abstract: "Clinical and genetic research links altered
cholesterol metabolism with ALS development and progression,
yet pinpointing specific pathomechanisms remain challenging.
We investigated how cholesterol dysmetabolism interacts with
protein aggregation, demyelination, and neuronal loss in
ALS. Bulk RNAseq transcriptomics showed decreased
cholesterol biosynthesis and increased cholesterol export in
ALS mouse models (GA-Nes, GA-CFP, rNLS8) and patient samples
(spinal cord), suggesting an adaptive response to
cholesterol overload. Consequently, we assessed the efficacy
of the cholesterol-binding drug
2-hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin (CD) in a fast-progressing
C9orf72 ALS mouse model with extensive poly-GA expression
and myelination deficits. CD treatment normalized
cholesteryl ester levels, lowered neurofilament light chain
levels, and prolonged lifespan in female but not male GA-Nes
mice, without impacting poly-GA aggregates. Single nucleus
transcriptomics indicated that CD primarily affected
oligodendrocytes, significantly restored myelin gene
expression, increased density of myelinated axons, inhibited
the disease-associated oligodendrocyte response, and
downregulated the lipid-associated genes Plin4 and ApoD.
These results suggest that reducing excess free cholesterol
in the CNS could be a viable ALS treatment strategy.”
Overall design: GA-Nes mice (LaClair et al, Acta
Neuropathologica 2020) and littermate controls were treated
with the cholesterol sequestering drug
2-hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin (CD) or vehicle control from
P21 (daily subcutaneous treatment) and harvested on P40. We
aim to investigate the mechanisms of lifespan extension and
neurofilament reduction with CD treatment in female mice.
