Activation of the pro-degenerative protein SARM1 after diverse physical and disease-relevant injuries causes programmed axon degeneration. Original studies indicate that substantially decreased SARM1 levels are required for neuroprotection. However, we demonstrate, in Sarm1 haploinsufficient mice, that lowering SARM1 levels by 50% delays programmed axon degeneration in vivo after sciatic nerve transection and partially prevents neurite outgrowth defects in mice lacking the pro-survival factor NMNAT2. In vitro, the rate of degeneration in response to traumatic, neurotoxic, and genetic triggers of SARM1 activation is also slowed. Finally, we demonstrate that Sarm1 antisense oligonucleotides decrease SARM1 levels by more than 50% in vitro, which delays or prevents programmed axon degeneration. Combining Sarm1 haploinsufficiency with antisense oligonucleotides further decreases SARM1 levels and prolongs protection after neurotoxic injury. These data demonstrate that axon protection occurs in a Sarm1 gene dose-responsive manner and that SARM1-lowering agents have therapeutic potential, making Sarm1-targeting antisense oligonucleotides a promising therapeutic strategy. SARM1-dependent axon degeneration occurs after diverse neurotoxic triggers Silencing one allele of pro-degenerative SARM1 slows programmed axon degeneration Sarm1 ASOs can mimic this, delaying axon degeneration in multiple contexts Decreasing SARM1 expression even partially may be therapeutically valuable By lowering but not completely removing the pro-degenerative protein SARM1, Gould et al. delay axon degeneration in models relevant to pain disorders, mitochondrial dysfunction, impaired protein synthesis, and NMNAT2 disruption. Using antisense oligonucleotides, they demonstrate neuroprotection without total elimination of SARM1, reinforcing the value of SARM1 as a viable therapeutic approach.
