项目摘要
PROJECT SUMMARY
Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is the leading cause of dementia, affecting 6.2 million people in the United States and
44 million worldwide. These numbers are expected to quadruple by 2050, if no cure is found by then. AD features
progressive neurodegeneration beginning in the hippocampus, leading to early loss of declarative hippocampal-
dependent memory. The deposition of misfolded amyloid, a key pathological hallmark of AD preceding the onset
of dementia by decades, is believed to be an initiating factor of the progressive neurodegeneration and memory
loss. However, the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. Early in AD, amyloid deposition is accompanied by
reduction of cerebral blood flow. Also, amyloid deposits are conspicuously found on the brain microvasculature,
which results in impaired vasoactivity in response to stimulation. The collective evidence leads us to hypothesize
that vascular amyloid impairs microvessel’s ability to regulate local blood oxygen delivery to meet the metabolic
need of neurons in the hippocampus, causing early memory loss in AD. Further, we hypothesize that the amyloid-
mediated, neurovascular pathology-driven memory decline in the hippocampus is reversible with improved blood
oxygen delivery. Testing the hypotheses may offer new insights into AD pathogenesis, but it requires longitudinal
microscopic assessments of neurovascular function in the hippocampus of AD mice with known memory status,
which is largely beyond the reach of conventional benchtop microscopy techniques. To address this challenge,
we propose to develop a bidirectional (imaging and manipulation) fiber interface for longitudinal and minimally
invasive assessments of deep brain regions in rodents. Combining photoacoustic and fluorescence microscopy,
this device (diameter: 230–420 µm) will enable concurrent imaging of amyloid deposition, microvascular function
(blood oxygenation and flow), and neuronal activity in the hippocampus of AD mice. Moreover, building upon our
recent progress in fiber-based deep brain stimulation and chemical delivery, this interface will also enable focal
electrical stimulation to assess neurovascular coupling and local delivery of PGE2, a vasodilator, to examine the
function of vascular smooth muscles and whether hippocampal blood oxygen supply is retrievable to counteract
the amyloid-mediated focal hypoxia/ischemia and improve memory loss. In summary, the proposed study seeks
to establish the direct and causal relationship between amyloid-mediated neurovascular dysfunction and memory
loss in the hippocampus, where AD originates, through the development and application of a bidirectional deep
brain interface. More broadly, altered neural-vascular interaction and misfolded protein aggregation have been
associated with a wide range of brain diseases, including but not limited to AD. Enabling microscopic assessment
and focal manipulation of neuronal activity, blood oxygen delivery, and pathological molecular processes in the
rodent brain irrespective of depth, the bidirectional deep brain interface is expected to find broad applications in
basic and translational brain research.
项目摘要
阿尔茨海默病(AD)是痴呆症的主要原因,影响美国620万人,
