Oxidative stress is thought to be involved in the mechanism of
nerve cell death in Parkinson's disease (PD). Among several toxic
oxidative species, nitric oxide (NO) has been proposed as a key element
on the basis of the increased density of glial cells expressing
inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) in the substantia nigra (SN) of
patients with PD. However, the mechanism of iNOS induction in the CNS
is poorly understood, especially under pathological conditions. Because
cytokines and Fc RII/CD23 antigen have been implicated in the
induction of iNOS in the immune system, we investigated their role in
glial cells in vitro and in the SN of patients with PD
and matched control subjects. We show that, in vitro,
interferon- (IFN- ) together with interleukin-1 (Il-1 ) and
tumor necrosis factor- (TNF- ) can induce the expression of CD23
in glial cells. Ligation of CD23 with specific antibodies resulted in
the induction of iNOS and the subsequent release of NO. The activation
of CD23 also led to an upregulation of TNF- production, which was
dependent on NO release. In the SN of PD patients, a significant
increase in the density of glial cells expressing TNF- , Il-1 , and
IFN- was observed. Furthermore, although CD23 was not detectable in the SN of control subjects, it was found in both astroglial and microglial cells in parkinsonian patients. Altogether, these data demonstrate the existence of a cytokine/CD23-dependent activation pathway of iNOS and of proinflammatory mediators in glial cells and
their involvement in the pathophysiology of PD.
