Extracellular vesicles from amyloid-β exposed cell cultures induce severe dysfunction in cortical neurons
Open accessAbstract
Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is characterized by a substantial loss of neurons and synapses throughout the brain. The exact mechanism behind the neurodegeneration is still unclear, but recent data suggests that spreading of amyloid-β (Aβ) pathology via extracellular vesicles (EVs) may contribute to disease progression. We have previously shown that an incomplete degradation of Aβ 42 protofibrils by astrocytes results in the release of EVs containing neurotoxic Aβ. Here, we describe the cellular mechanisms behind EV-associated neurotoxicity in detail. EVs were isolated from untreated and Aβ 42 protofibril exposed neuroglial co-cultures, consisting mainly of astrocytes. The EVs were added to cortical neurons for 2 or 4 days and the neurodegenerative processes were followed with immunocytochemistry, time-lapse imaging and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Addition of EVs from Aβ 42 protofibril exposed co-cultures resulted in synaptic loss, severe mitochondrial impairment and apoptosis. TEM analysis demonstrated that the EVs induced axonal swelling and vacuolization of the neuronal cell bodies. Interestingly, EV exposed neurons also displayed pathological lamellar bodies of cholesterol deposits in lysosomal compartments. Taken together, our data show that the secretion of EVs from Aβ exposed cells induces neuronal dysfunction in several ways, indicating a central role for EVs in the progression of Aβ-induced pathology.

The concentrations of αSYN-F and Aβ-F used were selected based on previous studies.
“The concentrations were selected based on our previous studies [11, 12, 23, 28, 29].”
From Crosstalk between astrocytes and microglia results in increased degradation of α-synuclein and amyloid-β aggregates (2021) · cites this paper as [28]
The Materials and methods sections report a 0.1 µM Aβ42 protofibril exposure and say the protofibrils were prepared using a previously established protocol (page not available in our copy). This supports a connection to prior Aβ work, but the paper does not say that the exposure concentration was selected on that basis and does not address αSYN-F concentrations. (LLM, conf=0.78)

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.
