a(MESH:Astrocytes) increases p(MGI:Tfeb) View Subject | View Object

Transcriptomic analysis of these isolated astrocytes revealed an increase in TFEB tran- scripts, as well as transcripts of several of its well-known target genes in the rTg4510 relative to wild-type controls PubMed:30108137

In the rTg4510 mouse model of tauopathy (Ramsden et al., 2005; SantaCruz et al., 2005), gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA) of microarray data revealed a similar enrichment of TFEB’s tran- scriptional profile when comparing 4-mo-old transgenic mice with widespread NFTs to wild-type mice, indicating TFEB’s activation with tau pathology (Fig. 1 F).

Examining the protein levels in another tauopathy mouse model, hippocampal lysates from PS19 mice (Yoshiyama et al., 2007) at 10 mo of age showed increases in TFEB and lysosomal proteins LAMP1 and CTSD com- pared with wild-type mice (Fig. S1, G and H). PubMed:30108137

TFEB not only increased the proportion of cells taking up beads, but also increased the pro- portion of cells taking up multiple beads, suggesting an enhanced phagocytic capacity PubMed:30108137

p(MGI:Tfeb) increases a(HBP:"Tau fibrils") View Subject | View Object

Our results demonstrate a statistically significant increase of 12% in the uptake of pffs in TFEB transduced astrocytes relative to control at the 1-h time point, with a 22% relative increase in up- take in the TFEB transduced cells at 4 h PubMed:30108137

Flow cytometry revealed that Torin1 treatment of TFEB transduced astrocytes increased dye-conjugated pff uptake 63% relative to EGFP transduced controls as shown by median fluorescence in- tensity, while under basal conditions, the TFEB overexpressing astrocytes increased uptake just 18% relative to EGFP expressing controls (Fig. 2 K). Thus, TFEB enhances phagocytic pathways in astrocytes, in particular increasing the uptake of pffs. PubMed:30108137
