Reversal of ApoE4-induced recycling block as a novel prevention approach for Alzheimer's disease.

eLife | 2018

ApoE4 genotype is the most prevalent and also clinically most important risk factor for late-onset Alzheimer's disease (AD). Available evidence suggests that the root cause for this increased risk is a trafficking defect at the level of the early endosome. ApoE4 differs from the most common ApoE3 isoform by a single amino acid that increases its isoelectric point and promotes unfolding of ApoE4 upon endosomal vesicle acidification. We found that pharmacological and genetic inhibition of NHE6, the primary proton leak channel in the early endosome, in rodents completely reverses the ApoE4-induced recycling block of the ApoE receptor Apoer2/Lrp8 and the AMPA- and NMDA-type glutamate receptors that are regulated by, and co-endocytosed in a complex with, Apoer2. Moreover, NHE6 inhibition restores the Reelin-mediated modulation of excitatory synapses that is impaired by ApoE4. Our findings suggest a novel potential approach for the prevention of late-onset AD.

Odyssey CLx (software resource)

RRID:SCR_014579

A data analysis software developed to simplify and record data from fluorescent related assays such as Western Blots, EMSAs, and Western Assays. This software will consolidate all of the resulting data into one easy-to-track image, and thus removes the need for multiple exposures, as well as standardizing the resulting fluorescent bands without image saturation, blowout, or removed sensitivity. Odyssey CLx is capable of scanning multiple mini-blots, microplates, or slides at the same time.
