Abstract Although Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is characterized by distinct pathological changes, their precise impact on cortical functions are not well understood. Here we used TASTPM mice as an AD model and asked whether the development of neurodegenerative changes has an impact on the extracellular space (ECS) and neuronal excitability, in particular cortical spreading depolarization (CSD) which requires intact neuron and glial functions. We studied wildtype (WT) and TASTPM mice (3, 6, and 12 months old). TASTPM mice showed progressive proliferation of neocortical Amyloid-beta (Aβ) plaques between 3 and 12 months (more deposits in females than in males) and Aβ accumulation in cortical vessels. As plaques proliferated, neuroinflammatory microglial reaction (CD68, CD39 and Galectin-3) and astrogliosis (GFAP) developed progressively. The cortical ECS volume shrank significantly to about half the size of the WT. CSD in both WT and TASTPM mice showed considerable heterogeneity but did not correlate with the histological changes. However, CSDs were easier to elicit in TASTPM than in WT mice at 3 months, and also compared to older TASTPM mice. Moreover, TASTPM mice showed more hyperexcitability manifested as clonic-tonic behavior after sodium thiopental anesthesia. Thus, AD pathology was associated with abnormal hyperexcitability but did not homogenously alter CSD susceptibility. |
