Toll‐like receptor 4 is required for α‐synuclein dependent activation of microglia and astroglia
Open accessAbstract
Alpha‐synucleinopathies (ASP) are neurodegenerative disorders, characterized by accumulation of misfolded α‐synuclein, selective neuronal loss, and extensive gliosis. It is accepted that microgliosis and astrogliosis contribute to the disease progression in ASP. Toll‐like receptors (TLRs) are expressed on cells of the innate immune system, including glia, and TLR4 dysregulation may play a role in ASP pathogenesis. In this study we aimed to define the involvement of TLR4 in microglial and astroglial activation induced by different forms of α‐synuclein (full length soluble, fibrillized, and C‐terminally truncated). Purified primary wild type (TLR4+/+) and TLR4 deficient (TLR4−/−) murine microglial and astroglial cell cultures were treated with recombinant α‐synuclein and phagocytic activity, NFκB nuclear translocation, cytokine release, and reactive oxygen species (ROS) production were measured. We show that TLR4 mediates α‐synuclein‐induced microglial phagocytic activity, pro‐inflammatory cytokine release, and ROS production. TLR4−/− astroglia present a suppressed pro‐inflammatory response and decreased ROS production triggered by α‐synuclein treatment. However, the uptake of α‐synuclein by primary astroglia is not dependent on TLR4 expression. Our results indicate the C‐terminally truncated form as the most potent inductor of TLR4‐dependent glial activation. The current findings suggest that TLR4 plays a modulatory role on glial pro‐inflammatory responses and ROS production triggered by α‐synuclein. In contrast to microglia, the uptake of alpha‐synuclein by astroglia is not dependent on TLR4. Our data provide novel insights into the mechanisms of α‐synuclein‐induced microglial and astroglial activation which may have an impact on understanding the pathogenesis of ASP. © 2012 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
