Project description:Activation of the NLRP3 inflammasome has been implicated in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer’s disease (AD), via the characterised release of IL-1β and ASC specks. However, whether NLRP3 was involved in pathways beyond this remained unknown. Here were enriched CD11b+ cells from the brains of 4, 6 an 12 month old wild-type, NLRP3-/-, APP/PS1 and APP/PS1.NLRP3-/- mice for bulk RNA sequencing. We found that amyloid deposition was associated with an increase in the expression of genes encoding inflammatory or phagocytic proteins from 6 months onwards. Interestingly, loss of NLRP3 influences glutamine/glutamate-related metabolism and increases expression of microglial Slc1a3. The increase in Slc1a3 was observed in all mice on a NLRP3-/- background and at all ages examined, demonstrating a new role for this transporter in microglia.

Project description:NLRP3 inflammasome activation is involved in the progression of Alzheimer's disease. To unravel the unique cell populations and clusters regulated by NLRP3 in the brain, we enriched CD11b+ cells from the brains of 18 month old wild-type, NLRP3-/-, APP/PS1 and APP/PS1.NLRP3-/- mice for single cell RNAseq.

Project description:To examine the regulation of microglia by N-AS-triggered SPMs, we analyzed the gene expression patterns of microglia derived from WT, APP/PS1, and N-AS-injected APP/PS1 mice using RNAseq. These results indicated that N-AS-triggered SPMs activated an anti-inflammatory, positive immune response, and enhanced the phagocytic abilities of microglia in N-AS-treated APP/PS1 mice, leading to resolution of neuroinflammation and upregulation of phagocytic microglia in this AD animal model.

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.

Project description:RNA samples from the cerebral cortex of APP/PS1 and WT mouse littermates aged 3, 6 and 12 months were analyzed using the Affymetrix Genechip Mouse Gene 1.1 ST Array. The APP-PS1 transgenic mouse express the human mutated forms APPswe and PS1dE9. This is a good model of familial Alzheimer Disease because it reproduces several features of the disease as β-amyloid deposits throughout the brain and exhibit memory impairment by the end of the sixth month and is a simple model to study the molecular pathways. The aim of this study is to identify dysregulation of inflammation pathways in order to understand shifts of inflammation responses with disease progression.

Project description:To identify the differentially expressed genes in the brain of WT mice in comparison with 9-month-old APP/PS1 mice, we examined the microarray gene expression profile of the groups above. Neuroinflammation is well implicated in the progression of Alzheimer’s Disease (AD) now. What’ more, neuroinflammation is supposed to be one of the essential trigger to induce neurodegeneration. In this study, we examined the differentially expressed genes (including coding transcripts and lncRNA) between the wild type (WT) mouse and a AD model, the APP/PS1 mouse. We found that, among all these P2XR family genes, P2X7R is not only the most abundant expressed, but also identified as the highest upregulated gene. The elevated P2X7R expression promotes neuroinflammation through activation of NLRP3 inflammsome, and further mediate one kind of inflammatory cell death, pyroptosis. Blockade of P2X7R could not only inhibit pyroptosis, but also could mildly alleviate cognitive deficits in APP/PS1 mice. Our study provides new insight into an alternative strategy for the development of AD therapy.

Project description:The etiology of Alzheimer's disease (AD) has been intensively studied. However, little is known about the molecular alterations in early-stage and late-stage AD. Hence, we performed RNA sequencing and assessed differentially expressed genes (DEGs) in the hippocampus of 18-month and 7-month-old APP/PS1 mice. Moreover, the DEGs induced by treatment with nicotine, the nicotinic acetylcholine receptor agonist that is known to improve cognition in AD, were also analyzed in old and young APP/PS1 mice. When comparing old APP/PS1 mice with their younger littermates, we found an upregulation in genes associated with calcium overload, immune response, cancer, and synaptic function; the transcripts of 14 calcium ion channel subtypes were significantly increased in aged mice. In contrast, the downregulated genes in aged mice were associated with ribosomal components, mitochondrial respiratory chain complex, and metabolism. Through comparison with DEGs in normal aging from previous reports, we found that changes in calcium channel genes remained one of the prominent features in aged APP/PS1 mice. Nicotine treatment also induced changes in gene expression. Indeed, nicotine augmented glycerolipid metabolism, but inhibited PI3K and MAPK signaling in young mice. In contrast, nicotine affected genes associated with cell senescence and death in old mice. Our study suggests a potential network connection between calcium overload and cellular signaling, in which additional nicotinic activation might not be beneficial in late-stage AD
