Differential and synergistic transcriptional effects of early amyloid-β and tau pathologies in the hippocampus of APP, Tau, and APP/Tau female mice

ABSTRACT: Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is characterized by memory loss associated with accumulation of amyloid-β (Aβ) and tau in the brain, but how memory-processing neural circuits are differentially affected by each pathology remains unclear. Here, we investigated the transcriptional vulnerability to single and concomitant Aβ and tau pathologies in 6-month-old transgenic mice expressing mutant human amyloid precursor protein (APP), Tau, or both (APP/Tau mice) in excitatory neurons. We identified differential and synergistic pathology-induced transcriptional responses in the hippocampus of AD transgenic mice. These findings support the idea that Aβ and tau pathologies exert synergistic effects to disrupt gene expression programs underlying vulnerability of memory neural circuits in AD.

Transcriptional vulnerability to amyloid-β and tau pathologies differentially disrupts emotional and memory neural circuits

Project description:Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is characterized by memory loss and neuropsychiatric symptoms associated with cerebral accumulation of amyloid-β (Aβ) and tau, but how memory and emotional neural circuits are disrupted by AD pathology remains unclear. Here, we investigated the transcriptional vulnerability of memory and emotional circuits to concomitant Aβ and tau pathologies in transgenic mice expressing mutant human amyloid precursor protein (APP) and Tau (APP/Tau mice) in excitatory neurons. At 9 months, we detected common and region-specific transcriptional responses in the hippocampus and basolateral amygdala (BLA) of APP/Tau mice, including astrocytic, microglia and 63 AD-associated genes. These findings suggest that Aβ and tau pathologies disrupt region-specific gene expression programs underlying vulnerability of memory and emotional circuits to AD neuropathology.

Modulation of the endocytic, bioenergetic and transcriptomic pathways subserve the neuroprotective, anti-amyloidogenic action of cleavage-specific tau 12A12mAb in Alzheimer’s Disease mouse model

Project description:Beyond deficits in hippocampal-dependent episodic memory, Alzheimer’s Disease (AD) features sensory impairment in visual cognition consistent with extensive neuropathology in the retina. 12A12 is a monoclonal cleavage specific antibody (mAb) which in vivo selectively neutralizes the AD-relevant, harmful N-terminal 20-22kDa tau fragment(s) (i.e NH2htau) without altering the full-length normal protein. When systemically-injected into Tg2576 mouse model overexpressing a mutant form of Amyloid Precursor Protein (APP), APPK670/671L linked to early-onset familial AD, this conformation-specific tau mAb successfully neutralizes the NH2htau accumulating both in their brain and retina and, thus, markedly alleviates the phenotype-associated signs. By means of combined biochemical and metabolic and transcriptomic experimental approach, we report that 12A12mAb downregulates the steady state expression levels of APP and Beta-Secretase 1 (BACE-1) and, thus, limits the Amyloid beta (Aβ) production both in hippocampus and retina from this AD animal model. The endocytic (BIN1, RIN3) and bioenergetic (glycolisis and mitochondria) pathways controlling the cellular fate of APP processing towards the amyloidogenic route subserve the local, antibody-mediated anti-amyloidogenic action in vivo. Our results show for the first time that similar molecular and metabolic retino-cerebral pathways are modulated in coordinated fashion in response to 12A12mAb treatment to tackle the neurosensorial Aβ accumulation in AD neurodegeneration.

Early amyloid-induced changes in microglia gene expression in APP/PS1 mice [scRNA-seq]

Project description:Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disease and the most common cause of dementia, characterized by deposition of extracellular amyloid-beta (Aβ) aggregates and intraneuronal hyperphosphorylated Tau. Many AD risk genes, identified in genome-wide association studies (GWAS), are expressed in microglia, the innate immune cells of the central nervous system. Specific subtypes of microglia emerged in relation to AD pathology, such as disease-associated microglia (DAMs), which increased in number with age in amyloid mouse models and in human AD cases. However, the initial transcriptional changes in these microglia in response to amyloid are still unknown. Here, to determine early changes in microglia gene expression, hippocampal microglia from APPswe/PS1dE9 (APP/PS1) mice and wildtype littermates were isolated and analyzed by RNA sequencing (RNA-seq). By bulk RNA-seq, transcriptomic changes were detected in hippocampal microglia from 6-months-old APP/PS1 mice. By performing single cell RNA-seq of CD11c-positive and negative microglia from 6-months-old APP/PS1 mice and analysis of the transcriptional trajectory from homeostatic to CD11c-positive microglia, we identified a set of genes that potentally reflect the initial response of microglia to Aβ.

Transcriptome sequencing of hippocampal tissue of APP/PS1 mice treated with rotating magnetic field for 12 months

Project description:Amyloid beta (Aβ) monomers aggregate to form fibrils and amyloid plaques, which is one of the important mechanisms in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease (AD). Since the Aβ1-42 aggregation has prominent role in plaque formation, which eventually lead to the patient's brain lesions and cognitive impairment, an increasing number of studies have been devoted to reduce Aβ aggregation process to slow down AD progression. Since the diphenylalanine (FF) sequence is critical for amyloid aggregation, and it has been shown that magnetic fields can affect the alignment of peptide assembly due to the diamagnetic anisotropy of aromatic rings, here we used a moderate-intensity rotating magnetic field (RMF) to explore its effect on Aβ aggregation and AD pathogenesis. Our data showed that RMF can directly inhibit Aβ amyloid fibril formation and reduce Aβ-induced cytotoxicity on neural cells in vitro. Using the AD mouse model APP/PS1, we found that the RMF can restore their motor ability to the healthy control level. Their cognitive impairments, including exploration ability, spatial and non-spatial memory abilities, were also significantly alleviated. Tissue examinations reveal that RMF has reduced amyloid plaque accumulation, attenuated microglial activation ,and reduced oxidative stress in the APP/PS1 mouse brain. Therefore, our data demonstrate the great potential of RMF to be developed as a non-invasive, high-penetration physical approach to be applied in the treatment of AD.

Misprocessing of APP and accumulation of β-Amyloid causes early alteration of pathways implicated in late-onset Alzheimer disease.

Project description:Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified genes in lipid metabolism,inflammation and vesicular trafficking pathways as risk factors for late onset Alzheimer disease (LOAD). The mechanism by which they cause AD and their relationship to the amyloid cascade affected by genes causing early onset familial AD is unknown. Unproven hypotheses are that these LOAD genes modulate the amyloid cascade itself or downstream targets affected by this cascade.If so, it is likely that these genes and/or other genes in the same pathways may show alterations in their expression as an early consequence of misprocessing of amyloid precursor protein (APP) and accumulation of amyloid β-peptides (Aβ). We report that in three independent APP transgenic mouse models of AD, multiple genes in lipid and inflammation pathways show very early changes in mRNA and protein expression. Many of these changes are reversed by treatment with LXR agonists, which regulate transcription of genes in lipid/inflammation pathways, and which we have previously shown can reverse the cognitive deficits and neuropathology in Tg2756 mice. These results suggest that changes in lipid and inflammation pathways are likely to be very early consequences of APP misprocessing and Aβ accumulation in AD. Moreover, genetic variants within these pathways might affect risk for AD by modulating this early response. These pathways are likely to contain biomarkers of early disease and targets for therapies. TgCRND8 mice and wild-type littermate controls at ages 70, 80, and 150 days (n = 4 mice per cohort) were used in the study.

Expression data from C57/6J mice (Normal), APP/PS1 mice and APP/PS1 mice treatment with HPYD

Project description:Aβ is a peptide of 39-42 amino acid residues that derived from putative intramembranous processing of amyloid precursor protein (APP) at the proposed active site of the γ-secretase/PS1 aspartyl. Aβ has been shown to aggregate and accumulate abnormally in the brain of AD (Alzheimer's disease), and extracellular amyloid plaques of Aβ peptides aggregation can trigger a cascade of pathologic events leading to nerve fiber entanglement and neuronal apoptosis protease. We used microarrays to investigate the effects of HPYD on the gene expression of APP/PS1 transgenic mice, the brain tissues of control group, model group and HPYD group mice.

Effect of Bacteroides fragilis administration on microglia in WT and the APP-PS1 model of Alzheimer's disease [Bfrag]

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.

Deregulation of neuronal miRNAs induced by amyloid-β or TAU pathology

Project description:Despite diverging levels of amyloid-β (Aβ) and TAU pathology, different mouse models, as well as sporadic AD patients show predictable patterns of episodic memory loss. MiRNA deregulation is well established in AD brain but it is unclear whether Aβ or Tau pathology drives those alterations and whether miRNA changes contribute to cognitive decline. Therefore miRNAseq was performed on the hippocampus of APPswe/PS1L166P and Thy-TAU22 mice and their respective wild-type littermates when they were cognitively intact (4 months) and impaired (10 months). We found 6 miRNAs that are commonly upregulated between APPtg and TAUtg mice, and four of these were also altered in AD patients. All 6 miRNAs are strongly enriched in neurons as verified by in situ hybridization.

APP levels mediate beta-amyloid but not tau-related aspects of Alzheimer’s disease in a Down syndrome model of cortical neurogenesis.

Project description:Early-onset Alzheimer’s disease-like pathology in Down syndrome (DS, trisomy 21) is commonly attributed to an increased dosage of the amyloid precursor protein (APP) gene. To test this central tenet of the amyloid-cascade hypothesis we deleted the supernumerary copy of the APP gene in trisomic DS iPSC, or upregulated APP expression in euploid human pluripotent stem cell lines with dCas9-VP64, and subjected these lines to prolonged cortical neural differentiation. Our data reveal that increased APP gene dosage and expression is necessary and sufficient for increased beta-amyloid production and pyroglutamate(E3)-containing plaque deposition, but is neither sufficient nor required for tau hyperphosphorylation, neurofibrillary tangle formation, or increased oxidative stress-induced apoptosis in neurons. Transcriptome comparisons of the isogenic neurons demonstrates that the supernumerary APP gene copy has profound temporally-modulated genome-wide effects on gene expression during differentiation and maturation of DS neuronal cultures that link APP function to regulation of genes involved in neuronal synaptic function and outgrowth of neuronal processes. Collectively, our data reveal that APP plays an important role in the amyloidogenic aspects of Alzheimer’s disease, but challenge the hypothesis that increased APP levels are solely responsible for hyperphosphorylation of tau or enhanced oxidative stress-induced neuronal cell death in Down syndrome associated AD-pathogenesis.
