Spatial proteomics of hippocampal subfield-specific pathology in Alzheimer's disease and primary age-related tauopathy
ALZHEIMERS & DEMENTIA(2024)
摘要
INTRODUCTION: Alzheimer's disease (AD) and primary age-related tauopathy (PART) both harbor 3R/4R hyperphosphorylated-tau (p-tau)-positive neurofibrillary tangles (NFTs) but differ in the spatial p-tau development in the hippocampus. METHODS: Using Nanostring GeoMx Digital Spatial Profiling, we compared protein expression within hippocampal subregions in NFT-bearing and non-NFT-bearing neurons in AD (n = 7) and PART (n = 7) subjects. RESULTS: Proteomic measures of synaptic health were inversely correlated with the subregional p-tau burden inADandPART, and therewere numerous differences in proteins involved in proteostasis, amyloid beta (A ss) processing, inflammation, microglia, oxidative stress, and neuronal/synaptic health between AD and PART and between definite PART and possible PART. DISCUSSION: These results suggest subfield-specific proteome differences that may explain some of the differences in A ss and p-tau distribution and apparent pathogenicity. In addition, hippocampal neurons in possible PART may have more in common with AD than with definite PART, highlighting the importance of A ss in the pathologic process.
