Study Title | Untargeted Metabolomics of 3xTg-AD Neurotoxic Astrocytes |
Study Summary | Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the most common form of dementia, affecting approximately 47M people worldwide. Histological features and genetic risk factors, among other evidence, supported the amyloid hypothesis of the disease. This neuronocentric paradigm is currently undergoing a shift, considering evidence of the role of other cell types, such as microglia and astrocytes, in disease progression. Previously, we described a particular astrocyte subtype obtained from the 3xTg-AD murine model that displays neurotoxic properties in vitro. We continue here our exploratory analysis through the lens of metabolomics to identify potentially altered metabolites and biological pathways. Cell extracts from neurotoxic and control astrocytes were compared using HRMS-based metabolomics. Around 12% of metabolic features demonstrated significant differences between neurotoxic and control astrocytes, including alterations in the key metabolite glutamate. Consistent with our previous transcriptomic study, the present results illustrate many homeostatic and regulatory functions of metabolites, suggesting that neurotoxic 3xTg-AD astrocytes exhibit alterations in the Krebs cycle as well as the prostaglandin pathway. This is the first metabolomic study performed in 3xTg-AD neurotoxic astrocytes. These results provide insight into metabolic alterations potentially associated with neurotoxicity and pathology progression in the 3xTg-AD mouse model and strengthen the therapeutic potential of astrocytes in AD. |

Collection Summary: | Neurotoxic astrocyte cultures were prepared from the cerebral cortex and hippocampus of 9- to 10-month-old 3xTg-AD female mice according to previously described methods [2]. Female animals were used since sex differences in the development of the pathology have been described in this AD murine model, with a greater expression of transgenes in females [3,4]. Astrocytes isolated from 9- to 10-month-old non-Tg mice were not used as controls in our studies due to the low yield achieved [2]. Instead, astrocytic cultures derived from neonatal non-Tg mice as well as astrocytes from neonatal 3xTg-AD mice were used as controls. These non-toxic controls allowed us to assess whether astrocytes from this mice model of AD exhibit alterations when isolated before the disease onset. Nontoxic control astrocyte cultures were derived from the cerebral cortex and hippocampus of neonatal (postnatal day 0–2) 3xTg-AD and non-Tg (C57BL/6J) mice following the methods described by Cassina et al. with minor modifications [2,5]. All cell cultures were amplified and maintained at 37°C in a humidified incubator with 5% CO2. References [2] P. Diaz-Amarilla, F. Arredondo, R. Dapueto, V. Boix, D. Carvalho, M.D. Santi, E.

Sampleprep Summary: | Extraction of metabolites from cultured cells was performed based on previous work by Go et al. (2015), Liu et al. (2019), as well as Sapcariu et al. (2014) [6-8]. One sample consisted of metabolites extracted and pooled from 3 wells of a 6-well plate, pooling a total of 9 samples per condition. Briefly, confluent cells were washed with 0.9% (m/v) NaCl at room temperature, followed by the addition of 300 µL of an ice-cold HPLC-grade acetonitrile-water solution mixture (1:2) per well. This allowed us to scrape cells, precipitate proteins, and extract metabolites. The extracts were kept at 4 °C for 30 min. and centrifuged at 16,100 g for 10 min to remove the protein and any remaining insoluble fraction. Supernatants were transferred to screw-cap vials and dried in a fast vacuum centrifuge (overnight, 35°C). |

MS Comments: | MS acquisition Comments: Collected mass spectral data were analyzed for features using Xcaliber (ThermoFisher; Waltham MA). Ultra-high resolution mass spectrometry operating at 60,000 and 120,000 resolution has previously been shown to provide effective metabolite quantification in biological extracts [11] and the use of complementary chromatography and ionization phases have been shown to improve the detection of endogenous and exogenous chemicals. Data processing Comments: Raw mass spectral data files were converted to computable document format (CDF) using Xcalibur file conversion software (Thermo Fisher Scientific, San Diego, CA) for further processing. Software/procedures used for feature assignments: Data were processed for peak extraction, noise filtering, m/z and retention time alignment, and quantification of ion intensities using apLCMS [29] with enhanced data extraction using xMSanalyzer [30]. xMSanalyzer improves feature detection through systematic data re-extraction, statistical filtering and fusion [30]. Metabolite feature peak intensity values were summarized by the median in triplicate (technical replicates) and subjected to quality assessment. The samples were filtered considering an overall Pearson correlation of technical replicates of (r) > 0.70 and a cut-off coefficient of variation of 75%. Considering the number of missing values, one sample outlier was further removed from the C18 and HILIC cell extraction feature tables. Attached is the xMSAnalyzer table of the detected peak intensities. As stated above, the values represent the median of three technical replicates evaluated per original sample. For example, samples labeled 2A_2, 2A_4 and 2A_6 in the design table are summarized under label 2A in the features table.
