Project description:To address the question of whether γ-secretase deficiency affects the tonic signaling in microglia in vivo as well, we analyzed the single-cell transcriptomes of the γ-secretase deficient microglia from WT and AD mouse models at 3 ,6 and 7 months of age. Like the in vitro observations, genetic knockout of γ-secretase induced mild changes to the transcriptomes of in vivo microglia in the WT mice and also AD mice at 3 months. However, The relative proportions of DAM, CRM and TRM were significantly reduced in AppNL-G-F-GSiΔMG mice compared to AppNL-G-F-GSWT mice at 7 months, whereas HM and tCRM were significantly increased. Thus γ-secretase has a crucial role in the microglial transition from the homeostatic to the full DAM phenotype in AD.

Project description:Microglia are resident immune cells of the brain and regulate its inflammatory state. In neurodegenerative diseases, microglia transition from a homeostatic state to a state referred to as disease associated microglia (DAM). DAM express higher levels of proinflammatory signaling molecules, like STAT1 and TLR2, and show transitions in mitochondrial activity toward a more glycolytic response. Inhibition of Kv1.3 decreases the proinflammatory signature of DAM, though how Kv1.3 influences the response is unknown. Our goal was to establish the potential proteins interacting with Kv1.3 during transition to DAM. We utilized TurboID, a biotin ligase, fused to Kv1.3 to evaluate the potential interacting proteins with Kv1.3 via mass spectrometry in BV-2 microglia following TLR4-mediated activation. Electrophysiology, western blotting, and flow cytometry were used to evaluate Kv1.3 channel presence and TurboID biotinylation activity. We hypothesized that Kv1.3 contains domain-specific interactors that vary during a TLR4-induced inflammatory response, some of which are dependent on the PDZ-binding domain on the C-terminus. We determined that the N-terminus of Kv1.3 is responsible for trafficking Kv1.3 to the cell surface and mitochondria (e.g. NUNDC, TIMM50). Whereas, the C-terminus interacts with immune signaling proteins in an LPS-induced inflammatory response (e.g. STAT1, TLR2, and C3). There are 70 proteins that rely on the C-terminal PDZ-binding domain to interact with Kv1.3 (e.g. ND3, Snx3, and Sun1). Overall, we highlight that the Kv1.3 potassium channel functions beyond conducting the outward flux of potassium ions in an inflammatory context and that KV1.3 modulates activity of key immune signaling proteins, such as STAT1 and C3

Project description:Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is an under-recognizedpublic healththreat. Even mild brain injuries can lead to long-term neurologic impairment.Microgliaplay a fundamental role in the development and progression of this ensuing neurologic impairment. Despite this, a microglia-specific injury signature has yet to be identified. We hypothesized that TBI would lead to long-term changes in the transcriptional profile of microglial pathways associated with the development of subsequent neurologic impairment.

Project description:Microglia are essential to maintain brain homeostasis, but when dysregulated, exert pathogenic functions in Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Recent evidence has implicated senescent/dystrophic microglia in the pathological process of AD. Whether microglial senescence is a cause or consequence of AD pathogenesis however is unclear. Here we report that autophagy, a lysosomal degradation pathway, restricts cellular senescence of microglia and confer neuroprotection in AD mouse model. Autophagy-deficient microglia show hallmarks of cellular senescence evidenced by reduced proliferation, increased Cdkn1a/p21Cip, dystrophy, and typical secretory phenotype. While disease-associated microglia (DAM) surrounding amyloid plaques exhibit heightened autophagy, autophagy deficient, senescent microglia (SAM) disengage from and thus fail to limit the diffusive amyloid plaques, causing enhanced tau phosphorylation and neurotoxicity in AD model. Treatment of senolytic drugs removes senescent microglia and alleviates neuropathology. Our study demonstrates a causal role of autophagy impairment in microglial senescence and neurotoxicity and suggests therapeutic potential of senolytic treatment for AD.

Project description:Microglia have important remodeling functions in development and disease. There is evidence for molecular diversity of microglia suggesting they may exist in distinct functional states to differentially impact CNS health and function. To better understand this in development, we profiled microglia of a discrete developing CNS region, the murine retina. We find that retinal microglia transition through unique transcriptional states and identify a population with peak density postnatally that resemble adult disease-associated microglia (DAM) and CD11c+ microglia of developing white matter, we term DAM-like. Developmental cell death is a major driver of the DAM-like phenotype, and TREM2 signaling is required for select DAM gene expression. Notably, DAM-like cells that highly express CD11c are not dependent on CSF1R signaling for survival, and TREM2 signaling is required for CSF1R independence in a subset of microglia. Thus, microglial phenotype in development is influenced by local developmental events and may share features with microglia in disease.

Project description:Microglia are resident myeloid cells of the central nervous system (CNS). Recently, single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNAseq) has enabled description of a disease-associated subtype of microglia (DAM) with a role in neurodegeneration and demyelination. In this study we use scRNAseq to investigate the temporal dynamics of immune cells harvested from the epicenter of traumatic spinal cord injury (SCI). As a consequence of SCI, homeostatic microglia undergo permanent transcriptional re-programming into a subtype of microglia with striking similarities to previoysly reported DAM as well as a distinct microglial state found during development. Using a microglia depletion model we showed that DAM in SCI are derived from homeostatic microglia and strongly enhance recovery of hind limb locomotor function following injury.

Project description:Microglial reactivity to injury and disease is emerging as a heterogeneous, dynamic, and crucial determinant in neurological disorders. However, the plasticity and ultimate fate of disease-associated microglia (DAM) remains largely unknown. We established a lineage tracing system, leveraging the expression dynamics of Spp1, which allows for genetic labeling of DAM-like microglia and tracking their behavior during brain injury and recovery. Fate-mapping of Spp1+ microglia in juvenile stroke revealed an irreversible state of reactive microglia that are ultimately eliminated from the injured brain. In contrast, DAM-like microglia in the neonatal context exhibit high plasticity, capable of regaining a homeostatic signature and integrating into the global microglial network after recovery. Furthermore, neonatal injury has a lasting impact on microglia, rendering them intrinsically sensitized to subsequent immune challenges. Therefore, by unraveling the fate of DAM-like microglia in various neuropathological conditions, our work highlights the exceptional plasticity and innate immune memory of neonatal microglia.

Project description:Genetic studies have highlighted microglia as pivotal in orchestrating Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Microglia that adhere to Aβ plaques acquire a transcriptional signature, “diseaseassociated microglia” (DAM), which largely emanates from the TREM2-DAP12 receptor complex that transmits intracellular signals through the protein tyrosine kinase SYK. The human TREM2R47H variant associated with high AD risk fails to activate microglia via SYK. We found that SYK-deficient microglia cannot encase Aβ plaques, accelerating brain pathology and behavioral deficits. SYK deficiency impaired the PI3K-AKT-GSK3β-mTOR pathway, incapacitating anabolic support required for attaining the DAM profile. However, SYK-deficient microglia proliferated and advanced to an Apoe-expressing prodromal stage of DAM; this pathway relied on the adaptor DAP10, which also binds TREM2. Thus, microglial responses to Aβ involve non-redundant SYK- and DAP10-pathways. Systemic administration of an antibody against CLEC7A, a receptor that directly activates SYK, rescued microglia activation in mice expressing the TREM2R47H allele, unveiling new options for AD immunotherapy.

Project description:Preparation of primary microglial cultures from postnatal mice is tedious with a low yield, high variability and risk of astrocytic contamination. Microglia derived from embryonic stem cells (ESdM) have been suggested as alternative source, but it is unclear how closely ESdM resemble the molecular phenotype of primary microglia. Here, we performed a whole transcriptome analysis of ESdM in comparison to primary cultured and flow cytometry-sorted microglia and compared the microglial transcriptome to other cell types. Cultured microglia and ESdM were related to sorted microglia, but clearly distinct from other myeloid cell types, T cells, astrocytes and neurons. ESdM and primary cultured microglia showed strong overlap in their transcriptome. Only 144 gene transcripts were differentially expressed between both cell types, mainly derived from immune-related genes with a higher activation status of pro-inflammatory and immune defense genes in primary microglia compared to ESdM. Flow cytometry analysis of cell surface markers CD54, CD74 and CD274 selected from the microarray confirmed the close phenotypic relation between ESdM and primary cultured microglia. Thus, assessment of genome-wide transcriptional regulation demonstrates that microglia are distinct from other macrophage cell types and that mouse pluripotent stem cell-derived microglia are closely related to cultured postnatal microglia. Comparison of different primary neuronal cells with ES-cell derived microglial cells
