1 Inflammation in dementia V. Hugh Perry University of Southampton DPUK April 2018

2 Inflammation in Alzheimer s disease: consequence or contributor? Amyloid plaque Neurofibrillary tangle Nissl & Alzheimer 1910 Karch &Goate (2015)

3 Neuroinflammation Walters et al 2016 Hirsch & Hunot 2009 Walters et al 2016 Jacobs et al 2012 Meraz-Rioz et al 2013

4 Microglia and macrophages of the CNS Microglia Yolk sac derived and enter CNS in embryo Dynamically interact with their environment Long lived population, locally maintained by mitosis and apoptosis Diverse functions: Homeostasis Homeostatic transcriptome signature Pathology activated microglia Diverse and plastic transcriptome Perivascular macrophages Immune brain communication

5 Microglia in homeostasis current concepts Clear apoptotic cells Phagocytose molecular debris * Monitor synapse health Trophic support for neurons

6 Microglia and synapse homeostasis Hong, Dissing, Stevens (2016)

7 Synapse pruning in the adult CNS: the pituitary Pow et al 1989

8 Microglia and synaptic plasticity Mittelbron et al (2001) Lawson et al (1990)

9 Microglia survey synapses: Which ones? Bartol et al (2015): 449 synapses in (236 presynaptic boutons) in 6x6x5um Krejčova, Diniz et al (2016): volume of microglia territory x 10-6 mm 3 Microglia survey between 174, ,000 synapses in their territory ,0000 synapses Sogn et al (2013): 3.5% synapses with Microglia contact

10 Microglia depletion with icsf1r/c-kit Elmore et al 2015

11 Neuroinflammation and routes to immunomodulation

12 Morphologically activated microglia What activates them - misfolded protein or neurodegeneration? What is their phenotype? Where do they come from recruitment or local proliferation? How do they contribute to disease?

13 Synaptic pruning Stephan AH et al 2012

14 Loss of pre- and post-synaptic elements Is the axon transected by the degeneration of the synapse? Does the spine degenerate or collapse into the dendrite?

15 Loss of pre- and post-synaptic elements Is the axon transected by the degeneration of the synapse? Does the spine degenerate or collapse into the dendrite? No phagocytosis of pre- or post-synaptic components but trogocytosis (Gr, trogo: nibble) of the axon and pre-synaptic elements (Weinhard et al 2018).

16 Synapse disassembly or degeneration Dickins and Salinas 2013
