| Study Title | Lipidomic/Metabolomic Characterization of GPR34 KO, WT, TREM2 KO, and GPR34/TREM2 dKO iPSC1-derived microglia |
| Study Summary | GPR34 is a microglia-enriched receptor that senses cytotoxic lipids in Alzheimer’s disease and may interact with other lipid sensors like TREM2 to regulate metabolism. Using targeted lipid and metabolite profiling of iPSC-derived microglia with GPR34 KO, TREM2 KO, or GPR34/TREM2 double KO, we found that GPR34 deletion restores cholesterol metabolism defects in TREM2 KO cells and independently enhances fatty acid catabolism. |

| Project Title: | GPR34 regulates microglia state and loss-of-function rescues TREM2 metabolic dysfunction |
| Project Type: | cellular study |
| Project Summary: | Microglia are implicated in modifying neurodegenerative disease risk in the central nervous system (CNS). GPR34 is a microglia-enriched G-protein coupled receptor that detects cytotoxic lipids upregulated in Alzheimer’s Disease (AD). Since dysregulated lipid metabolism occurs in disease, we hypothesized GPR34 could act with other lipid sensors, such as TREM2, to regulate microglial function. Here, we report that GPR34 knockout (KO) rescues dysregulated cholesterol metabolism in TREM2 KO iPSC-derived microglia (iMG) and alone promotes fatty acid catabolism without the proton leak observed in TREM2 KO. Loss of GPR34 downregulated ERK signaling, while its agonism promoted interaction with and activation of ERK. In healthy and amyloid mouse models, Gpr34 KO accelerated the conversion of homeostatic microglia to disease-associated microglia (DAM) states. Additionally, in Gpr34 KO amyloid mouse brain, the frequency of large plaques was increased compared to WT, indicating that Gpr34 KO microglia may promote amyloid aggregation. Overall, our data suggest GPR34 as a therapeutic target for modulating microglial function to slow AD progression. |

| Treatment Summary: | Demyelination is a key feature of neuronal degeneration in vivo in AD and amyloid mouse models (see Nugent et al. 2020, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.neuron.2019.12.007). For this reason, we selected it as a stimulus to evaluate microglial metabolism under a physiologically relevant stressor in vitro. Cells were treated for 48 hours with PBS or Myelin, followed by lipid extraction. |
Sample Preparation:
| Sampleprep ID: | SP004363 |
| Sampleprep Summary: | Cells were harvested by aspirating the medium, briefly washed with 1 mL of ice-cold PBS, and then lysed in 50 µL methanol containing stable-isotope internal standards. Samples were vortexed, adjusted to 100 µl with MS-grade H₂O, and transferred to 1.5 ml Protein LoBind tubes on ice. 100 µl of Methyl tert-butyl ether (MTBE)was added, vortexed and centrifuged at 21,000 g for 10 min at 4 °C. The two phases were separated: the top (non-polar lipids) and bottom (polar metabolites) were collected into glass vials, dried overnight in a Genevac EZ3, and resuspended in 100 µl of methanol (lipids) or 9:1 methanol:H₂O (metabolites) for LC-MS/MS analysis. |
