Project description:In this study, we aimed to deplete the aging microglia and investigate the impact of the newly-born microglia in Alzheimer's pathology using the 3xTg mouse model. Specifically, >24 mo male 3xTg mice were given chow containing 1200mg/kg PLX5622 (AIN-76A-D1001i, Research Diests, NJ, USA) for 2 weeks to deplete their microglia. Control diet with the same base formula were given to control group and to experimental groups during a 4-week repopulation phase immediately following PLX treatment. At the end of the repopulation, we pooled sorted, viable microglia (CD45int CD11b) from 3-5 mice/group and ran single-cell RNAseq analysis to determine the similarities and differences between the aged and repopulated cells in the context of Alzheimer's Disease. We also included non-transgenic controls as a separate group.

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.

Project description:Isolation of glia from Alzheimer's mice reveals inflammation and dysfunction. Reactive astrocytes and microglia are associated with amyloid plaques in Alzheimer's disease (AD). Yet, not much is known about the molecular alterations underlying this reactive phenotype. To get an insight into the molecular changes underlying AD induced astrocyte and microglia reactivity, we performed a transcriptional analysis on acutely isolated astrocytes and microglia from the cortex of aged controls and APPswe/PS1dE9 AD mice. As expected, both cell types acquired a proinflammatory phenotype, which confirms the validity of our approach. Interestingly, we observed that the immune alteration in astrocytes was relatively more pronounced than in microglia. Concurrently, our data reveal that astrocytes display a reduced expression of neuronal support genes and genes involved in neuronal communication. The microglia showed a reduced expression of phagocytosis and/or endocytosis genes. Co-expression analysis of a human AD expression data set and the astrocyte and microglia data sets revealed that the inflammatory changes in astrocytes were remarkably comparable in mouse and human AD, whereas the microglia changes showed less similarity. Based on these findings we argue that chronically proinflammatory astrocyte and microglia phenotypes, showing a reduction of genes involved in neuronal support and neuronal signaling, are likely to contribute to the neuronal dysfunction and cognitive decline in AD. 2 cell types from 2 conditions: cortical microglia and cortical astrocytes from 15-18 month old APPswe/PS1dE9 mice compared to wildtype littermates.

Project description:During early embryogenesis microglia arise from yolk sac progenitors populating the developing CNS, where they are maintained as tissue-resident macrophages throughout the organism’s lifespan. Here, we describe an experimental system that allows the specific conditional ablation of microglia in vivo. Strikingly, we found that the microglia compartment was reconstituted within one week following depletion. Microglia repopulation relied entirely on a CNS-resident, internal pool and was independent from bone marrow-derived precursors. Newly formed microglia were found in highly proliferative, organized micro-clusters that dissolve once steady state was achieved. Gene expression profiling revealed prominent expression of Interleukin-1 (IL-1) receptor in proliferating microglia. During the repopulation phase, IL-1 signaling was neutralized by treatment with IL-1 receptor antagonist that impaired microglia proliferation. Hence, microglia harbor a highly efficient potential to restore themselves without contribution of peripheral myeloid cells. IL-1 signaling significantly participates in this restorative proliferation process and is involved in stabilizing microglia maintenance. bone marrow macrophages, wild type microglia, and repopulating microglia

Project description:Neuroimmunity is present as an important mechanism in the brains of Alzheimer's patients, and microglia are a key component of the brain's innate immune response during the development and progression of Alzheimer's disease. The interferon pathway plays an important role in the pathophysiologic mechanisms of AD. RNA-seq was performed on LPS-treated microglia(LPS) and untreated microglia(WT) to further explore.

Project description:Over the past decade, genetic evidence has demonstrated that microglial dysregulation is likely to play a central role in the development of Alzheimer's disease (AD). As resident immune cells in the brain, microglia become dystrophic and senescent during the chronic progression of AD. To explore whether replenishing the brain with new microglia is beneficial to AD, we employed a CSF1R inhibitor PLX3397 to deplete microglia and induce repopulation after the inhibitor withdrawal in 5xFAD transgenic mice. We observed that microglial repopulation ameliorates AD-associated cognitive deficits, accompanied by elevation of synaptic proteins and hippocampal long-term potentiation (LTP). In addition, microglial morphology is restored after microglial self-renewal, and amyloid pathology is reduced with long-term repopulation but not short-term. Transcriptome analysis showed that repopulating microglia in 5xFAD mice recovers a gene expression profile that is highly similar to microglia from WT mice. Notably, the neurotrophic signaling pathway and hippocampal neurogenesis dysregulated in the AD brain are restored after microglial replenishment. At last, we confirmed that microglial repopulation rescues brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) expression to contribute to synaptic plasticity. Together, we conclude that microglial self-renewal benefits AD brain by restoring the BDNF neurotrophic signaling pathway. Thus, the proper replenishment of microglia may be an effective and novel therapeutic strategy for ameliorating cognition impairment in AD.

Project description:GFAP and vimentin deficiency alters gene expression in astrocytes and microglia in wild-type mice and changes the transcriptional response of reactive glia in mouse model for Alzheimer's disease. Reactive astrocytes with an increased expression of intermediate filament (IF) proteins Glial Fibrillary Acidic Protein (GFAP) and Vimentin (VIM) surround amyloid plaques in Alzheimer's disease (AD). The functional consequences of this upregulation are unclear. To identify molecular pathways coupled to IF regulation in reactive astrocytes, and to study the interaction with microglia, we examined WT and APPswe/PS1dE9 (AD) mice lacking either GFAP, or both VIM and GFAP, and determined the transcriptome of cortical astrocytes and microglia from 15- to 18-month-old mice. Genes involved in lysosomal degradation (including several cathepsins) and in inflammatory response (including Cxcl5, Tlr6, Tnf, Il1b) exhibited a higher AD-induced increase when GFAP, or VIM and GFAP, were absent. The expression of Aqp4 and Gja1 displayed the same pattern. The downregulation of neuronal support genes in astrocytes from AD mice was absent in GFAP/VIM null mice. In contrast, the absence of IFs did not affect the transcriptional alterations induced by AD in microglia, nor was the cortical plaque load altered. Visualizing astrocyte morphology in GFAP-eGFP mice showed no clear structural differences in GFAP/VIM null mice, but did show diminished interaction of astrocyte processes with plaques. Microglial proliferation increased similarly in all AD groups. In conclusion, absence of GFAP, or both GFAP and VIM, alters AD-induced changes in gene expression profile of astrocytes, showing a compensation of the decrease of neuronal support genes and a trend for a slightly higher inflammatory expression profile. However, this has no consequences for the development of plaque load, microglial proliferation, or microglial activation. 2 cell types from 6 conditions: cortical microglia and cortical astrocytes from 15-18 month old APPswe/PS1dE9 mice compared to wildtype littermates.
