Inhibition of acid sphingomyelinase reduces reactive astrocyte secretion of mitotoxic extracellular vesicles and improves Alzheimer’s disease pathology in the 5xFAD mouse
In Alzheimer’s disease (AD), reactive astrocytes produce extracellular vesicles (EVs) that affect mitochondria in neurons. Here, we show that Aβ-induced generation of the sphingolipid ceramide by acid sphingomyelinase (A-SMase) triggered proinflammatory cytokine (C1q, TNF-α, IL-1α) release by microg...

description | In Alzheimer’s disease (AD), reactive astrocytes produce extracellular vesicles (EVs) that affect mitochondria in neurons. Here, we show that Aβ-induced generation of the sphingolipid ceramide by acid sphingomyelinase (A-SMase) triggered proinflammatory cytokine (C1q, TNF-α, IL-1α) release by microglia, which induced the reactive astrocytes phenotype and secretion of EVs enriched with ceramide. These EVs impeded the capacity of neurons to respond to energy demand. Inhibition of A-SMase with Arc39 and Imipramine reduced the secretion of cytokines from microglia, prompting us to test the effect of Imipramine on EV secretion and AD pathology in the 5xFAD mouse model. Brain derived-EVs from 5xFAD mice treated with Imipramine contained reduced levels of the astrocytic marker GFAP, ceramide, and Aβ and did not impair mitochondrial respiration when compared to EVs derived from untreated 5xFAD brain. Consistently, Imipramine-treated 5xFAD mice showed reduced AD pathology. Our study identifies A-SMase inhibitors as potential AD therapy by preventing cyotokine-elicited secretion of mitotoxic EVs from astrocytes.
