Project description:Alzheimer's disease (AD) exhibits imbalance between neuronal excitation and inhibition, likely secondary to interneuron dysfunction. To reveal underlying mediators, we profiled the transcriptome of neuronal subtypes in 5XFAD versus control mice at early- and late-stage disease. Pooled analysis of neuron types showed expected pathways at early-stage (RNA and protein processing pathways) versus late-stage (neurodegenerative pathways) disease. Early-stage interneurons exhibited alterations in AD-related RNA and protein pathways along with canonical neurodegenerative pathways. Early-stage excitatory neurons, however, showed changes in axon guidance and synapse pathways, without representation of neurodegenerative pathways. Classical neurodegenerative pathways were represented only in late-stage excitatory neurons. Late-stage interneurons instead featured neuronal and synapse pathways along with cellular, cancer, and infection pathways. Our results suggest earlier neurodegenerative pathway involvement in interneurons, represented in excitatory neurons only at later stages, possibly indicating earlier inhibitory neuron involvement. These transcriptomic profiles offer insight into potential AD pathophysiology and therapeutic targets.

Project description:Physical activity is thought to provide clinical benefit in Parkinson’s diseas (PD). Irisin is a blood-brain barrier permeable exercise-induced polypeptide secreted by muscle that mediates, in part, the beneficial effects of exercise. Here we show that irisin prevents pathologic -synuclein (-syn) induced neurodegeneration in the -syn preformed fibril mouse model of sporadic PD. Intravenous delivery of adenoviral irisin in vivo after the stereotaxic intrastriatal injection of -syn pre-formed fibrils reduced the formation of pathologic -syn and prevented the loss of dopamine neurons and reductions in striatal dopamine. Irisin also reduced the -syn pre-formed fibril induced motor deficits as assessed by the pole test and grip strength test. Administration of recombinant irisin in primary cortical neurons prevented pathologic -syn toxicity. Tandem mass spectrometry and biochemical analysis revealed that irisin reduced pathologic -syn by enhancing endolysosomal degradation of pathologic -syn. Our findings highlight the potential for therapeutic disease modification of irisin in PD.

Project description:Alzheimer’s disease is a debilitating neurodegenerative disorder with no cure and few treatment options. In early stages of Alzheimer’s disease, impaired metabolism and functional connectivity of the retrosplenial cortex strongly predict future cognitive impairments. Therefore, understanding Alzheimer’s disease-related deficits in the retrosplenial cortex is critical for understanding the origins of cognitive impairment and identifying early treatment targets. Using the 5xFAD mouse model, we discovered early, sex-dependent alterations in parvalbumin-interneuron transcriptomic profiles. This corresponded with impaired parvalbumin-interneuron activity, which was sufficient to induce cognitive impairments and dysregulate retrosplenial functional connectivity. In fMRI scans from patients with mild cognitive impairment and Alzheimer’s disease, we observed a similar sex-dependent dysregulation of retrosplenial cortex functional connectivity and, in post-mortem tissue from subjects with Alzheimer’s disease, a loss of parvalbumin interneurons. Reversal of cognitive deficits by stimulation of parvalbumin interneurons in the retrosplenial cortex suggests that this may serve as a promising novel therapeutic strategy.

Project description:GABAergic interneuron in the cortex comprise a very heterogenous group. and it is critical to identify discrete interneuron types to understand how their contributions to behavior can be modulated by external and internal cues. However, molecular difinition of these interneuron cell groups has been difficult. Comparative analysis of different interneuron subtypes can provide us new candidate marker genes which could target more specific interneu?on cell group. Here we identify oxytocin responsive novel class of interneuron through our comparative analysis. We employed the bacTRAP strategy, which uses BAC transgenic mice expressing EGFP-tagged ribosomal protein L10a in specific cell populations, to affinity purify polysome-bound mRNAs from Nek7, Dlx1, Cort, Htr3a, Oxtr expressing cortical interneurons. We show that Oxtr expressing cells are a subtype of somatostatin positive interneurons. Three independent TRAP replicates were collected and total RNA from the immunoprecipitates or flow-through (input) whole cortex lysates were amplified and hybridized. Data were normalized with the GCRMA algorithm and replicates were averaged across conditions. We recommend filtering data to remove probe sets with normalized expression values less than 50 in at least one condition. Because the Nek7 BAC labels non-neuronal cells, we recommend to delete astrocytes and oligodendrocytes genes from the list using GSE13379 data.

Project description:Characterizing the detergent insoluble brain proteome of sporadic late-onset Alzheimer’s disease (LOAD) has identified proteins and pathways associated with disease pathogenesis. Similar studies in early onset Alzheimer’s disease cases due to presenilin-1 mutations (PS1-EOAD), along with more detailed correlations with insoluble proteomes from LOAD and AD transgenic rodents, are limited. We therefore utilized quantitative proteomics to identify proteins that were significantly changing in the PS1-EOAD insoluble proteome versus controls. Comparison with the LOAD insoluble proteome identified common pathologic AD markers in addition to unique PS1-EOAD insoluble proteins. Similarly, weighted correlation network analysis (WGCNA) identified PS1-EOAD and LOAD co-expression modules with both like and disparate expression levels. Finally, we compared the human PS1-EOAD insoluble proteome to transgenic AD mouse and rat insoluble proteomes to understand how well these models mimic the human disease. Although many common AD pathologic findings were found in the rodents, there were multiple PS1-EOAD proteome changes not well recapitulated in the animal models. These proteomic studies highlight unique PS1-EOAD proteome changes as compared to LOAD and identify limitations to using AD transgenic rodents to study some aspects of AD. This submission exclusively provides the mouse and rat model data.
