Abstract

This study aimed to investigate the mechanism of the effect of TREM2 on cognitive function in autistic mice. TREM2 overexpression and knockdown viruses were given to autism spectrum disorder (ASD) mice and BV2 microglia cell line. To assess cognitive performance, all groups of mice took part in the open field, new object recognition, Morris water maze, and three-box social experiments. Double immunofluorescence labeling demonstrated co-localization of LC3II and NeuN. Proteins from the PI3K/Akt/mTOR pathway were identified. In vivo, behavior studies revealed that TREM2 could successfully improve ASD mice's social interaction and cognitive performance. Besides, we discovered that TREM2 could increase autophagy in ASD mice. In vitro, overexpressing TREM2 reduced the expression of PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway proteins, whereas knocking down TREM2 increased the expression of PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway proteins. In conclusion, TREM2 could inhibit PI3K/Akt/mTOR signaling pathway, enhance autophagy, and improve the social communication ability and cognitive function of ASD mice.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 10. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 07 June 2024.
All research outputs
#3,563,274
of 26,181,776 outputs
Outputs from Cellular and molecular biology
#12
of 826 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#28,623
of 213,568 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Cellular and molecular biology
#1
of 9 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 26,181,776 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done well and is in the 85th percentile: it's in the top 25% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 826 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 2.0. This one has done particularly well, scoring higher than 97% of its peers.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 213,568 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has done well, scoring higher than 86% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 9 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has scored higher than all of them
