Sex-specific effects of microbiome perturbations on cerebral Aβ amyloidosis and microglia phenotypes
Open accessAbstract
We demonstrated that an antibiotic cocktail (ABX)-perturbed gut microbiome is associated with reduced amyloid-β (Aβ) plaque pathology and astrogliosis in the male amyloid precursor protein (APP)SWE/presenilin 1 (PS1)ΔE9 transgenic model of Aβ amyloidosis. We now show that in an independent, aggressive APPSWE/PS1L166P (APPPS1-21) mouse model of Aβ amyloidosis, an ABX-perturbed gut microbiome is associated with a reduction in Aβ pathology and alterations in microglial morphology, thus establishing the generality of the phenomenon. Most importantly, these latter alterations occur only in brains of male mice, not in the brains of female mice. Furthermore, ABX treatment lead to alterations in levels of selected microglial expressed transcripts indicative of the “M0” homeostatic state in male but not in female mice. Finally, we found that transplants of fecal microbiota from age-matched APPPS1-21 male mice into ABX-treated APPPS1-21 male restores the gut microbiome and partially restores Aβ pathology and microglial morphology, thus demonstrating a causal role of the microbiome in the modulation of Aβ amyloidosis and microglial physiology in mouse models of Aβ amyloidosis.

Sex-specific differences have been noted, with female AD mouse models showing more pronounced microbiota-driven amyloid deposition and microglial activation compared to males.
“Moreover, sex-specific differences have been noted, with female AD mouse models showing more pronounced microbiota-driven amyloid deposition and microglial activation compared to males140.”

The Results section (‘Longer-term ABX treatment results in reduced Aβ deposition only in male APPPS1-21 mice’; page unavailable) reports that microbiome perturbation reduced amyloid burden in males, not females. The Results section on plaque-localized microglia says females had a phagocytic phenotype, but it was independent of antibiotic treatment; microglial morphology changed with treatment in males. The paper therefore does not find a more pronounced microbiota-driven response in females. (LLM, conf=0.91)

These data are consistent with the association of microbiome perturbations induced by antibiotics with neuropathological measures in male mice overexpressing hAPP with the Swedish mutation and presenilin 1, and the ability of transplants of fecal microbiota of genotype- and age-matched male mice to partially restore neuropathology.

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.
