Project description:Microglia are phagocytic cells that survey the brain and perform neuroprotective functions in response to tissue damage, but their activating receptors are largely unknown. Triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells 2 (TREM2) is a microglial immunoreceptor whose loss-of-function mutations in humans cause presenile dementia, while genetic variants are associated with increased risk of neurodegenerative diseases. In myeloid cells, TREM2 has been involved in the regulation of phagocytosis, cell proliferation and inflammatory responses in vitro. However, it is unknown how TREM2 contributes to microglia function in vivo. Here, we identify a critical role for TREM2 in the activation and function of microglia during cuprizone (CPZ)-induced demyelination. TREM2-deficient (TREM2(-/-)) mice had defective clearance of myelin debris and more axonal pathology, resulting in impaired clinical performances compared to wild-type (WT) mice. TREM2(-/-) microglia proliferated less in areas of demyelination and were less activated, displaying a more resting morphology and decreased expression of the activation markers MHC II and inducible nitric oxide synthase as compared to WT. Mechanistically, gene expression and ultrastructural analysis of microglia suggested a defect in myelin degradation and phagosome processing during CPZ intoxication in TREM2(-/-) microglia. These findings place TREM2 as a key regulator of microglia activation in vivo in response to tissue damage. Two STAGE (6weeks 12 weeks),

Project description:Apoptosis of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) is closely related to the pathogenesis of cardiovascular disease, and oxidative stress is an important cause for VSMCs death. Inhibiting VSMCs apoptosis is an effective preventive strategy in slowing down the development of cardiovascular disease, especially for atherosclerosis. In this study, we found OXR1 (oxidation resistance protein 1), a crucial participator for responding for oxidative stress, could modulate the expression of p53, a key regulator of apoptosis. Our results revealed that oxidative stress promoted VSMCs apoptosis by overexpression of OXR1-p53 axis, and 6-shogaol (6S), a major biologically active compound present in ginger, could effectively attenuate cell death by preventing the up-regulated expression of OXR1-p53 axis. Quantitative proteomics analysis revealed that the degradation of p53 mediated by OXR1 might related with the enhanced assembly of SCF ubiquitin ligase complexes, which is reported to closely relate with the modification of ubiquitination or neddylation, and subsequent degradation of p53.

Project description:Triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cell 2 (TREM2) is linked to neurodegenerative disease risk. However, the function of TREM in neurodegeneration is still unclear. Here we investigated the role of microglial TREM2 in TAR-DNA binding protein 43 kDa (TDP-43)-related neurodegeneration using viral-mediated and transgenic mouse models. We found that TREM2 deficiency impaired phagocytic clearance of pathological TDP-43 by microglia, and enhanced neuronal damage and motor impairments. Mass cytometry analysis revealed that hTDP-43 induced a TREM2-dependent subpopulation of microglia with high CD11c expression and phagocytic ability. Using mass spectrometry and surface plasmon resonance analysis, we further demonstrated an interaction between TDP-43 and TREM2 in vitro and in vivo as well as in ALS patient tissues. We computationally identified the region within hTDP-43 that interacts with TREM2. Our data highlights that TDP-43 is a possible ligand for microglial TREM2 and that this interaction mediates neuroprotection effects of microglia in TDP-43-related neurodegeneration.

Project description:The heat-shock protein 90 (HSP90) is a promising target in cancer therapy, but its inhibitors' clinical trial failures are partly due to a compensatory heat-shock response (HSR) mediated by heat-shock factor 1 (HSF1). We previously showed that wildtype p53 reduces HSR by repressing HSF1 via a p21-CDK4/6-MAPK-HSF1 axis. Here, we explore if simultaneous p53 activation or cell cycle inhibition can disrupt the HSF1-HSR axis and enhance HSP90 inhibitors' efficiency. mRNA sequencing was performed on HCT116 cells treated for 24 hours with DMSO, 50 nM Ganetespib, 1 µM RG-7388, or their combination. We found that the p53 activator Idasanutlin suppresses HSF1-HSR activity in HSP90 inhibitor-based therapies, synergistically reducing cell viability and accelerating cell death in p53-proficient colorectal cancer (CRC) cells and organoids. Combination therapy upregulates p53 pathways, apoptosis, and inflammation. In a CRC mouse model, dual HSF1-HSP90 inhibition represses tumor growth and alters immune cell composition. CDK4/6 inhibition under HSP90 inhibition mimics HSR repression in p53-proficient CRC cells. In p53-deficient CRC cells and p53-mutated organoids, combined HSP90 and CDK4/6 inhibition suppresses HSF1-HSR and reduces cancer growth, offering a p53-independent strategy for CRC treatment. In conclusion, we present new options to improve HSP90-based therapies for enhanced CRC treatment.

Project description:Late-onset Alzheimer’s disease is the most common form of dementia. A rare hemizygous variant in a microglial-expressed gene, Triggering Receptor Expressed on Myeloid Cells 2 (TREM2), significantly increases risk for late-onset Alzheimer’s disease. This variant is thought to cause loss of function, inducing TREM2 haploinsufficiency. The ramifications of TREM2 haploinsufficiency on microglial function and tau pathology are major gaps in the field. We find that in contrast to the protective effects of complete TREM2 deficiency, TREM2 haploinsufficiency exacerbates tau pathology, inflammation, and atrophy at a late stage of disease in a mouse model of tauopathy. The differential effects of partial and complete loss of TREM2 are important considerations for TREM2-targeted therapeutic strategies.

Project description:Alzheimer's disease (AD), the most common form of dementia, is characterized by the abnormal accumulation of amyloid plaques and hyperphosphorylated tau aggregates, as well as microgliosis. The link between mutations in Triggering Receptor Expressed on Myeloid Cells 2 (TREM2), a microglia-expressed gene, and the increased risk for developing late-onset AD suggests a detrimental role for microglia in disease pathophyioslogy. Hemizygous TREM2 mutations are posited to increase risk for AD through loss-of-function haploinsufficiency. The effects of TREM2 haploinsufficiency on tau pathology and tau-associated deficits have not yet been characterized. Using in vivo imaging, we showed that TREM2 haploinsufficiency, but not complete loss of TREM2, resulted in a striking agedependent impairment in microglia’s response to injury without affecting baseline motility. This TREM2-dependent effect on microglial motility is consistent with transcriptomic alterations in cell motility uncovered with unbiased RNAsequencing analysis. Moreover, TREM2 haploinsufficiency, but not complete loss of TREM2, exacerbated phosphorylated tau pathology in transgenic mice expressing mutant human tau. In addition, TREM2 haploinsufficiency increased tau inclusions and tau-mediated inflammation without further exacerbating neuronal loss. Our findings demonstrate for the first time that TREM2 haploinsufficiency induces deficits in a tauopathy mouse model, supporting the notion that the hemizygous missense variant results in loss-of-function.
