Abstract

Neutrophil is a pathophysiological character in Alzheimer's disease. The pathogen for neutrophil activation in cerebral tissue is the accumulated amyloid protein. In our present study, neutrophils infiltrate into the cerebra in two models (transgenic model APP/PS1 and stereotactic injection model) and promote neuron apoptosis, releasing their cellular constituents, including mitochondria and mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA). We found that both Aβ1-42 and mtDNA could provoke neutrophil infiltration into the cerebra, and they had synergistic effects when they presented together. This neutrophillic neuroinflammation upregulates expressions of STING, NLRP3 and IL-1β. These inflammatory cytokines with mtDNA constitute the mtDNA-STING-NLRP3/IL-1β axis, which is the prerequisite for neutrophil infiltration. When any factor in this pathway is depleted, the migration of neutrophils into cerebral tissue is ceased, with neurons and cognitive function being protected. Thus, we provide a novel perspective to alleviate the progression of Alzheimer's disease.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 11. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 04 August 2023.
All research outputs
#3,311,483
of 25,271,884 outputs
Outputs from Cell Proliferation
#60
of 1,118 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#53,982
of 347,501 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Cell Proliferation
#3
of 18 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,271,884 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done well and is in the 86th percentile: it's in the top 25% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 1,118 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 4.0. This one has done particularly well, scoring higher than 94% of its peers.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 347,501 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has done well, scoring higher than 84% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 18 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has done well, scoring higher than 88% of its contemporaries.
