Evaluation of altered cell-cell communication between glia and neurons in the hippocampus of 3xTg-AD mice at two time points

ABSTRACT: Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is the most prevalent neurodegenerative disease and the most common form of dementia. AD is characterized by progressive memory loss and cognitive decline, affecting behavior, speech, and motor abilities. The neuropathology of AD includes the formation of extracellular amyloid-β plaques and intracellular neurofibrillary tangles of phosphorylated tau, as well as neuronal loss. Although neuronal loss is a primary hallmark of AD, non-neuronal cell populations are known to maintain brain homeostasis and neuronal health through neuron-glia and glial cell crosstalk via chemical messengers. To investigate altered glia-neuron communication in the presence of amyloid-β and tau pathology, we generated snRNA-seq data from the hippocampus of 3xTg-AD mice at 6 and 12 months and age-matched wild-type littermates. We predicted altered glia-neuron interactions between senders (astrocytes, microglia, oligodendrocytes, and OPCs) and receivers (excitatory and inhibitory neurons) across time points. We further investigated these interactions through pseudo-bulk differential expression, functional enrichment, and gene regulatory analyses.

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

Project description: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.

VTA dopamine neurons are hyperexcitable in 3xTg-AD mice due to casein kinase 2-dependent SK channel dysfunction

Project description:Alzheimer's disease (AD) patients exhibit neuropsychiatric symptoms that extend beyond classical cognitive deficits, suggesting involvement of subcortical areas. Here, we investigated the role of midbrain dopamine (DA) neurons in AD using the amyloid + tau-driven 3xTg-AD mouse model. We found deficits in reward-based operant learning in AD mice, suggesting possible VTA DA neuron dysregulation. Physiological assessment revealed hyperexcitability and disrupted firing in DA neurons caused by reduced activity of small-conductance calcium-activated potassium (SK) channels. RNA sequencing from contents of single patch-clamped DA neurons (Patch-seq) identified up-regulation of the SK channel modulator casein kinase 2 (CK2). Pharmacological inhibition of CK2 restored SK channel activity and normal firing patterns in 3xTg-AD mice. These findings shed light on a complex interplay between neuropsychiatric symptoms and subcortical circuits in AD, paving the way for novel treatment strategies.

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.

Senescent cell elimination modifies features of Alzheimer’s disease in 3xTg-AD mice

Project description:Cellular senescence has been associated with neurodegenerative disease and clearance of senescent cells using genetic or pharmaceutical strategies (senolytics) has demonstrated beneficial effects in mouse models investigating individual disease etiologies of Alzheimer’s disease (AD). However, it has remained unclear if senescent cell clearance in a mouse model exhibiting both plaque and tau pathologies modifies the disease state (3xTg). Here, we show that treatment with senolytics (ABT263 (navitoclax) or a combination of dasatinib and quercetin (D+Q)) or transgenic removal of p16-expressing cells (via INK-ATTAC) reduced microgliosis and ameliorated both amyloid and tau pathology in 3xTg mice. Using RNA sequencing, we found evidence that synaptic dysfunction and neuroinflammation was attenuated with senescent cell removal. Unfortunately, these beneficial effects were not seen with short-term senolytic treatment in mice with more advanced disease. Overall, our results further corroborate the beneficial effects senescent cell clearance could have on AD and highlight the importance of early intervention for treatment of this debilitating disease.

Loss of TET3-mediated 5hmC promotes the Neurodegeneration of Alzheimer’s disease

Project description:Alzheimer's disease (AD) was attributed to alterations in multiple epigenetic systems including DNA methylation and demethylation patterns. DNA 5-hydroxymethylcytosin (5hmC), an epigenetic hallmark, plays importantly regulatory role in many biological processes. However, the 5hmC-mediated epigenetic underpinnings of AD neurodegeneration remain poorly understood. Here we report that selective loss of 5hmC is substantially presented in human AD and 3xTg-AD mouse neocortical and hippocampal neurons. Quantitative genome-wide analysis of hMeDIP-seq reveals that neuron-specific shift in decreased 5hmC enrichment in regions of promoter, intergenic and gene body of mRNA and lncRNA genes was found in3xTg-AD mice. We further identified that TET3, an enzyme that converts 5-methylcytosine (5mC) to 5hmC, responded to Beta amyloid neuronal toxicity and was mainly responsible for loss of 5hmC in AD brain. Overexpression of human TET3 catalytic domain (hTET3CD) significantly improves the neuroinflammation, neuropathological progression and cognitive deficits in 3xTg-AD mice. These findings implicate as a potential hallmark, TET3-mediated 5hmC epigenetic dysregulation is involved in driving AD neurodegeneration.

Lateral ventricle SVZ: 3xTg vs WT

Project description:Transcriptional profiling of the microdissected SVZ from 7-month-old mice Adult neurogenesis is suppressed in the SVZ of 3xTg mice, a model of Alzheimer's disease. To better understand the underlying mechanisms of this suppression, the goals of this experiment were to compare the transcriptional profiles of the SVZ neural stem cell niche in 3xTg-AD mice versus strain controls. We used early middle-aged mice (7-months-old) rather than old mice, in order to identify genetic changes that are not caused secondarily to other degenerative changes occurring in these mice. Two-condition experiment, 3xTg vs WT SVZ. Biological replicates: 4 for each.

Whole Blood Transcriptome Characterization of 3xTg-AD Mouse and its modulation by transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (tDCS)

Project description:The 3xTg-AD mouse is a widely used model in the study of Alzheimer’s Disease (AD). It has been extensively characterized both from the anatomical and behavioral point of view but poorly studied at the transcriptomic level. For the first time, this study characterizes the whole blood transcriptome of the 3xTg-AD mouse at three and six months of age and evaluates how gene expression is modulated by transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS). RNA-seq analysis revealed 183 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) that were a direct signature of the genetic background of the mouse. The expression profile of age-related genes in the 3 months-old 3xTg-AD mice was more similar to that of 6 months rather than 3 months-control mice, suggesting a premature aging of the 3xTg-AD mice. Moreover, in the 6 months-old 3xTg-AD mice, we observed a high number of DEGs that could represent good peripheral biomarkers of AD progression. Finally, tDCS was associated with gene expression changes in the 3xTg-AD but not in the control mice. In conclusion, this study provides a better molecular characterization of the 3xTg-AD mouse and suggests that blood gene expression can be used to identify new biomarkers of AD progression and treatments effect.

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
