The ε4 allele of apolipoprotein E (APOE4), which is a well established genetic risk factor for development of Alzheimer's disease (AD), is in genetic disequilibrium with the H2 allele of apolipoprotein C1 (APOC1), giving rise to increased expression of apoC-I. This raises the possibility that the H2 allele of APOC1, either alone or in combination with APOE4, provides a major risk factor for AD. In line herewith, we previously showed that mice overexpressing human APOC1 display impaired learning and memory functions. Here, we tested the hypothesis that the absence of Apoc1 expression in mice may improve memory functions. In contrast with our expectations, Apoc1(-/-) mice showed impaired hippocampal-dependent memory functions, as judged from their performance in the object recognition task (p < 0.001) as compared to their wild-type littermates. No gross changes in brain morphology or in brain sterol concentrations were detected in knockout mice compared to wild-type littermates. Apoc1 deficiency reduced the expression of ApoE mRNA (-25%, p < 0.05), but not ApoE protein levels. In line with a role for apoC-I in inflammatory processes, we observed significantly increased mRNA concentrations of the proinflammatory marker tumor necrosis factor α and oxidative stress related heme oxygenase 1 (Hmox1) in the absence of glial activation. In conclusion, the absence of ApoC-I results in impaired memory functions, which is, together with previous data, suggestive of an important, bell-shaped gene-dose dependent role for ApoC-I in appropriate brain functioning. The relative contributions of the H2 allele of APOC1 and/or APOE4 in the risk assessment in AD remain to be determined. 相似文献

Orthohantaviruses are zoonotic pathogens that play a significant role in public health. These viruses can cause haemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome in Eurasia. In the Republic of Kazakhstan, the first human cases were registered in the year 2000 in the West Kazakhstan region. Small mammals can be reservoirs of orthohantaviruses. Previous studies showed orthohantavirus antigens in wild-living small mammals in four districts of West Kazakhstan. Clinical studies suggested that there might be further regions with human orthohantavirus infections in Kazakhstan, but genetic data of orthohantaviruses in natural foci are limited. The aim of this study was to investigate small mammals for the presence of orthohantaviruses by molecular biological methods and to provide a phylogenetic characterization of the circulating strains in Kazakhstan. Small mammals were trapped at 19 sites in West Kazakhstan, four in Almaty region and at seven sites around Almaty city during all seasons of 2018 and 2019. Lung tissues of small mammals were homogenized and RNA was extracted. Orthohantavirus RT-PCR assays were applied for detection of partial S and L segment sequences. Results were compared to published fragments. In total, 621 small mammals from 11 species were analysed. Among the collected small mammals, 2.4% tested positive for orthohantavirus RNA, one sample from West Kazakhstan and 14 samples from Almaty region. None of the rodents caught in Almaty city were infected. Sequencing parts of the small (S) and large (L) segments specified Tula virus (TULV) in these two regions. Our data show that geographical distribution of TULV is more extended as previously thought. The detected sequences were found to be split in two distinct genetic clusters of TULV in West Kazakhstan and Almaty region. TULV was detected in the common vole (Microtus arvalis) and for the first time in two individuals of the forest dormouse (Dryomys nitedula), interpreted as a spill-over infection in Kazakhstan. 相似文献
