[PMID: 39165837 PMCID: PMC11334082 DOI: 10.3389/fnagi.2024.1388363] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/19/2024] [Accepted: 07/18/2024] [Indexed: 08/22/2024] Open
Abstract
Introduction Emerging evidence suggests a connection between vulnerability to infections and Alzheimer's disease (AD). The nectin cell adhesion molecule 2 (NECTIN2) gene coding for a membrane component of adherens junctions is involved in response to infections, and its single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) rs6859 was significantly associated with AD risk in several human cohorts. It is unclear, however, how exactly rs6859 influences the development of AD pathology. The aggregation of hyperphosphorylated tau protein (pTau) is a key pathological feature of neurodegeneration in AD, which may be induced by infections, among other factors, and potentially influenced by genes involved in both AD and vulnerability to infections, such as NECTIN2. Materials and methods We conducted a causal mediation analysis (CMA) on a sample of 708 participants in the Alzheimer's disease Neuroimaging Initiative (ADNI). The relationship between rs6859 and Alzheimer's disease (AD), with AD (yes/no) as the outcome and pTau-181 levels in the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) acting as a mediator in this association, was assessed. Adjusted estimates from the probit and linear regression models were used in the CMA model, where an additive model considered an increase in dosage of the rs6859 A allele (AD risk factor). Results The increase in dose of allele A of the SNP rs6859 resulted in about 0.144 increase per standard deviation (SD) of pTau-181 (95% CI: 0.041, 0.248, p < 0.01). When included together in the probit model, the change in A allele dose and each standard deviation change in pTau-181 predicted 6.84% and 9.79% higher probabilities for AD, respectively. In the CMA, the proportion of the average mediated effect was 17.05% and was higher for the risk allele homozygotes (AA), at 19.40% (95% CI: 6.20%, 43.00%, p < 0.01). The sensitivity analysis confirmed the evidence of a robust mediation effect. Conclusion This study reported a new potential causal relationship between pTau-181 and AD. We found that the association between rs6859 in the NECTIN2 gene and AD is partly mediated by pTau-181 levels in CSF. The rest of this association may be mediated by other factors. Our finding sheds light on the complex interplay between genetic susceptibility, protein aggregation, and neurodegeneration in AD. Further research, using other biomarkers, is needed to uncover the remaining mechanisms of the association between the NECTIN2 gene and AD.

FRONTIERS IN ORAL HEALTH 2024; 5:1430077. [PMID: 38953010 PMCID: PMC11215077 DOI: 10.3389/froh.2024.1430077] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/09/2024] [Accepted: 05/30/2024] [Indexed: 07/03/2024] Open
Abstract
Introduction Oral herpes infections caused by herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) are one of the most common in the human population. Recently, they have been classified as an increasing problem in immunocompromised patients and those suffering from chronic inflammation of the oral mucosa and gums. Treatment mainly involves nucleoside analogues, such as acyclovir and its derivatives, which reduce virus replication and shedding. As drug-resistant strains of herpes emerge rapidly, there is a need for the development of novel anti-herpes agents. The aim of the study was to design an antiviral peptide, based on natural compounds, non-toxic to the host, and efficient against drug-resistant HSV-1. Here, we designed a lysine-rich derivative of amphibian temporin-1CEb conjugated to peptides penetrating the host cell membrane and examined their activity against HSV-1 infection of oral mucosa. Methods We assessed the antiviral efficiency of the tested compound in simple 2D cell models (VeroE6 and TIGKs cells) and a 3D organotypic model of human gingiva (OTG) using titration assay, qPCR, and confocal imaging. To identify the molecular mechanism of antiviral activity, we applied the Azure A metachromatic test, and attachment assays techniques. Toxicity of the conjugates was examined using XTT and LDH assays. Results Our results showed that temporin-1CEb analogues significantly reduce viral replication in oral mucosa. The mechanism of peptide analogues is based on the interaction with heparan sulfate, leading to the reduce attachment of HSV-1 to the cell membrane. Moreover, temporin-1CEb conjugates effectively penetrate the gingival tissue being effective against acyclovir-resistant strains. Collectively, we showed that temporin-1CEb can be regarded as a novel, naturally derived antiviral compound for HSV-1 treatment.

Abstract
Neurodegenerative diseases (NDs) constitute a group of disorders characterized by the progressive deterioration of nervous system functionality. Currently, the precise etiological factors responsible for NDs remain incompletely elucidated, although it is probable that a combination of aging, genetic predisposition, and environmental stressors participate in this process. Accumulating evidence indicates that viral infections, especially neurotropic viruses, can contribute to the onset and progression of NDs. In this review, emerging evidence supporting the association between viral infection and NDs is summarized, and how the autophagy pathway mediated by viral infection can cause pathological aggregation of cellular proteins associated with various NDs is discussed. Furthermore, autophagy-related genes (ARGs) involved in Herpes simplex virus (HSV-1) infection and NDs are analyzed, and whether these genes could link HSV-1 infection to NDs is discussed. Elucidating the mechanisms underlying NDs is critical for developing targeted therapeutic approaches that prevent the onset and slow the progression of NDs.

Abstract
Mitochondria are versatile and highly dynamic organelles found in eukaryotic cells that play important roles in a variety of cellular processes. The importance of mitochondrial transport in cell metabolism, including variations in mitochondrial distribution within cells and intercellular transfer, has grown in recent years. Several studies have demonstrated that abnormal mitochondrial transport represents an early pathogenic alteration in a variety of illnesses, emphasizing its significance in disease development and progression. Mitochondrial Rho GTPase (Miro) is a protein found on the outer mitochondrial membrane that is required for cytoskeleton-dependent mitochondrial transport, mitochondrial dynamics (fusion and fission), and mitochondrial Ca2+ homeostasis. Miro, as a critical regulator of mitochondrial transport, has yet to be thoroughly investigated in illness. This review focuses on recent developments in recognizing Miro as a crucial molecule in controlling mitochondrial transport and investigates its roles in diverse illnesses. It also intends to shed light on the possibilities of targeting Miro as a therapeutic method for a variety of diseases.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Functional decline associated with dementia, including in Alzheimer's disease (AD), is not uniform across individuals, and respective heterogeneity is not yet fully explained. Such heterogeneity may in part be related to genetic variability among individuals. In this study, we investigated whether the SNP rs6859 in nectin cell adhesion molecule 2 (NECTIN2) gene (a major risk factor for AD) influences trajectories of cognitive decline in older participants from the Alzheimer's Disease Neuroimaging Initiative (ADNI). METHODS We retrospectively analyzed records on 1310 participants from the ADNI database for the multivariate analysis. We used longitudinal measures of Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) scores in participants, who were cognitively normal, or having AD, or other cognitive deficits to investigate the trajectories of cognitive changes. Multiple linear regression, linear mixed models and latent class analyses were conducted to investigate the association of the SNP rs6859 with MMSE. RESULTS The regression coefficient per one allele dose of the SNP rs6859 was independently associated with MMSE in both cross-sectional (-2.23, p < 0.01) and linear mixed models (-2.26, p < 0.01) analyses. The latent class model with three distinct subgroups (class 1: stable and gradual decline, class 2: intermediate and late decline, and class 3: lowest and irregular) performed best in the posterior classification, 42.67% (n = 559), 21.45% (n = 281), 35.88% (n = 470) were classified as class 1, class 2, and class 3. In the heterogeneous linear mixed model, the regression coefficient per one allele dose of rs6859 - A risk allele was significantly associated with MMSE class 1 and class 2 memberships and related decline; Class 1 (-2.28, 95% CI: -4.05, -0.50, p < 0.05), Class 2 (-5.56, 95% CI: -9.61, -1.51, p < 0.01) and Class 3 (-0.37, 95% CI: -1.62, 0.87, p = 0.55). CONCLUSIONS This study found statistical evidence supporting the classification of three latent subclass groups representing complex MMSE trajectories in the ADNI cohort. The SNP rs6859 can be suggested as a candidate genetic predictor of variation in modeling MMSE trajectory, as well as for identifying latent classes with higher baseline MMSE. Functional studies may help further elucidate this relationship.

Abstract
Background Some human studies have identified infection with cytomegalovirus (CMV), a member of the alpha herpesvirus family, as a risk factor for Alzheimer's disease and related dementias (ADRD). To our knowledge, no studies have evaluated associations of CMV seropositivity with plasma biomarkers of ADRD risk in middle-aged adults. Objective In participants recruited for an exercise study, we evaluated cross-sectional associations of CMV seropositivity with: Aβ42/Aβ40 ratio, a low ratio suggestive of central nervous system Aβ accumulation; glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP), a measure of neuroinflammation; and neurofilament light (NfL), a measure of neurodegeneration. Methods Anti-CMV IgG was quantified by ELISA. Plasma ADRD biomarkers were quantified using the ultrasensitive SIMOA assay. We used linear regression to evaluate associations of CMV seropositivity with the ADRD biomarkers, adjusting for age, sex, and race (n = 303; Age = 55.7±9.2 years). For ADRD biomarkers significantly associated with CMV seropositivity, we evaluated continuous associations of anti-CMV IgG levels with the ADRD biomarkers, excluding CMV seronegative participants. Results 53% of participants were CMV seropositive. CMV seropositivity was associated with a lesser Aβ42/Aβ40 ratio (β=-3.02e-03 95% CI [-5.97e-03, -7.18e-05]; p = 0.045). In CMV seropositive participants, greater anti-CMV IgG levels were associated with a lesser Aβ42/Aβ40 ratio (β=-4.85e-05 95% CI[-8.45e-05, -1.25e-05]; p = 0.009). CMV seropositivity was not associated with plasma GFAP or NfL in adjusted analyses. Conclusions CMV seropositivity was associated with a lesser plasma Aβ42/Aβ40 ratio. This association may be direct and causally related to CMV neuro-cytotoxicity or may be indirect and mediated by inflammatory factors resulting from CMV infection burden and/or the immune response.

Abstract
In the realm of Alzheimer's disease, the most prevalent form of dementia, the impact of environmental factors has ignited intense curiosity due to its substantial burden on global health. Recent investigations have unveiled these environmental factors as key contributors, shedding new light on their profound influence. Notably, emerging evidence highlights the detrimental role of various environmental contaminants in the incidence and progression of Alzheimer's disease. These contaminants encompass a broad spectrum, including air pollutants laden with ozone, neurotoxic metals like lead, aluminum, manganese, and cadmium, pesticides with their insidious effects, and the ubiquitous presence of plastics and microplastics. By meticulously delving into the intricate web connecting environmental pollutants and this devastating neurological disorder, this comprehensive chapter takes a deep dive into their involvement as significant risk factors for Alzheimer's disease. Furthermore, it explores the underlying molecular mechanisms through which these contaminants exert their influence, aiming to unravel the complex interactions that drive the pathogenesis of the disease. Additionally, this chapter proposes potential strategies to mitigate the detrimental effects of these environmental contaminants on brain health, with the ultimate goal of restoring and preserving typical cognitive function. Through this comprehensive exploration, we aim to enhance our understanding of the multifaceted relationship between neurotoxins and Alzheimer's disease, providing a solid foundation for developing innovative in-vivo models and advancing our knowledge of the intricate pathological processes underlying this debilitating condition.
