastrol and kamebakaurin were able to significantly
ower intracellular A�1–40, but no intracellular accumulation of� was observed with any of the compounds suggesting that the
ecretion of A� is not impacted by NF-�B inhibition (Fig. 1B).In order to verify that NF-�B inhibition was achieved, we
easured the production of prostaglandin E2 (PGE2), a mainroduct of cyclooxygenase-2 (whose expression is regulated byF-�B) employing the same culture paradigm used to measure� production. This was necessarily an indirect way of assessingF-�B inhibition as the inhibitors are purported to achieve their
ffects by different mechanisms (some inhibit nuclear translo-ation of NF-�B, while others inhibit its binding to DNA).e analyzed conditioned cell culture media for PGE2 (a mainetabolite of cyclooxygenase-2, expression of which is NF-�B

Neuroinflammation is a prominenteature of AD pathology and NF-�B blockade is also expected toe beneficial by decreasing astrogliosis and microgliosis in addi-ion to reducing A� accumulation as outlined in this manuscript.owever, NF-�B influences the expression of a complex array ofenes in the nervous system and the consequences of a chronicown regulation of the NF-�B pathway are not well established.t is therefore premature to consider NF-�B as a viable thera-eutic target for AD. Further work will be required to determinehether NF-�B inhibitors can lower A� levels and improve cog-ition in transgenic animal models of AD and whether they cane safely used in humans.
