| Study Title | Integrative brain omics approach highlights sn-1 lysophosphatidylethanolamine in Alzheimer's dementia |
| Study Summary | The biology of individual lipid species and their relevance in Alzheimer’s disease (AD) remains incompletely understood. To explore the lipidomic biomarkers associated with cognition function and neuropathological changes in AD, we utilize non-targeted mass spectrometry on 316 post-mortem brains from participants in the Religious Orders Study (ROS) or Rush Memory and Aging Project (MAP) cohorts classified as control, asymptomatic AD (AAD), or symptomatic AD (SAD), and integrate the lipidomics data with untargeted proteomics from the same individuals. We find that lysophosphatidylethanolamine (LPE) and lysophosphatidylcholine (LPC) species are significantly lower in SAD than controls or AAD. Lipid-protein network analyses reveal that LPE/LPC modules are significantly associated with protein modules involved in MAPK/metabolism, post-synaptic density, and cell-ECM interaction pathways, and correlate with better antemortem cognition and reduced AD neuropathology. Particularly, LPE 22:6 [sn-1] is significantly decreased SAD and exerts a pronounced influence on protein changes relevant to neurotransmitter-driven post synaptic changes and plasticity compared to other lysophospholipids species. These findings suggest LPE 22:6 as a potential lipid signature and therapeutic target for AD. |

Collection:
| Collection ID: | CO004312 |
| Collection Summary: | Brain tissues were from the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) from 316 subjects in the ROSMAP cohort studies of aging and dementia. |
| Sample Type: | Brain |
Treatment:
| Treatment ID: | TR004328 |
| Treatment Summary: | No treatment |
Sample Preparation:
| Sampleprep ID: | SP004325 |
| Sampleprep Summary: | Approximately 50 mg of gray matter dissected from DLPFC were added to a 96-well plate with 250 µl PBS and 1.4 mm ceramic beads, and homogenized for 4.0 m/s for 20 sec at 4°C. After homogenization, the samples were centrifuged at 3220 x g for 10 min to pellet cell debris and the supernatant was extracted using a combination of Methyl tert-butyl ether (MTBE) and methanol using an automated sample handling manifold, Biotage Extrahera (Biotage, Uppsala, Sweden). For this, the homogenate was added to preconditioned 96-well plates, each well containing 10 µl internal standard obtained from Splash Lipidomix (Avanti Polar, Birmingham, AL). To each well, 200 µl methanol containing 50 µg/ml butylhydroxytoluene (BHT) was added. The sample was mixed by 3 up and down passes of the automated sample handling pipette arm. The samples were then centrifuged at 3220 x g for 10 minutes to pellet precipitated protein. The supernatant was then transferred to a separate deep well 96-well plate. To this, 250 µl MTBE:methanol (3:1 v/v) was added and mixed by 3 up and down passes. The sample plate was then centrifuged at 1000 x g for 3 minutes and the supernatant filtered through a 0.25 µm polytetrafluoroethylene (PFTE) filter plate (Biotage, ISOLUTE® FILTER+, Uppsala, Sweden). The extract was then dried under nitrogen for lipidomic analysis. Dried lipids were reconstituted in 200 μl 1:1 acetonitrile: isopropanol for LC-MS/MS analysis. |
