Despite years of research, it is still not known how it contributes to dementia development. APOE has been implicated in many AD pathology mechanisms, like Aβ clearance, brain metabolism, changes within microglia and other glial functions and inflammatory processes. In fact, immunological/inflammatory processes are recently discussed as an important factor in Alzheimer's development and granulocyte profiles changes are reported in patients. However, the exact link between the immune system and risk‑genes is unknown. In particular, it is not known whether and how they interact throughout the lifetime, before the disease onset. The aim of the study was to investigate the relationship between granulocyte count and the APOE/PICALM genes in healthy individuals with an increased genetic risk of AD. An exploratory analysis regarding other blood cells was also conducted. Blood samples were collected from 77 healthy middle‑aged (50-63 years old) participants, who were also asked to complete a health and life‑style questionnaires. Groups with different AD risk‑genes were compared. Differences in granulocyte profiles were found in healthy carriers of AD risk‑genes who had slightly elevated eosinophil levels as compared to non-risk carriers. An exploratory analysis showed some alteration in mean corpuscular hemoglobin content and concentration (MCH/MCHC) levels between risk‑carriers subgroups and non-risk carriers. No other differences in blood count or lipoprotein profile were found between healthy APOE/PICALM risk‑carriers and non-risk carriers.

Given that the virus‑induced neurological involvement is associated with a poorer prognosis, persistent neurological sequelae, and a more severe form of the disease, efforts have been made to introduce a biomarker to recognize neurological abnormalities early in the course of the disease. Studies indicate a significantly higher concentration of neurofilament light chain (NFL) in cerebrospinal fluid or blood of COVID‑19 patients versus adjusted controls. It has also been reported that COVID‑19 patients suffering from the severe form of the disease had higher NFL levels than patients with mild to moderate forms. Moreover, elevated NFL levels at hospital admission in patients who did not present primarily with neurological expressions could predict the emergence of neurological symptoms during the hospital stay. The early recognition of neurological abnormalities using the NFL biomarker could lead to escalated medical care limiting the progression of SARS‑CoV‑2‑induced central nervous system pathogenesis, resulting in a significant amelioration in disease outcome.

Many studies have shown that the incidence of postoperative cognitive impairment in adults induced by one‑time anesthesia and surgery is very low, while multiple experiences of anesthesia and surgery can induce cognitive impairment in the developing brain. However, the effect of multiple experiences of anesthesia and surgery on cognitive function over a short period in middle‑aged mice, i.e., 6 to 8 months old, remains unclear. In this study, we explored whether the cognitive function of mice aged 6-8 months is impaired after multiple operations. Middle‑aged mice (6 to 8 months old) healthy male C57BL/6 mice underwent exploratory laparotomy under isoflurane anesthesia. Morris water maze testing was performed after the operations. Blood and brain samples were collected at 6 h, 24 h, and 48 h after the operations. Serum IL‑6, IL‑1, and S‑100β concentrations were detected by ELISA. The expressions of ChAT, AChE, and Aβ in the hippocampus were measured by western blot. Up‑regulation of Iba1 and GFAP, respectively, indicated activation of microglia and astrocytes in the hippocampus. Expression of Iba1 and GFAP was examined by immunofluorescence. The present results revealed that serum IL‑6, IL‑1β, and S‑100β concentrations were enhanced after multiple instances of anesthesia and surgery, and microglia and astrocytes in the hippocampus were activated. However, learning and memory were not impaired in the middle‑aged mice by multiple experiences of anesthesia and surgery. There were no changes in ChAT, AChE, and Aβ in the hippocampus after multiple experiences of anesthesia/surgery.

We aimed to investigate whether apelin‑13 played a protective role on BV‑2 microglia and explore its underlying mechanisms. Lipopolysaccharide (LPS)‑stimulated BV‑2 microglia cells were treated with apelin‑13. Microglia activation was evaluated by immunofluorescence with F‑actin. Western blot was performed to measure the expression of autophagy associated proteins. CD16/32 and CD206 were detected to assess microglia polarization by western blot and flow cytometry. qRT‑PCR was utilized to measure inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS), arginase‑1 (Arg‑1), interleukin‑10 (IL‑10), interleukin‑6 (IL‑6) and tumor necrosis factor‑alpha (TNF‑α). Histone H3 acetyl lysine 9 (H3K9ac) enrichment of TNF‑α and IL‑6 promoter was detected by ChIP. We discovered that apelin‑13 impacted the actin cytoskeleton, recovering the control phenotype following LPS exposure. Apelin‑13 improved autophagy‑mediated microglia polarization towards M2 phenotype to alleviate inflammatory response in LPS‑stimulated cells. Autophagy flux inhibitor chloroquine antagonized these effects of apelin‑13 on LPS‑stimulated cells. Besides, apelin‑13 decreased the enrichment of H3K9ac at the promoter region of TNF‑α and IL‑6 to inhibit inflammatory response, which was reversed by histone deacetylase antagonist valproate. Taken together, apelin‑13 alleviated inflammation via facilitating microglia M2 polarization due to autophagy promotion, and inhibiting H3K9ac enrichment on promoter regions of TNF‑α and IL‑6.","PeriodicalId":7032,"journal":{"name":"Acta neurobiologiae experimentalis","volume":"82 1 1","pages":"65-76"},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"2022-03-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"70810338","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
