An arrayed CRISPR/Cas9 screen identifies mTORC1 as a regulator of lipid droplet accumulation in APOE E3 and APOE KO iPSC-derived microglia

2024-03-17

Abstract excerpt

Variants of the Apolipoprotein E (APOE) gene, particularly the E4 allele, are significantly associated with an increased risk of Alzheimer’s Disease and have been implicated in neuroinflammatory processes due to disrupted lipid metabolism. Lipid alterations can manifest in glial cells as an excessive buildup of lipids, potentially contributing to neuroinflammation. In this study, we observed a heightened lipid loa...
