The Proton-Pump Inhibitor Lansoprazole Enhances Amyloid Beta Production
نویسندگان
چکیده
A key event in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the accumulation of amyloid-β (Aβ) species in the brain, derived from the sequential cleavage of the amyloid precursor protein (APP) by β- and γ-secretases. Based on a systems biology study to repurpose drugs for AD, we explore the effect of lansoprazole, and other proton-pump inhibitors (PPIs), on Aβ production in AD cellular and animal models. We found that lansoprazole enhances Aβ37, Aβ40 and Aβ42 production and lowers Aβ38 levels on amyloid cell models. Interestingly, acute lansoprazole treatment in wild type and AD transgenic mice promoted higher Aβ40 levels in brain, indicating that lansoprazole may also exacerbate Aβ production in vivo. Overall, our data presents for the first time that PPIs can affect amyloid metabolism, both in vitro and in vivo.

Bactericidal activity and synergy studies of proton pump inhibitors and antibiotics against Helicobacter pylori in vitro.
The bactericidal activity of the proton pump inhibitors omeprazole and lansoprazole alone and in combination with a beta-lactam or macrolide antibiotic were investigated in vitro. Time-kill curves against Helicobacter pylori NCTC 11637 and a recent clinical isolate revealed significant concentration-dependent killing with all drugs other than amoxycillin. Combinations of proton pump inhibitor a...

The transcription factor, runt-related transcription factor 2 (Runx2), plays a pivotal role in the differentiation of the mesenchymal stem cells to the osteochondroblast lineages. We found by the drug repositioning strategy that a proton pump inhibitor, lansoprazole, enhances nuclear accumulation of Runx2 and induces osteoblastogenesis of human mesenchymal stromal cells. Systemic administration...
متن کاملOxygen concentration influences proton pump inhibitor activity against Helicobacter pylori in vitro.
Omeprazole and lansoprazole are proton pump inhibitors that have shown activity against Helicobacter pylori and other Helicobacter species when tested by agar dilution. Lansoprazole was more active against H. pylori than was omeprazole, and the activity was independent of urease production. Disk susceptibility tests and agar dilution MIC determinations were performed to investigate the effects ...

Pathogenic bacterial components play critical roles in initiation of gastrointestinal inflammation via activation of intracellular signaling pathways which induce proinflammatory cytokines such as tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha and interleukin (IL)-1beta. Lansoprazole (LANSO), a proton pump inhibitor, has been widely used for the treatment of peptic ulcers and reflux esophagitis due to its p...
متن کاملMasking of 13C urea breath test by proton pump inhibitors is dependent on type of medication: comparison between omeprazole, pantoprazole, lansoprazole and esomeprazole.
BACKGROUND The need to withhold acid suppression therapy while awaiting urea breath test results is a common clinical problem in symptomatic patients. It is unclear at present if the dose or type of proton pump inhibitor or the type of test meal govern the apparent masking effect of proton pump inhibitors on the urea breath test. AIM To prospectively evaluate Helicobacter pylori detection rat...
