Abstract

Human G protein‐coupled formyl peptide receptor like 1 (FPRL1) and its mouse homologue murine formyl peptide receptor 2 (mFPR2) mediate the chemotactic activity of amyloid β 1–42 (Aβ 42 ), a key pathogenic peptide in Alzheimer's disease (AD). Since mFPR2 is up‐regulated in mouse microglia by lipopolysaccharide (LPS), a Toll‐like receptor 4 ligand, we investigated the capacity of CpG‐containing oligodeoxynucleotide (ODN), a Toll‐like receptor (TLR) 9 ligand, to regulate the expression of mFPR2 in mouse microglia. CpG ODN markedly enhanced the expression and function of mFPR2 in microglial cells, which exhibited increased chemotactic responses to mFPR2 agonists, including Aβ 42 . The effect of CpG ODN is dependent on activation of p38 MAPK. Further studies showed that CpG ODN‐treated microglia increased their capacity to endocytose Aβ 42 through mFPR2, as this process was abrogated by pertussis toxin, a Gi protein inhibitor, and W peptide, another potent mFPR2 agonist. Our results suggest that TLR9 may play an important role in promoting microglial recognition of Aβ 42 , thus affecting the pathogenic process of AD.

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.
