Since the first syn discovery in the brain of the electric ray <italic>Torpedo californica</italic>, members of the same family have been identified in all vertebrates and comparative studies have indicated that syn proteins are evolutionary conserved. No counterparts of syns were found in invertebrates suggesting that they are vertebrate-specific proteins. Molecular studies showed that the number of syn members varies among vertebrates. Three genes encode for α-, β- and γ-syn in mammals and birds. However, a variable number of syn genes and encoded proteins is expressed or predicted in fish depending on the species. Among biologically verified sequences, four syn genes were identified in fugu, encoding for α, β and two γ (γ1 and γ2) isoforms, whereas only three genes are expressed in zebrafish, which lacks α-syn gene. The list of “non verified” sequences is much longer and is often found in sequence databases. In this review we provide an overview of published papers and known syn sequences in agnathans and fish that are likely to impact future studies in this field. Indeed, fish models may play a key role in elucidating some of the molecular mechanisms involved in physiological and pathological functions of syn proteins.</p></div></front><back><div1 type="bibliography"><listBibl><biblStruct><analytic><author><name sortKey="Carlson, S S" uniqKey="Carlson S">S.S.

Since the first syn discovery in the brain of the electric ray <italic>Torpedo californica</italic>, members of the same family have been identified in all vertebrates and comparative studies have indicated that syn proteins are evolutionary conserved. No counterparts of syns were found in invertebrates suggesting that they are vertebrate-specific proteins. Molecular studies showed that the number of syn members varies among vertebrates. Three genes encode for α-, β- and γ-syn in mammals and birds. However, a variable number of syn genes and encoded proteins is expressed or predicted in fish depending on the species. Among biologically verified sequences, four syn genes were identified in fugu, encoding for α, β and two γ (γ1 and γ2) isoforms, whereas only three genes are expressed in zebrafish, which lacks α-syn gene. The list of “non verified” sequences is much longer and is often found in sequence databases. In this review we provide an overview of published papers and known syn sequences in agnathans and fish that are likely to impact future studies in this field. Indeed, fish models may play a key role in elucidating some of the molecular mechanisms involved in physiological and pathological functions of syn proteins.</p></abstract><kwd-group><kwd>synuclein</kwd><kwd>fish</kwd><kwd>brain</kwd><kwd>zebrafish</kwd><kwd>carp</kwd></kwd-group></article-meta></front><body><sec id="sec1-marinedrugs-13-06665"><title>1. From Fish to Human: The Discovery of the Synuclein Family</title><p>Fish played a key role in the studies in the 1980’s that led to the discovery of the first synuclein (syn) sequence. In 1980, Carlson and Kelly [<xref rid="B1-marinedrugs-13-06665" ref-type="bibr">1</xref>] produced a rabbit antiserum against highly purified synaptic vesicles from the electric organ of the ray <italic>Narcine brasiliensis</italic>. Afterwards, in 1988, Maroteaux and co-workers [<xref rid="B2-marinedrugs-13-06665" ref-type="bibr">2</xref>] used the same antiserum to screen a cDNA library constructed with mRNA isolated from the brain electromotor lobe of <italic>Torpedo californica</italic>. One gene was characterized and sequenced having a transcript of about 1.4 kb and encoding a protein with a predicted molecular weight of 14.811 Da whose expression was restricted to the central nervous system (CNS). This new protein was named “synuclein” for its predominant localization in both presynaptic terminals and neuronal nucleus. Western blot experiments performed with an antiserum against a <italic>Torpedo</italic> syn/B-gal fusion protein detected three protein bands at 17.5, 18.5 and 20.0 kDa in CNS homogenates from <italic>Torpedo</italic>. The authors concluded that syn was a protein or a series of proteins specifically expressed in the CNS and possibly involved in the coordination of nuclear and synaptic events. In the same work, Maroteaux and coworkers found a homolog to <italic>Torpedo</italic> syn in the rat brain cDNA library. Sequence analysis revealed about 85% identity between fish and rat syns, suggesting that the new protein is conserved among vertebrate lineages.</p><p>In 1993, a homologous protein to rat syn was discovered in the brain of patients affected by Alzheimer’s disease (AD) [<xref rid="B3-marinedrugs-13-06665" ref-type="bibr">3</xref>]. While studying the composition of the amyloid plaques, Ueda and co-workers [<xref rid="B3-marinedrugs-13-06665" ref-type="bibr">3</xref>] were able to solubilize a previously unknown peptide that was named NAC (non-aβ component of AD amyloid). Its precursor, namely NAC protein (NACP), was homologous to rat syn. In the same years, the phosphoneuroprotein 14 (PNP 14), initially identified in bovine brain, was determined to be an additional member of the syn family [<xref rid="B4-marinedrugs-13-06665" ref-type="bibr">4</xref>,<xref rid="B5-marinedrugs-13-06665" ref-type="bibr">5</xref>,<xref rid="B6-marinedrugs-13-06665" ref-type="bibr">6</xref>]. NACP and the human ortholog of PNP 14 were then identified as two distinct isoforms of the syn family and respectively named α- and β-syn [<xref rid="B7-marinedrugs-13-06665" ref-type="bibr">7</xref>]. A third variant, structurally homologous to <italic>Torpedo</italic> syn was added to α- and β-syn: this protein was identified in both human [<xref rid="B8-marinedrugs-13-06665" ref-type="bibr">8</xref>] and rat [<xref rid="B9-marinedrugs-13-06665" ref-type="bibr">9</xref>] and named γ-syn [<xref rid="B10-marinedrugs-13-06665" ref-type="bibr">10</xref>]. </p><p>Human α-, β- and γ-syn are encoded by three distinct genes, <italic>snca</italic>, <italic>sncb</italic> and <italic>sncg</italic> respectively. The three genes map to different chromosomes (4q21.3-q22, 5q35 and 10q23) [<xref rid="B10-marinedrugs-13-06665" ref-type="bibr">10</xref>,<xref rid="B11-marinedrugs-13-06665" ref-type="bibr">11</xref>,<xref rid="B12-marinedrugs-13-06665" ref-type="bibr">12</xref>,<xref rid="B13-marinedrugs-13-06665" ref-type="bibr">13</xref>,<xref rid="B14-marinedrugs-13-06665" ref-type="bibr">14</xref>,<xref rid="B15-marinedrugs-13-06665" ref-type="bibr">15</xref>] and have a well preserved general organization made by five coding exons of similar size [<xref rid="B16-marinedrugs-13-06665" ref-type="bibr">16</xref>]. Alpha- and β-syn are predominantly expressed in the brain, particularly in neocortex, hippocampus, striatum, thalamus, and cerebellum whereas γ-syn is mainly expressed in the peripheral and the autonomic nervous system (cell bodies and axons of primary sensory, motor and sympathetic neurons) and in some tumors [<xref rid="B8-marinedrugs-13-06665" ref-type="bibr">8</xref>,<xref rid="B10-marinedrugs-13-06665" ref-type="bibr">10</xref>,<xref rid="B17-marinedrugs-13-06665" ref-type="bibr">17</xref>,<xref rid="B18-marinedrugs-13-06665" ref-type="bibr">18</xref>,<xref rid="B19-marinedrugs-13-06665" ref-type="bibr">19</xref>,<xref rid="B20-marinedrugs-13-06665" ref-type="bibr">20</xref>,<xref rid="B21-marinedrugs-13-06665" ref-type="bibr">21</xref>].</p><p>After the discovery of the three syns, research was primarily focused on α-syn for its involvement in several human neurodegenerative diseases known as synucleinopathies including Parkinson’s disease (PD), Parkinson’s disease dementia (PDD), dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB), multiple system atrophy (MSA), and a number of less well-characterized neuroaxonal dystrophies [<xref rid="B22-marinedrugs-13-06665" ref-type="bibr">22</xref>,<xref rid="B23-marinedrugs-13-06665" ref-type="bibr">23</xref>,<xref rid="B24-marinedrugs-13-06665" ref-type="bibr">24</xref>,<xref rid="B25-marinedrugs-13-06665" ref-type="bibr">25</xref>,<xref rid="B26-marinedrugs-13-06665" ref-type="bibr">26</xref>,<xref rid="B27-marinedrugs-13-06665" ref-type="bibr">27</xref>,<xref rid="B28-marinedrugs-13-06665" ref-type="bibr">28</xref>].</p><p>The universal feature of synucleinopathies is the accumulation of intracellular proteinaceous bodies containing α-syn aggregates rich in β-sheets [<xref rid="B24-marinedrugs-13-06665" ref-type="bibr">24</xref>]. These aggregates are called Lewy bodies in PD and PDD [<xref rid="B29-marinedrugs-13-06665" ref-type="bibr">29</xref>], glial cytoplasmic inclusions in MSA [<xref rid="B30-marinedrugs-13-06665" ref-type="bibr">30</xref>] and axonal spheroids in neuroaxonal dystrophies [<xref rid="B31-marinedrugs-13-06665" ref-type="bibr">31</xref>]. There is evidence indicating that molecular mechanisms involved in the pathogenesis of synucleinopathies are the misfolding of α-syn proteins into aggregates and their accumulation into intracellular bodies [<xref rid="B29-marinedrugs-13-06665" ref-type="bibr">29</xref>], and that neurotoxicity and cell death arise as a consequence of the dramatic α-syn accumulation [<xref rid="B32-marinedrugs-13-06665" ref-type="bibr">32</xref>,<xref rid="B33-marinedrugs-13-06665" ref-type="bibr">33</xref>].</p><p>Among synucleinopathies, the role of α-syn has been more widely investigated in PD. Single nucleotide polymorphisms in <italic>snca</italic> are strongly associated with the increased risk for idiopathic PD [<xref rid="B34-marinedrugs-13-06665" ref-type="bibr">34</xref>,<xref rid="B35-marinedrugs-13-06665" ref-type="bibr">35</xref>,<xref rid="B36-marinedrugs-13-06665" ref-type="bibr">36</xref>,<xref rid="B37-marinedrugs-13-06665" ref-type="bibr">37</xref>]. The <italic>snca</italic> missense mutation A53T was the first causal mutation identified in dominantly inherited PD [<xref rid="B38-marinedrugs-13-06665" ref-type="bibr">38</xref>]; other <italic>snca</italic> missense mutations such as A30P [<xref rid="B39-marinedrugs-13-06665" ref-type="bibr">39</xref>], E46K [<xref rid="B40-marinedrugs-13-06665" ref-type="bibr">40</xref>], H50Q [<xref rid="B41-marinedrugs-13-06665" ref-type="bibr">41</xref>,<xref rid="B42-marinedrugs-13-06665" ref-type="bibr">42</xref>], G51D [<xref rid="B43-marinedrugs-13-06665" ref-type="bibr">43</xref>], A53E [<xref rid="B44-marinedrugs-13-06665" ref-type="bibr">44</xref>] were then detected. <italic>In vitro</italic> experiments demonstrated that <italic>snca</italic> missense mutations accelerate the formation of α-syn fibrils [<xref rid="B45-marinedrugs-13-06665" ref-type="bibr">45</xref>]. Furthermore, <italic>snca</italic> duplications [<xref rid="B46-marinedrugs-13-06665" ref-type="bibr">46</xref>,<xref rid="B47-marinedrugs-13-06665" ref-type="bibr">47</xref>] and triplications [<xref rid="B48-marinedrugs-13-06665" ref-type="bibr">48</xref>] also lead to familiar PD suggesting that excessive amounts of normal proteins also cause PD. In addition, the formation of pathological inclusions may be promoted by α-syn post-translational modifications such as ubiquitination, nitration and phosphorylation [<xref rid="B49-marinedrugs-13-06665" ref-type="bibr">49</xref>,<xref rid="B50-marinedrugs-13-06665" ref-type="bibr">50</xref>,<xref rid="B51-marinedrugs-13-06665" ref-type="bibr">51</xref>].</p><p>Twenty-five years of research on syn-linked pathologies provided little advance in the discovery of physiological functions of syn proteins that still remain elusive. The collected body of evidence indicates that α-syn functions are related to its capacity to directly interact with membrane phospholipids by the highly conserved α-helical lipid-binding motif in the N-terminal region [<xref rid="B52-marinedrugs-13-06665" ref-type="bibr">52</xref>]. In particular, α-syn has been implicated in vesicle trafficking during neurotransmitter release [<xref rid="B53-marinedrugs-13-06665" ref-type="bibr">53</xref>,<xref rid="B54-marinedrugs-13-06665" ref-type="bibr">54</xref>], synaptic vesicle pool maintenance [<xref rid="B55-marinedrugs-13-06665" ref-type="bibr">55</xref>,<xref rid="B56-marinedrugs-13-06665" ref-type="bibr">56</xref>], synaptic plasticity [<xref rid="B40-marinedrugs-13-06665" ref-type="bibr">40</xref>] and learning [<xref rid="B57-marinedrugs-13-06665" ref-type="bibr">57</xref>]. Differently, γ-syn, first identified as breast cancer specific gene 1 (BCSG1) [<xref rid="B8-marinedrugs-13-06665" ref-type="bibr">8</xref>], is involved in tumor pathogenesis and correlates with adverse outcomes in breast [<xref rid="B8-marinedrugs-13-06665" ref-type="bibr">8</xref>,<xref rid="B17-marinedrugs-13-06665" ref-type="bibr">17</xref>], colon [<xref rid="B18-marinedrugs-13-06665" ref-type="bibr">18</xref>,<xref rid="B19-marinedrugs-13-06665" ref-type="bibr">19</xref>], pancreatic [<xref rid="B20-marinedrugs-13-06665" ref-type="bibr">20</xref>] and ovarian cancer [<xref rid="B17-marinedrugs-13-06665" ref-type="bibr">17</xref>]. Studies have revealed that the γ-syn overexpression leads to increased invasiveness of breast tumor cells [<xref rid="B58-marinedrugs-13-06665" ref-type="bibr">58</xref>] and stimulates cell proliferation [<xref rid="B59-marinedrugs-13-06665" ref-type="bibr">59</xref>].</p><p>Despite most research was focused on mammalian models, some advances were also made on syn expression in non-mammalian vertebrates. After Maroteaux’s pioneering work, α-syn-coding mRNAs were sequenced in representative fish, amphibians, reptiles, birds and non-primate mammals. The comparison of deduced amino acid sequences revealed that α-syns are evolutionary conserved in vertebrates [<xref rid="B60-marinedrugs-13-06665" ref-type="bibr">60</xref>,<xref rid="B61-marinedrugs-13-06665" ref-type="bibr">61</xref>,<xref rid="B62-marinedrugs-13-06665" ref-type="bibr">62</xref>]. Moreover, syn proteins are thought to exist only in vertebrates since no counterparts of their genes were found in the invertebrates investigated so far, <italic>i.e.</italic>, <italic>Caenorhabditis elegans</italic>, <italic>Drosophila melanogaster</italic> and <italic>Ciona intestinalis</italic> [<xref rid="B63-marinedrugs-13-06665" ref-type="bibr">63</xref>]. Recently, one α-syn sequence has been unexpectedly predicted from the genome of the tobacco <italic>Nicotiana tomentosiformis</italic> (XP_009616054.1 NCBI database). The mRNA coding sequence of the putative plant α-syn shares 100% of identity with that of human α-syn (transcript variants 1, 2, 3 and 6) and no homologous sequence is present in maize, rice and the <italic>Arabidopsis</italic> genome. Given the full identity between human and <italic>Nicotiana</italic> syn sequences, it can be assumed that the predicted tobacco syn represents a human contaminant of the plant cDNA library or a mislabeling of the sequence in NCBI. However, syn expression needs to be analyzed in tobacco cells before ruling out the putative existence of syn-like proteins in plants.</p><p>Current data on fish syns can be grouped in two sets: results from <italic>in vivo</italic> studies and putative nucleotide and amino acid sequences from biological databases, that were not verified in animal models. Although published papers are quite scarce, notable advancements have been made in zebrafish and carp, two ciprinids known as species models for vertebrates. Moreover, the list of putative syn sequences is continuously implemented, and we believe that an overview of available data is likely to stimulate research on the evolution of syn proteins in fish lineages. On the other hand, increasing knowledge about fish syns is helpful to develop new vertebrate models of parkinsonism for investigating relationships between syn proteins and neurodegenerative diseases.</p><p>In the present review, we provide a systematic framework for the available syn sequences of agnathans and fish. The same sequences were also compared by the maximum likelihood approach to get a first insight into the evolution of this gene family in fish. We also review the experimental studies recently performed in lamprey, fugu, zebrafish and carp.</p></sec><sec id="sec2-marinedrugs-13-06665"><title>2. Syn Isoforms in Agnathans and Fishes</title><p>Up to 144 nucleotide or deduced amino acid sequences of fish syns are available in the NCBI database (July 2015) from 29 species including jawless, cartilagineous and bony fishes. Most of them were obtained by RT-PCR of mRNAs extracted from blood or other tissues or predicted by computational analysis of the whole genome expression. Available sequences are summarized in <xref ref-type="table" rid="marinedrugs-13-06665-t001">Table 1</xref>.

ray-finned fishes (Osteichthyes, Actinopterygii) which was followed by the subsequent loss of some duplicated genes [<xref rid="B68-marinedrugs-13-06665" ref-type="bibr">68</xref>,<xref rid="B69-marinedrugs-13-06665" ref-type="bibr">69</xref>]. On the basis of this assumption, a major variability in the number of syn isoforms can be expected in teleosts caused by events of gene duplication/loss.</p><p>A clear example of this variability is represented by zebrafish (<italic>Danio rerio</italic>) in which three genes were identified, <italic>sncb</italic> (coding for β-syn), <italic>sncga</italic> (γ1) and <italic>sncgb</italic> (γ2) [<xref rid="B70-marinedrugs-13-06665" ref-type="bibr">70</xref>,<xref rid="B71-marinedrugs-13-06665" ref-type="bibr">71</xref>,<xref rid="B72-marinedrugs-13-06665" ref-type="bibr">72</xref>], none of which coded for α-syn. Indeed, the zebrafish genome lacks <italic>snca</italic>. This absence has been explained by the putative loss of the ancestral <italic>snca,</italic> together with its flanking sequences, during zebrafish evolution [<xref rid="B71-marinedrugs-13-06665" ref-type="bibr">71</xref>]. The same studies demonstrated that zebrafish <italic>sncb</italic> and <italic>sncga</italic> give rise to single mRNA species of 1.45 kb and 2.7 kb respectively, whereas s<italic>ncgb</italic> is alternatively spliced to produce two transcripts encoding two isoforms with divergent C-terminals. Both <italic>sncga</italic> and <italic>sncgb</italic> contain five exons whereas <italic>sncb</italic> contains six exons, the first of which is noncoding. Gene structure and splice boundaries in <italic>sncb</italic>, <italic>sncga</italic>, and <italic>sncgb</italic> are conserved with respect to their human orthologs, providing evidence of their common origin.</p><p>At least one coding sequence for α-syn was predicted in the other fish except from <italic>Lepisosteus ocellatus</italic>, <italic>Scleropages formosus</italic>, <italic>Osmerus mordax</italic>, <italic>Salmo salar</italic> and <italic>Anoplopoma fimbri</italic> (<xref ref-type="table" rid="marinedrugs-13-06665-t001">Table 1</xref>). In most of them, one or more β- and γ-syn sequences were also identified.</p><p>The absence of α-syn sequences from genebank could be theoretically attributed to the absence of <italic>snca</italic> in respective fish genomes. If confirmed, this would suggest that the α-syn coding gene had been independently lost in distinct actinopterygian fish lineages. At the moment, however, available data cannot be interpreted in this way, as the presence of α-syn sequences was not specifically investigated in all species. Data are still scarce. Moreover, some sequences have not been classified yet as α, β- or γ-syn, being simply reported as “syn” or “syn-like” isoforms. In addition, almost all the encoded or predicted proteins were not isolated nor characterized and several accession numbers refer to gene sequences encoding the same protein.</p><p>Additional isoforms named X1, X2 or X3 are present among α-, β-, and γ-syns.

The α-syn C2 and C3 are composed of 19 and 9 sequences respectively. The α-syn C2 contains mainly the so-called “α-syn-like” sequences whereas α-syn C3 contains mainly X1 and X2 α-syn isoforms. The remaining 9 α-syn sequences clustered with “syn-like” proteins and γ-syns. </p><p>The 26 fish β-syn sequences showed a good level of identity with human β-syn, grouping in the cluster β-syn C1.</p><p>Gamma-syns are widely distributed in the cladogram forming two main groups (γ-syn C1 and C2). γ-syn C1 contains fish γ-syns with the highest identity to mammalian γ-isoforms.

Both gene and protein expression of <italic>Torpedo</italic> syn are restricted to the CNS with most abundant transcripts in the electric lobe followed by the spinal cord and the brain. In the electric organ syn proteins were only detected without their mRNA transcripts. This is consistent with the fact that syns are synthesized in neuronal cell bodies and axonally transported to nerve terminals. The subcellular localization of syn proteins was analyzed in electromotor neurons by immunohistochemistry at LM (light microscopy) and TEM (transmission electron microscopy) level and results showed that syn is present in presynaptic terminals and in cell nuclei where labeling was intense along the inner nuclear membranes and diminished toward the center of the nuclei.</p><p>The expression of the four syn isoforms was analyzed in the fugu <italic>T. rupribes</italic> by Western blot using specific antibodies [<xref rid="B61-marinedrugs-13-06665" ref-type="bibr">61</xref>].

Higher amounts of γ-syn DY transcripts were detected in comparison to γ-syn FD and syn-3 transcripts. Moreover, the three genes were expressed to different levels in different neuronal populations. High γ-syn DY expression was detected in giant reticulospinal (RS) neurons, while γ-syn FD and syn-3 showed the highest expression levels in the facial motor nucleus (VIIn) (<xref ref-type="fig" rid="marinedrugs-13-06665-f002">Figure 2</xref>A). Interestingly, the three genes were differently regulated in axotomized neurons. Indeed, mRNA levels for γ-syn DY strongly decreased in injured neurons while no changes were detected for γ-syn FD and syn-3 mRNA levels. Cellular distribution of syn proteins was analyzed by immunofluorescence using a pan-syn polyclonal antibody able to detect all three syn isoforms. Results showed that lamprey syns are located in cell soma of control RS neurons but are also associated to nuclear and plasma membranes of axotomized neurons.</p><fig id="marinedrugs-13-06665-f002" position="float"><label>Figure 2</label><caption><p>Synuclein expression in lamprey, zebrafish and carp.

The gene <italic>sncb</italic> (β-syn) was first expressed from the eight-somite stage to three days post fertilization (dpf) [<xref rid="B70-marinedrugs-13-06665" ref-type="bibr">70</xref>]. Its expression was initially restricted to the trigeminal placode but then extended to the olfactory placode, ventral diencephalon, ventral tegmentum and spinal cord neurons by the 20-somite stage. At later stages, <italic>sncb</italic> expression became restricted to the brain and the retina where it was detected from 45 h post fertilization (hpf) up to 3 dpf. The expression of <italic>sncga</italic> (γ-synA or γ1) was not detected at early stages but initiated at 26 hpf in the nervous system beginning from spinal cord neurons and the pineal gland. It was then detected in hindbrain segmental neurons (38 hpf) becoming much more prominent in brain and cranial ganglia at two dpf. Similarly to <italic>sncb</italic>, the expression of <italic>sncga</italic> was restricted to the brain and the retina by three dpf. These data demonstrated that <italic>sncb</italic> and <italic>sncga</italic> are expressed in central and peripheral neurons irrespective of their different embryonal origin (neural plate <italic>versus</italic> placodes or neural crest). Very different spatio-temporal patterns were shown for <italic>sncgb</italic> (γ-synB or γ2) whose expression initiated earlier than <italic>sncga</italic>, was restricted to the notochord and was only detectable in the short time from the 12-somite stage to two dpf. Later on, <italic>sncgb</italic> expression diminished no more being detectable beyond 2 dpf. The spatio-temporal expression pattern of syn genes in zebrafish embryos is represented in <xref ref-type="fig" rid="marinedrugs-13-06665-f002">Figure 2</xref>B,C. </p><p>Temporal and spatial expression profiles of syn genes were also confirmed in zebrafish embryos by RT-PCR which also provided a semiquantitative evaluation of the expressional patterns [<xref rid="B72-marinedrugs-13-06665" ref-type="bibr">72</xref>]. Both <italic>sncb</italic> and <italic>sncgb</italic> expression were detected at early developmental stages (4 hpf) with <italic>sncb</italic> much more abundant than <italic>sncgb</italic> transcripts. Expression levels of <italic>sncb</italic> were intense at all developmental stages analyzed (4 hpf to 5 dpf). In contrast, levels of <italic>sncgb</italic> mRNAs were generally lower than those of <italic>sncb</italic> and further decreased by four dpf. The expression of <italic>sncga</italic> initiated later than <italic>sncb</italic> and <italic>sncgb</italic> (by one dpf) but its transcript level was similar to <italic>sncb</italic> at five dpf. The expression pattern of <italic>sngca</italic> was also analyzed in a transgenic stable zebrafish line. This line was obtained by microinjection into zygotes of a gene construct containing the GFP reporter gene under the control of the <italic>sngca</italic> promoter [<xref rid="B72-marinedrugs-13-06665" ref-type="bibr">72</xref>]. Expression profiles of <italic>sngca</italic> were obtained in transgenic embryos and larvae by whole-mount <italic>in situ</italic> hybridization, immunostaining, and high-resolution confocal microscopy. This analysis reported that <italic>sncga</italic> is expressed in both CNS and PNS of embryos and larvae. In 48 hpf embryos, GFP expression was found in retina, lens, hindbrain and spinal cord, but also in trigeminal and posterior lateral line ganglia. Similarly, at three dpf, the expression of <italic>sngca</italic> was detected in the diencephalon (habenula), eyes, midbrain, hindbrain, but also in trigeminal, vagal, and posterior lateral line ganglia. These results substantially confirmed the distribution of <italic>sncga</italic> described by Sun and Gitler [<xref rid="B70-marinedrugs-13-06665" ref-type="bibr">70</xref>] except for the positive staining described in the epiphysis that, according to the finest detection made by Chen <italic>et al.</italic> [<xref rid="B72-marinedrugs-13-06665" ref-type="bibr">72</xref>], is rather localized in the habenula.</p><p>Regional expression of syn genes is maintained in adult zebrafish as demonstrated by RT-PCR [<xref rid="B72-marinedrugs-13-06665" ref-type="bibr">72</xref>]. Thus, both <italic>sncb</italic> and <italic>sncga</italic> transcripts were particularly abundant in brain and eye, whereas <italic>sncgb</italic> was moderately expressed in brain and several non-nervous tissues, as testis and kidney.</p><p>The expression of syn genes was further reinvestigated in zebrafish brain and spinal cord from early embryo to adult stage by Northern blot and RNA <italic>in situ</italic> hybridization [<xref rid="B71-marinedrugs-13-06665" ref-type="bibr">71</xref>]. Northern blot analysis confirmed that both <italic>sncb</italic> and <italic>sncg1</italic> (<italic>sncga</italic>) are expressed in the adult CNS whereas <italic>sncg2</italic> (<italic>sncgb</italic>) transcript levels were too low to be identified. On confirming previous results, this study showed that the expression pattern of syn genes in embryos was similar to that found in adults with <italic>sncb</italic> and <italic>sncg1</italic> mainly expressed in the CNS and <italic>sncg2</italic> expressed in the notochord. In adult zebrafish, <italic>sncb</italic> and <italic>sncg1</italic> transcripts were both found in neurons throughout the brain and the spinal cord but their expression levels were often opposite in anteroposterior direction. Indeed, high levels of <italic>sncb</italic> transcripts were detected in the olfactory bulb and dorsal telencephalon where <italic>sncg1</italic> is expressed at low levels. Conversely, <italic>sncg1</italic> transcripts were abundant in the dorsal diencephalon (habenula) and hindbrain where <italic>sncb</italic> expression is moderate. By comparing zebrafish with lamprey it emerges that γ-syn expression in the reticular formation is conserved in the two lineages. Expression profiles of syn genes in the adult lamprey and zebrafish are depicted in <xref ref-type="fig" rid="marinedrugs-13-06665-f002">Figure 2</xref>A,E.</p><p>At cellular level, <italic>sncb</italic> and <italic>sncg1</italic> were generally expressed by separate cell populations even in those brain regions in which their expression was overlapped. For example, <italic>sncb</italic> was mostly expressed in granules and <italic>sncga</italic> in Purkinje cell layer of the cerebellum. However, major catecholaminergic cell groups expressed both <italic>sncb</italic> and <italic>sncg1</italic> as demonstrated by double labeling ISH/IHC experiments. </p><p>Further data in <italic>Cyprinus carpio</italic> was recently reported by our group [<xref rid="B73-marinedrugs-13-06665" ref-type="bibr">73</xref>]. We studied the distribution of a putative endogenous α-syn in the brain and spinal cord of the adult carp by providing the first neuroanatomical map of the α-syn distribution in the teleost CNS. The expression of α-syn was analyzed by Western blot and immunohistochemistry using a non commercial monoclonal antibody (3D5) developed against the C-terminal epitope (DMPVDPD) of human α-syn. This epitope is perfectly conserved in the carp α-syn. In brain and spinal cord homogenates, 3D5 antibody immunolabeled carp α-syn as a protein band at about 17 kDa. Western blot analysis showed that this protein is expressed to different levels in all brain regions and the spinal cord. The highest expression was detected in the midbrain tectum, followed by cerebellum and diencephalon whereas lower expression levels were found in brainstem, spinal cord and telencephalon [<xref rid="B73-marinedrugs-13-06665" ref-type="bibr">73</xref>].</p><p>The same 3D5 antibody was used for the immunohistochemical identification of α-syn expressing neuronal populations in the carp CNS. Positive neurons were not identified in the telencephalon but neurons expressing α-syn were localized in prethalamus, hypothalamus, synencephalon, cerebellum, brainstem and spinal cord (<xref ref-type="fig" rid="marinedrugs-13-06665-f002">Figure 2</xref>F). Intracellular distribution was almost ubiquitous, since α-syn was localized in perikarya, dendrites, axons and axon terminals, except for the cell nucleus. This aspect differentiated subcellular distribution of carp α-syn from that of <italic>Torpedo</italic> syn, which was specifically localized to the nucleus and presynaptic terminals. This may represent a true difference between α-(carp) and γ-syn (electric ray) intracellular distribution. Moreover, since 3D5 is able to specifically recognize nuclear α-syn in mammalian neurons [<xref rid="B74-marinedrugs-13-06665" ref-type="bibr">74</xref>], this result suggests that α-syn is present at very low levels in the nucleus of carp neurons. Further studies on the distribution of the three syns in fishes are necessary to elucidate this point.</p><p>Our results demonstrated that carp α-syn is expressed by cholinergic ChAT immunoreactive neurons throughout the brain and the spinal cord. Differently, few subpopulations of monoaminergic neurons showed evidence of colocalization 3D5/TH or 3D5/5HT. This distribution markedly differs from expression profiles of syn genes in zebrafish [<xref rid="B71-marinedrugs-13-06665" ref-type="bibr">71</xref>]. However, it must be pointed out that cellular distribution of α-syn might be different from that of β and γ isoforms expressed in zebrafish. No data are yet available on cellular distribution of β- and γ-syn proteins in other fish species.</p><p>No labeling for α-syn was found in the carp striatum whereas presynaptic staining for α-syn is present in the caudate-putamen and substantia nigra of mouse [<xref rid="B74-marinedrugs-13-06665" ref-type="bibr">74</xref>]. As reported above, both <italic>sncb</italic> and <italic>sncg1</italic> are expressed in dopaminergic neurons of zebrafish that innervate brain structures corresponding to the teleostean striatum. Differences between zebrafish and carp need to be clarified by <italic>in situ</italic> hybridization and immunohistochemical studies analyzing the expression profiles of the three syns in the carp.</p></sec><sec id="sec4-marinedrugs-13-06665"><title>4. Functions of Fish Synucleins</title><p>Few studies addressed the issue of biochemical and physiological functions of syn proteins in fishes. Interestingly, <italic>in vitro</italic> experiments in fugu demonstrated that fish syns, as the mammalian isoforms, are lipid-binding proteins able to assembly themselves into filaments [<xref rid="B61-marinedrugs-13-06665" ref-type="bibr">61</xref>]. These biochemical properties have strong relevance in both physiological and pathological events, as they are linked to vesicle targeting of syn proteins and the formation of protein inclusions respectively. All of the four syns exhibited liposome-binding activity but α-syn had a greater affinity to liposomes compared with its human counterpart. Alpha-, γ1- and γ2-syn proteins were all able to assembly themselves into filaments at a speed eight times higher than that of mammalian isoforms. Differently, fugu β-syn failed to assembly in bulk as the human β-isoform.</p><p>Larval movements were analyzed in zebrafish treated with morpholino to inhibit <italic>sncb</italic> and/or <italic>sncg1</italic>demonstrating that β- and γ1-syn are required for normal motor activity [<xref rid="B71-marinedrugs-13-06665" ref-type="bibr">71</xref>].</p><p>The expression of both genes is also necessary for establishment of normal dopamine levels. Thus, it was suggested that β- and γ1-syn expressed in dopaminergic neurons of zebrafish may regulate dopamine release from which normal striatal dopamine levels and movement regulation depends. A similar regulation by dopaminergic circuits is known in mammals. Tracer studies in zebrafish sustain this suggestion having shown that dopaminergic neurons in the posterior tuberculum give rise to ascending projections to the dorsal nucleus of the ventral telencephalon, which is considered the teleostean striatum [<xref rid="B75-marinedrugs-13-06665" ref-type="bibr">75</xref>].</p><p>Interestingly, in the morpholino-treated zebrafish larvae, the exogenous expression of human α-syn was able to prevent the decrease in motor activity and the reduction in number of dopamine neurons.</p><p>Research in zebrafish thus suggests the functional redundancy between syn isoforms, even from different species. This supports the functional conservation of syn proteins in vertebrates and suggests that β- and γ1-syn are required for spontaneous movements and dopaminergic functions playing similar roles to those established for α-syn in humans. Nonetheless, functional properties of α-syn orthologs remain to be investigated in fishes.</p></sec><sec id="sec5-marinedrugs-13-06665"><title>5. Conclusions</title><p>Pathological, biochemical and genetic evidence suggest that human α-syn plays a crucial role in the pathogenesis of Parkinson’s disease (PD), dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB), Multiple System Atrophy (MSA) and tumors [<xref rid="B29-marinedrugs-13-06665" ref-type="bibr">29</xref>,<xref rid="B76-marinedrugs-13-06665" ref-type="bibr">76</xref>,<xref rid="B77-marinedrugs-13-06665" ref-type="bibr">77</xref>,<xref rid="B78-marinedrugs-13-06665" ref-type="bibr">78</xref>].

Additional sequences for α-, β- and γ-syns have also been annotated in the NCBI database. </p><p>Sequence data on fish syns are still limited and need to be biologically verified. However the cladogram of deduced amino acid sequences highlights the degree of identity between β-syn sequences in fish, human and rat. By contrast, only some α- and γ-syns clustered together with the mammalian counterparts. The remaining sequences were distributed in more distant clusters composed of different syn isoforms. This comparative analysis suggests that the majority of sequences first classified as X1, X2 or X3 α-syn or generically classified as “syn” or “syn-like” have a greater similarity to fish and mammalian γ-syn rather than to α- and β-syn; however exceptions are present. On the whole, these data suggest that the current syn nomenclature is still ambiguous and further studies are necessary to correctly classify fish syn sequences.</p><p>Experimental data indicated that α- (carp), β- and γ1-syn (zebrafish) are expressed in the nervous system whereas γ2 isoform (zebrafish, fugu) is moderately expressed in the brain and also in non nervous tissues. Moreover, even in the actual panorama of partial and fragmentary information, available data indicated different spatiotemporal patterns of expression for the different syn isoforms in both embryos and adult fish tissues.</p><p>Results in zebrafish and carp indicate that different syn isoforms may be expressed in separate, neurochemically different neuronal populations. In addition, intracellular syn distribution may differ with regard to nuclear localization. Indeed, nuclear localization was described for <italic>Torpedo</italic> (classified as γ-syn) and lamprey syns (classified as γ-syn DY, γ-syn FD and syn-3) but not in carp and zebrafish neurons.</p><p>In conclusion, data available on fish syns demonstrate a good level of sequence similarity with mammalian isoforms, the preservation of biochemical properties related to the pathogenesis of human neurodegenerative diseases and the close relationship among syns, dopamine and motor activity. Overall, this suggests that fish can be useful models for studying molecular mechanisms involved in synucleinopathies.</p></sec></body><back><ack><title>Acknowledgments</title><p>We thank Chiara Adamo for help in synuclein sequence collection from the NCBI database.
