Popis: Background Over 70 million Americans inherit the strongest genetic risk factor for Alzheimer's disease (AD), apolipoprotein E4 ( APOE4 ), but have no course for reducing their risk. The association of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) use with reduced risk of AD for APOE4 -carriers suggests that NSAIDs may be useful in AD prevention. Methods We identified phenotypes associated with APOE4 in APOE knock-in mice in order to define modifiable measures that correlate with risk of AD. Results APOE4 mouse brains showed altered post-translational modifications and biochemical distribution of APOE compared to APOE3 mice; these differences were also observed in brains of human APOE4 carriers. Two-month treatment with ibuprofen significantly altered the expression pattern of APOE in APOE4 mice to that of APOE3 mice; PPAR-γ agonist pioglitazone also had a significant effect. APOE4 mice also show deficits in dendritic spine density, and ibuprofen and pioglitazone significantly increased dendritic spine density. Conclusions We report new phenotypes associated with APOE4 in human and APOE knock-in mice and their mitigation with NSAID treatment, through COX-2 inhibition and PPAR-γ activation.
