Project description:Neuroinflammation is thought to contribute to the pathogenesis of Alzheimer’s disease (AD), yet numerous studies have demonstrated a beneficial role for neuroinflammation in amyloid plaque clearance. We have previously shown that sustained expression of IL-1β in the hippocampus of APP/PS1 mice decreases amyloid plaque burden independent of recruited CCR2+ myeloid cells, suggesting resident microglia as the main phagocytic effectors of IL-1β-induced plaque clearance. To date, however, the mechanisms of IL-1β-induced plaque clearance remain poorly understood. To determine whether IL-1β-induced plaque clearance is due to enhanced microglial phagocytosis of Aβ, APP/PS1 mice induced to express mature human IL-1β in the hippocampus via adenoviral transduction were treated with the Aβ fluorescent probe methoxy-X04 (MX04) and microglial internalization of Aβ was analyzed by flow cytometry and immunohistochemistry. We found that resident microglia (CD45loCD11b+) constituted >70% of the MX04+ cells in both control and IL-1β-treated conditions, and that <10% of MX04+ cells were recruited myeloid cells (CD45hiCD11b+). However, we found that IL-1β treatment did not augment the percentage of MX04+ microglia nor the quantity of Aβ internalized by individual microglia. Instead, we found that IL-1β treatment resulted in a significant increase in the total number of MX04+ microglia in the hippocampus due to IL-1β-induced proliferation. Consistent with these results, transcriptomic analyses revealed very similar gene expression profiles between MX04+ and MX04- microglia, indicating IL-1β does not drive enhanced expression of phagocytosis-related genes. By contrast, IL-1β treatment was associated with large-scale changes in the expression of genes related to proliferation, immune function and inflammation. Together, these studies demonstrate that IL-1β induces microglial proliferation and the expression of genes involved in inflammatory immune functions that may be related to Aβ clearance.

Project description:Alzheimer’s disease (AD) therapies utilizing amyloid-β (Aβ) immunization have shown potential in clinical trials. Yet, the mechanisms driving Aβ clearance in the immunized AD brain remain unclear. Here, we use spatial transcriptomics to explore the effects of both active and passive Aβ immunization in the AD brain. We compare actively immunized AD patients with nonimmunized AD patients and neurologically healthy controls, identifying distinct microglial states associated with Aβ clearance. Using high-resolution spatial transcriptomics alongside single-cell RNA sequencing, we delve deeper into the transcriptional pathways involved in Aβ removal after lecanemab treatment. We uncover spatially distinct microglial responses that vary by brain region. Our analysis reveals upregulation of the triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells 2 (TREM2) and apolipoprotein E (APOE) in microglia across immunization approaches, which correlate positively with antibody responses and Aβ removal. Furthermore, we show that complement signaling in brain myeloid cells contributes to Aβ clearance after immunization. These findings provide new insights into the transcriptional mechanisms orchestrating Aβ removal and shed light on the role of microglia in immune-mediated Aβ clearance. Importantly, our work uncovers potential molecular targets that could enhance Aβ-targeted immunotherapies, offering new avenues for developing more effective therapeutic strategies to combat AD.
