| Study Title | APOE modulates microglial immunometabolism in response to age, amyloid pathology, and inflammatory challenge (Part 2 of 3) |
| Study Summary | The E4 allele of Apolipoprotein E (APOE) is associated with both metabolic dysfunction and a heightened pro-inflammatory response – two findings that may be intrinsically linked through the concept of immunometabolism. Here, we combined bulk, single-cell, and spatial transcriptomics with cell-specific and spatially resolved metabolic analyses to systematically address the role of APOE across age, neuroinflammation, and AD pathology. RNAseq highlighted immunometabolic changes across the APOE4 glial transcriptome, specifically in subsets of metabolically distinct microglia enriched in the E4 brain during aging or following an inflammatory challenge. E4 microglia display increased Hif1α expression, a disrupted TCA cycle, and are inherently pro-glycolytic, while spatial transcriptomics and MALDI mass spectrometry imaging highlight an E4-specific response to amyloid that is characterized by widespread alterations in lipid metabolism. Taken together, our findings emphasize a central role for APOE in regulating microglial immunometabolism. |

Sample Preparation:
| Sampleprep ID: | SP002546 |
| Sampleprep Summary: | The supernatant fraction containing polar metabolites was thawed gently on ice and dried at 10-3 mbar using a CentriVap vacuum concentrator (LabConco) to evaporate methanol. The dried polar metabolite pellet was derivatized by a two-step methoxyamine protocol first by addition of 70µL methoxyamine HCl (Sigma-Aldrich #226904-5G) in pyridine (20 mg/mL; Sigma-Aldrich #TS25730) to each pellet followed by 90 min dry heat incubation at 30°C. Samples were then centrifuged at 20,000 x g for 10 minutes after which 50µL of each sample was transferred to an amber V-shaped glass chromatography vial (Agilent #5184-3554) containing 80µL N-methyl-trimethylsilyl-trifluoroacetamide (MSTFA; ThermoFisher #TS48915) and gently vortexed followed by 30 min dry heat incubation at 37°C. |
| Extraction Method: | 50% ice-cold methanol |
