Article Abstract
The low-density lipoprotein receptor (LDLR) is a major apolipoprotein receptor that regulates cholesterol homeostasis. LDLR deficiency is associated with cognitive impairment by the induction of synaptopathy in the hippocampus. Despite the close relationship between LDLR and neurodegenerative disorders, proteomics research for protein profiling in the LDLR knockout (KO) model remains insufficient. Therefore, understanding LDLR KO-mediated differential protein expression within the hippocampus is crucial for elucidating a role of LDLR in neurodegenerative disorders. In this study, we conducted first-time proteomic profiling of hippocampus tissue from LDLR KO mice using tandem mass tag (TMT)-based MS analysis. LDLR deficiency induces changes in proteins associated with the transport of diverse molecules, and activity of kinase and catalyst within the hippocampus. Additionally, significant alterations in the expression of components in the major synaptic pathways were found. Furthermore, these synaptic effects were verified using a data-independent acquisition (DIA)-based proteomic method. Our data will serve as a valuable resource for further studies to discover the molecular function of LDLR in neurodegenerative disorders.

7-Ketocholesterol (7-KC), a cytotoxic cholesterol oxidation product, drives oxidative stress, inflammation, and apoptosis in cardiovascular, neurodegenerative, and metabolic disorders. Current lipid-lowering agents, such as statins, do not eliminate pre-formed oxysterols, highlighting an unmet therapeutic need. Guggulsterone(GGS), a steroidal phytoconstituent from Commiphora mukul, exhibits dual-function potential by reducing 7-KC formation through antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and Nrf2-activating effects, while enhancing cholesterol efflux via LDLR and ABC transporters.

Apolipoprotein E (ApoE) has been implicated in neurodegenerative diseases; however, its function and underlying mechanisms in depression remain elusive. In this study, we employed chronic social defeat stress (CSDS) to establish a mouse model of depression and observed significantly reduced ApoE expression in the hippocampus. By leveraging ApoE knockout ( ) and knockdown (ApoE-KD) mouse models, we demonstrated that ApoE deficiency induced depression-like behaviors, which were closely associated with impaired GABAergic synaptic transmission and down-regulation of ApoE receptors and K-Cl cotransporter 2 (KCC2).

Hypercholesterolemia (Hch) is a risk factor for cerebrovascular and neurodegenerative diseases, manifesting with symptoms that vary depending on damage to specific brain regions. Hch triggers inflammatory responses and cell death. However, the progression of these processes in relation to the duration of Hch and the location of pathology in the central nervous system remains unclear.
