项目摘要

Abstract: Alzheimer’s Disease (AD) is a debilitating conditioned marked by accumulation of Ab and hyperphosphorylation of tau proteins thought to lead to neurodegeneration and cognitive decline. It has been hypothesized that Ab accumulation and tauopathy might result in damage to blood vessels that make up the blood brain barrier (BBB), which is estimated to contribute to ~50% of all dementias worldwide, including AD. Such BBB damage is thought to result in disease pathogenesis by increasing brain permeability and peripheral immune infiltration. Animal models of AD-related pathology, which rely on the overexpression or knock-in of established genetic mutations, have confirmed that the accumulation of Aβ and tau does indeed result in blood vessel abnormalities and blood- brain barrier (BBB) breakdown (Fig 1), which is associated with behavioral symptoms including cognitive dysfunction. In addition to cognitive decline, many AD patients also experience severe neuropsychiatric symptoms such as depression and anxiety. While the mechanisms of comorbid neuropsychiatric symptoms with AD are not well known, we have shown that chronic stress—a known risk factor for AD in humans—can in fact damage the BBB. Under the parent R01MH104559, my lab has been investigating whether pro-inflammatory cytokines such as interleukin 6 (IL-6) or immune cells themselves may diffuse more readily into the brain of stressed mice due to vascular damage. We have found that stress reduces expression of the tight junction protein claudin 5 (CLDN5) and leads to breakdown of the endothelial barrier allowing greater entry of IL-6 directly into brain reward regions like the nucleus accumbens (NAc) to impair social behavior and responses to natural rewards [15]. Interestingly, genetic mouse models of AD-related pathology confirm that they are indeed more sensitive to the behavioral effects of stress and exhibit age-related degeneration of the BBB, which leads to increased permeability. In this supplement we will examine the effects of chronic social stress on BBB integrity and stress-induced behaviors in well-established mouse models of AD-related pathology.

抽象的：阿尔茨海默病 (AD) 是一种以抗体积累和过度磷酸化为特征的衰弱性疾病 tau 蛋白被认为会导致神经退行性变和认知能力下降。据推测，Ab 累积和 tau 蛋白病可能会导致构成血脑屏障 (BBB) 的血管受损，据估计，全球约 50% 的痴呆症（包括阿尔茨海默病）是由这种疾病引起的。这种BBB损伤被认为通过增加脑通透性和外周免疫浸润导致疾病发病机制。动物 AD 相关病理模型，依赖于已建立的基因突变的过度表达或敲入，已证实 Aβ 和 tau 蛋白的积累确实会导致血管异常和血液- 脑屏障 (BBB) 崩溃（图 1），与包括认知在内的行为症状相关功能障碍。除了认知能力下降外，许多 AD 患者还经历严重的神经精神问题抑郁和焦虑等症状。虽然共病神经精神症状的机制与 AD 并不为人所知，但我们已经证明，慢性压力（人类 AD 的已知危险因素）实际上可以损坏血脑屏障。在母体 R01MH104559 下，我的实验室一直在研究是否促炎白细胞介素 6 (IL-6) 等细胞因子或免疫细胞本身可能更容易扩散到大脑中由于血管损伤而使小鼠承受压力。我们发现压力会降低紧密连接的表达密蛋白 5 (CLDN5) 并导致内皮屏障的破坏，从而允许更多的 IL-6 直接进入进入伏隔核 (NAc) 等大脑奖励区域，从而损害社会行为和对自然的反应奖励[15]。有趣的是，AD 相关病理学的基因小鼠模型证实它们确实更对压力的行为影响敏感，并表现出与年龄相关的血脑屏障退化，从而导致增加渗透性。在本补充材料中，我们将研究慢性社会压力对血脑屏障完整性的影响以及在 AD 相关病理学完善的小鼠模型中应激诱导的行为。
