Profiling the neuroimmune cascade in 3xTg mice exposed to successive mild traumatic brain injuries

ABSTRACT: Repetitive mild traumatic brain injuries (rmTBI) sustained within a window of vulnerability can result in long term cognitive deficits, depression, and eventual neurodegeneration associated with tau pathology, amyloid beta plaques, gliosis, and neuronal and functional loss. However, we have limited understanding of how successive injuries affect the brain to result in these devastating long-term consequences. In the current study, we addressed the question of how repeated injuries affect the brain in the acute phase of injury (<24hr) by exposing the 3xTg-AD mouse model of tau and amyloid beta pathology to successive (1x, 3x, 5x) once-daily weight drop closed-head injuries and quantifying transcription at 30min, 4hr, and 24hr after each injury.

Expression profiling of ncRNAs with custom microarray in 3, 10 and 20 month old wild type and 3xTG AD mice

Project description:In this study, we particularly focused on short ncRNA expression profiling of three, ten and twenty month old triple transgenic mouse model for Alzheimers disease (Oddo et al.; 2003;Neuron). These mice harbor presenilin PS1(M146V), APP(Swedish) and tau(P301L) mutations and develop beta-amyloid plaques and at later stages also a tau pathology. Controls are age matched B6129SF2/J mice.

Single-cell RNA-Seq of TauP301L, PS2APP/TauP301L, and PS2APP/TauP301L/TREM2KO mouse hippocampi, 19-22 months old

Project description:Loss-of-function mutations in TREM2 (triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells 2) strongly increase Alzheimer’s disease (AD) risk. Preclinical models using Trem2 deletion or overexpression have revealed a protective Trem2 function related to β-amyloid accumulation, a process that is most prominent during the pre-diagnosis stages of AD. The role of TREM2 in later AD stages characterized by tau-mediated neurodegeneration is less clear. To understand Trem2 function in the context of both β-amyloid and tau pathologies, we examined Trem2-deficient mice expressing mutant tau alone (pR5-183 model) or in the TauPS2APP model, in which β-amyloid pathology exacerbates tau pathology and neurodegeneration. Single-cell RNA-sequencing in these models revealed robust disease-associated microglia (DAM) activation in TauPS2APP mice that was both amyloid-dependent and Trem2-dependent. In the presence of β-amyloid pathology, Trem2 deletion further exacerbated tau accumulation and spreading and promoted brain atrophy. Without β-amyloid pathology, Trem2 deletion did not affect these processes. Therefore, TREM2 may slow AD progression and reduce tau-driven neurodegeneration by restricting the degree to which β-amyloid facilitates the spreading of pathogenic tau

Microglia-mediated T cell Infiltration Drives Neurodegeneration in Tauopathy

Project description:Extracellular amyloid-β (Aβ) deposition as neuritic plaques and intracellular accumulation of hyperphosphorylated, aggregated tau as neurofibrillary tangles (NFT) are two of the characteristic hallmarks in Alzheimer’s disease (AD). The regional progression of brain atrophy in AD highly correlates with tau accumulation but not amyloid deposition and the mechanisms of tau-mediated neurodegeneration remain elusive. Innate immune responses represent a common pathway for the initiation and progression of some neurodegenerative diseases. To date, little is known about the extent or role of the adaptive immune response in the presence of Aβ or tau pathology. We systematically compared the immunological milieus in the brain of mice with amyloid deposition or tau aggregation and neurodegeneration. We found that mice with tauopathy but not amyloid, developed a unique innate and adaptive immune response and that depletion of microglia or T-cells blocked tau-mediated neurodegeneration. T cells, especially cytotoxic T cells, were markedly increased in areas with tau pathology in mice with tauopathy and in the AD brain. T cell numbers correlated with the extent of neuronal loss, and dynamically transformed their cellular characteristics from activated to exhausted states along with unique TCR clonal expansion. Inhibition of IFN-γ and PD-1signaling both significantly ameliorated brain atrophy. Our results thus reveal a tauopathy and neurodegeneration-related immune hub involving activated microglia and T cell responses, which could serve as therapeutic targets for preventing neurodegeneration in AD and primary tauopathies.

Microbial infection instigates tau-related pathology via activating neuroimmune cGAS-STING pathway

Project description:Microbial infection, the strong trigger to directly induce inflammation in brain, is long considered a risk factor of Alzheimer’s disease, but how these infections contribute to neurodegeneration remains underexplored. Using a modified herpesvirus potentially relevant to this disease, we found that its infection promotes tau-related pathology in part via activating neuroimmune cGAS-STING pathway in the tau mouse models. These represent a causal link of environmental infectious factors and neurodegenerative diseases.

Distinct amyloid-b and tau associated microglia profiles in Alzheimer's disease

Project description:Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is the most prevalent form of dementia and is characterized by abnormal extracellular aggregates of amyloid-b and intraneuronal hyperphosphorylated, tau tangles and neuropil threads. Microglia, the tissue-resident macrophages of the central nervous system (CNS), are important for CNS homeostasis and implicated in AD pathology. In amyloid mouse models, a phagocytic/activated microglia phenotype has been identified. How increasing levels of amyloid-b and tau pathology affect human microglia transcriptional profiles is unknown. Here, we performed snRNAseq on 482,472 nuclei from non-demented control brains and AD brains containing only amyloid-b plaques or both amyloid-b plaques and tau pathology. Within the microglia population, distinct expression profiles were identified of which two were AD pathology-associated. The phagocytic/activated AD1-microglia population abundance strongly correlated with tissue amyloid-b load and localized to amyloid-b plaques. The AD2-microglia abundance strongly correlated with tissue phospho-tau load and these microglia were more abundant in samples with over tau pathology. This full characterization of human disease associated microglia phenotypes provides new insights in the pathophysiological role of microglia in AD and offers new targets for microglia-state-specific therapeutic strategies.

CSF1R inhibition rescues tau pathology and neurodegeneration in an A/T/N model with combined AD pathologies, while preserving plaque associated microglia

Project description:Alzheimer's disease (AD) is characterized by a sequential progression of amyloid plaques (A), neurofibrillary tangles (T) and neurodegeneration (N), constituting ATN pathology. While microglia are considered key contributors to AD pathogenesis, their contribution in the combined presence of ATN pathologies remains incompletely understood. As sensors of the brain microenvironment, microglial phenotypes and contributions are importantly defined by the pathologies in the brain, indicating the need for their analysis in preclinical models that recapitulate combined ATN pathologies, besides their role in A and T models only. Here, we report a new tau-seed model in which amyloid pathology facilitates bilateral tau propagation associated with brain atrophy, thereby recapitulating robust ATN pathology. Single-cell RNA sequencing revealed that ATN pathology exacerbated microglial activation towards disease-associated microglia (DAM) states, with a significant upregulation of Apoe as compared to amyloid-only models (A). Importantly, Colony-Stimulating Factor 1 Receptor inhibition preferentially eliminated non-plaque-associated versus plaque associated microglia. The preferential depletion of non-plaque-associated microglia significantly attenuated tau pathology and neuronal atrophy, indicating their detrimental role during ATN progression. Together, our data reveal the intricacies of microglial activation and their contributions to pathology in a model that recapitulates the combined ATN pathologies of Alzheimer's disease. Our data may provide a basis for microglia-targeting therapies selectively targeting detrimental microglial populations, while conserving protective populations.

RNA-seq of frontal cortex in a novel mouse model of Alzheimer's disease.

Project description:There is accumulating evidence that amyloid beta and tau proteins may act synergistically to cause synapse and neural circuit degeneration in Alzheimer’s disease. In order to study this, we designed a new mouse model which lacks endogenous mouse tau, but expresses both the APP/PS1 transgene, which causes well-characterised plaque-associated synapse loss, and also reversibly expresses wild-type human tau (which can be suppressed with doxycycline). We examined the transcriptional changes in the frontal cortex of this mouse model, along with behaviour, pathology, synaptic plasticity, synapse degeneration and accumulation of amyloid beta and tau at synapses, and compared with littermate control genotypes: those lacking endogenous mouse tau, those lacking endogenous mouse tau but expressing the APP/PS1 transgene only, and those lacking endogenous mouse tau but reversibly expressing wild-type human tau only.

Single-Cell RNA-Seq of PS2APP mouse hippocampi

Project description:Non-neuronal responses in neurodegenerative disease have received increasing attention as important contributors to disease pathogenesis and progression. Here we utilize single-cell RNA-sequencing to broadly characterize responses of twelve cell types in three different mouse models of Alzheimer’s Disease, capturing the effects of tau-only, amyloid-only, or combined tau- amyloid pathology. We characterize microglia, oligodendrocyte, astrocyte, and T cell responses and compare them across these models. Notably, we identify two distinct transcriptional states for oligodendrocytes induced during disease and determine their spatial distribution. Furthermore, we explore the impact of Trem2 deletion in the context of combined pathology. Trem2 knockout mice exhibit severely blunted microglial responses to combined tau and amyloid pathology, but responses from non-microglial cell types (oligodendrocytes, astrocytes, and T cells) are relatively unchanged. These results delineate core transcriptional states that are accessible in the degenerating brain and how they are influenced by a key Alzheimer’s Disease risk gene, Trem2.

microRNA-132/212 deficiency enhances Ab production and senile plaque deposition in Alzheimerâs disease triple transgenic mice

Project description:The abnormal regulation of amyloid-b (Ab) metabolism (e.g., production, cleavage, clearance) plays a central role in Alzheimerâs disease (AD). Among endogenous factors believed to participate in AD progression are the small regulatory non-coding microRNAs (miRs). In particular, the miR-132/212 cluster is severely reduced in the AD brain. In previous studies we have shown that miR-132/212 deficiency in mice leads to impaired memory and enhanced Tau pathology as seen in AD patients. Here we demonstrate that the genetic deletion of miR-132/212 promotes Ab deposition and amyloid (senile) plaque formation in triple transgenic AD (3xTg-AD) mice. Using RNA-Seq and bioinformatics, we identified genes of the miR-132/212 network with documented roles in the regulation of Ab metabolism, including Tau, Mapk, and Sirt1. We used RNA-Seq to analyse the hippocampus of 3xTg-AD mice lacking the miR-132/212 cluster as well as Neuro2a cells overexpressing miR-132 mimics.
