abstract = {Proliferation of microglia represents a physiological
process, which is accelerated in several neurodegenerative
disorders including Alzheimer disease (AD). The effect of
such neurodegeneration-associated microglial proliferation
on function and disease progression remains unclear. Here,
we show that proliferation results in profound alterations
of cellular function by providing evidence that newly
proliferated microglia show impaired beta-amyloid clearance
in vivo. Through sorting of proliferating microglia of
APP/PS1 mice and subsequent transcriptome analysis, we
define unique proliferation-associated transcriptomic
signatures that change with age and beta-amyloid
accumulation and are characterized by enrichment of immune
system-related pathways. Of note, we identify the DEAD-Box
Helicase 3 X-Linked (DDX3X) as a key molecule to modulate
microglia activation and cytokine secretion and it is
expressed in the AD brain. Together, these results argue for
a novel concept by which phenotypic and functional
microglial changes occur longitudinally as a response to
accelerated proliferation in a neurodegenerative
environment.},
