Cell-to-cell propagation of ¥á-synuclein is thought to be the underlying mechanism of Parkinson¡¯s disease progression. Recent evidence suggests that inflammation plays an important role in the propagation of protein aggregates. However, the mechanism by which inflammation regulates the propagation of aggregates remains unknown. Here, using in vitro cultures, we found that soluble factors secreted from activated microglia promote cell-to-cell propagation of ¥á-synuclein and further showed that among these soluble factors, TNF-¥á had the most robust stimulatory activity. Treatment of neurons with TNF-¥á triggered cellular senescence, as shown by transcriptomic analyses demonstrating induction of senescence-associated genes and immunoanalysis of senescence phenotype marker proteins. Interestingly, secretion of ¥á-synuclein was increased in senescent neurons, reflecting acquisition of a senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP). Using vacuolin-1, an inhibitor of lysosomal exocytosis, and RNAi against rab27a, we demonstrated that the SASP was mediated by lysosomal exocytosis. Correlative light and electron microscopy and immunoelectron microscopy confirmed that propagating ¥á-synuclein aggregates were present in electron-dense lysosome-like compartments. TNF-¥á promoted the SASP through stimulation of lysosomal exocytosis, thereby increasing the secretion of ¥á-synuclein. Collectively, these results suggest that TNF-¥á is the major inflammatory factor that drives cell-to-cell propagation of ¥á-synuclein by promoting the SASP and subsequent secretion of ¥á-synuclein.
