Novel Role of Pin1-Cis P-Tau-ApoE Axis in the Pathogenesis of Preeclampsia and Its Connection with Dementia

Preeclampsia (preE) is a severe multisystem hypertensive syndrome of pregnancy associated with ischemia/hypoxia, angiogenic imbalance, apolipoprotein E (ApoE)-mediated dyslipidemia, placental insufficiency, and inflammation at the maternal–fetal interface. Our recent data further suggest that preE i...

description Preeclampsia (preE) is a severe multisystem hypertensive syndrome of pregnancy associated with ischemia/hypoxia, angiogenic imbalance, apolipoprotein E (ApoE)-mediated dyslipidemia, placental insufficiency, and inflammation at the maternal–fetal interface. Our recent data further suggest that preE is associated with impaired autophagy, vascular dysfunction, and proteinopathy/tauopathy disorder, similar to neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer’s disease (AD), including the presence of the cis stereo-isoform of phosphorylated tau (cis P-tau), amyloid-β, and transthyretin in the placenta and circulation. This review provides an overview of the factors that may lead to the induction and accumulation of cis P-tau-like proteins by focusing on the inactivation of peptidyl-prolyl cis–trans isomerase (Pin1) that catalyzes the cis to trans isomerization of P-tau. We also highlighted the novel role of the Pin1-cis P-tau-ApoE axis in the development of preE, and propagation of cis P-tau-mediated abnormal protein aggregation (tauopathy) from the placenta to cerebral tissues later in life, leading to neurodegenerative conditions. In the case of preE, proteinopathy/tauopathy may interrupt trophoblast differentiation and induce cell death, similar to the events occurring in neurons. These events may eventually damage the endothelium and cause systemic features of disorders such as preE. Despite impressive research and therapeutic advances in both fields of preE and neurodegenerative diseases, further investigation of Pin1-cis P-tau and ApoE-related mechanistic underpinnings may unravel novel therapeutic options, and new transcriptional and proteomic markers. This review will also cover genetic polymorphisms in the ApoE alleles leading to dyslipidemia induction that may regulate the pathways causing preE or dementia-like features in the reproductive age or later in life, respectively.
