TREM2 Inhibits Tau Hyperphosphorylation and Neuronal Apoptosis via the PI3K/Akt/GSK-3β Signaling Pathway In vivo and In vitro. | LitMetric

Triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells-2 (TREM2), a cell surface receptor mainly expressed on microglia, has been shown to play a critical role in Alzheimer's disease (AD) pathogenesis and progression. Our recent results showed that overexpression of TREM2 inhibited inflammatory response in APP/PS1 mice and BV2 cells. Several studies indicated that TREM2 ameliorated tau hyperphosphorylation might be ascribed to the inhibition of neuroinflammation. However, the precise signaling pathways underlying the effect of TREM2 on tau pathology and neuronal apoptosis have not been fully elucidated. In the present study, upregulation of TREM2 significantly inhibited tau hyperphosphorylation at Ser199, Ser396, and Thr205, respectively, as well as prevented neuronal loss and apoptosis. We also found that upregulation of TREM2 alleviated behavioral deficits and improved the spatial cognitive ability of APP/PS1 mice. Further study revealed that TREM2 could activate phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase/protein kinase B (PI3K/Akt) signaling pathway, resulting in an inhibitory effect on glycogen synthase kinase-3β (GSK-3β), which is a major kinase responsible for tau hyperphosphorylation in AD. In line with in vivo findings, TREM2-overexpressing BV2 microglia following β-amyloid (Aβ) stimulation led to a significant increase in the phosphorylation of PI3K, Akt, and GSK-3β, accompanied by a decrease in tau hyperphosphorylation and apoptosis in co-cultured SH-SY5Y cells. Furthermore, LY294002, a specific PI3K inhibitor, was observed to abolish the beneficial effects of TREM2 on tau hyperphosphorylation, neuronal apoptosis, and spatial cognitive impairments in vivo and in vitro. Thus, our findings indicated that TREM2 inhibits tau hyperphosphorylation and neuronal apoptosis, at least in part, by the activation of the PI3K/Akt/GSK-3β signaling pathway. Taken together, the above results allow us to better understand how TREM2 protects against tau pathology and suggest that upregulation of TREM2 may provide new ideas and therapeutic targets for AD.
