  • Inhibiting glycolysis rescues memory impairment in an intellectual disability Gdi1-null mouse [Elektronski vir]
    D'Adamo, Patrizia ...
    Objectives GDI1 gene encodes for [alpha]GDI, a protein controlling the cycling of small GTPases, reputed to orchestrate vesicle trafficking. Mutations in human GDI1 are responsible for intellectual ... disability (ID). In mice with ablated Gdi1, a model of ID, impaired working and associative short-term memory was recorded. This cognitive phenotype worsens if the deletion of [alpha]GDI expression is restricted to neurons. However, whether astrocytes, key homeostasis providing neuroglial cells, supporting neurons via aerobic glycolysis, contribute to this cognitive impairment is unclear. Methods We carried out proteomic analysis and monitored [18F]-fluoro-2-deoxy-d-glucose uptake into brain slices of Gdi1 knockout and wild type control mice. d-Glucose utilization at single astrocyte level was measured by the Förster Resonance Energy Transfer (FRET)-based measurements of cytosolic cyclic AMP, d-glucose and L-lactate, evoked by agonists selective for noradrenaline and L-lactate receptors. To test the role of astrocyte-resident processes in disease phenotype, we generated an inducible Gdi1 knockout mouse carrying the Gdi1 deletion only in adult astrocytes and conducted behavioural tests. Results Proteomic analysis revealed significant changes in astrocyte-resident glycolytic enzymes. Imaging [18F]-fluoro-2-deoxy-d-glucose revealed an increased d-glucose uptake in Gdi1 knockout tissue versus wild type control mice, consistent with the facilitated d-glucose uptake determined by FRET measurements. In mice with Gdi1 deletion restricted to astrocytes, a selective and significant impairment in working memory was recorded, which was rescued by inhibiting glycolysis by 2-deoxy-d-glucose injection. Conclusions These results reveal a new astrocyte-based mechanism in neurodevelopmental disorders and open a novel therapeutic opportunity of targeting aerobic glycolysis, advocating a change in clinical practice.
