Summary (written by the submitters)
Elucidating the intricate molecular mechanisms of Alzheimer's disease (AD) requires a multidimensional analysis incorporating various omics data. In this study, we employed transcriptome and proteome profiling of AppNL-G-F, a human APP knock-in model of amyloidosis, at the early and mid-stages of amyloid-beta (Aβ) pathology, to delineate the impacts of Aβ deposition on brain cells.

By contrasting AppNL-G-F mice with TREM2 (Triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells 2) knockout models, our study further investigates the role of TREM2, a well-known AD risk gene, in influencing microglial responses to Aβ pathology. Our results highlight microglial activation as a central feature of Aβ pathology, characterized by the significant upregulation of microglia-specific genes related to immune responses such as complement system and antigen presentation, and catabolic pathways such as phagosome formation and lysosome biogenesis. The absence of TREM2 markedly diminishes the induction of these genes, impairs Aβ clearance, and exacerbates dystrophic neurite formation. Importantly, TREM2 is required for the microglial engagement with Aβ plaques and the formation of compact Aβ plaque cores. Furthermore, this study reveals substantial disruptions in energy metabolism and protein synthesis, signaling a shift from anabolism to catabolism in response to Aβ deposition. This metabolic alteration, coupled with a decrease in synaptic protein abundance, occurs independently of TREM2, suggesting the direct effects of Aβ deposition on synaptic integrity and plasticity. In summary, our findings demonstrate significant microglial activation and metabolic disruption following Aβ deposition, offering mechanistic insights into Aβ pathology and highlighting the potential of targeting these pathways in AD therapy.

Download · which file do I need?

Direct links to NCBI and ENA, no account and no request form. Pick by what you want to do: take the small processed table to look, the supplementary files to re-analyse, or the original raw data to start over.

1 · Just have a look

Processed table

The series matrix: one table of values per sample as the submitters processed it. The smallest download, and it opens in Excel or R. Start here to see what the data look like.

2 · Re-analyse it

Supplementary files

The count tables and other files the authors uploaded. Take only the samples you need, or the whole study as GSE279164_RAW.tar (it can run to tens of gigabytes).

3 · Start from the raw reads

Raw sequencing reads

The original FASTQ files, straight from the sequencer, held at ENA. Large, and you align them yourself, so only choose this if you need to re-process the study from scratch.

What the files usually look like: For RNA-seq the counts are usually a table among the supplementary files (look for 'counts', 'expression', 'FPKM' or 'TPM' in the file name). The series matrix of a sequencing study is sometimes nearly empty.

Also filed as BioProject PRJNA1171003 and SRA study SRP537598. Searching any of these in the dataset finder brings you back here.
