Microglial Dysfunction and Defective β-Amyloid Clearance Pathways in Aging Alzheimer's Disease Mice
Open accessAbstract
Early microglial accumulation in Alzheimer's disease (AD) delays disease progression by promoting clearance of β-amyloid (Aβ) before formation of senile plaques. However, persistent Aβ accumulation despite increasing microglial numbers suggests that the ability of microglia to clear Aβ may decrease with age and progression of AD pathology. To determine the effects of aging and Aβ deposition on microglial ability to clear Aβ, we used quantitative PCR to analyze gene expression in freshly isolated adult microglia from 1.5-, 3-, 8-, and 14-month-old transgenic PS1-APP mice, an established mouse model of AD, and from their nontransgenic littermates. We found that microglia from old PS1-APP mice, but not from younger mice, have a twofold to fivefold decrease in expression of the Aβ-binding scavenger receptors scavenger receptor A (SRA), CD36, and RAGE (receptor for advanced-glycosylation endproducts), and the Aβ-degrading enzymes insulysin, neprilysin, and MMP9, compared with their littermate controls. In contrast, PS1-APP microglia had a 2.5-fold increase in the proinflammatory cytokines IL-1β (interleukin-1β) and tumor necrosis factor α (TNFα), suggesting that there is an inverse correlation between cytokine production and Aβ clearance. In support of this possibility, we found that incubation of cultured N9 mouse microglia with TNFα decreased the expression of SRA and CD36 and reduced Aβ uptake. Our data indicate that, although early microglial recruitment promotes Aβ clearance and is neuroprotective in AD, as disease progresses, proinflammatory cytokines produced in response to Aβ deposition downregulate genes involved in Aβ clearance and promote Aβ accumulation, therefore contributing to neurodegeneration. Antiinflammatory therapy for AD should take this dichotomous microglial role into consideration.

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.
