Popis: | Neuroinflammation caused by microglial activation and consequent neurological impairment are prominent features of diabetes-associated cognitive impairment (DACI). Microglial lipophagy, a significant fraction of autophagy contributing to lipid homeostasis and inflammation, had mostly been ignored in DACI. Microglial lipid droplets (LDs) accumulation is a characteristic of aging, however, little is known about the pathological role of microglial lipophagy and LDs in DACI. Therefore, we hypothesized that microglial lipophagy could be an Achilles’s heel exploitable to develop effective strategies for DACI therapy. Here, starting with characterization of microglial accumulation of LDs in leptin receptor-deficient (db/db) mice and in high-fat diet and STZ (HFD/STZ) induced T2DM mice, as well as in high-glucose (HG)-treated mice BV2, human HMC3 and primary mice microglia, we revealed that HG-dampened lipophagy was responsible for LDs accumulation in microglia. Mechanistically, accumulated LDs colocalized with the microglial specific inflammatory amplifier TREM1 (triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells 1), resulting in the buildup of microglial TREM1, which in turn aggravates HG-induced lipophagy damage and subsequently promoted HG-induced neuroinflammatory cascades via NLRP3 (NLR family pyrin domain containing 3) inflammasome. Moreover, pharmacological blockade of TREM1 with LP17 in db/db mice and HFD/STZ mice inhibited accumulation of LDs and TREM1, reduced hippocampal neuronal inflammatory damage, and consequently improved cognitive functions. Taken together, these findings uncover a previously unappreciated mechanism of impaired lipophagy-induced TREM1 accumulation in microglia and neuroinflammation in DACI, suggesting its translational potential as an attractive therapeutic target for delaying diabetes-associated cognitive decline.
