Abstract

X-linked adrenoleukodystrophy (X-ALD), caused by an ABCD1 mutation, is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder associated with the accumulation of very long-chain fatty acids (VLCFA). Cerebral inflammatory demyelination is the major feature of childhood cerebral ALD (CCALD), the most severe form of ALD, but its underlying mechanism remains poorly understood. Here, we identify the aberrant production of cholesterol 25-hydroxylase ( CH25H ) and 25-hydroxycholesterol (25-HC) in the cellular context of CCALD based on the analysis of ALD patient-derived induced pluripotent stem cells and ex vivo fibroblasts. Intriguingly, 25-HC, but not VLCFA, promotes robust NLRP3 inflammasome assembly and activation via potassium efflux-, mitochondrial reactive oxygen species (ROS)- and liver X receptor (LXR)-mediated pathways. Furthermore, stereotaxic injection of 25-HC into the corpus callosum of mouse brains induces microglial recruitment, interleukin-1β production, and oligodendrocyte cell death in an NLRP3 inflammasome-dependent manner. Collectively, our results indicate that 25-HC mediates the neuroinflammation of X-ALD via activation of the NLRP3 inflammasome.

  • Administration of 25-HC into the corpus callosum of mice induces potent proinflammatory activation of microglia, NLRP3 inflammasome-mediated neuroinflammation, IL-1β secretion, and cell death.

    “Ch25h was reported to be upregulated in patient-derived cells of X-linked adrenoleukodystrophy, and administration of 25-HC into the corpus callosum of mice induced potent proinflammatory activation of microglia, NLRP3 inflammasome-mediated neuroinflammation, interleukin 1 beta (IL-1β) secretion, and cell death (Jang et al., 2016).”
  • CH25H deficient mice have decreased inflammatory-mediated pathology and death following influenza infection, reduced immune responses following experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE), and in a mouse model of X-linked adrenoleukodystrophy (X-ALD).

    “CH25H deficient mice have also been shown to have decreased inflammatory-mediated pathology and death following influenza infection [80], reduced immune responses both following experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) [81] and in a mouse model of X-linked adrenoleukodystrophy (X-ALD) [82]”

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.
