Project description:A hive product propolis has been used for folk medicine for more than 4, 000 years. So far, several line of studies demonstrated that propolis improved glucose metabolism in obese models. In this study, we inverstigated whether propolis modulates stromal cells of mesenteric adipose tissue of ob/ob mice. Male ob/ob mice were inhjected with Brazilian propolis ethanol extract (100mg/kg ip, twice a week) or vehicle for 12 weeks. Subsequently, vasucular stromal fraction was prepared from mesenteric adipose tissue. Total cellular RNA extracted from the fraction was used for microarray analysis. Biological triplicates were subjected.

Project description:Amyloid-beta (Aβ) plays a key role in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer’s disease (AD), but little is known about the proteoforms present in human AD brain. We used high-resolution mass spectrometry to analyze intact, undigested Aβ from purified soluble aggregates and insoluble material in brains of 6 cases with severe dementia and pathologically confirmed AD. The soluble aggregates are especially relevant because they are believed to be the most toxic form of Aβ. We found a diversity of Aβ peptides, with 26 unique proteoforms including various N- and C-terminal truncations. N- and C-terminal truncations comprised 73% and 30%, respectively, of the number of Aβ proteoforms detected. The Aβ proteoforms segregated between the soluble and more insoluble aggregates with N-terminal truncations predominating in the insoluble material and C- terminal truncations segregating into the soluble aggregates. In contrast, canonical Aβ comprised the minority of the number of identified proteoforms (15.3%) and did not distinguish between the soluble and more insoluble aggregates. The relative abundance of many truncated Aβ proteoforms did not correlate with post-mortem interval, suggesting they are not artefacts. This heterogeneity of Aβ proteoforms deepens our understanding of AD and offers many new avenues for investigation into pathological mechanisms of the disease, with implications for therapeutic development.

Project description:Amyloid-beta (Aβ) plays a key role in the neuropathogenesis of Alzheimer’s disease, but little is known about the proteoforms (i.e., all protein variants of a single gene including post-translational modifications and sequence variants) present in human AD brain. We used high-resolution mass spectrometry to analyze intact, whole Aβ from soluble and insoluble aggregates in brains of 6 cases with severe dementia and pathologically confirmed Alzheimer’s disease. We found an extraordinary diversity of Aβ peptides totaling 91 unique proteoforms including various N- and C-terminal truncations, 17 different types of post-translational modifications (PTMs), and remarkably 5 amino acid variants in the peptide sequence never before described. Ratios of Aβ proteoforms did not distinguish between soluble and insoluble aggregates, but four individual Aβ proteoforms, three in the insoluble and one in the soluble fraction, were markedly increased when compared across aggregates. Such heterogeneity of the Aβ peptide both deepens our understanding of AD, but perhaps also warrants pause and consideration in our investigation into pathological mechanisms of the disease and therapeutic development.

Project description:Recently, genes associated with immune response and inflammation have been identified as genetic risk factors for late-onset Alzheimer's disease (LOAD). One of them is the rare p.Arg47His (R47H) variant within triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells 2 (TREM2), which has been shown to increase the risk for developing AD 2-3-fold. Here, we report the generation and characterization of a model of LOAD using lymphoblast-derived iPSCs from patients harbouring the R47H mutation in TREM2 (AD TREM2 iPSCs), as well as from control individuals without dementia (CON iPSCs). iPSCs efficiently differentiate into mature neuronal cultures and comparative global transcriptome analysis identified a distinct gene expression profile in AD TREM2 neuronal cultures. Furthermore, manipulation of the iPSCderived functional neuronal cultures with an Aβ-S8C dimer highlighted metabolic pathways, phagosome and immune response as the most perturbed pathways in AD TREM2 neuronal cultures. Through the construction of an Aβ-induced gene regulatory network, we were able to identify an Aβ signature linked to protein processing in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) which emphasised ER-stress, as a potential causal role in LOAD. Overall, this study has shown that our AD-iPSC based model can be used for in-depth studies to better understand the molecular mechanisms underlying the etiology of LOAD and provides new opportunities for screening of potential therapeutic targets.

Project description:Astrocytes, one of the most resilient cells in the brain, transform into reactive astrocytes in response to toxic proteins such as amyloid beta (Aβ) in Alzheimer’s disease (AD). However, reactive astrocyte-mediated non-cell autonomous neuropathological mechanism is not fully understood yet. We aimed our study to find out whether Aβ-induced proteotoxic stress affects the expression of autophagy genes and the modulation of autophagic flux in astrocytes, and if yes, how Aβ-induced autophagy-associated genes are involved Aβ clearance in astrocytes of animal model of AD. Whole RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) was performed to detect gene expression patterns in Aβ-treated human astrocytes in a time-dependent manner. To verify the role of astrocytic autophagy in an AD mouse model, we developed AAVs expressing shRNAs for MAP1LC3B/LC3B (LC3B) and Sequestosome1 (SQSTM1) based on AAV-R-CREon vector, which is a Cre recombinase-dependent gene-silencing system. Also, the effect of astrocyte-specific overexpression of LC3B on the neuropathology in AD (APP/PS1) mice was determined. Neuropathological alterations of AD mice with astrocytic autophagy dysfunction were observed by confocal microscopy and transmission electron microscope (TEM). Behavioral changes of mice were examined through novel object recognition test (NOR) and novel object place recognition test (NOPR). Here, we show that astrocytes, unlike neurons, undergo plastic changes in autophagic processes to remove Aβ. Aβ transiently induces expression of LC3B gene and turns on a prolonged transcription of SQSTM1 gene. The Aβ-induced astrocytic autophagy accelerates urea cycle and putrescine degradation pathway. Pharmacological inhibition of autophagy exacerbates mitochondrial dysfunction and oxidative stress in astrocytes. Astrocyte-specific knockdown of LC3B and SQSTM1 significantly increases Aβ plaque formation and hypertrophic reactive astrocytes in APP/PS1 mice, along with a significant reduction of neuronal marker and cognitive function. In contrast, astrocyte-specific overexpression of LC3B reduced Ab aggregates in the brain of APP/PS1 mice An increase of LC3B and SQSTM1 protein is found in astrocytes of the hippocampus in AD patients. Taken together, our data indicates that Aβ-induced astrocytic autophagic plasticity is an important cellular event to modulate Aβ clearance and maintain cognitive function in AD mice.

Project description:To reveal the mechanisms that Ogt controls inflammatory response of astrocytes, we first performed RNA-seq with Ctrl and Ogt cKO astrocytes isolated from the brains of adult mice. Given the inflammation in the brain of Alzheimer’s disease, we next performed RNA-seq with astrocytes isolated from the brains of adult Ctrl and 5X APP Alzheimer’s mice model (AD), and Aβ treated astrocytes, respectively. Taken together, these findings suggest that differentially expressed genes shared between cKO astrocytes, AD astrocytes and Aβ-treated astrocytes are related with inflammation.

Project description:The gut microbiota and innate immune system play critical roles in Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Bacteroides is elevated in AD patients and correlates with cerebrospinal fluid levels of Aβ and tau. We found that increased amyloid-β (Aβ) plaques in Bacteroides fragilis treated APP/PS1-21 mice were associated with altered cortical expression Aβ processing genes. B. fragilis suppressed peripheral CD4+ T cell production of GM-CSF and IL-4 and transcriptional changes in microglia related to GM-CSF and IL-4 signaling, phagocytosis, and protein degradation. Furthermore, B. fragilis impaired the microglial uptake of intracranially injected Aβ42, whereas Erysipelotrichaceae strains increased uptake. Depleting murine Bacteroidetes with metronidazole decreased amyloid load in aged 5xFAD mice, increased CD4+ T cell GM-CSF production, and activated microglial pathways related to cytokine signaling, phagocytosis and lysosomal degradation. These data suggest that the gut microbiome may contribute to AD pathogenesis by suppressing peripheral cytokines and microglia phagocytic function, leading to impaired immune-mediated Aβ clearance.
