Project description:Microglia, the innate immune cells of the central nervous system, perform critical inflammatory and non-inflammatory functions to maintain homeostasis and normal neural function. However in Alzheimer’s disease (AD), these beneficial functions become progressively impaired, contributing to synapse and neuron loss and cognitive impairment. The inflammatory cyclooxygenase-PGE2 pathway, including the PGE2 receptor EP2, is implicated in AD development, both in human epidemiology and in transgenic models of AD. To test the transcriptional responses of EP2-deficient microglia to Aβ in vivo, we used mice in which the EP2 receptor is conditionally deleted in microglia using the CD11b-Cre transgene and floxed alleles of the EP2 gene. By injecting these mice with Aβ ICV and isolating microglia from the brains, we have been able to establish the transcriptional response of microglia to Aβ in vivo and test how EP2 deletion in microglia affects this response. 8 month-old C57BL/6 mice, of the genotype CD11b-Cre; EP2+/+ or CD11b-Cre; EP2lox/lox, were injected I.C.V. with either Aβ or vehicle. 48 hours after injection, the mice were sacrificed and transcardially perfused with cold heparinized 0.9% NaCl. Brains were then removed from the mice and pooled, two brains of the same genotype per sample, to ensure adequate cell and RNA yield. The brains were then enzymatically dissociated for microglia isolation using the Neural Tissue Dissociation Kit (P), MACS Separation Columns (LS), and magnetic CD11b Microbeads from Miltenyi Biotec according to the manufacturer's protocol. Immediately after isolating the microglia, RNA was extracted from the cells for microarray analysis.

Project description:Microglia isolation from adult mouse brains remains difficult in comparison to microglia isolation from brains from newborn mouse brains as connective tissue, extracellular matrix materials and thicker myelin sheaths substantially influence traditional isolation protocols used with newborn mouse brains. Since the introduction of magnetic activated cell sorting (MACS), it has been reported that it is possible to also obtain microglia cells from adult mouse brains with a very good purity. However, most studies only used flow cytometry and/or qPCR to determine microglia enrichment and enrichment of traditional microglia marker proteins. Therefore we wanted to characterize in an unbiased way the proteomes of with MACS isolated microglia cells (CD11b positive cells) in comparison to all non-CD11b positive cells (termed non-target cell fraction (NTCF)), which consist of primarily astrocytes, neurons and oligodendrocytes. Therefore, we isolated from three adult mouse brains via MACS CD11b positive cells as well as the remaining CD11b negative cells (NTCF) to characterize the proteome of both cell fractions. The obtained proteomes were compared to a dataset of proteomic signatures for all CNS cell types determined by Sharma et al., (2015, doi: 10.1038/nn.4160) to determine the amount of enrichment of microglia-specific proteins.

Project description:This data set shows dramatic changes in gene expression in microglia isolated from C57Bl6/J mice subjected to transient middle cerebral artery occlusion, as compared to those subjected to sham surgery. Mice deficient in Mincle (Clec4e-/-) showed significantly improved injury outcomes 3 and 7 days after transient middle cerebral artery occlusion. However, when comparing changes in gene expression in microglia 24 hours after blood reperfusion, there were no differences between wild-type and Clec4e-/- mice, indicating that Mincle does not participate in early microglial activation. Wild type and Mincle knock-out (Clec4e-/-) mice. After 1 h of transient middle cerebral artery occlusion (tMCAO) and 24 h of reperfusion, mice were perfused with PBS, their brains dissected, and 2 ipsilesional hemispheres (with cerebellum and brainstem removed) pooled for microglia isolation. For sham-operated animals, the whole forebrain was used and brains were not pooled. After myelin separation by Percoll gradient centrifugation, around 80,000 CD45intermediate, CD11b+ microglial cells were sorted from each sample. Sham samples n=3, tMCAO samples n=5.

Project description:Purpose: Microglia are essential for central nervous system (CNS) homeostasis and innate neuroimmune function, and play important roles in neurodegeneration and brain aging. Here, we present gene expression profiles of purified microglia isolated at autopsy from the parietal cortex of 39 human subjects with intact cognition. We identified an age-associated gene signature in human microglia that was enriched for genes involved in cell adhesion, axonal guidance, cell surface receptor expression, and actin disassembly. Methods: mRNA profiles of 39 human microglia samples isolated from subjects with intact cognition, 16 corresponding superior parietal cortex tissue and 10 epilepsy surgical samples were generated in a Illumina HiSEQ 2500 sequencer. mRNA profiles of 6 parietal cortex from mice were prepared with a Quantseq 3’mRNA-Seq kit (Lexogen, USA). Reads were aligned to the hg38 assembly of the human genome using STAR and quantified at the gene level by featureCounts. Differential expression between whole brain tissue, surgical samples and isolated microglia was assessed with limma. Results: Overall, genes expressed by human microglia are similar to those in mouse, including established microglia genes CX3CR1, P2YR12, and ITGAM/CD11B. However, a number of immune genes, not identified as part of the mouse microglial signature, were abundantly expressed in human microglia, including TLR, Fc-gamma and SIGLEC receptors, as well as TAL1 and IFI16, regulators of proliferation and cell cycle. Age-associated changes in human microglia were enriched for genes involved in cell adhesion, axonal guidance, cell surface receptor expression, and actin (dis)assembly. Limited overlap was observed in microglial genes regulated during aging between mice and humans, indicating that human and mouse microglia age differently. Conclusions: Here we present the an extensive human microglia gene expression profile. Critical differences with mouse microglia, especially in the context of aging, were observed which highlight the necessity to independently study human microglia. These data and analyses serve as a starting point to address human-specific microglia genes and functions under physiological and neuropathological conditions.

Project description:A persistent and non-resolving inflammatory response to accumulating A? peptide species is a cardinal feature in the development of Alzheimer's disease (AD). In response to accumulating A? peptide species, microglia, the innate immune cells of the brain, generate a toxic inflammatory response that accelerates synaptic and neuronal injury. Many pro-inflammatory signaling pathways are linked to progression of neurodegeneration. However, endogenous anti-inflammatory pathways capable of suppressing A?-induced inflammation represent a relatively unexplored area. Here we hypothesized that signaling through the prostaglandin-E2 (PGE2) EP4 receptor potently suppresses microglial inflammatory responses to A?42 peptides. In cultured microglial cells, EP4 stimulation attenuated levels of A?42-induced inflammatory factors and potentiated phagocytosis of A?42. Microarray analysis was performed and demonstrated that EP4 stimulation broadly opposed A?42-driven gene expression changes in microglia, with enrichment for targets of IRF1, IRF7, and NF-?B transcription factors. Primary microglia were isolated from the brains of postnatal day 7 C57BL/6J mouse pups using the Neural Tissue Dissociation Kit (P), MACS Separation Columns (LS), and magnetic CD11b Microbeads from Miltenyi Biotec (Auburn, CA). Microglia from three separate litters of pups were maintained as three independent biological replicates for each treatment. After being cultured for three days, microglia were treated with oligomeric A?42 (10uM) and/or the specific EP4 agonist AE1-329 (100nM) for 6 hours. These 4 treatment conditions (A? + AE1, A? alone, AE1 alone, and vehicle alone) and 3 independent biological replicates per treatment gave us 12 total samples. After 6 hours of treatment, RNA was isolated from the microglia for microarray analysis.

Project description:Type I interferons (IFN-I) are crucial for effective antimicrobial defence in the central nervous system (CNS) but also can cause severe neurological disease (termed cerebral interferonopathy) as exemplified by Aicardi-Goutières Syndrome and chronic viral infection. In the CNS, microglia and astrocytes have essential roles in host responses to infection and injury, with both cell types responding to IFN-I. However, the extent to which the IFN-I responses of these cells differ, if at all, is still unknown. Here we determined the global transcriptional responses of astrocytes and microglia to the IFN-I, IFN-alpha. MGCs were prepared from 2–4 day-old C57BL/6 mice. Purified primary astrocytes were obtained from the MGCs by magnetic activated cell sorting using anti-CD11b beads. Microglia were obtained from mixed glial cell cultures by mechanical shaking for 4 h. After treating astrocytes and microglia with IFN-alpha for 12 h, microarray using Affymetrix mouse genome array 430 2.0 array was performed on total RNA extracted from these cells. We found that under basal conditions, each cell type has a unique gene expression pattern reflective of its developmental origin and biological function. Following stimulation with IFN-alpha for 12 h, astrocytes and microglia also displayed a common core response that was characterized by the increased expression of genes required for pathogen detection and elimination. Microglia had a more extensive and diverse response to IFN-alpha with twice the number of genes upregulated (282 vs. 141 genes) when compared with astrocytes. Validation of the findings in vivo further suggested that astrocytes and microglia play important but distinct roles in the development of IFN-alpha-driven cerebral interferonopathies.
