SKF-10047, a prototype Sigma-1 receptor agonist, augmented the membrane trafficking and uptake activity of the serotonin transporter and its C-terminus-deleted mutant via a Sigma-1 receptor-independent mechanism

The serotonin transporter (SERT) is functionally regulated via membrane trafficking. Our previous studies have demonstrated that the SERT C-terminal deletion mutant (SERTΔCT) showed a robust decrease in its membrane trafficking and was retained in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), suggesting that SERT...

description The serotonin transporter (SERT) is functionally regulated via membrane trafficking. Our previous studies have demonstrated that the SERT C-terminal deletion mutant (SERTΔCT) showed a robust decrease in its membrane trafficking and was retained in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), suggesting that SERTΔCT is an unfolded protein that may cause ER stress. The Sigma-1 receptor (SigR1) has been reported to attenuate ER stress via its chaperone activity. In this study, we investigated the effects of SKF-10047, a prototype SigR1 agonist, on the membrane trafficking and uptake activity of SERT and SERTΔCT expressed in COS-7 cells. Twenty-four hours of SKF-10047 treatment (>200 μM) accelerated SERT membrane trafficking and robustly upregulated SERTΔCT activity. Interestingly, these effects of SKF-10047 on SERT functions were also found in cells in which SigR1 expression was knocked down by shRNA, suggesting that SKF-10047 exerted these effects on SERT via a mechanism independent of SigR1. A cDNA array study identified several candidate genes involved in the mechanism of action of SKF-10047. Among them, Syntaxin3, a member of the SNARE complex, was significantly upregulated by 48 h of SKF-10047 treatment. These results suggest that SKF-10047 is a candidate for ER stress relief.
