(Submitter supplied) Recent research has shown that peripheral treatment with amylin reduces Alzheimer’s disease (AD) pathology in the brain and improves learning and memory in AD mouse models. To understand the mechanism underlying this novel treatment for AD, we interrogated the transcriptome for changes in cortical gene expression in amyloid precursor protein (APP) transgenic mice treated with amylin compared to a vehicle treated group and wild type (WT) mice. more...

(Submitter supplied) Transcriptome analysis of post-mortem brain tissue specimens from three brain regions (BRs), entorinal, temporal and frontal cortices, of 71 Japanese brain-donor subjects to identify genes relevant to the expansion of neurofibrillary tangles. In total, 213 brain tissue specimens (= 71 subjects × 3 BRs) were involved in this study. The spreading of neurofibrillary tangles (NFTs), intraneuronal aggregates of highly phosphorylated microtubule-associated protein tau, across the human brain is correlated with the cognitive severity of Alzheimer’s disease (AD). more...

(Submitter supplied) We used Illumina Human HT-12 v4 arrays to compare RNA expression of middle temporal gyrus (MTG; BA21) in Alzheimer’s Disease (AD = 97) and non-demented controls (ND = 98). A total of 938 transcripts were highly differentially expressed (adj p < 0.01; log2 Fold Change (FC) ≥ |0.500|, with 411 overexpressed and 527 underexpressed in AD. Our results correlated with expression profiling in neurons from AD and ND obtained by Laser Capture Microscopy in MTG from an independent dataset (log2 FC correlation: r = 0.504; p = 2.2e-16). more...

(Submitter supplied) Human middle temporal gyrus (MTG) is a vulnerable brain region in early Alzheimer’s disease (AD), but little is known about the molecular mechanisms underlying this regional vulnerability. Here we utilize the 10x Visium platform to define the spatial transcriptomic profile in both AD and control (CT) MTG. We identify unique marker genes for cortical layers and the white matter, and layer-specific differentially expressed genes (DEGs) in human AD compared to CT. more...

(Submitter supplied) Mice of indicated sexes and genotypes were perfused and their brains dissected and dissociated. Cells were fixed, immunolabeled and FACS sorted. RNA was extracted from neuron, astrocyte, and microglial cell populations. Typical RIN=4-5 for neurons, 6-8 for astrocytes, and 5-7 for microglia. Typical RNA yields ~100ng for neurons, ~20ng for microglia, and ~10ng for astrocytes. cDNA was generated from up to 25 ng of total RNA using Nugen’s RNA-Seq method for low-input RNA samples, Ovation RNA-Seq System V2 (NuGEN). more...

(Submitter supplied) This project defines the microglial gene expression profile in a transgenic mouse model of Alzheimer's, compared to non-transgenic age-matched controls, at a time when amyloid pathology and microgliosis are rampant. Microglia were sorted live from one hemisphere of cerebral cortex, using GFP expressed from Cx3cr1 locus (mice have one intact copy of Cx3cr1). RNA was isolated from sorted microglia using RNeasy mini. more...

(Submitter supplied) Scope: As a result of population ageing, the number of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) patients has rapidly increased. There are many hypothesises on the pathogenesis of AD, but its detailed molecular mechanism is still unknown, and so no effective preventive or therapeutic measures have been established. Some reports showed a decrease in levels of norepinephrine (NE) has been suspected to be involved in the decline of cognitive function in AD patients and NE concentrations were decreased in postmortem AD patient brains. more...
