The interplay between microglial states and major risk factors in Alzheimer's disease through the eyes of single-cell RNA-sequencing: beyond black and white.

Abstract:

:Microglia constitute ~10-20% of glial cells in the adult human brain. They are the resident phagocytic immune cells of the central nervous system and play an integral role as first responders during inflammation. Microglia are commonly classified as "HM" (homeostatic), "M1" (classically activated proinflammatory), or "M2" (alternatively activated). Multiple single-cell RNA-sequencing studies suggest that this discrete classification system does not accurately and fully capture the vast heterogeneity of microglial states in the brain. In fact, a recent single-cell RNA-sequencing study showed that microglia exist along a continuous spectrum of states. This spectrum spans heterogeneous populations of homeostatic and neuropathology-associated microglia in both healthy and Alzheimer's disease (AD) mouse brains. Major risk factors, such as sex, age, and genes, modulate microglial states, suggesting that shifts along the trajectory might play a causal role in AD pathogenesis. This study provides important insight into the cellular mechanisms of AD and underlines the potential of novel cell-based therapies for AD.

  • Two-tone suppression in the basilar membrane of the cochlea: mechanical basis of auditory-nerve rate suppression.

    abstract::1. The vibratory response to two-tone stimuli was measured in the basilar membrane of the chinchilla cochlea by means of the Mössbauer technique or laser velocimetry. Measurements were made at sites with characteristic frequency (CF, the frequency at which an auditory structure is most sensitive) of 7-10 kHz, located ...
