Project description:Microglia and monocyte-derived macrophages (MDM) are key players in coping with Alzheimer's disease (AD). In amyloidosis mouse models, activation of microglia was found to be TREM2-dependent. Here, using Trem2-/-5xFAD mice, we assessed whether MDM act via a TREM2-dependent pathway. We adopted a treatment protocol targeting the programmed cell death ligand-1 (PD-L1) immune checkpoint, previously shown to modify AD via MDM involvement. Blocking PD-L1 in Trem2-/-5xFAD mice resulted in cognitive improvement and reduced levels of water-soluble amyloid beta (Aβ)1-42 with no effect on amyloid plaque burden. Single-cell RNA sequencing revealed that MDM, derived from both Trem2-/- and Trem2+/+5xFAD mouse brains, express a unique set of genes encoding scavenger receptors (e.g. Mrc1, Msr1). Blocking monocytes trafficking using anti-CCR2 antibody completely abrogated the cognitive improvement induced by anti-PD-L1 in Trem2-/-5xFAD mice, and similarly but to lower extent in Trem2+/+5xFAD mice. These results highlight a TREM2-independent disease-modifying activity of MDM in amyloidosis mouse model.

Project description:TREM2 is a receptor for lipids expressed in microglia. The R47H variant of human TREM2 impairs ligand binding and increases Alzheimer’s Disease (AD) risk. In mouse models of amyloid b (Ab) accumulation, defective TREM2 function affects microglial response to Ab plaques exacerbating tissue damage, whereas TREM2 overexpression attenuates pathology. Thus, AD may benefit from TREM2 activation. Here, we examined the impact of an anti-human TREM2 agonistic mAb, AL002c, in a mouse AD model expressing either the common variant (CV) or the R47H variant of TREM2. Single cell RNA-seq of microglia after acute systemic administration of AL002c showed induction of proliferation in both CV- and R47H-transgenic mice. Prolonged administration of AL002c reduced filamentous plaques and neurite dystrophy, impacted behavior and tempered glial inflammatory response. We further showed that a variant of AL002c has been given safely in a first-in-human phase I clinical trial and engages TREM2 based on CSF biomarkers. We conclude that AL002c is a promising candidate for AD therapy.

Project description:GRN haploinsufficiency causes frontotemporal lobar degeneration and results in microglial hyperactivation, lysosomal dysfunction and TDP-43 deposition. To understand the contribution of microglial hyperactivation to pathology we evaluated genetic and pharmacological approaches suppressing TREM2 dependent transition of microglia from a homeostatic to a disease associated state. Trem2 deficiency in Grn KO mice led to a reduction of microglia activation. To explore antibody-mediated pharmacological modulation of TREM2-dependent microglial states, we identified antagonistic TREM2 antibodies. Treatment of macrophages from GRN-FTLD patients with these antibodies allowed a complete rescue of elevated levels of TREM2 together with increased shedding and reduction of TREM2 signaling. Furthermore, antibody-treated PGRN deficient hiMGL showed dampened microglial hyperactivation, reduced TREM2 signaling and phagocytic activity, however, lack of rescue of lysosomal dysfunction. Similarly, lysosomal dysfunction, lipid dysregulation and glucose hypometabolism of Grn KO mice were not rescued by TREM2 ablation. Furthermore, NfL, a biomarker for neurodegeneration, was elevated in the Grn/Trem2 KO. These findings suggest that microglia hyperactivation is not necessarily contributing to neurotoxicity, and instead demonstrates that TREM2 exhibits neuroprotective potential in this model.

Project description:CD33-/- and/or TREM2-/- mice were crossed with the 5xFAD mouse model of Alzheimer’s disease to generate single and double CD33/TREM2 knock-out mice on 5xFAD background. Transcriptome and gene expression analyses were performed to analyze the impact of CD33 and/or TREM2 knock-out on the transcriptome of microglia in the context of amyloid pathology. The results revealed that CD33 and/or TREM2 knock-out reprogrammed microglial gene expression signatures in 5xFAD mice in an age-dependent manner. Differential gene expression in 5xFAD;CD33-/- microglia depended on the presence of TREM2. These data suggest that TREM2 acts downstream of CD33.

Project description:Triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells 2 (TREM2) sustains microglia response to brain injury stimuli including apoptotic cells, myelin damage, and amyloid β (Aβ). Alzheimer’s Disease (AD) risk is associated with the TREM2R47H variant, which impairs ligand binding and consequently microglia responses to Aβ pathology. Here we tested whether TREM2 engagement by an agonistic mAb, hT2AB, designated as a surrogate ligand facilitates microglia responses in 5XFAD transgenic mice that accumulate Aβ and express either the common TREM2 variant (TREM2CV) or TREM2R47H. scRNA-seq of microglia from TREM2CV-5XFAD mice treated once with control IgG exposed trajectories representative of activated microglial populations including disease-associated microglia (DAM), interferon-responsive (IFN-R), cycling (Cyc-M), and MHC-II expressing (MHC-II) microglia. All of these were underrepresented in TREM2R47H-5XFAD mice, suggesting that TREM2 ligand engagement is required for microglia transitions. Moreover, Cyc-M and IFN-R microglia were better represented in female than male TREM2CV-5XFAD mice, likely reflecting a greater Aβ load in female 5XFAD mice. A single systemic injection of hT2AB replenished the Cyc-M, IFN-R, and MHC-II pools in TREM2R47H-5XFAD mice. In TREM2CV-5XFAD mice, however, hT2AB brought the representation of male Cyc-M and IFN-R microglia closer to that of females, in which microglia transitions in response to Aβ had already reached their peak. Repeated treatment with a murinized version mT2AB over a 10 days period increased brain content of chemokines in TREM2R47H-5XFAD mice, consistent with microglia expansion and shifts in gene expression patterns. Thus, the impact of hT2AB on microglia responses is shaped by the extent of TREM2 endogenous ligand engagement and basal microglia activation.
