虽然AD病因在很大程度上仍然未知,但没有有效的策略来阻止AD的无情进展, 目前的证据表明,淀粉样蛋白-β(Aβ)(一种40/42氨基酸的肽)与早期疾病进展有关。 这种肽的折叠是如何产生作为朊病毒样病毒传播的异质组装体(菌株)的? 整个大脑的感染仍然是一个中心问题。因此,我们建议将这些机制 蛋白病性Aβ菌株的多样化和繁殖与其生化表现的关系, 人脑类器官中具有疾病病因的应变模式的结构基础。因为应变会影响 疾病病因学的致病特性,并且因为聚集的Aβ蛋白也可能支配治疗 为了更好地治疗疾病(如免疫治疗),必须在结构和功能上表征 我们现在所理解的是蛋白病Aβ传播的动态本质。在本申请中,我们 将联合收割机结合我们互补的专业领域,分析Aβ菌株的组装和繁殖, 它们对人脑类器官的影响(Z.

英文摘要
While the AD etiology remains largely unknown, with no effective strategy to arrest the relentless progression of the disease, current evidence connects amyloid-β (Aβ), a 40/42 amino acid peptide, to early disease progression. How folding of this peptide might create the heterogeneous assemblies (strains) that propagate as a prion-like infection throughout the brain remains a central question. Accordingly, we propose to connect the mechanisms of diversification and propagation of proteopathic Aβ strains to their biochemical manifestation to connect the structural foundation of strain patterns with disease etiology in human brain organoids. Because strains influence the pathogenic properties of disease etiology and because aggregated Aβ proteins may also govern therapeutic approaches to the diseases (such as immunotherapy), it is essential to structurally and functionally characterize what we now understand to be the dynamic nature of proteopathic Aβ propagons. In the current application, we will combine our complementary areas of expertise to analyze the assembly and propagation of Aβ strains with their impact in human brain organoids (Z. Wen), spectroscopic analyses of the dynamic assembly network members (D. Lynn), and with high- and low-resolution cryo-EM reconstructions (B. Liang) to define critical disease propagons. Our overarching hypothesis is that the multidimensional dynamics of Aβ assemblies define dynamic kinetic stability underlying the pathobiology of the self-perpetuating amyloid strains of AD. First, we will identify strain-specific patterns of Aβ intracellular formation and propagation to correlate the molecular foundations of structural differences among Aβ strains (Aim 1). Second, we will determine the biochemical manifestation of Aβ strains and elucidate the underlying mechanisms by which aberrant strains function in the human cortical organoid model (Aim 2). Lastly, we will delineate the molecular signatures associated with Aβ strains in human cortical organoids (Aim 3). By combining the advanced human induced pluripotent stem cell technology with comprehensive structural and functional analyses, our investigation will reveal key structural features underlying the propagation of misfolded protein aggregates in Alzheimer’s disease, allowing us ultimately to identify early neurodegenerative AD etiology targets for therapeutic intervention.
